  1. I am sure if you had the same amount of bicycles on the road as motorbikes it would be carnage. Cyclists are far more dangerous than the average motorcycle due to the fact they are slower and don't keep up with traffic. Also they like to have 2 sometimes 3 abreast If you were on a motorcycle he probably would not of rear ended you as he probably thought you were going the same speed as him when he glanced up from his phone . If its a choice of a Honda wave or a pushbike on these roads I am sure the wave is safer as you can keep up with the flow of traffic. I wouldn't trust somchai in his nissan big m when I have is a plastic helmet and some tight lycra.
  2. When i think of cycling in Thailand i always remember the man attempting the around-the-world record and got hit by a pick up in Nakhon Ratchasima province. He had completed almost 5 years of cycling and about to finish later the same year “It was an accident caused by the driver’s recklessness. The road was straight and the cyclist was in his own lane,” the officer said. Imagine that you are in your final year of the 5 year quest only to get hit by a pick up in Thailand Goes to show how dangerous the roads are here. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/feb/22/chileans-round-the-world-record-cycling-quest-ends-in-death-on-thai-highway
  3. Must admit you can go around a tight corner and have 2 abreast blocking the road which may not have been the case here I would not risk riding a push bike here .
  4. Next door to us they let 2 dogs roam around and once the dog took a sh7t outside their house and had something thrown at it and got told to go and sh7t up the road(usually our house) I got tired of cleaning up their dogs sh7t so one day started playing a sort of mini golf with an old broom when they went out . Called it shi77y stick Got quite good, i could chip it just over their gate if the consistency was just right so they would walk in it when they got home. Hit the window once and stopped after that ,Moved a few years ago so all good
  5. Just looking at buying tiles i see some are huge and do like not having all the joins I think 90cm x 60cm They have larger ones which i prefer but i am reading they can lift Anyway to prevent this other than stand next to them while they tile?
  6. I went to test one but it was on charge.
  7. It depends on the ice car If I had a 2006 Mitsuhishi Mirage or a Tesla than I would definitely take the Tesla . If it was a decent car like a high end ice BMW or Mercedes then no matter what Ev I had it would be sat at home (charging probably)
  8. This is not what most EV drivers like to hear. They are doing more damage than people think.
  9. The OP already stated he did not want a EV and yet the same 2 or 3 posters drone on about them. Try to start a topic like I did a while ago stating I wanted a nice v6 or v8 non EV car and they kept going on about how comfy and quiet their <deleted>e Ev is. I get it you love to sit and wait to charge your vehicle in the middle of nowhere but not everyone does. And yes I have driven a EV which is exactly why I don't wish to own one. It was quick but had no actual feeling and was so quiet I might as well have been on a quick train. Bit like cooking a steak in a microwave. Yes it will cook quicker but sometimes that's not what you want. Please in the future if someone states they do not want an EV then do not keep going o about your battery powered rocket. Not everyone likes them.
  10. Vinny41 just ignore him He does this to every thread and turns it into a EV thread. I was asking about a sofa the other day and half expected him to start talking <deleted> about how good his bygt salmon is.
  11. That is nice but did you miss the bit about all the luggage/kids/dogs.
  12. I thought as soon as I saw the title that the Ev brigade/ parade would be along. Babbling on about how their bygt seal or whatever its called can get to loei and back to Phuket in 2 full charges.
  13. For the love of God, Please don't get him started .
  14. Yes got 2 scratching posts and various beds around the house but still likes to scratch the sh7t out of my sofa /bed and sleeps anywhere but her cat beds
  15. This would be perfect. 10 year warranty as well many thanks everyone never though of Ikea
  16. Only thing i don't like about electric sofa"s is the worry of getting fried .
  17. Now the 3 seater looks good is that at Ikea?
  18. I will have to have a look at Ikea thanks
  19. I have gone through a few sofa's here Last one was a L-shaped sofa that was 29k and started to flake like a reptile shedding its skin after 1 year Bought at a well known furniture store. Going to go for cloth this time mainly because we now how a cat and that it ripping the only parts of the fake leather sofa that are not cracked Is it worth getting something like this as bought another that all the foam flattened in a few months and you might as well sit on the floor. Starting to look at la-Z-boy sofas but much prefer the larger type and would need two 3 seaters
  20. Just about to have £40k sent to my Kasikorn bank Will this be taxed as i sent £20k just before the new year before what everyone said would be fine as it was before the start of the year and it was not taxed. Thinking of doing it in smaller amounts maybe 4 x £10k over the next month
  21. Yes my wife is the same looking if the traffic lights will go Red in front even after the slightest of beeps.
  22. hope not by wearing them
