Electric-shock drowning happens when an electric current, typically low-level AC current from boats, docks, or lights, "escapes" and shocks nearby swimmers. The shock paralyzes them, so they can’t swim or help themselves.

My guess is thats what they will find , no other logical reason , if not killed and drowning two people is not an easy method to kill someone 

I ve used SCB twice takes about two weeks real easy to deal with . You ll get a crappy rate the first three years , but after three you go back and they ll give you a much better rate .

The DJI Spark only has a take-off weight of 300 grams, nothing like the weight of 2kg..

As does the Phantom 4 1380 grams with battery and props 

I ve lived in Hangdong 8 years . Minus 2 months I moved to Hua Hin . Couldnt get back here fast enough. Live not far from the police station and hospital . No plane noise , plenty of places to eat . Traffic no different from anywhere else .

I did all the paperwork 14 years ago . Didnt use a lawyer or agent . I did join Visa Journey and picked up some help there . Wife stayed 6 years in the states then we came back to Thailand .

Thats where the misconception is . We ve been told registration and a lic was needed on any drone with a camera . Registration and lic which requires more forms and insurance even if its just for your own pleasure . Now i hope Im wrong .

Only drones with a camera . There are conflicting stories that drone less than 2 kilos dont need to be registered . But CAAT says they do . Also required now is 1 million baht insurance . Fine for non compliance is 5 years in jail or 100,000 baht fine . Thus far only know of 1 person being fined and told he was caught 3 times before they tagged him .

The article is a little confusing. It says it was a stroke caused by a DVT clot moving. Then it says the hospital diagnosis was a brain bleed. Both are strokes but the treatment is exactly the opposite. Taking aspirin when you have a clot will potentially save you. When you have a brain bleed it will certainly kill you.

Yes a little confusing . I would assume the clot broke and she had blockage in the brain that caused a stroke ..

My first trip to Thailand from the states on the ride home I took two sleeping pills . Slept most of the flight . Midway to the US I felt like I had a cramp in my leg.. Ask the stewardess for ice . By the time I got home the pain was pretty bad . Next morning I went to work hardly able to walk . Went to my doctor they sent me for a ultra sound . They said no clot seen . I took the device from the tech and put it over the spot . Then they saw it . Stubborn and stupid I refused to be admitted . Finally doctor agreed to give me a script for heparin and I promised to stay immobile.  Nurse came everyday check my blood . 2 weeks on the couch being waited on . I was very lucky . Now I m on warfarin daily . Never had an issue since . But I was very lucky . Now if I fly I get up every hour and walk and drink lots of water . DVT is a silent killer .

There's really nothing unusual of his shoes being off . My guess is he was struck by something . More often than not a person being struck will be found quite a far distance from there shoes .  I ve see people that have come out of fully laced and tied boots in accidents . 

Adopt a snake .... 

Things to be aware of . Some areas have frequent water outages and can go days without water . Some areas flood during rainy season . A major problem in Hua Hin are the weekend party houses if you live near one prepare to have some sleepless nights . The beaches are nice foods good . My wife and I lasted three months down there then moved back to Chiang Mai. Hua Hin also has an abundance of soi dogs .

Nobody seems to be querying the obvious - and while I am in agreement with all of you about the treatment of paedophiles how did the Thai police find out about this unless they are snooping on people on their internet use?

 

I mean - how private are my emails to my bank or accountants, or children, or anyone? Are my internet movements tracked secretly?

 

Am I paranoiac? 

 

Well, I use geo-location block and a VPN habitually as I value my privacy. Not that I do anything wrong but it's like the feeling of being violated when you come home after a burglary to find the thieves have gone through your underwear drawer and your wife's underwear.

Very easy , if he transmitted a picture or downloaded one off the internet your taggeg . All files have a hash value . Its just like dna no two files are alike . The hash value of known child porn is then entered into a data base which monitors the internet world wide . When you dowload one or upload your got . I m all for it i chased these bastards for many years . You call it snooping i call it excellent police work . Fry his ass.

Some things will never change . Trash and soi dogs and burning ..

The problem in Hua Hin is far out of control . Spay and neuter is fine .But the stray dog issue there is going to call for a different approach to be effective . Those that live there know what i mean . Between the stray dogs and the trash dumps on nearly every empty lot . My time in Hua Hin was less than two months .

So far tried quite a few places , best for me thus far is Passport Cafe . Great burgers and excellent grilled pork chops . Prices are very reasonable . Burgers taste like there cooked in your own back yard . I was very impressed . Right across from Tropical Hills ....

Why do you want it at all, are you a drugs dealer?

I recently had this on our new City and have no complaints. Select your preference on % .

I had darker around the cab and lighter on the front.

Did the dealership put it on before you purchased it ? They said 60% on the sides 40 % on the front ...

I just ordered a Honda city from the dealer here in Hua Hin . The subject of window tinting came up and was offered free . The brand wont be 3 m they said Technico brand . Just wondering if anyone had any first hand knowlege before I let them do it.  Would I be better off taking a discount and having it done myself or just let them do it . If I have it dont myself whats the best type and percentage of tint to use . ? And where is a good place to have it done here ?

Thanks .....

Its not against the law , much to my sadness I had to put my dog to rest just last week after 13 years of daily companionship . Our vet was very nice I was right there holding her when they did it . They kept her a few hours after and washed her and dressed her in the shirt she had come in with and placed her in a box for me ...
