Uddin will spend a long time in prison anyway. They do not execute inmates immediately. Then there is a good chance of HM commuting the sentence to life on one of his birthdays when he is nice to prisoners.

It is owned by Chinese so cannot upset Thailand's sponsor. (From memory in the original article, there was only one Thai that was injured. All of the others were imports.)

Thai Virologist Dismisses Norovirus Outbreak 'Fake News' He should know - he is an expert at that.

Wishing you all good luck in your quest.

There used to be a big one in Chaweng but it was told to close down. Sorry, I do not know of others. A bit like the 7/11's and Tops Daily used to sell alcohol 24/7 - they have been told to follow the legal hours (for now).

Samui is at maximum number of flights now - 50 in and 50 out. First flight out at 06.45. And the roads are a battleground. Allow extra time for journeys. The road from Choengmon to departures at the airport is still flooded. Almost knee deep. I had to push the bike through the last 10 metres. Soon dried out though. Only large 4 x 4 trucks were getting through. (And one crazy Brit on a bike.)

I loved the UK when I lived there and I am proud to be British. But my desire to return diminishes day by day. I reckon that in a couple of years time, that desire will go negative. Labour seems to rely on the immigrant vote to get in and to stay in power. Things are not likely to improve.

I usually pay by CC when I order and I have no trouble with refunds. Recently I ordered COD - for some reason, order number 2 out of 3 had 'there was a problem with your credit card - please use an alternative method of payment'. Ordered 10 items COD. I knew before opening it that it was wrong weight, wrong size - they only sent one item. Still waiting for the refund after three weeks. I never order from overseas and I will never use COD again. 100% failure rate.

Un-be-liev-able. 👎

I have lost count of the number of times now that this has been said. Yet - they are still in gaol. One should not believe illegal military governments.

The lawyers love it when the 'powers that be' say that we are going to clamp down on Thai nominees. People go rushing to the lawyers' offices and the lawyers send out big bills. It has happened every 6-8 years here on Samui.

OK My bad memory. Nite Hunter is 89 Baht. 109 baht is Orion 'The Dark' - 5%

Back to the OP. I give 1,000 baht each in an envelope with Thank You written in Thai on the front. This is for the people that support my business but are not direct employees. They get the same at Singkhran.

I have him on ignore - he's just a troll. Just look at his dumb OP's. One of many newbies who have joined since April this year.

Showing your true colours?

Update: It is a money grab. My Thai business partner was contacted by a guest the other night 'Help - paper stuck to my windscreen and the car is clamped' so she went to Fisherman's to sort it out. She managed to get the car released. She said that there were about 15-20 cars clamped and a load of motorbikes chained together. At 500 baht a pop that is not bad for one night's work. I said that the local Thais must be pxssed off about this and she replied 'Oh no. Thais not have to pay.'

No mention of the gang warfare (locals) or homeless people (locals).

Not quite true. My IDP (Thai) has six pages of different languages plus Thai and English. I had to get one when renting a car in Portugal. They said that I needed an IDP because I was British even though my Thai driving licence has been fine in many other countries including the UK. I had to show the IDP before they would hand over the car. This was in 2019.

Yes - Not a bad one at all. It is in my collection.

The laws make craft beer brewing in Thailand almost impossible. All set up by the Big Boys Beer cartel and financial support for the government. A few good beers coming from the competition. Snowy, MM32, Dunkel, Tawandang etc. Then there are the Laos brewed 'Thai' beers - Maha Makhon.

I think it was just over the 100 baht. (109ish?). I do not usually pay much more than that for a beer. As you say- the Dunkel is quite good (54 baht) and Tops has some Tawandang IPA in a large can at 60 baht. 54 baht for a small can. The Tawangang is 5.5%. (Fourth shelf in my previous photo.) After drinking cheap lagers here for 24 years, I could only manage 2 cans of the Nite Hunter before I started to feel the hit - big time.

Large can only - about 109 baht from memory - Tops and Tops Daily.

Try Nite Hunter IPA. 6.8% Third shelf - 3rd from the right. Very tasty but STRONG.

No surprise really. Two young lads looking for a couple of hot girls to have some fun with. What could possibly go wrong.

The accident happened whilst he was turning. That does not indicate a 'right of way'. He should wait until the road was clear. Nowhere does the article or the truck driver say that the bike was travelling in an illegal direction.
