    2 out of 2 for the victim blaming.

    Too late. The banks themselves are loan sharks. That one example where the lady checked her bank balance and the bank had already deducted 6,000 baht.

    He comes and goes whenever he wants. Easy when you have a private jet. Also, your daddy's rich and you ma is good lookin. (Thanks to Ella Fitzgerald and others.) Statute of limitations on the last case (reckless driving causing death) runs out 2027.

    Corporal punishment was normal in the 50's and 60's. Most of us survived and grew up to be responsible parents and adults. Unfortunately, the few rotten apples caused the laws to be changed and now we have an out of control, woke society that does not understand discipline or respect. Those rotten apples will always exist regardless of the law. They are still around.

    My money is the second sentence happening before the first one. See you in Nana and we can give alms to the poor folk outside on the pavements.

    So, no major storm but increased rainfall. That's a relief.

    A leader, who against all of the odds, has kept one of the world's largest and most aggressive armies at bay for a lot longer than many other leaders would have. Yes, I would call him a world leader. Your distraction re a corrupt country is just that. A distraction. There are very few countries that are not corrupt. They just hide better than Ukraine does. eg USA, Russia, China and so on

    Yeah. Shame it probably saved lives.

    Thailand - hub of drug smugglers.

    What the effing heck!!! A teacher, frequently drunk at school and sometimes armed!!! A few people need to loose their jobs over this one.

    As long as Boeing were not involved in the software design, testing or production - fine by me.

    Any chance of extending the Statute of Limitations to the RB policeman killer? Thought not.
  13. Tropicalevo
    Yes. The UK is much more civilised. They only use knives and bottles there..... sometimes.

    A very sad state of affairs. The government keeps on saying 'everything will be OK'. The people say 'it happens almost every year'. And nothing is done about it. How about building some dykes? Lots of them.Better than the Belt and Braces Road for China, airports in areas where tourists do not want to go and so on.

    So you know the lady? I see nothing in the article that says that she was a lesbian. PS Not all women with short hair are lesbians. My wife had short hair all of our married life and she definitely was not a lesbian.

    Paradise for me is :- Warm climate Cold beers 24/7 Spicy food Pretty girls No debts or mortgage Good friends and a great view every day with my beautiful wife next to me. Wait a minute....... Sadly, wifey passed away 8 years ago. Still 7 out of 8 ain't bad.

    I do not have a landlord. Commercial rates are higher than domestic rates depending upon a number of factors. The PEA do not provide electricity to my property. You seem to be trying to compare apples with durians.
  18. Tropicalevo
    No one. Standard rate for many private developments here is 7 - 8 baht. Plus VAT, plus FT - somewhere between 9 - 10 baht a unit depending on the FT. PEA will not supply inside most private developments as the cables are all installed underground. Higher maintenance fees. The highest price that I know of was a nearby development that was charging 29 baht per unit. Now THAT was a rip off.
  19. Tropicalevo
    It was 50 baht back in 2000. And that was with a receipt. It is obviously more now.
  20. Tropicalevo
    That is one sick SOB.
  21. Tropicalevo
    Crikey. 24 years of living here and the police cop someone at last for driving dangerously. They could catch someone every day here on that one. However, he did not get a fine for his driving. The fine was for not telling the LTO about the change of colour of the car. Amazing Thailand.
  22. Tropicalevo
    So the poor wee lass was crying and in pain for almost 24 hours?
  23. Tropicalevo
    Foreigner does not mean farang. Not all foreigners are farangs. Other Asians are foreign as well.
  24. Tropicalevo
    Come on government. It is not as if this was unexpected.
  25. Tropicalevo
    And the poor old lady next door to me does not have a phone. She is not a very happy bunny.
