Have a go heroes often end up deceased !!! Then again back in UK in the early 80's my mates father was an ex para in his early 70's ( work out the dates ) who kept himself in good shape. I watched one night as he picked up a local 20 something hard nut by the neck, with one hand and shook him like a rag doll.

We are not "farang". We are westerners, Europeans, English, etc. not some guttural word used by the Thais to look down on us and point the finger. And yes, I am very aware of where the word originates but after living in Thailand for over a decade, I also know exactly how it is used, not as a curiosity as you would have it explained but as a means of bad mouthing people who are not Asian, not Thai and from the aforementioned countries and areas. Personally I care less if other or myself are called farang. I word doesnot upset me sorry. I used to be called gringo years ago in Mexico that meant nothing to me also. It is only offensive if you chose to make it offensive. My choice is it is not offensive. To put it in simple terms When in Rome be a Roman. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the assault with a deadly weapon, should be charged and dealt with by the courts whether or not the victim presses charges... What next, murders getting away with murder because the victims can not press charges. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's admirable but back in the 80s mindless stabbings were not the norm. Even if the young lad had come out on top, it probably would've just ended with a black eye or 2 :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She had been to the massage shop to say hello to one of her friends from Chaiyapum who works there. John had been off visiting a friend of his (who owns a bar in Koh Samui) and returned to find that his GFs (fiancee actually) phone had gone missing. Hope that's cleared everything up for you. He is 66 and she is 29. I am sure this wedding is for love and they will live happily ever after...as long as he doesn't live to long. Nice job on catching the thief though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
