Popular Post nightfox 1550 Posted January 12 Popular Post Share Posted January 12 The lifeguards in Patong beach are useless, I was there last week and saw them all on their phones instead of looking at the water. They couldn't even save a drowning fish let a lone a person. 3 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yawn. Back in the day, after the 2004 Boxing Day tsunami, it was quite a discussion topic when it was decided that foreign rescue workers would need proper work visas. I assumed that's what @trainman34014 had in mind with his post? PS: I can hardly believe the tsunami was 18 years ago! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
