  1. I had a drunken off duty cop waving his gun about on an overnight train some years ago.... as the only farang nearby I certainly didn't want to get his attention. A rather brave guard seemed to persuade him to go sit down and sleep.
  2. You think the investigating authorities look to this forum for help?
  3. Yes, that is what happened to me after a rather minor claim...... and perhaps even things with tentative links to some prior ailments may become exclusions. My thought were, if this is how they act in a minor situation, how would it be if it was some serious and expensive health incident!
  4. There is a car parking area at the rear but it is usually full...... to the point of it being difficult for even able bodied people to be able to get in and out of vehicles. There is also access into the bank from there but I can't remember if there are steps.
  5. Some are trying to escape a likely lynching.....
  6. East of Sukhumvit!
  7. Also check whether the insurance will pre-pay for treatment, or you are expected to pay yourself and claim back later. Not much help in situations where you may be incapacitated.
  8. Nice to hear positive stories... but sadly my Mrs relates some of the ones she sees on the Thai News that are usually negative. Last night it was several who beat up the wrong guy, another where a Policeman handed his phone to a WIN driver to go scan a payment code from a nearby motorist!
  9. That appears to be another one... I meant here. https://maps.app.goo.gl/zVrR2jdTq9LzAy3s7 Not much chance for the disabled is there?
  10. It looks great..... until the food selling carts move in!
  11. Perhaps try paying a little more?
  12. Very common approach here.... even restaurant runners and bar bill dodgers impose the cost of their crimes on lowly paid employees.
  13. The sex tourists seem to behave better and create less problems than this goofball!
  14. Good grief, almost sounds like a terrorist incident!
  15. More close to home, getting into The Bangkok Bank Branches..... particularly the one on second near soi 6!
  16. The agent holding the keys will be the only one with an opportunity to show and sell, in reality here many agents list the same properties. I can see the OP's issue as I am involved with a similar situation myself. Having a trustworthy neighbour to the house for sale is the best solution.. some incentive may help. Another solution is to put someone into the house to stay.... that would have it's risks.
  17. They tried traffic lights on those junctions, the delays were horrendous. They probably don't know how to incorporate the railway crossing into them too. Even when the police try things move more slowly than the free for all situation.
  18. Cars and pick-ups do it to me when on my bike too. Dodgy out there......
  19. Why has this serious incident taken so long to come out.....?
  20. You think so? I don't... maybe breach of contract!
  21. Buggered if I can find it now...how about taking a look at Dohome, North of town. Huge place. https://maps.app.goo.gl/p4ncBBrxVGDZ9cFC6
  22. Swimming pool suppliers...... Of course Lazada have them too! A Google search brings up a building suppliers place on Sukhumvit near Underwater world.
  23. They tried that line with the 'high dollar tourists' front... reality was though they still pursued numbers numbers and more numbers, looking to heavily populated countries.
  24. Yeah, the nerve, disrespected Thai culture and hospitality like that!
