  1. Like other tourists before them they probably adopted the mindset of invulnerability and think they can get high, drive around as fast as they like, ignore the locals rules, wind up in hospital to rely on Go-fund-me appeals to get back home. God help the rest of us who have to live with the consequences of this nonsense.
  2. Need a modern day Egon Ronay restaurant guide. They used to be very good as I recall.
  3. How many more "Bad foreigner did this" stories does there have to be before they turn the land of smiles into the land of snarls then ? I am sure that there are far worse incidents going unreported by locals on themselves but they are deemed too unworthy or unpalatable to be referred to.
  4. Why did 'Business Financing' bother with such a poll if they weren't going to tell its readership how the scoring was done? Without such information passengers and airport management can't make decisions on what to avoid/fix and therefore this article becomes pointless and frustrating.
  5. If the guy is so obsessed with privacy why hasn't he fenced and gated his property rather than leaving it open like the photo shows? Sticking two piddly signs up saying 'No Trespassing' is clearly not enough and shouldn't warrant the reaction which 'supposedly' happened.
  6. No travel insurance will cover her if she intentionally went to the waterfall to jump off but the mere act of hiking up to the waterfall in the first place could in itself be considered a 'hazardous' activity which no insurance will cover unless previously agreed in advance.
  7. Wow. Tremendous level of detail there I'm used to seeing just bare bones but this is amazingly preserved.
  8. Can someone advise me if these new tax rules apply if you live in Thailand for less than 6 months of the year please?
  9. Wave goodbye to half of the Bangkok buses folks. ☠️
  10. Very interesting post Mike thanks. In your experience did you ever come across a hospital medical procedure pricelist for common ailments and if so do you think other hospitals are required to produce such a thing to enable people to compare costs easily. Obviously every medical case will be different but at least it gives you an idea of the likely ballpark figure in advance.
  11. Not such good news if you have a bar shack within earshot of where you live as they've never heard of soundproofing.
  12. I use the PWA website to check my water meter readings and bills each month and for the last few days when I try to access it I just get a browser error message which seems to show the site is down. Can anyone else confirm you are experiencing the same problem there please? On a side note does anyone know of a Thai website similar to downdetector.co.uk which consolidates info of known website problems ?
  13. Rather than roman blinds I'd recommend Zebra blinds (Google it) they come in all sizes for patio doors, windows and even high ones on a staircase. I fitted them in my house and have never regretted my decision. Unfortunately the shop I bought them from in CM has closed now but I'm sure you can find another local supplier online.
