I am interested in your replies to this rather morbid topic....

The moral to this is if you are going to buy in Pattaya, take the ground floor

[Bumpa STIKKA]

Thailand (and especially Pattaya) attracts the deadbeats of the world.

I don't know if she was kidding or not, but didn't Naang Faa trip and go over once and was saved by the awning?

[f0xxee]

Ah no... that was the story she told as to how she got the name Naang Faa, or at least that how I sort of understood it when she told it to me.

Would be my luck to walk out the door and have someone land on my head...

The good news on the above topic is that all cases have been solved and ruled an accident by BIB

According to a friend of mine who visits HH on weekends but who works send mortal remains home to supposed love ones during the week, 95% of Thai death certificates read heart failure as cause of death. he could have been jerking my chain, but there is an irrefutable logic to it:
Fell off a building and his heart stopped.
Copped a bullet to the head and his heart stopped.
Slammed his Honda into an Toyota Vigo and his heart stopped.


Thanks for the clip JimSlim, a good one! Perhaps Pentire can set up shop at Nakuka Towers....

[TTChang]

Love the Utube clip .... do you remember all the MonyPython sketches, Jim?

[Lefty]

Would it be worse to fall/be pushed/jump off an 8th story balcony and not die, but have every bone in your body broken, and be put in a full body cast and have to live that way in Banglamung Hospital for the next 20 yrs? You can't move and no one there speaks a word of English.

Thanks for the Monty Python clip, Jim. I loved that show and that was still funny after all these years. John Cleese and Eric Idle were the best of that group IMO.
