Maybe the Scotsman bought a very expensive condo/house and thought he'd have a nice quiet retirement...then next door becomes a garage with constant noise for hours on end each day and he's a bit upset ?

Then he could have send his expensive lawyer to the noise makers and get it sorted.

Other brits complained to a tour operator after a beach holiday that there were small sized fish in the ocean scaring their kids and they demand compensation...

I think he built a house, and then some sort of karaoke opened next door, then he called the police and lost some money too.. At least this is what i understood

Disgusting bunch of drunken sexpats who think their quid can let them misbehave....throw them out of the country...that's all what they deserve....obviously back in their homelands such uncouth idiots are insignificant nobodys....

The Englishman is talking quite reasonably ....

I tend to agree with some others here who think that the 'Englishman' is in fact South African. His accent certainly sounds like that. 

 

Of course I agree with you, Jeremy50, that that particular guy is speaking in a more reasonable manner than the Scotsman. My experience (and I think that of many of us) is that generally speaking one will get a much more pleasant living experience in Thailand if one smiles at, and is pleasant towards, the Thais who surround one. On the whole, I do find the Thais very helpful people; on the other hand, they can be extremely selfish - so we don't know how much that Scots guy has had to put up with. If we knew more, it might provide him with mitigating circumstances. On the other hand - the Thai boss of that garage does seem to be a sensible and calm and reasonable guy. So on balance - I suspect that the Scots chap went dangerously over the top and gave a perfect example of how NOT to behave when interacting with Thais.

Is it just me? We do not use the word "topless" for men. Ever. 

 

They are misusing the word here. It is really a juicy, exciting word when used properly.

That's a very true point, Utalkin2me: we don't ever actually use the word 'topless' with reference to men. It is always (in my experience) used of women (particularly women on a beach). If a guy is not wearing a shirt, we tend to say he is 'bare-chested'.

 

And now someone will find a reference to 'topless men' and prove me wrong - ha ha!

Yeah, I do not have a handle on the "British Dialect" or whatever you would call it. But yes, nobody ever says "hey check out that topless dude over there" in the states. Lol.

[SpeakeasyThai]

Thais have very little respect for others when it comes to making noise. No concept of noise pollution. 

 

No concept of any pollution for that matter.

 

 

As for the Jock knockers that have posted their numerous love letters. You're nothing but ignorant.

I agree, very stupid, an embarrassment to the good, mostly sober-living Scots nation.

Byre's road is rather nice these days.

You actually know where byres road is?

He is correct despite your grumblings. You are not allowed to make a noise at night, it is illegal and if it's reported to the local authorities they will act.

No. Murder is pre meditated.

This would be manslaughter, ie non premeditated, and i agree, they are lucky.

The one guy talks quite reasonably and polite, the Scot is just a complete <deleted>.

Perhaps we shall soon see headlines such as: 'Fully dressed farangs go viral after walking down a street in Pattaya, '

How do you tell when a plane full of British tourists has landed? A selection of complaints from travellers from the UK

SOURCE: ASSOCIATION FOR BRITISH TRAVEL AGENTS, THOMAS COOK

 

* We bought Ray-Ban sunglasses for five euros ($9) from a street trader, only to find out they were fake.

* The brochure stated: "No hairdressers at the accommodation." We're trainee hairdressers ? will we be OK staying here?

* There are too many Spanish people. The receptionist speaks Spanish. The food is Spanish. Too many foreigners.

* We found the sand was not like the sand in the brochure. Your brochure shows the sand as yellow but it was white.

* We had to queue outside with no air-conditioning.

* I think it should be explained in the brochure that the local store does not sell proper biscuits like custard creams or ginger nuts.

* It's lazy of the local shopkeepers to close in the afternoons. I often needed to buy things during "siesta" time ? this should be banned.

* I was bitten by a mosquito ? no one said they could bite.

* We booked an excursion to a water park but no one told us we had to bring our swimming costumes and towels.

I must gripe that the title is misleadingly disappointing.   The word topless is to my understanding used to refer to a woman not wearing a top whilst a man is referred to as "shirtless".

 

Baited click and fail.....(sigh)

How dare farang tell Thai people to stop making noise and to keep themselves to allowed business hours?

How dare they!

And then no shirt also.

How dare they?

 

And of course all Thai people agree with the Thai workers.

Farang are animals, Thai people are not.

West end near the uni. I lived in Glasgow for four years.

This is a non-issue in rural Thailand, and for that matter, within the sub-districts of most cities.  Thai men walk around without their shirts on.  Trying to say they don't and that men, especially farang men, without shirts is an affront to Thai culture is utter and complete nonsense.

they did but it seems scotty boy wanted to speak direct to chakthip himself not some lowly local officers trying to calm a disturbance seemingly created by a pissed up aggressive screaming knob

Noisy? I had the volume on my Mac turned up to full and could not hear a thing. Very muted for a story on noise.

Someone better tell them that Thailand isn't in their Commonwealth.

The rule is Thai law and Thai legislation regarding work in such cirumstances and locations. Good on the Brits for defending their rights and the rights of their Yjai neighbours.

This is freaking unbelievable, one can only hope that they go home soon.

Quite right, they should appreciate ear-splitting noise from morning till night and through the night if necessary. Why should Thais act like civilised human beings for falang and for each other.

Also why should falang be driven insane by it when all they expect is a little consideration from fellow adults, even though those same adults have the brains of five year olds.

Don't they know, this is Thailand is the land of noise? Crazy.

Did you watch the video ?

Nobody likes noise, including most Thais i know, but these 2 men acted like they own the place.

If the place where you live is too noisy, why don't you relocate ?
