Report Boob Dispute: Indian Tourists Call Cops on Pattaya Bar Girl
More likely she refused to leave without the remaining 2000 baht. Maybe even got violent or threatened them. A hooker losing face is a dangerous creature. -

Immediate Emergency Flight Home Experiences?
It was for the kids and to help generally , even tho they were capable. It’s natural to want to help those you love ! My sister also had a funeral plan. They do that in the UK. As for the « 12 hours earlier » , I didn’t have any options. I took the first. You try and get a flight over the Christmas / New year holidays. -

What Actually Makes You an “Old-Hand” in Asia?
I think the term “old hand” was originally meant to describe someone who’s a seasoned veteran. Someone with real experience on the ground who actually gets it. But these days, plenty of people like to call themselves old hands without ever really reaching that level. Like you said, many live in an isolated expat bubble, drink too much, never bother to learn the language, and never grasp how or why things work here. I see it constantly on this forum, people who’ve been here for years but clearly never figured it out. Most of the time, they just seem angry more than anything. -

Report Thai Electricity Bills to Remain High Despite Lower Fuel Costs
extra info. Oh yes, this might be important, the whole of the suspended ceiling is covered with six inches of wool insulation, the bedroom I work in during the day with my computer etc has twelve inches of insulation, I notice when I have had the aircon for a few hours and then go out for a few hours (aircon off) and come back, it is still cool. -

Report Thai Electricity Bills to Remain High Despite Lower Fuel Costs
As a comparison, I have one aircon on all day in a room which is about 13 feet times 22 feet, I set it to 26/27 degrees as it reduces the humidity as well making it cooler. I also have my computer on all day and a 49 inch monitor. There are two large fridge/freezers. During the night there is an aircon running at 26 degrees the bedroom is about 12 feet x 12 feet. The bill is about 2300 baht a month. Now I am in the England for a five month holiday, my electricity bill in the house in Thailand is 600 baht a month, that is with my partner staying there five days a month with the aircon on at night in the same bedroom. She does not use aircon during the day.
