things he should learn from this:

1. Never walk away from your drink, keep an eye on it so no one can drug you.

2. Never pick up a hooker off the street as you can not find them again if something goes wrong. And make sure all girls no matter where they came from provide ID card to reception.

Not understanding this story.. an Aussie with Euros in his wallet ?

Yes, that's really strange, isn't it? Everyone knows that Australians cannot, do not and will never possess Euros.

teacher eh,wait till he gets back to work.

It's school term at the moment in Australia, so what's he doing in Pattaya? Schools finish for the year on 19th December.

Dunno about down south Chooka but Qld high schools finished last week and week before for seniors.

Not understanding this story.. an Aussie with Euros in his wallet ?

I agree

It sounds odd for him to carry 500 Euro, unless he just returned from OS

Some people never learn !!Thinking with his small head not his big head. !!DOH!!

He's a teacher ...... they never learn ....

Interesting story. Why does an Aussi have Euros and not Aussi dollars?

Research...hopefully not school funded lol

Comments never cease to amaze....In AU teachers can take long service for any period of time for any reason.

The fact that he is here when schools are open in AU ..you conclude exactly what??

Interesting story. Why does an Aussi have Euros and not Aussi dollars?

Interesting post. Why would anyone ask such a banal question?

Not understanding this story.. an Aussie with Euros in his wallet ?

I am Australian. I have a few of each, AUD, THB, and Norwegian Krone. Quite often Malay Ringgit, and occasionally a few Euro. Australians do travel. .. + Bank cards from 3 countries. Do you have a problem with that?

Not at all... but I'd be guessing you're the exception rather than the rule. I to am an Aussie that travels....

What is curious is that he supposedly had ONLY Euros in his wallet which wouldn't be the case if he was such a worldly traveler such as yourself.... Do you have a problem with that?

That he's not currently teaching....perhaps...maybe

bit off more than he could chew?

Probably Austrian.

I am Australian too, whilst I have collected various amounts of currencies on my travels, I realise that these are not legal tender in Thailand and make a point of removing them from my wallet. along with any excess of cash.

This is Thailand after all. You can simply lose it - never to be seen again, or have it mugged by a gang of ladyboy Dec Waan, or get pickpocketed by some lowlife on the baht bus or just be involved in an accident, where the police help you out by removing excess paper weight from the wallet, whilst checking your ID on your way into the Ambo.

Wise up:)

Yay! Finally a dumb Aussie! It's been getting tedious reading about dumb Brit after dumb Brit for so long.

Bingo... We have a winner

Please guys.............

Wasted space and comments (including my own need to reply) re the guy having Euro's in his wallet.

In case you do not know, the world is now much easier and convenient to travel at faster times.

People can and do have currencies of choice and convenience.

The fact that this man had Euro's in his wallet and being discussed, is on the edge of being off-topic?

Please, Thai Visa is not a "Pre-School"

>>probably Austrian << exactly ,lost in Translation .He does not look like an Aussie .He looks far too intelligent .lol

If you engage in these kind of activities, you get what you deserve.

Aah, every Aussie man's dream - a pizza, a six-pack and a threesome. From Barry McKenzie to Shane Warne, we seem to have our priorities well and truly sorted before we get on the plane.

He'll probably go back to Oz and tell his mates he didnt pay a single Satang for sex in Thailand, and technically he'll be right - there was no sex and he received a 20-baht note in exchange for the 550 Euros that previously resided in his wallet. I was never a big fan of Maths at school, but that strikes me as one hell of an exchange rate.

Bon voyage, Mario old cobber - please tell your friends and family the real story - I'd love to be a fly on the wall when they ask whether you would have acted the same way if two complete strangers approached you in Europe or any Australian city.

Yay! Finally a dumb Aussie! It's been getting tedious reading about dumb Brit after dumb Brit for so long.

More horny than dumb

bet he doesn't feel so 'hansum' now

teacher eh,wait till he gets back to work.

you don't have to work to be a teacher

Bet he wishes he never went to the bib all he got for his troubles was being named and shamed in the media lol. Another quality tourist

"You call that a sleeping medication?"

He thought he was solving a math equation: 2x=1 (Do one, get one free)

instead he got a lesson in economy by two undercover bankers: the hot investment turned out to be a Ponzi scheme...and you pay for the pizza, too

Yay! Finally a dumb Aussie! It's been getting tedious reading about dumb Brit after dumb Brit for so long.

Also no mention of ladyboy thieves, although I'm inclined to wonder if Mario is bright enough to know whether his dates were women or not. One thing to go home and tell people you were robbed - a lot tougher to admit that they were men in a frock. Hopefully his brain will be waiting patiently for him when he returns to the airport.

Drugging tourists = death penalty That will bring a quick end to this

horrific practice in which many tourists have died from being dosed improperly.

Also the TAT should pay attention, as I am fairly sure every drugged tourist

will never return to Thailand. .......

Nah, being stupid punishable by death would soon stop this

Is it me, or is kind of thing happening all the time..., and TAT are trying there best at painting a ''Rosie'' Picture ???

anything but.. eh...

It's just you. It happens but not often, which is why it's news.

teacher eh,wait till he gets back to work.

I think he is a math teacher.....
