A Danish mate I met when I fairly new to the Pattaya bright lights told me , "DON'T marry the women and DON'T buy a house". As he explained the pitfalls,with both, I realized it was the best advice as a newbie I ever got concerning the LOS.
Yep, nothing to do with Thailand .My friend runs a car workshop in Australia and has had to request customers take their cars to specific dealers[BMW is one] as they cannot get access to the codes. Certain codes on my 2019 Triumph 1200 cannot be cleared with a mate's code reader[which cost 8K] but need to go to the dealship.
WHAT ? Unbelieveable.And,this spoilt brat looks like being the next president. Meglamaniac Trump vs Years past his use by date Biden.Poor America and Poor world.
Great.Like Thailand hasn't enough problems.I remember when they got one in Australia." 'The safe guards' are SO rigorous no organised crime or corruption could ever take take place.[They said!] How did that work out ? ROTFLOL!
Again 'back in the day" I used to ride down beach road at 8.00am with very little traffic around.Take a relaxing ride out to Rayong or Sattahip or just Jomtien for a coffee .I doubt I'd ride in Patts at all these days .
20 yrs ago was different [of course] You still had everything you needed,but the joint wasn't bursting at the seams. But the whole country was different . Udon much better "back in the day'' too IMO.
