i would never drive in BKK......let alone hang out there....but thats me ???? Been driving in BKK Since the early 2000's... before sat nav. It used to get interesting... I'd find myself lost and driving around until I saw a sign I recognised... helped me learn the city. Really, driving in BKK is piece of pish... its just traffic, thats all it is, like anywhere else. But, as some have pointed out - make a wrong turn and you have to be prepared for it to take a while to recover... I think thats why many drive so poorly, they are so hesitant and scared of making a wrong turn... Or they make a wrong turn and want to U-turn in a really daft spot etc... Sat-navs are incredible for those who are able to comfortably drive in traffic in a new area without feeling panicked or stressed... I can see why the Op really wants to get his sorted.

My password is stored in Bitwarden, it's correct. Troll someone else, smart@>se. Don't get so tightly wound up... it's just a pishtake.. Lazada / Shopee... they are both just as good and bad as each other... As soon as something abnormal happens its a PITA to sort it out. I find Lazada easier to navigate than Shopee... thats the only real difference IMO. Years ago, I actually ended up just setting a second Lazada account because a repetitive niggle with the main account... this is a viable solution if you have a working second e-mail.

Its true... my Son had the trotts a few months back... horrendous, I nearly had a heart attack !!!

You mean other than having to use the correct password ??

Do you mean that putting ice in whisky is sacrilegious? Can't be any worse than ice in BEER, yuk. I can take any resistance! That would depend on the Whisky with ice is certainly better than no Whisky at all. With a good Whisky adding ice is said to be sacrilegious. Adding ice is a sin I'm sometimes guilty of... never when having an excellent whisky to enjoy over a period of time... but when drinking a little quicker, with friends in a social setting etc... then I don't think a Speyside or Highlands single malt with ice is not going to upset the Whisky gods too much.

Erm... you're going to face resistance with that...

Oh dear... it was pretty basic, but, you're not smart enough to get it...

I think that would be the length. while 70 and 90 being depth and width. Oh dear... Of course it is... I was being daft - no need to take such obviously facetious comments so literally !!!...

Hardly Olympic size eh? There's a lot of attention being directed towards the benefits of taking regular ice-baths... Perhaps an interesting idea... (if not somewhat of an expensive habit to maintain).... I used to play a lot of football... less so now that I'm older (just a couple of times per week)... I've often thought of getting an 'ice bath' set up to aid recovery.... (walking the following morning after a game is often painful !!)...

But how the 4..k would you get out? 555 For some folk I've seen walking around... how would they get in ??? (70x90 !!)...

The assurance that you won't so openly make an 'utter' tool of yourself in person is noted !!!

190 is the length, Thanks.. but are you you sure ???.... 'cos these 'standup bath-tubs' will soon become a thing !!!

I've been pick-pocketed twice... (both in European cities)... ... both occasions I was drunk but still alert.... ... both occasions I felt the pick-pocketers hand go into my pocket.... ... both occasions the pick-pocketers were female (pretending to flirt).... ... both occasions I was able to grab their wrist and take my money back... Neither situation did I consider attacking the women. In both situations I was aware of the fact that they may not be alone. If it was a guy I might have felt differently, but again, its unlikely they were alone. So... I'd like to say, I'd react and 'kick the s#it out of them'... but the reality is different... IF someone tried to 'grab my back' I'd perhaps react physically to prevent that from happening. If they had a weapon, then just let it go. Each situation could be so different and these hypothetical situations so full of 'whatifery' that giving a real response is impossible.

Valid point... I'm sure you are providing them with more than sufficient 'clicks' when double checking every link in every thread to load yourself up with ammunition while contributing nothing to the actual topics other than creating an argumentative atmosphere.... Its fine to make a correction - but to make the same correction repetitively on so many threads highlights issues.

Just a little bit out there on the spectrum !!!! It must be hilarious watching you in social situations !!!

About 1.17 tonnes of water (when full)... Should be fine even on a 2nd floor etc... I've seen plenty of similar structures in Japan hotels rooms (onsen type baths). Obviously ensuring they are correctly sealed and drain correctly is of key importance particularly if in a condo etc... I think it can be a concrete construction, sealed, then tiled...

& 190cm is a bit deep for a bath too....

Yes I read the opening post, I did not follow the link to read more. Gawd... What's the point of asking already answered questions if you can't be bothered to read the full report? Gawd indeed.... How typically pedantic of a cardboard personality.

This sort of comment is just mind-boggling...

That is covered in the full OP. Thank you.... I had to leave a mistake to give you an opportunity to jump over something... I know how much you love reading the full Op and criticising those who haven't. That does beg the question - why do these Opening Posts (articles) never just quote the full Op in the first place... (rhetorical).

and... I very much hope the pickup driver is caught, charged and made to pay for the damage caused. That said... the bike looks like a GS1200 (or 1250) and with a proper drop kit on it (as most seem to decked out with) there are 'made to be dropped' thus I suspect just cosmetic damage. Still, not very nice to have your pride and joy scratched because of a complete and utterly careless ayhole...

Absolutely agree... we've got to be prepared for anything. I don't think the motorcyclist was holding his line knowing the pickup was there (not suggesting you are suggesting so btw). I think the motorcyclist was completely surprised and the motorcyclist only knew the pickup was there once there was impact. ... Who does a right shoulder blind spot check when entering a sharp left hand turn ? I'm wondering IF in the same situation I would have or could have avoided that... and I really don't think I could have... its one of those situations only avoidable with the benefit of 20/20 hindsight.

Valid point on the oil risk. The motorcyclist is still 'commanding his lane'... The idiot driver was.. well, just an idiot driver attempting an impossible pass he had no right to attempt.

With this statment... [I reckon there was enough room for the bike to keep left, letting the pick up to get back in the lane. ] The implication is that the pickup was poorly positioned and did not provide room for the pickup. I reads to me that you are placing responsibility on the motorcyclist for his road positioning.
