Thai


Australian writer Harry Nicolaides has been sentenced to three years in a Thai jail for insulting the monarchy.



Nicolaides wrote a novel four years ago, which contained a brief passage referring to an unnamed crown prince. It sold just seven copies.

He admitted the charge of insulting the royal family, but said he was unaware he was committing an offence.

Nuts, screwball nuts, like rock hard bubblegum at the end of a plastic cone full of ice cream, but the ice cream is actually dog poo and the bubblegum is made of Polonium.
