    The only farang? Yeah, I'm one of two farang living in a 35 km long valley in rural Lamphun province, so pretty much. :smile:

     

    I lived at an ex GF's house just off hwy 1033, 5 minutes past the railway for a few weeks, burnt through about 30GB of mobile data

     

    Didnt realise WW2 POWs were involved in the railway around there

    A lot more aware than that. I have seen many Thais who won't move till well after a light has turned green as it is well known that many Thais will run the red. Certainly nothing new. Having said that you put countdowns on traffic lights in Australia like you do in Thailand and the chaos would be just as great. Both from those trying to run the red and jump the green.

     

    I was next to a couple of tourists on rental dirt bikes at a countdown light, they had their eyes glued to it and took off as soon as it went green.

    They were lucky, the 5 or 6 cars and a bus running the red saw them and breaked

    They were very concerned that I would get in the car and drive down 600 km to find a spot.

     

    I had them pleading with me not to go when i said i was doing a road trip Chiangmai to Mukdahan, did the trip in 1 day

    I guess for them it was like saying i was going to drive from Singapore to Scotland
