I’m glad my wife doesn’t drive as she only seems to have megasleeps.

Well done Peerapong, more people like you needed.

A very large percentage of drivers dont give a rats a++e about disabled parking places, just think i can park there no problem.

I agree 100%. I do act, but I don't publicise it, or say where, or how, for obvious reasons. Needless to say that if there is no CCTV present, and only if I have seen that the driver is able-bodied (and especially if it's an expensive car). I only do this as nobody else will act as the poor old security guards are afraid of these people and won't (can't) enforce the rules.

"bend of death".

Oh no.

It's on Jomtien 2nd rd at the fairly new high rise "The Grand" (monstrous twin tower)

Can't tell how often I passed there.

But bend of death????

Every bend can mean death for hools/drunks/racers.

Not excluding that there was 3rd party in the way.

Bend? All I can see is a very slight curve.

Thanks for the correction on the TetraPak (if that's what brand are used in Thailand) but the coffee cups cannot be recycled.

Brick pack for fluids  e.g. milk yoghurt fruit juice etc.... all possible replacements for plastic ...

I think these are wax lined (or something like that) so that they don't go soggy and are therefore not recyclable. The same as take away 'paper' cups from coffee outlets. These are all single use.

Blimey, April 1st sure comes around quick in these parts.

It was probably swiftly transferred to the THAI catering department.

Khok Khram Police Station

Apt name.

They never will be as lots of people have to get there in cars and buses and stuff.

He wasn't suffering from mental health issues!  Why are so many posters claiming that he was?...

"77kaoded said the man was suffering from a skin disease that has caused him to be stigmatized by society. 

They speculated that his inability to get work due to the diease had led to the suicide attempt". 

The disease and subsequent "stigmatized by society" would've almost certainly affected his mental health. As he was seen on the same bridge before he should've been looked after, and not sent home.

Earlier yesterday morning the same man was seen on the bridge and was talked round by rescue services who feared he was going to jump. He went home after that. 

Wow, the mental health system here is one to be envious of. Not.

I need to start going to the same bars as you. Lol.

7 services and under 20,000 kilometres? The service people must love you.

Every six months. I like to keep my car up to scratch; it may have only done 20,000km but it also spends a fair amount of time in traffic, some of the worst conditions for an engine and gearbox.

Thats the idea of expanding the airport.......

But expansion would be based on demand, surely. From what I've been reading on TV, the tourist numbers are down. You don't produce more cars, for example, when demand is low. 

I waited 11 weeks, then I resubmitted the required documents and the user name and password arrived five days later.

Honda do mine each time I take it in for a service (every six months). I'd rather trust them than a jet wash crew. That said, I had my old car done by the boys at Shell and it was fine (160 baht for the engine IIRC). Never had a problem. It looks very nice afterwards as well. Go for it.

He’ll probably wish he was dead when he finds out what he’s faced with.
