[Romanian Tourist Falls to Death from Pattaya Hotel Balcony]

How in the heck does this happen?

 

Seems like every month one reads of this.

 

Is there a uncontrollable force that makes people apparently sit on the balcony railing after a all night binge or simply enjoying a morning coffee.

 

 Ninth wonder of the world.

Exactly what i was thinking. 

 

This does seem to be a regular occurrence, I think they either jump or are pushed. surely it cannot be that many persons topple over by accident.

mrs. smiths body aint what it used to be, putting it mildly.

I am already visiting girls on the side regularly but I do kinda feel bad about it.

It's not her fault after all. well it kind of is actually, she eats like a pig and ive told her that but every time i mention she just keeps on eating, almost in spite...

She is also very moody these days. Snaps at the smallest thing.

she says she still loves me though and could never leave me.

 

what should I do?

I still like her personality a bit but i dont find her sexually attractive anymore.

We sleep in seperate bedrooms and thats the way i want it.

 

Should I continue getting my kicks on the side, possibly think about trading her in for a younger model, or should I just accept my lot in life and try to make my woman happy?

I wonder what she thinks obout your body.  ????

Aww, I see it's time for a puppy thread. Here are mine. Pic's about a year old, so they're now about 2. Mom and dad made these 5, so now we have 7 dogs.

 

When they were young I pleaded with the wife to give some away, but it wasn't happening. Now we're stuck with em. Some are going out to the farm eventually. Rather than spaying/neutering, a guy in the village gives them periodic injections to stop pregnancy, or not want the boom boom.

They look well cared for. good job.

[Why do people move to Thailand and Complain How Much Things Cost?]

20 hours ago, moogradod said:

I moved here from Switzerland where a lot of things are expensive (in fairness it needs to be mentioned that they are as well of high quality). And many things here are not so expensive.

 

But some are overly expensive. I am complaining about the price of exactly the same good sold here at 4-5 times the price (some even more) which cannot be justified by anything real (purchase price, logistics like transport, storage etc.). Most probably this is due to tax which is excessive for some items and nothing short of a simple rip-off.

 

Unfortunately this does not only apply to luxury items like sport cars etc. which I do not need to buy that frequently ????, but to simple things like orange juice or risotto rice. There is no delicious orange juice available here (something like "Andros") or apple juice (line Gravensteiner) - even irrespective of price for the imported (a bit better) ones which sell at exuberant rip-off prices. I think that these are specific product ranges that some are complaining about (think "wine" - guess there are a lot who are not that happy with the pricing).

Buy fresh oranges and squeeze your own juice. 100% natural.

This accident looks like it may have occurred at a set of traffic lights.

So I'm willing to bet that the lights were changing from green to red and the truck a the rear was trying to force the other truck through the red light by tailgating.

Only the truck in front chose to abide by the law, brake sharply and stop.

I think your spot on.  I was a passenger in a truck in the Uk many years ago, same thing happened. Truck in front stopped at lights last minute, the truck I was passenger in thought he was going through and then unable to stop in time. BOOM.  luckily neither I nor driver were seriously injured, although the truck was writ off, Lucky.

'one confirmed case in a stray dog' that has bitten 5 or six people and possibly an unknown number of other dogs. All feral dogs need exterminating to cut down on incidents like this; and the number of road accidents; and the sleep-depriving nuisance of baying and snarling animals.  I have reluctantly crossed two of my favourite restaurants off my list as the noise was unbearable.

Ive crossed a few off my list for serving up dog.

Well,

I enjoy the scenery and culture every day:

Everywhere littering, burning waste including plastic and paint, throwing waste out of your Car, biting wild dogs everywhere, of course without any owner, increasing hostility against foreigners, inability of self control, drug addicts even behind the wheels, double pricing, aso aso.

Of course you can't bite the dogs if the owners are around. ????

Actually I have a place in Spain but currently staying here in LOS,  still deciding where to stay for good.

Where in Spain you thinking.
