  1. All you can eat, so to speak! Sounds enticing, but the trouble with a buffet if you fill up too quickly!
  2. The PFC is becoming too popular.
  3. It's well known that Asian people are more likely to have a genetic mutation that makes it more difficult to break down the alcohol, and hence are can suffer from alcohol intolerance. Mind you the defective gene can appear in all races, it's just that it seems more prevalent in Asian people. I found this in Japan when I visited. As you may know Japanese written English can be very good, but their spoken English is a lot less good. I'm told they do not get a lot of practice in speaking English in school, etc. Hence, in the evening, over various dinners, the 'Asian flush', as it is rather unsympathetically called, became quite evident! Bearing in mind that hearing is the first sense affected by alcohol, later in the evening I did a lot of agreeing, and nodding!
  4. He pays buyer?
  5. Very reasonable, will tips stay the same, I wonder?
  6. I always find this sort of discussion interesting, talking about military coups as a way of life! '7 years gone, time for another coup'! The argument now seems to be that the Constitutional Court, members installed by the Army, can be relied upon to do the bidding of the Army, without a coup. We will see. What happens if the Government tries to reform the Constitutional Court, and install neutral judges?
  7. He was made a Cabinet member by Prayut, I believe. That's fairly good protection! He also feels strong enough to ditch Prawit, which is interesting. One of my friends in Bangkok says he can deliver votes!
  8. Thanks. Very helpful! Can you share his Grindr details? I am due in Pattaya end October!
  9. Is Villa Gianni still alive? I last went there over 10 years ago, and bit was pretty rundown then.
  10. Is that the same Thamanat who was jailed for drug dealing? Sounds a good choice, bearing in mind the recent Constitutional Court ruling!
  11. Sorry to hear that. I hope things improve, and that you get some excellent new stamps.
  12. Especially the wildlife!
  13. Surely not corruption, on Government contracts. Unheard of...
  14. They keep on coming. It seems people are keen to join the PFC!
  15. Indeed! Not to be overlooked....
  16. Glad to hear!
  17. Absolutely!
  18. Very sensible message.
  19. Eastbound is worse for me. When I went straight through, recently, London to Sydney, I was wiped out for 2 days. Coming back was better. This was business class, but even so. However when I was working I used to fly to Tokyo. Arrive Saturday pm. Get up following morning, at 7 am, to be taken to play golf. Golf and polite chat all day, back to hotel 7pm! Following morning, Monday start work at 9am! Hardly noticed jet lag. What I think those showed was the power of the mind and adrenalin. As it was work, and you had to concentrate, somehow jetlag didn't get a look in. My Sydney trip was after I retired!
  20. Look forward to further news!
  21. More like a mixed up dictionary, with a hint of unpleasantness. Blocking him was well worthwhile.
  22. Instead of Google translate!
