Home-Country Ghosts of Christmas Past: Do you miss them?
I agree with you. All of our Christmas family dinners everyone got drunk and started fights with each other. Lots of racism in my family. Been in Thailand 12 years went back 3 times but after Covid in 2019 never returned again. Thailand is my home now. No regrets. -

Dutch tourist allegedly escapes bills and steals from many Phuket hotels
Back in 2015 or so I stayed at an AirBnb in Bangkok (reserved the room for a month) and upon arrival, the cable tv, washing machine and the light in the bathroom didn’t work. The owner kept dragging their feet and would have the building chang come and “look”…but nothing was fixed. After a week went by and it was time for me to wash the sheets on the bed, when I took them off, there were blood and urine stains literally all over the mattress. It was awful. I took pictures and then decided to contact AirBnB and asked to cancel. The owner fought it but as AirBnB had photos of the mattress (which they agreed was unacceptable) they refunded the remainder of my stay but not the whole thing. I was completely ok with that. I find it hard to believe that a guest can stay the whole time and then complain on the last day of their stay and get a full refund as the article interviewee claims. Maybe things have changed since my stay but I just can’t see where AirBnB wouldn’t have just said “you should have notified us as soon as there was a problem”. -

Tell me what scam you have been in ?
Many years back my Thai wife and I accepted such a fare. It was early in the day and we had no urgent need to be anywhere. We were taken to a semi precious stone jewelry outlet. All very nice but too expensive to attract even my Thai spouse for items that were not GOLD ! We completed the circuit of the shop and left. Tuktuk driver honored the deal and we returned to hotel for 20 Baht. What scam? Can only be a scam if the driver does not announce conditions of transport. If so then walk away and seek a different driver ! People need to differentiate "scam" from "negotiated " . More than once I have videoed conversations with taxi drivers in total duration of journey and in two cases where gross dispute was attempted I made it clear I had evidence to provide. -

US Warplane Brought Down in Red Sea Amid “Friendly Fire” Incident
Exactly, would have been a UN resolution drafted straight away. As it turns out the terrorist Houthis tried to claim credit for the shooting down first before the US revealed the real cause. Always trust the scum who side with Hamas to lie.
