Totally over-dramatic, but irritating at times....ok to watch, if you have nothing to do.

Guess it's okay if you're a tourist and don't live here. Otherwise, who cares?

I love the Elephant Museum in Samut Prakarn - the circular base is the museum and then you walk up a staircase inside the leg of the three-headed elephant and the body is a beautiful temple. I really don't like anything traditional like temples so it was a surprise for me to like this one so much.

For modern buildings I think Chaeng Wattana building with the immigration department has a spectacular roof, it's always nice to enjoy the vastness of the inside.

Not heard of the Elephant Museum. I'll Google it and grab some photos.

Agree with you about immigration at Chaeng Wattana. Not too much there in the way of food, though.

... Here's that new business park near Lad Phrao: ...

That pic has been photo-shopped as well as other elements in the photo,

Ha! Sussed.

It fooled me for about thirty seconds.

The Siam Intercontinental Hotel Bangkok in 1970 (Now is Siam Paragon mall)

Met my first wife there, and like the building gone.

Thanks for sharing that. I vaguely remember it. Never went inside, though.

Class cannot be purchased!

"Cease, ye prudes, your envious railings,

Lovely Burns has charms: confess!

True it is that she had one failing:

Had a woman ever less?"

Nice. That was that Scottish guy. Can't remember his name.

Class cannot be purchased! Ain't no class here, bro. Only money and face. The fantasy is all in your head.

What's a mucker, what's brown sauce, what's sarsons?

Are you from another planet?

British food. They put it on steaks and burgers. Same with mayonnaise.

I like that concrete one. You know the one I mean.

You mean the one next to 7-11. It's okay, but nothing special.

Here's that new business park near Lad Phrao:

Robot Building. In case of giant monster attack it will activate and defend the city.

Weird shit, bro. Here's the elephant building:

Perhaps I have been remiss in not thanking the Dude guy for promoting my blog. Thanks also to the rest of you for your kind words.

My pleasure. See if you can check out a blog by a Romanian guy in Thailand. I think he's an archer. He writes well. I'll send you the link if I come across him again.

Saw the photos of yours in the Chiang Rai forum. The ones with the skies. You mention your camera. With better gear, you'd be more able to capture those ice crystals. The photo you've posted looks as though it suffers from some sort of chromatic aberration. A better lens would (should) be able to handle this kind of subject matter more proficiently.

Are the schools out on holiday?

Cool post, man. Constructive. Witty. Thoughtful.

I didn't write it.
