Emster23 Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 I find it almost humorous that stories often contain "warrant xus/9847/<deleted> dated blah blah was issued by court OEk etc" as if it matters, but can't name hotel that had a fire..... defamation to report the facts.

emilymat Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 Funny, the fire service always 'race' to the scene, but the police and medics always 'rush'. . What a sad anorak I am Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael8511 Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 It's nice to joke around. For people that stay in hotels and it's the same amount hotel room in Pattaya as in a big us city it's nice to hear that everyone was safe. Yes they have fire squads here and they are quit effective same as their ambulance service. Very few deaths from heart and brain injuries with such a high age tourist population Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
