Ads for alcohol forbidden? Check.

Drinking beer on the beach prohibited? Check.

 

So let's put a big freaking CHANG logo on the chair. It's only advertising mineral water, you know.

and NO SMOKING from 1st November !!

I kept all my satang coins in a free piggy bank tin provided by a Thai bank. The tin sat on top of my fridge.

 

"No good " my wife insisted.

 

"Bank not want. Shop not want. You bah. "

 

When the tin was pretty much full, and must have weighed around 2kg, it mysteriously disappeared.

 

Wife .... "I give my daughter ... she keep, take bank. Kop khun khup."

 

5555555  I'm thinking 2 kg of satangs probably converts into a reasonable sum of free baht.

 

Sunday project. How much does a 0.25 satang weigh ? How many in 2 kgs ?

 

 

alot !!!

Typical total disregard by Thai drivers (both the car and the motorcycle) of normal rules of the road and simple driving laws.  I particularly get frustrated with all of the motorcyclists who do whatever they want and always get away with it.

 

me too especially when is indicating to TURN LEFT and the STUPID IDIOT undertakes ....why NOT wait until I have turned LEFT?? They are brain dead are all MOTOR BIKE RIDERS

I reckon if you added a mandatory police attitude to anyone not wearing a helmet who gets fined more than once for not wearing one, should not be aloud to ride a motorbike for a year, add another two years for every time they get caught riding a bike without one.

 

Less split heads on the road saves lives.

and what  about 4 or 5 on motorbike.....and twenty in back of pickups??

why not  use google for options??

I think it was the best way to stop them... Would it have been better to shoot at the tires.....

Maybe now people think think twice, if they consider to run from the police.

they would NOT hit the tyres !!

*Illegal parking

 

*Obstruction while parking  (Hard one that)

 

*Bike riders with no helmets

 

*Running red lights

 

*Vehicles running the wrong way down roads.

idiot drivers tail gating

 

Idiot drivers speeding

I've done so many times in the past. Good streams can be hard to find and invariably they end up going to shit, in my experience.

 

200 baht a month for an official stream that doesn't suffer from buffering is terrific value. 

i use one and it is good quality....very little buffering....you NEED good internet connection/provider

I've been using Bein sports connect for about a month now. I'm very happy with it. It's so much better than the previous streaming service I used (iLikeHD), which was also more expensive. 

 

It is not perfect, but there is rarely any buffering. It sometimes drops out (which is most likely my internet connection rather than them), but a quick screen refresh usually fixes it. The catch-up service is also very handy for the late night CL games.

 

For 200 baht a month, it's great value.

 

WHY NOT use a streaming site via internet then it is free

Just because the motorbike rider was riding without a license or too young to get a license does not mean that the truck driver is not guilty of negligence. The negligent truck driver would not get a pass because he killed an underage rider. 

the kid SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ON THE ROAD....and why was the kid out so LATE ??? A kid of this age should be tucked up in his bed.....!!

Sugar tax not high enough.

While they're at it, time to lower the tax on the wonderful HEALTH promoting drink -- WINE. You know, the real stuff, not the faux crap being promoted here full of sugar juice. 

you mean RED WINE of course ??
