ukrules Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 (edited) This is an unexpected twist, I wonder about the circumstances under which he left his job. If true this could become quite a media story in the UK. Edited June 8, 2010 by ukrules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eclipse Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 It is hard to imagine that he was ever sane enough to be accepted to work there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GM1955 Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 (edited) It is hard to imagine that he was ever sane enough to be accepted to work there. I wish I were his agent ! He's gonna make a lot of money when he gets back to UK. Edited June 8, 2010 by GM1955 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's gonna make a lot of money when he gets back to UK. I would not wish too hard. There was a guy some years ago, looser kind of guy, who jumped in the water and went over Niagra Falls with only his cloths to become the first ever to survive without a boat or a barrel. He was famous for about 12 hours, then forgotten. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bagwan Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 I doubt the veracity of this story. A porter? Buck House doesn't have a railway station. My guess is that a tired and emotional reporter meant to say Paddington. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xenomorph Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Couldn't he figure out by his own brain that he would get into BIG troubles if he would anticipate in the Bangkok spectacle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moe666 Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Couldn't he figure out by his own brain that he would get into BIG troubles if he would anticipate in the Bangkok spectacle? I think the brain he might have had was taken back or never given. As we use to say in the Navy he didn't have all of the stenciling on his seabag.

sharecropper Posted June 9, 2010 Author Share Posted June 9, 2010 Someone reliable told me last night he was also the foreigner at the forefront of the ASEAN riot in Pattaya last year and was widely seen on Thai TV. Anyone know if that is true,, and whether he has been charged with anything relating to that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

animatic Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 It is hard to imagine that he was ever sane enough to be accepted to work there. Well, he did himself say he was doing steroids and that tends to set ones mind on the looser side of coherent by most reports. That was one of the specific excuses he gave for his outburst to the Scots fellow with vid cam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sharecropper Posted June 9, 2010 Author Share Posted June 9, 2010 what a croc. Next he will have the heritage of a knight! So then we'd have One Knight in Bangkok I suppose? That pun deserves some acknowledgement, although I think he is more likely to feature in Debrett's Beerage than Peerage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone know if that is true,, and whether he has been charged with anything relating to that? you can see him amongst the general melee throwing stones at the police [/url] Many thanks for the link. Watching the footage again makes me think: 1. How utterly depressing, to know if that happened again in Pattaya the police would be equally incompetent/wilfully useless. 2. What a real idot this guy is. Lives in a luxury condominium in Northshore, thinks taking part in a class struggle with the poor of Isaan is a good idea. Maybe he is fuelled by class resentment because of his former job? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ukrules Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 I don't believe the story. I don't see why not, it's a low paying job which most people would qualify for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a real idot this guy is. Definitely and idiot. Still, if Arisman is ever caught I doubt he will be put in an orange jumpsuit and shackled the same way Savage is.

You're right, any one of us runs the risk of ending up in this situation if we are merely accused of a crime in Thailand. Ragardless of guilt this will be the outcome of an accusation unless large amounts of money are paid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basil B Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 This is an unexpected twist, I wonder about the circumstances under which he left his job. If true this could become quite a media story in the UK. Probably complaining about the poor pay, not so long ago he would have lost his head for doing that.
