Sometimes, a cigar is just a cigar. BTW, they did this: "The body has been sent to the Police Forensic Institute in Bangkok for a postmortem examination and the British Embassy in Bangkok have been informed."

LOL. Do you think moving to Thailand makes you immortal? Old people die all over the world; no-one lives forever, not even in Thailand. Probably died of some health condition, so don't know what you find so alarming about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every death that if not witnessed deserves a post mortem to determine cause of death. Only then can the truth be known. That is if you believe the Thai forensic pathologist's.

Loptr Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Something to do with age I fear, catches up on all of us. Have been to 4 burnings already this year and it's only just March! In this day and age, 61 is a bit young to be popping your clogs of natural causes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
