I was told that it is illegal to kill snakes here in Thailand.

Surely this is not the case. Multiple stories here on AN in recent weeks/months about how well exports are doing. The government just want cheap credit so that they can borrow more money to buy votes. Headline from the BP yesterday.

And the scantily clad girl is there because?

Unfortunately, the sellers of the product tell the tourists that cannabis is totally legal. No one advises them otherwise. How about some big signs at entry at the airports and ports like they had years ago stating the fact that it is the death penalty for bringing in drugs and so on.

That is ok if you want to look like a convict or a dog. (Yes, I have a friend who cuts his own hair with his dog's clippers. It shows.) I prefer something a bit better and a professional is my preferred choice. Nothing lazy about that. We are not all cheap Charlie's.

Well done.

They have been raising this issue for years. Lots of villas here have had to pay for 'hotel and pool' licences every year. A nice little earner for the lawyers and accountants. Now the word 'hotel' is crossed out on the document and replaced with 'villa'.

'But vaping is safe' people keep telling us.

No human rights for these poor souls eh Thailand? Resign from the UNHRC - it is no place for members with double standards.

There is no way that I would consider buying an electric vehicle. Electricity is just under 10 baht per unit on the development where I live.

Nice photo. Shame that it has nothing to do with the story. Or is it from that cave complex? (Difficult when it is 'for reference' only.) Anyone know where the photo was taken?

Whilst that price is probably a limited opening offer, there should be quite a few takers.

From the Bangkok Post

Then do not come to Samui. Local salon in the shopping mall charges 800 baht for a haircut - includes washing and blow dry. I said that I only wanted the haircut - not the rest. Still 800 baht she said. As you say, others charge from 100 to 500 baht. You get what you pay for. Most do not know how to 'cut' men's hair unless it is with the clippers. They can be useless with the scissors. A friend uses the 100 baht haircut and it is obvious. Even he said that the cut is rubbish but now that he is retired, he does not care.

I am not sure if they have any claim that long after purchase. Someone could have swapped the real one for the fake.
