Manbing Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 What no pointing? Phuket crime photographers could learn a lot from those aces in Pattaya. Of course they do get more practice, with the more concentrated number of a$$hats in Pattaya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

riceyummm Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 “However, so far we have found only drug paraphernalia.
