Popular Post Just1Voice Posted January 8, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted January 8, 2015 I'm sure they're in a rush to book next year's vacation, and tell all their friends back home what a wonderful place Thailand is. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post rasmus5150 Posted January 8, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted January 8, 2015 Romantic setting must have a different meaning for Russians. Their so called table is an overturned tub used for mixing cement. Their wine looks like Chinese made champagne (200 thb at Tesco/Lotus). But the rose and glasses taken from their hotel room is a nice touch. 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post mcfish Posted January 8, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted January 8, 2015 Why would you go anywhere in a foreign country in pitch black surrounds with no help in sight and wait to get mugged? They are lucky to be alive. Maybe they will have better luck in Brazil, Mexico, or Central park New York at night. Fools 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Tham1 Posted January 8, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted January 8, 2015 Pretty sad when a couple not bothering anyone is attacked for no reason and robbed. LOSO Thais strike again and even if these brain dead zombies are caught they will be fined 500 baht or so and let go. This country is going to the dogs due to the corrupt Police and retarded locals 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Manbing Posted January 8, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted January 8, 2015 Nothing smacks of true romance like an upturned cement mixing bin, a plastic rose in a cheap vase ,I mean 'bouquet'; and a rooftop bevvy on the roof of a dirty building in stinking god awful Pattaya. Surely there's a movie in this 'love for the ages' story? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not on the roof of any building, stinking or otherwise, it was on the helipad at Pratumnak hill. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LennyW Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 I'm sure they're in a rush to book next year's vacation, and tell all their friends back home what a wonderful place Thailand is. Or maybe telling them how stupid they were to be wandering around an isolated dark area and how lucky they are to be alive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the intention that counts, not how much money things cost and if the robbers wouldn't have showed up, I bet your sweet a** both of them would have enjoyed the occasion. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or maybe telling them how stupid they were to be wandering around an isolated dark area and how lucky they are to be alive. I have to agree. I know that isolated helipad, and I sure know better than to have a "romantic evening" getting drunk up there at 1AM. It's just asking for trouble. Tourists often employ no common sense and do things that they would not do back home. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ow fan wan Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 Looks like Soi 4 Phratumnak? Anyone know? Until the ICE epidemic is brought under control these muggings will be on the up. Pattaya now full of Thai junkies who will do anything to get their next fix. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
