Incorrect change and such like.

I normally don't bother checking bills. I tend to trust people, as I have done all my life. It's the legacy of growing up in a country of very honest people.

On the odd occasion that I have checked, all has been in order. But then again, I don't get roaring drunk - a bit difficult on Coke Zero - so perhaps the temptation to short-change me or inflate the bill is limited.

I find the Thais very honest. On a couple of occasions I've handed over a 1000 baht note in the dark , mistaking it for 100 baht. And the notes have been returned to me, earning the waiters a decent tip for their honestly.

I know, I know.....what about the times I made the same mistake and the money wasn't returned? Or did it only happen a couple of times?

Well, if I'm so careless, then that's my fault.

If I found a place trying to rip me off, I doubt I'd return.
