Expat Tom Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 So you can be crammed into a bus but you can't buy a lady (or lady boy-whatever your preference may be) a drink. Please explain that to me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burma Bill Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 So, still no bars, pubs or clubs - maybe the Thai Temperance Society within the "establishment" is still having a say???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last night, on the 48, there was a scrum of people standing. I was squeezed so close to a lady boy i could post on the "have you ever had a sexual encounter with a ladyboy" thread. How many inches were between the ladyboy and you? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For anyone under pensionable age, the chances of becoming seriously ill, let alone dying, from this latest coronavirus are infinitesimal. You're probably at greater risk driving to the pharmacy to buy a bottle of sanitiser. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can also sit in a coffee-shop with a mate, and have a non-alcoholic drink. Recently I was in a coffee-shop in Thonglor, 5 people where sitting on one table, there was some kind of presentation, one guy was speaking, showing some stuff on a laptop.

And it is likely that is pure, and total hypocrisy. I see nothing from these goons, that suggests a moral, and righteous lifestyle, or an ability to demonstrate anything even close to the purity they preach endlessly. It is true, they seem to have an issue with fun, nightlife, and the industry. But, I do not consider any of that to be based on anything but a false sense of superiority, based on less than zero. If anything the opposite is true. If the Thai people really knew these men who are running the country, they would likely be ousted tomorrow. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premises that were allowed to open, had that permission on the basis that they followed the covid protocols. You chose to enter one that apparently wasn't bothered about the guidance and you are trying to make some sort of point. Like the half million people on Bournemouth beach the other day, why should anyone bother with guidance, xxxx everyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does getting a haircut impair your judgement and make you forget about taking health precautions, getting closer to people, talking face to face because of the ambient noise? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sanuk711 Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 So have the UK papers got it wrong today---they have Thailand as open for business from the 6th of July ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Families can again book summer getaways after ministers agreed last night to open air corridors with dozens of countries. The partial dismantling of Priti Patel's quarantine scheme means UK holidaymakers will be able to return home without having to self-isolate for 14 days. Under the traffic light system, countries will be rated green, amber or red based (right) on infection levels, the reliability of official data and confidence in test and trace systems. 'Traffic light system' for holiday destinations that will let Brits go on holiday to the safest destinations WITHOUT having to quarantine for two weeks is set to come into force on July 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anna Rak Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 Air bridges to be announced by British Gov on Monday, quarantine to be all but gone, most EU states, NZ and Australia sure to be included plus other countries on a traffic light system.
