  1. Changing every two years sounds a joke to me, especially for a normal car. If you see cracking on the sidewalls or notice a drop in performance then change them. Otherwise , they're likely taking you for a ridem. Regarding the battery, Honda were always telling me to change mine with my old car, what felt like every time that the battery went out of the one year warranty. I did the first time, but after that I went on how easy it was to start up. Psychologically, if they tell you it needs changing youre more likely to be concerned about it. I've not changed the battery on my ranger yet, and I won't change the battery until the truck itself tells me it's conserving battery (deep sleep mode or doesn't let me start it through the app)
  2. Based on how dark people have their windows tinted, the driver probably didn't even see her.
  3. As you are going past Kalasin, I would recommend stopping by Wat Phuttha Nimit (Wat Phu Khao). It's one of my favourite temples in the country.
  4. Erm, no... For general RTAs I find Thai people are very calm but this is not always the case. The law needs to consider all cases, hence my exception. Regarding being a coward, well not every man or woman is brave enough, or you could say foolish enough, to try and hold off the crowd.
  5. The only if or but that I think is acceptable is the fear of being lynched. In that case, the driver should go to the nearest police station immediately, not whenever it's convenient
  6. It would make more sense for you to make a poll. Have I ever hit a woman? No. Would I ever hit a woman? It's impossible to say as I have no idea what lies ahead. Hopefully, I am never forced to hit anyone again though.
  7. While I generally like the idea of it, the toilets and the noisy track while trying to sleep put me off.
  8. Maybe it was down to the plastic straw comment. I don't know of anyone who has ever carried around a straw to have a sniff. It's either a rolled up note or on a key.
  9. It's amazing how often I get asked if I know of any good single foreigners for them or their friends. I got asked this earlier in the week in a pet shop in front of the male staff. I said no, which is the truth, and told her to find a good Thai man.
  10. I automatically prepare a new tm30 for each extension of stay. They've requested it each year for quite a while now at my local immigration. I renewed my extension this week and it went very smoothly. Walked in, pretty much straight to a counter, she stamped away for a minute or two, took my picture and money, then out of the place in under 10 minutes. I'd hate to be at one of the busy places.
  11. I don't understand why the schoolgirl didn't stop at the broken line. You can see she stopped before it, but then accelerated out. Was there a solid white line before that on the road too, potentially a traffic light at the junction with it being that far back, or just bad road markings?
  12. I thought he had a lot of good songs. They are also good for karaoke as they're easy to sing and most people know them: เคยบอกว่ารักกัน, รอยยิ้มนักสู้, นานเท่าไรก็รอ, เคยรักฉันบ้างไหม, อมพระมาพูด, ผู้ชนะ, ใจสั่งมา are a few crowd pleasers.
  13. If I was sweaty I would, but I don't sunbathe so I don't. I don't like getting burnt, so I'll put on my stinger suit before leaving the hotel room and then just jump in.
  14. The worst thing I see is motorbike riders with a baby in hand or a very young child. It terrifies me to think what would happen if they crashed into me.
  15. Recently I have been wondering why normal private room Thai karaoke (no ladies) is so expensive. There's quite a few restaurants with the facilities in my area but charge at least 300baht per hour for a small room. Surely this is pricing out most customers. An extra 1,500 baht per night on top of the food and drink is a lot and stops us from going.
  16. Yes, but he still sharpens blades, which is the main thing for me at this time. When he gets more soaps in I'll buy the one I like.
  17. Do you use a toner after your shave? That should help a bit with the oily skin. I use Kiehls calendular, but my skin isn't that oily. One item I do recommend is Kiehls oil eliminator face scrub (green tube) that I use when I feel the build up. It's fantastic for my skin.
  18. I bought some stones too but I didn't dare use them in case I ruined the blades. The price including return delivery was 450 baht last time I used him.
  19. That's AI for you. The concluding paragraphs tend to be the worst as they all repeat the same rubbish.
  20. My thoughts too. He's a good guy, but it made sense for me to buy from home due to the price differences. When he gets some more Taylor of Bond Street shaving cream in, I'll buy from him. I've tried whitebeards shaving cream, but I wasn't impressed, same with their pre shave oil. What do you use?
  21. His ID is SiamWetShave. He'll ask for a picture to know what he's dealing with and then give you his ibox to post it to with the price and expected time.
  22. I bought my Dovo straight razors and strop while in the UK and brought them over. For the soap I use Maniculus, found on Lazada, which is adequate. I have a contact through Line who I send my razors to for sharpening.
  23. So paid sex with a freelancer from a club is fine but not sex with a freelancer from the street? I did try reading the act you mentioned, but understand the wording doesn't appear to be my strong point.
  24. To help me understand, could you give some examples of circumstances when it would be legal to offer or pay for sex here?
  25. I thought the idea was to pay for the lady's taxi home, or give her some money for fuel rather than to pay for sexual services. Paying for sexual services is prostitution...
