How very sad for his loved ones.

Far too young to die, only 33 ..

I hope his death was due to natural causes.

One can only speculate but there are just too many unexplained deaths like this in Pattaya.

Every traveller should be warned again and again of the dangers before they leave their home country.

Especially of accepting drinks from a stranger, even in your own room.

RIP David

Condolences to his family and friends.

RIP

Something very odd about this death. The guy was one of the top amateur cyclists in the British Isles. Still very fit at 38 and apparently not the proverbial piss head.

I am constantly amazed at the number of 'farang deaths alone' in apartments. Certainly living in patts/jomtien might not be the best place in the world for those whose minds are already on the brink but the frequency of this type of incident does not add up.
