That's the spirit James sharpen those knives and start posting on the forum again.
You and I have had words in the past, but I don't hold any grudge against you, it's only a forum after all.

As for the OP, well it seems there is quite a bit of info out there on the subject of the stabbing, much of which, would not have appeared on the forum without you starting the thread.

Just how much is true and which is just bar talk, is yet to be fully established in a court of law (if it gets that far) that is why the Big Bugger with the scythe has to be careful what is posted on here.

So come on back James, we have biscuits.

Not sure it is related but I would like to share my own experience as a caution to others...

About 2 months ago on a Saturday night I had been partying all night at Cat Bar.
Around 4-5am feeling a bit drunk I decided to go home. As I was walking down that dark alley trough the afters karaoke bars, I bumped into another foreigner coming up the other way. I offered him a sorry and a smile, and kept on my way.
My Thai friends were following me about 10m behind to make sure I take a taxi and not drive myself. They saw that foreigner turning back to follow me into the darkest end of the alley.
He looked around to check there was nobody else, then pushed me in the back down the stairs. As I fell lying on the ground he grabbed a discarded beer bottle, broke it onto the concrete ground, and came at me with the sharp glass piece.
My friends yelled at him to stop as he made to stab me in the stomach. One of them, who happens to be undercover police, had to draw his gun for the guy to run away and escape trough the beach road between hilton & sofitel.
We could not identify him and cctv was useless to trace his route.
In their own words "we never see farang like this in huahin before, maybe in pattaya, but here we never see farang want to kill other farang for nothing".

So please be aware that walking among us in our HuaHin there is a foreigner with the mindset and the skills to kill someone for no reason...

This is very worrying
BUT You were walking down a dark alley in a bar area at 4am and something unfortunate happened--unbelievable. (That you are surprised)

thanks for this info. good thing you had your friends with you. The Cat Club is just about the only late night, early morning venue in HH that a farang would be at. Some real characters show up on the street around closing time. I stop and look around for any REALLY weird vibe, while trying to filter out the ladyboys which is a whole other problem. Going back into Binabaht late at 4:00 am is not is not a good idea. Exit to the south towards the police station.

I don't do Victim Posture. I am always looking at people like I am a cop in a place like Hilton late night.

Link. subtract out the gun part.
