If  I wanted a  bike "I"  had to  buy it,  no one was going to buy it  for me, parents  buying their kids cars are sick, make them work for it stop giving it them on a plate.................  she probably   wa s looking at a  phone, seems it MUST be looked at about every 20 seconds in case they miss  the total cpra such as tik tok . simple  solution,  phone or  bike NOT  both.

I dont have any sympathy

Not enough details to warrent the sympathy vote BUT  your first paragraph totaly agree.  Every bike and car I owned I worked for the money to by it. 

I have managed to reach 75 and I think the cold of back home ( England ) the cold would affect me.

The only thing I have noticed lately is when getting out of this chair here where I spend a few hours every day is I push down on my knees when I get up . Going to right now , time to make brekky.

Oh I ; of course also push down on my knees when getting off the potty.

Sadly not the other way round

Another good thing is that mini van will take a while to fix. .

I rode my motorbike and if the lights worked at night. But this was England 1963 and the roads not the same as here.

What a thing to read eh and I thought my day was not going well.

How do you escalate a #2? ????

 

Reminded me of the one years ago. Chap had a dog turd in his hand and said ' Look what I nearly trod in '.

Maybe many 25 year olds die in their sleep but this actor beam is well known . Not by me though .

So cold last night up here I had to find a quilt to put on the bed .

A youngster of 28 . His mum I guess considers him a youngster.

I guess the easiest start is old fashioned Mead... 

I make ginger beer , the ginger grows in the garden , all purpose yeast and suger . Mead I will look in to.

The BiB do look exhausted . As for steam rollers not seen one since about 1957.

The point is not the best of the year but hold on to your snatch there is a thief about.

Does it say somewhere exactly where , I live halfway between Chiang Rai and Maesai. Would like to know more .

Wife is from Nan, went there. Hilly, green, and one of the most boring places on the planet I have ever been

Yes, another drunk tourist. 

Happens all the time, since birth of christ, tourist getting drunk and misbehaving in Pattaya. 

 

Sadly it was Pratumnak soi 5, this is one of the better locations, full of trendies, retirees living their lives peacefully. 

I ride past frequently, it has a population of exercise enthusiasts, walking, jogging and bicycle riding. 

 

The area is full of nice restaurants, heaps of yuppies spending their money.

 

It's sad to see this fool tourists showing his disrespect to the community. 

 

Go home, come back when you grow up. 

 

 

Since the birth of Christ tourists having been getting drunk in Pattaya.  Didn't know the place was that old.

My GF highly insults me once in a while when she says she thinks the USA and England are two names for the same country. Then she asks me again where I'm from.

Reminds me of Immigration.  Form ' Where you flom ?'   Answer UK , oops no , Great Britain , no ,how about England ? Yep that was ok/uk. Then ' Write here signature , no not that your full name '.

I think i am 75 and the only thing certain is I would rather wake up every day ( So far ) looking at the sun and mountains the other side of AH 2 then to the cold of England.

I thought the same thing.  I expected the story to say that after she was stabbed she was hit by a car or something.  The writing in these news articles leaves a lot to be desired most of the time.  Not sure where they get their writing staff from, presumably from the pool of retirees.

Sorry but I see nothing wrohg here.  What about ' He went to hospital after being hit by a car '.

He wouldn't go to hospital before being hit by a car . What makes more sense to you ' He went to hospital FROM being hit by a car'.

I like those Oz burgers from Makro , I think they are 89 B for a pair. 100% beef.  A lot of oil and water seems to appear when frying but after 10 mins they are lovely.

Not many on here will care for this but yesterday I was late getting out of bed and suddenly needed a burger hit. The round trip to 7/11 is less than 1k. a double pork and cheese burger 40 B and it was lovely. How a burger can be available in a plastic bag hanging up I can't imagine.

One said 'Is that a hose in yer pocket or are you just pleased to see us ? '

Come on baby light my fire .

My hotest days are over of which there is no doubt , what used to be my pride and joy is now a water spout.

So it matters not HOW you drive as long as you wear the right amulet.

Their bikes should be confiscated for 6 months, required to work in A&E for weekends for 6 months, then further six months doing rubbish picks on the roadside.

 

.................and still having to wear silly hats.
