[Skallywag]

All a miscommunication, the guy refused to learn Thai language.

Ask yourself as you have just posted it.

No it was already there, you know I talking about the person who put it up on net in the first instance.

Domestic violence including knives, not a good look for either.

Hope they decide to separate for their own safety.

 

Just a lovers tiff. No doubt back together already.

this baffles me. these  people go to thailand in search for better life but many end up in situations like this. what is their motivation for making such a move in the first instance/

Mrs lived in a place like this when I first met her in 2002. I stayed there for a month when I first came here, absolute hell before moving to a nice condo nearby. These places are worse than prisons, small, hot, noisy never painted concrete cells. Laughably they always have bars on the windows but nobody has owt worth braking in for, certainly not the telly in this one! Living like that is a contribution to violence, bored frustrating lives, add drink into the mix and two tied together who probably hate each other can easily flare up.

I'm  not convinced the farang attacked her with a knife i see much more batsh7t crazy thai women usually doing the chucky with the knives.

My guess the farang was in defence and the little thai ninja women had the knife.

What right does anyone have to post this video of private incident?

 

Once on public property anyone has the right, as long as not for profit.  AFAIK

Inalienable rights to privacy in thailand?  Never heard of any

Peace

I wonder if they will apologize and make up. 

  A lovely dinner together someplace nice might be a good start. 

Maybe somewhere with no knives like a noodle shop wouldn't want to take her for a steak.

Because life's never boring here. Nothing on TV? Let's chop lumps out of each other with a knife. Don't knock it until you've tried it.

Reminds me of when we were kids and I would grab my sister's arms and making her slap herself, then keep telling her to "Stop hitting yourself!"

sounds like a lot of fun for her too.. a good time was had by all

[sead]

So sad to see a farang living like that. 

[JustAnotherHun]

Anymore questions why Thailand is less welcoming retirees and tightening the rules of stay?

No they couldn't agree on a new colour for the walls.

Well, maybe he was a hard core criminal back in the UK, and are used to this, who knows,

Nah, he's a pussy, if he were hardcore, she would have never managed to cut him.

I realize not all Thais are like that or farangs for that matter this is just a small

part of my lady friends house in Pattaya.

 

 

 

Its not uncommon ,most of the Nice Condoes my wife]s family own are lived in by Thai people and they are immaculate,but as in all country]s there are those who live in Sh_t and those who don]t ,you only have to wonder around areas where there are lots of "cheap housing" there will be those that are clean ,neat with flowers outside and those that look awful ,yet the people living there are in the same social class.

Note to self, do not get into a knife fight with the wife

You should not go into a knife fight at all ... he is very lucky he survived it. Or she, depending who really was the assailant. Obviously getting attacked inside your own rooms by your SO, does not leave you many options.

[cardinalblue]

So he suffered head and face wounds ...so who was on the offensive?

 

[scubascuba3]

I was hoping this was the story about the Nirun suspected murder
