  1. The best way is to soak the foot in warm water and then just clean all of the junk out using a (large) injection needle or a small sharp knife. Blood will flow so it is not for the faint of heart to do. Flush it out with warm water and clean with alcohol or betadine. I would follow up with a wrapping it so it stays clean and also give antibiotic for a week or so. It looks kind of messy but cleaning it properly is the only way to do it. We had a bunch of birds having it over the past years and all did recover.
  2. You are soo right! They also say alcohol is very bad when consumed in large amounts,it may lower your immunity. Be careful!
  3. You can tell them you gave the money to some one who has been waiting for a refund for a long time already. I will send you my bank number in pm.
  4. You can also place it on a large plate and place it in the sun,the insects will leave.
  5. You need to check out Prachuap Khiri Khan. Nice quiet ,good places for coffee and to eat but no bars. No nightlife but that is what is no nice about the place. In the town itself you can stay near the beach or just on the beach just outside.
  6. If they call you Farang you must also be offended,being a Thai and all that.
  7. We were not talking about dangerous dogs as such but Pitbulls. And yes people would look for another dangerous breed if Pittbulls were banned,happened in a few countries already. They can be good dogs,in the right hands.
  8. If they were banned the people would look for another breed of dog, they would screw that up also.
  9. No mentioning of the old lady trying to attack the dog,she wanted the dog to stop biting. Highly reactional dog,this happens not only in Pitbulls. The fact that the dog already bit before and no action was taken means you could wait for it to happen again. Aggression in dogs or in humans need to be controlled or it will happen again. But,they still loved the dog,mai pen rai. Like other posters have said,end his life now before he goes off again. Probably put in a small kennel until they feel sorry for it and then ,it will happen again.
  10. Not only weak people,no knowledge means no training which in turn means a dangerous dog. It went wrong ,as it often does.
  11. I already have but 5 inch is not a size widely used. thanks.
  12. For a project i want to do i am looking for a 5 inch diameter stainless steel pipe. The catch is i only need it 20 cm in length,i can buy a whole length but that would be a waste of money for me. Does anyone know where i could find something like that? A leftover piece would be ideal but i have no idea where to look. The specs do not really matter just basic 304 would be fine. Any leads? Thanks.
  13. When they pull me over i speak in a dialect not many people even in my country speak. Usually they flap their ears and wave me on.
  14. Years ago a good friend of mine from Sweden was killed at the same crossing. He was on a small motorbike,he was not drunk or stupid. He had just left my place and went to say good bye to some other people. Still a mystery to me why that happened. The train never stopped,they just called in that they hit some one.
  15. Very nice pictures and it makes me want to go out again. Did some work to the bike today and nearly ready to go. Anyone feel like going on a camping trip? Maybe we can organize a tour and go camping for a few days,hotel is also ok but not as much fun. Sorry Chris,i am not trying to steal your topic.
  16. Can you tell me how to access these links you post? I would like to read them or watch them but there is no way i can open them. Lots of UK stuff but i would like to know about the winter 'Stalemate'
  17. Why do you think so many Thais sleep on the floor? Because it is cooler. One way of keeping the temperature of the ground around the house cool is shade!Trees! Too many people from other countries come live here and forget where they are when they build a house. It is all walls and nothing is letting the cool breeze in. It takes awhile before you can change that mindset.
  18. A lot of times i just camp out in the wild some where,no one cares. Usually if you offer to buy food and drink at a local place they will let you use their facilities. One of the great perks of living here,there is a lot of freedom yet a lot of people always find something to complain about.
  19. TAT could jump on this to promote Thailand, "You need to have your papers in order but at least you can have some nooky'! If they would make that illegal i would complain,the few rules we have to follow here?Easy,it takes just as long doing your 90 day report online as writing to complain about it on AN.
  20. A classic tear jerker.
  21. Not just a song,a real story and she is no longer alive. But it is ok.
