Freelancers,wow,does that mean all the girls who hang outside the Nana hotel and around soi4,get it.

Be very careful of gabapentin if you have Tinitus[ ringing or whistling in the ears] i do but at a low enough level i can usually ignore it,however when i took gabapentin  it increased to an unbearable level,i could barely hear anyone talk.the only solution that night for sleep was to get so drunk i never made it to the bed,but collapsed in a drooling mess on the floor,it took a good 36 hours to leave my system so just a warning to any Tinitus suffers,sorry to go off topic a bit Cyril.

Did you get out of bed the wrong side this morning?

I guess that is his oldest daughter on the right,or a niece,whatever,she looks very attractive.

No eggs in my local tesco express yesterday,in fact foodwise not much of anything.

Of course they will not be stopping,Mercs,BMW's Porsche or the like.

This one?

 

Brilliant, Thanks Crossy.

Well i[touch wood] have been fairly lucky were i live regards power,water none from govt for near on two months.

I don't know if my g/f could get it,it's only for Thai's anyway,not for us 'stink falangs'.

I imagine it a bit like frank spencer when he left the tea urn running into the information computer at the dole office which then exploded when he was given a job there,if anyone could put the clip on i would be obliged,as i don't know how to.

I hope this does not mean i should turn off the air con.

Maybe it is time to consider switching to sustainable   plants best able to  survive under these types of conditions.

Most of them are,it's mainly the potted plants around the pool that suffer,must say the yucca's are enjoying the hot dry weather,most of the palms and mangoes okay,only a few that need constant water,as for the lawn,great if you like burnt brown,but no way am i watering that,it will have to wait for the wet season.

 Clearly not Phuket prices. A 52m well would cost nearer 200,000 baht here. Our water table is over 40m mark and I can only run pump max 30 minutes with 30 minute rest.

No ,wichianburi,Phetchabun province,middle of Thailand.

Yea seemed awfully cheap to me as well. Assumed that because this is Phuket News that he was located in Phuket but that can't be.

No i am in Wichianburi ,Phetchabun province bang smack in the middle of Thailand,things are much cheaper here.

That was a good idea. Mind telling how much that cost?

 

It's completely ridicolous that Phuket as one of the main tourist destinations cannot supply essentials like water to its residents. And this problem has been going on for how many years? The only way to explain it is to assume those who profit have a say.

Yes ,the charged me a flat rate of 15,000 baht for drilling,some charge by the metre,so this considering they went 52 metres was an excellent deal,i had to buy all the pipes ,submersible pump ect,which they put in.They found water at 22 metre but the boss was not satisfied so they drilled another 30,and hit what my gf described as the eye of the water,which i took to mean a large artesian deposit,all up about 26/27,000 baht,crystal clear water unlike the town water which stank and was a dirty brown. One tip remove the ballcock from your tank,takes forever to fill and if you forget and the bore is running and the ballcock shuts off the flow you will burn out the pump,also run the bore at about one hour periods then have a break,this allows water to fill the pipe again,leave for an hour or so then you can pump again.

There is no way they can know that. Thais cannot try to claim until 8am in the morning 28th March, anything being said at the moment is pure rumour. 

Agree,it 's not just working girls what about street vendors and a myriad of other thai's who have no offcial job.

In the Philippines Almost every security guard is packing at least a shotgun, and often much more.

When you got to convenience store there, you always see armed guard(s) in the front of the stores.

 

Seems to work well there, armed robberies are fairly rare.

For sure,i saw one at a burger outlet and a sign,'Thieves will get a lead burger'

Looking at the women,i don't think i would want a happy ending from them.

And what if it does not tail off by june,what then?

So another 'stink falang' is uncovered! Anutin must be clapping his hands in glee.

To be honest i am surprised as people can go there an drink in the evening as if it were a bar,okay all you have to do is have a bowl of appetizers and say oh we will eat later,better if they just make them take aways.
