Ah, where have we heard this before. No responsibility.... The source of many problems in this country. To which we can add.... ignorance!

What were you drinking and how many did you have?

Judging from some of the posts on this thread they were well oiled.

Fully synthetic is best, unless one is referring to Ladyboys!

Problem with these trackers is limited range and battery life. Looking for one with country wide range which connects to the vehicle battery.

Yikes! DO NOT use thinner! Use paraffin or flushing oil for cleaning engine parts.

Adding to the difficulties of containing it, hundreds of millions of Chinese will be traveling domestically and abroad during the Lunar New Year holiday that starts this week.

Cancel Chinese New Year. restrict travel out of China.

So long as its not Bird Flu, I do not want that again.

Work Permits?

Do not give them ideas.

Surely porn in public is a restricted occupation for Thais only.

when are the authorities going to do something serious about sugar cane burning?

You know the saying; "Don't hold your breath waiting." Though in this case holding your breath may be a requirement if you do not have a smog mask!

Lots o luck getting the Govt to do anything except line their own pockets. As for the farmers; ignorance is bliss.

Never have I seen a country shoot itself in its own foot like this one.... Paradise lost.... Sad.

Synthetic costs a lot more but is worth it. Normal oil molecular structure breaks down in time under heat and load. Synthetic does not and so protects better. Make sure you get the correct grade for your application as per owners manual. Do not forget to change the filter as well.

Er thanks .... I think! All the info is in Thai. So far cannot find what range it has or how long the battery lasts? (Needs to be the type that connects to the car battery).

Have you got one of these yourself?

When it comes to the point of needing air purifiers, it is time to leave.

Hmmm thinks.... Anyone know where I can buy a GPS tracking device? Then if the car gets stolen at least I can track it down, presumably with an iphone.

Lazada is your friend  "car tracking device"; from 42 baht on up.

Thanks, but on lookiing into this, so far I find they have limited range and / or battery power. I need something more professional...... A tracker that works long distance, can be followed on a iphone map and continues to function for at least 3 months.... Suggestions anyone?

(Yikes! If Lady Roadrunner ever finds out about trackers it will curtail my short time visits.)

Though he is not exactly skint, I hope he finds out what life is like in the real world that the rest of us struggle to survive in.

Only 10,000 baht? They might turn you away at the border as you are obviously not one of the rich billionaire Indians or Chinese. .... Thailand no want cheap charlie Farangs no more.

You have not been here for a while, things have gotten expensive, unless you are not planning on having much fun? I could easily blow 10,000 in one day.

And so the engine took revenge for Somchai's bad driving and lack of maintenance.

It clearly shows the teacher striking the student and calling her a bitch.

Despite solid evidence, this being Thailand, nothing will be done. I suspect if the teacher had been a Farang, there would have been a totally different reaction.

The Tantrics had a similar explanation about sex and for having prostitutes in Indian temples.

The above seems reasonable to me.

As for the Thais... proof that money and religion are not a good mix.
