It will be a great day when this is extended to Europeans, Brits, OZ, NZ, and the Americas but hopefully it will be for 90 days anytime during the year.

Bangkok Pattana out in Bangna uses a UK curriculum. It has been in Bangkok for over 30 years. There are others as well, and I think some are good, but I'm more familiar with Bangkok Pattana.

I did something similar to this but only slightly different. The kids were mine so they were luk krung. They attended very good Thai schools in Bangkok so they were academically ok with moving to the USA. They were almost 16 & 14 at the time and entered the 10th and 8th grades upon arrival in the USA. Their English was very good and had no accent. They had both US & Thai citizenship so there weren't any problems in that area. They adjusted very well to life in the USA and both completed university and have very good careers in IT and finance. If you cannot move right away to the UK then one of the international schools in Bangkok might be another option. You'll probably want to go with one that has a UK curriculum. Definitely do your research on that as some are very good and others just so-so.

First off, the detained man should have been handcuffed with his hands behind his back. Then he should have been placed in a rear seat diagonally from the driver and placed in a seatbelt. As was shown above you need a police transport vehicle with a shield/wire mesh separating the front seats from the row behind the driver. The area where the detained person sits also needs to be made of hard plastic for a variety of reasons. Next, why are they transporting the detained person's mother? She should find her own way to wherever they are going. I can only speculate as to why she was being transported so I won't go into that. Basic LE principles seem to be lacking in the RTP which would have saved this officers life, injuries to others, and the damage to the police vehicle.

150 baht seems a fair price. The question is how long will it be until the girl is haranguing you for another drink?

I'm surprised she hasn't gone to certain area of Phuket where there is a demand for women like her from a group of tourists that are interested in farang women. She would solve her financial difficulties very quickly.

Is this good news or bad news?

Israel will not use their nuclear weapons. They know that in doing so a whole host of other nuclear weapons would be simultaneously launched and many countries in that region would be erased from the face of the earth.

The Pattaya Sports Club used to have a group of people that bowled on a weekly basis. I believe that it was a bowling league. You can check their website to see if the group is still going.

It would be great if the resistance forces had some heavier weapons to shoot down one or more of those Migs.

It's a sad state of affairs when the USA can only come up with these two old geriatrics to lead one of the most powerful nations in the world.

Maybe that is how you met your Thai wife, and that's fine, but I met my Thai wife back in the 80's when she was a graduate student in my home country. I had never been to Thailand until after we married.

Not really. In the world view this is just a minor blip on the radar.

I always check the chit entering my bin cup after it is placed there. It does two things. It lets me keep a running total of my bill and lets the wait staff know I'm checking the bill every time a drink is served.

Younger working expat farangs have been dating and marrying university educated middle class Thai women since the 80's and probably before.
