what's a tinnie? I am from Germany and I am curious as a mouse in springtime

They meant Australian not Austrian, they get the two mixed up despite one having mountains and the other having kangaroos.

You'll be glad you know you can stay, drink, play all kinds of games, hang out with the girls and even engage in other touristy activities, if you so choose, without all this nonsense. For much lower cost too.

 

We won't even PRETEND to be a world class destination as Thailand likes to do..

 

Lol

 

Drop me a line when you are here, Negros Occidental is a great place. 

So why not go into a bar. Pay the bar fine. Get a price for long time , and then put the whores in jail for one or two years. Stop the real problem . Throw the sexpats in jail also for paying for sex. How hard would that be. Other countries do it. This silly show of cleaning up small games fools no one.

Why? That is sanook! As good as the spaghetti-harvest of the BBC on another 1st of April, decades ago! :sleep:

It is Aussie slang for a Beer can,  food and drink containers made of metal or tin "a tinnie"

 

I prefer my beer from small glass bottles known as "stubbies".

 

BTW, Aussies just pictures not my choice of beer.

Streuth m8, do you have a pic of a cold Kalgooley ( spell check please )  Stout. I drank it in Roebourne in 1971 , does it still exist  ( the beer not Roebourne )

Next on our list will be loose change in your pocket.

Heads or tails (King or Palace ) will be next

They have lost their marbles which under the circumstances is just as well

I wonder what would be allowed as replacements for the recently banned games.

Pass the parcel, or Snakes ‘n’ ladders. Surely they would be ok!

please stop posting pictures of that police captain. i think i'm falling in love with her 555

Seems many posters can't connect the dots as well! 55555

If you really want Pattaya to be a family resort you need clean up your filthy beaches and better garbish collection stop corruption on the police force closing the beerbars and stop the  prostitution demolition of walking street and making the roads safe from high speed car's and motorbikes and kill all your soi dogs 

It will probably never happen

It's certainly fooled you though.

I managed to connect 3 on the weekend, but, sadly, ran out of money.

'...a hotbed of Connect 4 activity...'  What the heck?  Let me check the calendar.....   

 

:saai:

Thailand is a Dadaist state. Nothing makes sense but the powers that be can have their daily brainfart with caviar and champagne. As for the increase in tourists: sure. Tourists are ignorant. They have no idea. They even think the food is "healthy" and the busses are safe. 555

A Tinny is Australian slang for a beer so this guy isn't Austrian he is a Aussie 

As for connect 4 why would you use it a gambling tool how sad if you are so addicted to a child's game

Reference to Tiddly Winks is another deadly game that could be construed as racist besides the odd gamble of sweets ..................... :passifier:

Certainly no shortage of idiots around, and this is only the first comment on the thread.

The girls will be badly affected by this - they always win!

If you think controlling connect four is extreme - wait until they make all patrons wear mittens to stop them playing rock - paper - scissors......

What amuses me, is that you cant see that his outrage is itself ironic.

 

Thai visa, where even the cynics are gullible <deleted>.

 

The whole forum should just uplug and save yourselves the embarrassment.
