  1. And the pro Palestinian lemmings try and convince us that this is all the fault of the Israelis. I hope that all hostages are released soon. They did absolutely northing to deserve what the Hamas murderers have done to them.
  2. Blah, blah, blah, blah. There - fixed it. We all know that nothing will change.
  3. Thitima must be pretty desperate to have attempted this half hearted try at a robbery. Obviously not a seasoned criminal.
  4. Lots of 'red' and fires on the map for Cambodia today. Siam Reap 165 (unhealthy). Mabybe you need to clean those rose tinted glasses. https://www.iqair.com/air-quality-map?lat=9.53567&lng=99.93567&zoomLevel=10
  5. And Burma, and Vietnam, and Singapore....
  6. Great publicity. Well done PR team. The punishments are laughable and there is zero policing so nothing will change.
  7. Great (not). So now the path is clear for motorbikes to ride on. 🏍️ Negotiating ones way around the vendors was one of the fun things in Bangkok. Their stalls hid the cracks and broken paving slabs.
  8. Great story with a happy ending. Well done young lady.
  9. I agree - Thailand post were very good. I say were - since the lovely Wuhan Flu struck, we have not had a postman. EMS and couriers deliver, but no regular post for years now.
  10. So each tourist contributed more then one billion GBP? Interesting. We are not seeing many Chinese tourists these days where I am on Samui. Lots more from the Middle East, India and the USA.
  11. Got to pay for those minimum wage increases somehow.
  12. But that is normal for a minor altercation according to the law.
  13. Sadly, that is not the dumbest thing that I have seen. My late wife loved elephants and anything to do with them. 🐘 She adopted some in Kenya. I had to travel to Sri Lanka regularly and she would always accompany me. Elephants. We were travelling around the country one day and she saw an elephant sanctuary - stop here! The handlers asked my wife if she wanted a massage - by an elephant. NO! I said. YES she said and she lay on the floor. Elephant walked up to her and rubbed her stomach with its foot. That was it thank God. We had quite a long discussion after that one.
  14. I have three accounts with Krungsri (Bank of Ayudhya) and all receive interest. As others have said, interest rates in Thailand are not great.
  15. or hungry. A few folk get injured here where they still do elephant trekking. The tourist buys a bunch of bananas, offers the elephant one and puts the rest behind their back. The elephant is not a dumb animal. It swipes the tourist with its trunk to knock the bunch of bananas out of their hand. The tourist invariably is injured.
  16. I hope that the driver had the correct insurance for driving in Thailand.
  17. I love my shark. Modular - full face, just visor or totally open. Depends on the weather/traffic.
  18. Well done to the two nephews for trying to help a lady in distress. Sad that their uncle stabbed them both.
  19. Maybe not the best occupation for a guy who suffers from blackouts?
  20. Not many condo's here. I only know of one. (Replay) Definitely come and stay for a while and have a good look around. Do not only look at Chewang, Lamai and Fisherman's village. They are the expensive areas with lots of tourists. Flights can be expensive in high season, but if you live here, you can apply for a Resident's card from Bangkok Airways. Bolt and InDrive are here but Grab is more popular.
  21. Khaosodenglish states that they have kissed and made up. Both the driver and the Saudi were fined 500 baht. (The driver started it.)
  22. You missed out the bit where it was Palestinians who voted Hamas into power - whose mandate is to kill all Jews.
