Anybody taking a siesta, especially if they are wearing a bikini, is asking for trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NamKangMan Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Looks like a couple of abrasions on her face. Maybe a little more to the incident than reported. He smashed the door to get out, but how did he get in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A1Str8 Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 A smiilar thing happened to me once too, when i woke up to some noise, went down to see whats up and saw two burglars doing their thing.I didnt want to bother them, but i am always open to hurt sl...s, so i couldnt help myself, next thing i know is they are on the ground. I was so happy for them, i called the cops right away and they arrived quite quickly.One of them actually kicked the two on the ground, then looked at me and said: they fell, right? I assured him, that indeed they did, then went back to sleep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldsailor35 Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 "She believed him to be a Thai"..................For goodness sake lady, when will you tourists learn that its not the Thai's but the Burmese who do all the crime here, helped along with a few Cambodians. Just ask the RTP or the General. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, if a new toothbrush is needed, the cell phone would’ve been the only other thing not to have been stolen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wooloomooloo Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 Notice how the "victim's" friend is closely guarding her own smartphone whilst looking slightly sheepish. Hmm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
