I don't think this is a big deal, but a policeman has again for the third time in three weeks, come to my house to check my passport and take photos of me.

The first time, no problem, the second time, the same policeman doing the exact same as the first time, again this morning, doing the same thing but a different policeman.

Like I said this is no big deal, but what does it say about the competence of the Thai police when they have to come and see you three times about the exact same thing?

They just love you

well 1st lost the paperwork/dna

2nd got pissed on the way back

3rd time lucky

Watch out if they start taking DNA samples off you and stealing tour gardening tools

They just love you

Of course, the big handsome Farang, the only one in the village.

Gardening tools???????????? I came here to retire.

Why are you putting up with this ? Tell them to go away or arrest you.

Maybe they are going to keep coming till they get a brown envelope, that's just not going to happen.

Maybe the cops don't know I don't drink, and he wants to be my friend for obvious reasons.

I have been living up here next to the Mae Wong national park for 12 years and only once in that time have the police come to see me.

Perhaps I am being ignored.

Good.

Get yourself one of these problem solved,

Or alternatively live within the walls of a gated community.

The mrs answers the door to no one unless family, we dont even have a door bell outside, by prior appointment only.

I already have three, there is a driveway from the road up to the house, and a gate is always opened as Mrs Possums

customers have to get in.

The only time the police have come to my place they came as a task force, 10-15 of them. Oops, so sorry wrong address.

I think that could be compared to playing High - low.

You don't live next to an apartment block where they stash their mianoi's do you - could be you are just in a convenient place for them. Photos are just ad evidence they are doing their job.

No, I live upcountry on the edge of a village.

the policeman may have heard you have a large George Jones' collection.

In which case he may either wish to hear them or confiscate them on the grounds of noise pollution.

There's only one way to found out- put him on when he comes around..

If he wants to confiscate anything on the grounds of noise pollution, then I can't help him.

I do not have any collection of Michael Jackson or Elton John.
