Bad experience today . Thought I would pull into a auto electrical shop in Kanchanaburi to get a front and rear dash cam. All boxes priced and no known brand name. Eventually settled on one , shop wii fit it for free , come back in an hour. On return everything looked good , hard wired to ignition , connect to phone no problem. The journey home . which is 55 klms from Kanchanaburi was uneventful until 10 klms from home. The camera kept turning off and restarting again , it was on a continuous cycle. Wifey phoned up the shop , disconnect/reboot etc. still the same. Returned to shop , verdict camera was to hot due to the constant sunshine , but this is Thailand it will always be hot. After another hour of messing about and not looking like they were going to remedy the situation we called it a day. Told them to take it all out and return the money , and with reluctance that is what they did .

Is HD Prime down for anybody else ?

Well in a way I suppose it is newsworthy , Thai police actually doing what they are paid to do , a rare occurrence....😀

All the docs. he is asked to sign are more than likely in Thai , and maybe he is not signing anything , because he doesn't know what he is signing for. It is okay some body in the Police station telling you it is for this and that , and just sign here , but for his own reasons he doesn't trust them.

No mate , afraid not. I have looked all over it for just that , something with a % sign.

I am looking to change from Viriyah , but the new Insurance agent wants to know what % No claims do I have , if any. I have looked at my Viriyah Insurance doc. from last year and there is sign of the no claims anywhere . Does it appear on yours or is there somewhere I can find it. I don't want to ring Viriyah and ask , as I would like it to be on an official doc. from them.

Did an agent sort everything out for you , or did you have to run round getting accident reports etc ?

Taken from Roojai website.

I also read on their website that an agent comes to the scene , and I thought it would be he who collected all the docs. etc. But then I read after what is required by me yo make the claim and it appeared to be quite a list.

Is it cheaper to get your UK pension paid into Wise and transfer to Thailand , or having the pension paid into HSBC UK and then using Wise to transfer to Thailand ?

I was thinking about Roojai for my car insurance , but looking at the documents they want to make a claim I think it could be tricky/stressful. I was with another insurance company , and if there was an accident , an agent was sent out and he took care of everything , no stress. Maybe that is why Roojai is cheaper ?

Driving to close to the vehicle in front does not give you time to respond to the actions of the said vehicle , also , using your phone while driving will end with the same result......

" Mad dogs and Englishmen ".....

Tracking my delivery today by Kerry , " Courier has contacted the recipient 14:30hrs , not home , rescheduled " Called the wife up and asked her if Kerry had called her ? No , nobody had called since 12:00hrs and that was me. Went outside 5 mins ago (15:30hrs ) and Kerry rolls into the village , the wife jumps on her bike , catches him and asks him about the call earlier , he says he has not called her today and never calls till he gets near the house. Hands the package over , problem solved.

I also get the freezing and buffering problems on live TV. The last Video I tried to watch ( Argylle ) has no audio.

I didn't think you were allowed to fly if you were past 6 months pregnant ?

or he has never been caught before.

My sympathy is with the drivers of the vehicles he damaged. I hope the family foot the bill for repairs.

Tourist police catch.....Immigration Police catch.......Police Police catch..... forty winks.....😀

Will they put shutters in front of the bottles like they did cigarettes ?

Doesn't matter what nationality you are , if you are unfamiliar with the road , then drive/ride slower . I don't think it was the motor cycle failing to negotiate the bend , I think it would be the rider that failed to negotiate the bend and losing control of the motor cycle.

Well this is Ratchaburi's weather forecast..I do hope we get rain , but it doesn't look that way.

Thank you , I have. I explained to them how much of a problem i had getting through . Apology given etc. got everything sorted just about and also received an e mail apologising for the inconvenience etc.

expected and actually doing it are Two different things.

Why should the one with the best insurance pay if he is not at fault ? I pay my insurance to cover me if I cause an accident , not to pay somebody off if it is their fault.
