    Just as well we are not living in a free democracy with a functioning rule of law.

    What gets me are the so-called Thai civilised intelligentsia from the educated urban classes who have been totally mute since the military coup. Thai truly are quite gutless and useless, preferring to leave matters to their children to protest.

    It sounds like chaos down on Suk already. Police out in force. Schools staying open but I wouldn't want to be on the school bus despite apparently being given permission to go through the road blocks.

    Business as usual out in Bang Na. Although I doubt we've got any policemen left in the province.
    I'd like to see what morning looks like
    Don't wanna drink pint after pint
    I wanna wake up without feeling sick
    But I can't cuz I'm a drug-abusing alcoholic
