I would have thought we could have a TAT-type spin on this: Their low prices have brought the house down!

Surprised they have named the store with all the paranoia about defamation here.

Perhaps Tesco will come down on them like a ton of bricks - well, like a box of ceiling tiles anyway.

i bet the ceiling collapse was not enough to stop the devil spawned Tesco Radio from blasting its mindless garbage.

Always happy to see an incident in Phuket, even something as innocuous as some ceiling tiles falling, can brighten up the day of our avid readers in the North and North Eastern Provinces.

It probably brightened up the day for Phuket readers too, but only because they could see the daylight through the missing ceiling tiles.

Yes, every day I jump on the forum and open up the Issan forum to catch up on events that are currently buzzing in Koen Khan, so I can thrown in a few hilarious one liners.????

Ceiling fitted by Thailand's finest ceiling fitters.. ( formerly rice planters/cutters, purveyors of concrete posts, market floor sweepers, hammock layabouts etc ).   What could possibly go wrong ?

It is a UK company not Thai!

Yes indeed - thank you, but I am sure the UK parent company would not be really interested in defamation. It would be making efforts to ensure Health & Safety and be investigating those responsible for the installation and/or construction.

"and be investigating those responsible for the installation and/or construction." - and once those responsible are identified, which will be a Thai Company, if named in public by Tesco, then Tesco can be sued for defamation.  In fact, whoever names them in public, can be sued for defamation.  So, the wrong doers become the victim. ????  ????
