UK passport service and other agencies dropped the ball on this one. I am amazed that a stolen passport can be used and renewed for so long.- 149 replies

Bronchalo claims he didn't kill the man. However, he can't explain why he was seen scattering the dead guy's parts in different places on the island. This guy is creepy. -

The blood alcohol limit in Thailand for driving is 0.05. Canada, US, and the UK are 0.08. Two or 3 beers can get you to 0.05.

Golden getaway: Thai woman swipes Chinese man’s credit cards in Pattaya

Credit cards should require a pin entry at purchase for security. If the seller doesn't ask for a pin, then they should be out on the fraudulent purchase. -
$22.00 Burrito in SF now, the world has gone mad.
swerve replied to EVENKEEL's topic in US & Canada Topics and Events
The security guard will need to pay income taxes, food tax, and tip before he can fully enjoy that burrito. I figure the $22 will go up to $36 before tax money. $4 tip, $3 food tax and then approx. 20-25% income tax on earnings. Your security guard will need to work two hours for his lunch. Beverage and any extras will bump the price up. -
Time to move on from covid concern. I have had 3 covid vaxes and then later contracted covid 3 times, none of which I would call a major illness. Why should I particularly care about covid in the future? I am skeptical about the fatality numbers posted. The last chart data also shows very few fatalities.

He served 4 months in a Thai prison. Sounds to me like this guy got deported. He'll have trouble getting back into LOS. Getting a Thai lawyer to sort it out is probably his best starting point. -
