  1. Where we live in BKK in the Bang Khen area, the water is very good...we've had it tested and the results were surprising. We still filter through a 5 filter system though, and never had an issue.
  2. When the cables are all tangled up on poles instead of underground, the temptation for easy money is too tempting for thieves, and will likely get worse as costs increase beyond peoples' capacity to afford living costs.
  3. Great picture...but I can't see any children of the family tourists
  4. The load is saturated mud from pile excavations. This material weighs approx. 2.5 ton per cubic meter....this truck bin is roughly 16M3....so it's well over weight. Mentioned a couple of days ago it was 27t...I'de estimate close to 40t in the bin
  5. Thai driving skills at work again....."sudden maneuver to execute a U-turn".......that'll do it every time:))
  6. This took while to make the news again....so I'm guessing the important people who run trucks are now removing the stickers.... Just a look at the state countries roads, lets everyone know that many trucks are ridiculously over loaded, hugging the outside lane because the other lanes have all tracked up....but the asphalt suppliers and contractors love it!
  7. At present, a 40' vessel pays Thb 1800/day....close to $50-60US/day. Yachts are usually on a strict budget, so a free marina would be very welcome!
  8. If they are, then the Army base in Din Deang is operating illegally. They have a BB sales shop at the rear of the complex.
  9. Actually not tackling the over population of monkeys....just giving them a home behind wire. Of course, the compound will be a huge cost (probably riddles with corruption) and then these bloody pests need to be fed. They started neutering these things some years back...especially in Lopburi...I think Hua Hin also ...that of course, all became too hard, no funds etc, after a short time and stopped.
  10. Not just the younger Thai guys that go mental over a possible loss of face incident....!
  11. Love the punjabis on their balconies....must have a look to see what all the fuss is about..let's not worry about a fire.!
  12. Perfectly responsible driving! Swerving a 10 ton bus to miss some mongrel dogs!....Swerving the bus because he was sleeping or texting more likely....anyway, they're freakin' hopeless!
  13. Surin is a slow news place....even the expats have moved out 'cos the bars shut:))...well...some.
  14. Potjarman is the older woman...Paetongtarn is looking away....anyway, normal procedure demanded by many Hi-So families.
  15. How do they state brake failure.....the driver was dead!. Maybe just being polite for his family.....:)
  16. There are no sides when in comes to the rich and influential. They actually respect each other and socialize as normal friends.....so this is nothing new..it is normal behavior for the uber rich in Thailand.
  17. I agree....however...the long tails don't exactly "cruise" the canals.....they also go flat out!
