Pit bull attack in Bangkok market sparks safety concerns
Mason45 replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
Who in their right mind would have a pit bull terrier as a pet? There's only one way to fix a pit bull and that's a lead weight in the left ear. It should be illegal to own a pit bull as it is in other countries and then the owners can face serious consequences.- 118 replies

Tourist Boat Crew Member's Shocking Act Sparks Outrage in Thailand

He was just feeding the fish. -
If Trump can't stand the heat in a major debate then how will he handle the heat when confronted by the big boys from around the World.

I was having breakfast at around 8.30 am this morning. I was facing the rear window in my 4th floor condo when an enormous flame flashed across my eyes with an equally enormous explosion. So I looked out of the window and a major power cable was burning fiercely near the under cover car park at ground level. It didn't take long for 20 odd people to arrive on the scene with their cameras going non stop and of course the mandatory finger pointing. The bystanders didn't live in any of the condos as all the power was off, including the elevators. It took 15 minutes for the security to arrive with an extinguisher to put out the flames. Maybe 30-40 minutes after the explosion the PEA emergency crew arrived and total power was restored in about 40 minutes. Thanks guys for a job well done.

I know the area well. Photisan is rather narrow with double lines as you can see in the pic. Cars are parked either side which makes it almost impossible not to drive with some part over the double lines. Of course the speed of lunatics on motor bikes is a another major factor. I've given up walking along Soi Photisan to go to the market. I now prefer walking along Naklua Soi 27 and go to the market the back way. Both ways are 20 minutes from where I live. So now prefer the safest way.

Sorry mate my mistake. It's ARS and it gave them the full arse.

Firstly thanks for that info, I'll give Singha 89 a try. Where can Singha 89 be purchased in Pattaya, preferably not to far from the Naklua Road area.

I had an serious ant problem for several months, they were even in my bed. After trying several things I bought RS from Lazada. In the space of one hour the ants were gone and they haven't been since, going on 9 months ago.

I walk 90 minutes at day break every morning.

Thaksin Labels Pheu Thai Dissolution Lawsuit ‘Baloney’
Mason45 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News Headlines
How can anyone prove that Thaksin is meddling in Thai politics. He can make demands in private which he probably does. The difference with Move Forward was that the MFP did everything in the open. -

May I add, where do you see these farangs carry on as you suggested. I drive every day and I walk 2 hours daily. Of course I see people lose their cool at times but it's only minimal. Also you must have extra good hearing as most cars here have the air con going with the windows closed. -

I haven't been back to Australia for 10 years, so maybe road rage is out of control there. If a road rage incident comes to a confrontation in Australia are concealed weapons used to cause grievous bodily harm? If the Polish guy did in fact die then the Thai brat would've been looking at a murder wrap. -

So what you're saying is the action the Thai guy took was appropriate for this situation. Using a concealed weapon that caused serious bodily harm is a very serious offense. That nullifies people playing the blame game -
I've been trying to reduce my weight. I was going ok for awhile cutting back on carbs by not eating bread, pasta, rice, crisps and spuds. I seem to have come to a dead end. The only other thing I can cut back on now is the grog. So does any body have any info in regards to carbs in Thai beers. I know that San Miguel light is preferred by many dieters but it's not exactly my desired taste.

The BIB's had no interest as there would be nothing in it for them. In most countries when the cavalry arrived the cops would've arrested all of them. Taken them back to the cop shop, given them a right roughing up and in no time they would've squealed their guts out. Irrespective whether the farang wanted to fight or not is petty compared to a person carrying a concealed weapon and using it to cause serious bodily harm. If apprehended the perpetrator is looking at serious jail time. -

As I've visited Glasgow four times, the place where I was born, I know exactly what you're referring to. Thankfully my family migrated to Australia when I was 5 years old. -

I've been in their company up north when they're drinking in a huddle full of high octane booze and maybe drugs when a fight breaks out amongst themselves. It's normally the mob attacking one person. I must say though as I first went there 22 years ago they have always treated me ok. -
Even speed humps don't work here because the speed humps only cover half the round. So people swerve to the wrong side of the road at the last minute so they don't have to reduce speed. Another Thai safety innovation.

Try forcing a potato up the exhaust.

The thing that gets me is I've been living in Thailand for the past 24 years. I've been married for 22 of those years. I've been very supportive of my wife, her 2 daughters, one with a partner and her unemployable brother who's since gone to Buddha. I can handle that but what I can't handle is being treated like a tourist who's just using Thailand as a cheap holiday destination. When I go back to my house on the outskirts of Bangkok I can't believe the difference in the cost of living. It just goes to show that everyone living in Pattaya is treated like a tourist irrespective how long you've lived there,

This issue has received far more discussion than it actually deserves. The key point is why was the teenager carrying a concealed weapon in the first place. If that's ok with some let's all get tooled up. -
