    These are where you can take your car or motorscooter to renew your annual license sticker... they will test emissions, offer insurance (basic insurance is mandatory)... you can also ask for Class 1 insurance... Once you pay they will go to the local land office and obtain the new license sticker for you and you can come back in a day or two to collect... Very efficient and not a ripoff at all...

    One tricky thing is that the expiration month is an abbreviation in Thai (next to the year) Use the following to translate... (The sticker above expires in April)

    ..that third '5' looks a bit suss.

    Hard to say what the bug is, but most insects have a life cycle of egg, larvae and adult...or something to that effect. I am not an entomologist so I may have left out a stage.

     

    Anyway, my point is killing the adults will not eliminate the infestation. You have to keep killing the adults before they reach maturity & lay more eggs. The eggs and larvae you don't see will turn into adults & then you kill them. So on & so on. You will need to determine what they are (use the www) then determine the life cycle & keep killing the adults. You will have to keep this up until they are gone. The important point is you have to kill the adults before they mature & lay more eggs.

     

    In the absence of determining what they are & what their life cycle is, you might just spray every 5 to 7 days until they are gone.

     

    I had bugs in my coconut palms. I identified the bug and determined the life cycle...sprayed every 10 days for about 2 months. No more bugs, but I still have to spray at least once a month to kill any other bugs that may take up residence.

     

    ..heat lamp will drive them away.

    I've worked in slaughterhouses - not vastly different to what you describe, just done with more privacy.

     

    I don't eat pork, lamb or beef (or dog, horse or octopus), but I do eat chicken and fish, as subjectively they appear to have less capacity to feel stress and fear. 

    ..i went to an abattoir once..asked why was there 2" of water on the floor..in come the piggies then one of the workers through a long rod on the floor and turned on the power..all fell down stunned then off to the butchery area where strung up and as previously stated throats slit and bled out...but no blood curdling screams to haunt you.

    The bag was obviously out of view of the man on the far side of the table, it was behind the bag owners leg and likely also hidden by the table top.

    It also couldn't be seen by the woman on the left unless she had x-ray vision as it was hidden by the owner.

    The bag was positioned behind the owner particularly when he leaned forward to eat so I was out of his peripheral vision.

    The girl to the owners right did not have a clear view of it unless she turned to look at it and she has long hair that fell forward over the side of her face when she moves to eat obscuring her view.

    Apart from all that they all had a great view of the theft, that's why they saw nothing!

    ..well we have no idea of the angle of their vision as the camera is above them.

    What, like being held down, mouth wedged open, whilst booze was poured in? Being forced to drink is a lot different from being persuaded to drink. If you don't want to drink, don't drink and if that means choosing new friends, do that.

     

    Right girls . . . let's try to be 100% honest and truthful. If your drinking contributed to your being groped, it has to be more your own fault than that of the boozy boys that you could, if you'd made the effort, have avoided. You don't have to walk within arms length of these cretins and most sensible folk would simply make sure they didn't. There's keeping out of trouble and there's asking for trouble . . . the choice is yours, more than Thailand's boozy New Year.

    ...a lot of them i see are pissed, gyrating and cavorting..still wrong to touch the goods.

    Skinny runt....:sad:

    ..Im amazed at the group eating..3 of them had clear vision of the bag on the stool..the girl to the right looked at it several times..the guy to her right was looking directly at it..the girl on his right also had a clear view of it..and the owner would have had the bag in the edge of his peripheral vision..i guess being busy eating they didnt see the obvious..boy what a risky act. Easily identifiable by the group as the thief made no attempt to disguise his appearance..and a slim white Caucasian with a black hat..well what can you say.
