  4. And rightly so they are complaining about her taking the pictures. How narrow minded can you be?
  5. Phuket court rules 'secured' or 'collective' leases are void PHUKET: In a shock decision by the Phuket Civil Court, backed by the Region 8 Appellate Court, it has been ruled that the so-called “secured leases†offered by some real estate developers to allow foreigners to secure a cast-iron 90-year lease are not valid. - See more at: http://www.thephuketnews.com/phuket-court-rules-secured-or-collective-leases-are-void-51183.php#sthash.xyPOXNEm.dpuf Follow this link Not sure if this is good or bad news, although in a typical Thai way, there seems to be a way out as the end of the article states.
  6. Website's been out since a while already but what baffles me is why Bust thinks all eyes are on Oz land.
  7. You need to really ease in to barefoot running. I run since a couple of years on Vibram 5 fingers but had a nice and easy transition period. Interestingly enough, I met a participant and his pacer (for the last 50 miles) of the Leadville 100 mile 1993 edition very recently, who raced with the Tarahumara and he placed 24th in under 25 hours which earned him the sliver buckle. The next year they reversed roles.

  9. Born to Run by Christopher McDougall In Born to Run, McDougall tracks down members of the reclusive Tarahumara Indian tribe in the Mexican Copper Canyons. After being repeatedly injured as a runner himself, McDougall marvels at the tribe's ability to run ultra distances (over 100 miles) at incredible speeds, without getting the routine injuries of most American runners. The book has received attention in the sporting world for McDougall's description of how he overcame injuries by modeling his running after the Tarahumara. He asserts that modern cushioned running shoes are a major cause of running injury, pointing to the thin sandals worn by Tarahumara runners, and the explosion of running-related injuries since the introduction of modern running shoes in 1972. Excellent read
  10. Just keep justifying yourself, you do that long enough, you will believe yourself.
  11. It's truly amazing how in several posts now you have condoned and defended cheating, scamming and breaking laws. A great sample of 'Thainess' indeed and the perfect reason why more scammers should be exposed in the LOS.
  12. Samui Times Concerns growing for missing British backpacker last seen in Koh Tao 26 year old Lauren Hebden went travelling in September 2013. During her travels she kept in touch on a regular basis via email and Skype, however other than one email in December 2014 communication stopped in September 2014. Concern for Lauren’s well-being is now growing. It is believed her last known whereabouts was Koh Tao, although there is a possibility she moved to another island, her Facebook page suggests she was working at a SCUBA diving shop on Siree Beach. Lauren is white, of medium build and has blue eyes and brown hair she is 5’10†tall.

  13. I like 'Fury' although I don't think anybody would look as good as Brad Pitt did after a grenade was thrown into the tank turret. KS, it must've been 'love at first sight'
  14. No signs of foul play in Briton's death January 23, 2015 5:17 pm Initial investigation has found no foul play in the death of a 23yearold British woman earlier this week in Surat Thani's Koh Tao. The body of Christina Annesley, 23, was discovered in her rented bungalow, and there were no signs of ransacking or struggle. Police send the body, which showed no marks of aggression or injury, to Surat Thani Hospital's forensic division for further examination. Pol General Ruangsak Jritake, deputy National Police chief, said Friday that police were focusing on examining the woman's room and nearby area as well as a thorough collection of forensic evidence. He said some medication has been found in the room, and police are checking to see if it is linked to the death. The Nation
