    She is lucky to be alive. I hope that she receives sterile treatment at Banglaming hospital which is not so high on the hygiene stakes.

    it seems to me its not safe to go anywhere on your own. pattaya was ok 9yrs ago and lve been there every year since. but its like any place on earth if you havent got the sense to stay at home in the middle of the night then what can one expect lm not saying the girl deserved it cos she never butif you got some gun totting gang roaming the streets at night then they need to be caught and fast before someone else gets hurt and next time it could be fatel thank heavens the baby was ok

  7. drinker says:
