  1. Are you kidding me. Australia has 5 of the world's 10 deadliest spiders, go swimming in the seas and you might get permanently paralysed by the Irkunji jelly fish, bar-room brawls are far more likely, and you can die of thirst if you broke down in the outback. No, I wouldn't recommend setting foot in Australia. Nope, never!

    You forgot to mention the sharks, snakes and crocodiles cheesy.gif

    And the Middle East teenagers in Lakemba and Bankstown facepalm.gif

  2. Because what you described was exactly what I preempted in my post and decide to make an issue out of instead. Really it isn't much more then a trail if it has pot holes THAT in it.. I drove all over Phuket and surrounding areas all around Bangkok and up country and all the way from Phuket to Bangkok and back several times and many other places and never ran into a "road" that my car, with a heavy Lp tank in the trunk and 4 people in the car could't handle without bottoming out or whatever. Granted I didn't drive through big potholes, I usually drove around them, maybe that's the major difference?

    Have you ever driven up in Isaan on B roads,,?

    Obviously no cos you would have a shock at some of the stuff we deal with.......

    I have driven those roads and know exactly what you mean. When you are driving at 100klm/h on a road that has more potholes than tarmac, I'd like to know exactly how to avoid them, perhaps switch to hovercraft mode?

    If the road is so bad SLOW DOWN it is not hard to do unless you are Thai or Thai trained whistling.gif

  3. Seems the Good Folk at "We TV" in Chiang Mai either never got the message or if they did, they failed to take any notice of it.

    Just after Midnight Sunday Night, Australia Plus, formerly Australia Network on Channel 35, We TV Cable Service (I cringe when using the term "service" in connection with We TV) went BLANK. a little later, they started to transmit some "God Bothering" show from a Religious Group, then that went off and they put up their "Transmission Break" card on the screen.

    My wife phoned We TV mid afternoon on MONDAY and was simply informed that "we are fixing the problem." When she inquired if they were aware that the programmes from Australia now come from a DIFFERENT Satellite, the response again was simply, "we are fixing the problem."

    In short, We TV was living up to the company's usual High Performance Standard !

    We have suffered the same fate here in Cha Am

    At least I'm not alone when I think the cable service in this country is CRAP

  4. A day late and a dollar short... too late now, the barn's doors were left open and all the undesirables

    have already came in and are now deeply entrenched in Australia soil, home grown terrorist,

    sharia laws advocators and hate preachers, civil unrest mongers, they have got them all by now..

    Yeah, I don't understand why they want to STOP them leaving Oz to go play soldier with IS. I mean, stop them coming back by all means, but if they want to go make themselves a "martyr" it's a win-win innit?

    I agree

    Don't cancel their passports prior to leaving, let them get to where they want to go

    Then cancel the passport so the retards can stay in the Middle East

    Less dole money to have waste smile.png
