Depends how you define "taking part". According to the BBC more than a million people took to the streets to celebrate Pride which seems a significant and proportionate number. The 30,000 you refer to is actual participants in the official "procession of floats, performers and dancers". https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-66074940

And you will arrange their work permits?

They'll not only bring the ice blocks but they will crack them into slivers between their thighs

What an amazing resource! Thanks for the link.

I always thought of Bangkok as the town where you'll never wank alone, to paraphrase that great Anfield anthem.

These Thai re-enactments are really weird and always have been. Since they are covered widely in the local press, finding an independent witness who has no bias for or against any individual must be tricky!

It's still providing useful information and being bounced to the top of the threads. The additional information now is which posters are dicks!

You too big!!

It all depends so much on the circumstances and the individuals. If you only believe in renting then you are unlikely to ever have a partner in life, and maybe you never wanted one. On the other hand you are more likely to keep your bank balance to spend on yourself. However I don't think it is fair to categorise Thais as somehow inherently dishonest in relationships. I can offhand think of at least twelve Thai/Farang couples who have been together for at least ten years, some based in Thailand and some in Europe. I actually can't think of a serious thai farang couple who broke up. As far as I have observed in these couples I think that Thai partners are especially thoughtful, tolerant and caring. The vast majority of the couples originally met in Thailand, so if the farangs had been applying the "if you want love in Thailand rent it" guideline they would not now be enjoying many years of happy partnered lives. In fact the saddest farang friend that I have is wealthy and lonely having spent most of his time in Thailand treating his sex partners as paid employees, but is now looking enviously at those friends with loving Thai partners. Different strokes for different folks.

Having raided three clubs and drug tested more than 500 staff and customers, checked their visas and searched their cars, they only found one instance of lawbreaking which was a Laotian woman who had overstayed her visa! I think the drug tests may be faulty!

The beds are round, not the rooms. If you want ceiling mirrors, try the short time rooms at the Suriwong Hotel. Although it's been a while and it wasn't a pretty sight even then!

So he didn't hear socially that Geng was a thief, unfortunately.

You don't say.......

Hmmm. I wonder if he, and his wife, will be found alive. Threatening the powerful, which the sharing of such information would do, tends not to end well, especially in Thailand. Too many vested interests.

I expect that if Milk had wanted to write that he could have managed it!

If you follow the link you will see that they do.

If exchanging money or drawing cash in a peak water fight area be sure to carry waterproof bags!

Sounds like all hat no cattle.

Ah. You made it sound like you had direct personal knowledge of areas and venues that other posters/travellers didn't possess.

Sending a convicted paedophile as to Ceylon, with it's record of tolerance of expat paedophiles and their activities, is an interesting punishment!

Are you able to point us in their direction.......

I can imagine how much fun it will be for stewards to wake half cut passengers to tell them that their booked sleeping flat slot has completed!

Where do you want it delivered?

Although they were one of the earliest five star hotels in that sex orientated area, as Reader writes they were careful to ensure that it never became a place for casual hook ups. Having eaten there several times last year, the food in the Ruenton restaurant is fabulous, I am confident that the hotel isn't gay unfriendly. I believe it is still owned by the original family who had it built.

If you nearly died previously having been trapped in a cave by water........the choice of putting the ashes into water is an interesting one.
