  1. Back in the days of Smoking rooms at Airports, I was a very heavy Smoker then, I entered into a Smoking room at an Airport, I could'nt believe how those in there could Breathe, a Yellow Fog, that was one of the reasons I stopped Smoking,
  2. "Park and Ride" is the best idea, Park your car in a Field around Sukhumvit Rd area for free, where Minibuses wait to drive you into Town for a modest fee, especially when its Festival time
  3. Traffic Wardens & Parking Meters could be an answer, but with these short tempered Thai's many would be Wardens would be shot dead if given a Ticket or Clamped, & Meters stolen and sold for scrap
  4. My (Thai) Mrs.. thinks that when they Paint anything on the Roads here its to make the roads more beautiful...she does'nt agree with it being for Road signs, as her thinking is Thai people would'nt understand what those signs meant...she's probably right there....Thick or what !!!
  5. What about these Shopkeepers who line the Road outside thier shop with Plastic Chairs etc to keep the front of their shop clear, and dont forget Beach Rd. with the Kerbside full of Rental Motorbikes and Cars, been like this for many years ........Brown Envelopes no doubt
  6. Do something about the Brakes, and the kid while your at it
  7. Wow, whatever next, someone will be handing in 1 Million Baht Cash found on the back seat of a Bangkok Taxi next
  8. Thai's and their "Me First" attitude... Pedestrian crossing or not, doubtful she even recognise a Pedestrian crossing
  9. would she know what a pedestrian crossing looked like
  10. Cause of the crash is still under investigation ?, Are those investigating qualified to know the difference between a Brake pedal, and a Whiskey bottle, doubtful,....Licence taken away doubtful........... fine minimal, dont do it again .. and back to work to injure some more people
  11. A Thai man stopped to let Pedestrians cross the road ? thats gotta be a first
  12. They're all stupid enough without a gun in their hands
  13. What is that Yellow stuff, supposed to be Cheese, but its not ... some Restaurants sell a dish 'Cordon Bleu" that has it wrapped in Chicken or Pork,........no taste
  14. Yes the threshold as i understand it is, ..........0 to 150,000 pa is exempt from Tax
  15. My( Thai ) Mrs has a few Cogs missing too
  16. Boracay Island ( @ White beach) I'm told is one of the best locations to holiday within the Philippines, I will try it this year
  17. There is a couple, if u google it
  18. As a Thai Teenager told me, .....to wear a helmet, or show a Red light at the back of your Bike "you're chicken"," "Thai's not afraid to die same Farang"... Hearing this, his parents smiled
  19. The SUV driving "Without due care and attention", he drove across the path of several cars, and that motorbike without checking the oncoming traffic, so whats to investigate, if u have any sort of road traffic knowledge !! Both of those girls were of legal age to be riding a motorbike at 15 years of age, which imo is far too young, Licence or no licence, it doesnt alter the stupid way they all drive, kids, adults, police, they all drive without thinking
  20. My Thai Mrs regularly calls a number that she once said can help with heavy smoke in the area, always the answer is "we investigated your complaint but we could not find the location..too lazy to go and look is more like the right answer
  21. These hospital should get asked Why do they charge foreigners extra, I ask everytime & just get a smile, especially now foreigners are being told u to pay tax when millions of their own workers pay no income tax
  22. I wanted to send a Faulty Hearing Aid to the UK for repair until i found out it would be subject to import Tax on its return to Thailand. Using DHL (Naklua) it would have cost 950b, I went next door into FED EX who quoted 3000b both companies quoting same delivery times, both stated, No Batteries to be sent.. , Wonder why so much price difference..
