  1. Hua Hin is an army town, and the army have been in power long enough to get this done. They have all sorts of plans to develop the coastline south of the city with a new high(ish) speed train line and airport who would bet against them?
  2. Pressure Reducing Valves, Brass, Iron & Steel | RS (rs-online.com)
  3. I can tell you last night when I went out it was like a ghost town, with lots of the bars in the 3 new entertainment areas looking permanently closed, and the few foreigners i saw out and about fitting into an 'older' demographic.
  4. Be careful what you wish for - the old guard have provided us with a very benign long term stay environment. Would the youngsters be as generous?
  5. Construction and tourism the 2 most polluting activities known to man coming to beach near you soon!
  6. In my opinion Andreannas does a very good Sunday roast. https://goo.gl/maps/3nrdBomfMuwiBomb6
  7. Is there a case to be made that this type of thing negatively effects the locals perception of other brits in thailand, and gives ammunition to those here that would like to see fewer foreigners in the kingdom?
  8. They will pass some meaningless law that anyone who wants to use it will ignore. What are they going to do, take out the satellites?
  9. Surely the responsibility for this lies with the higher ups who allowed a junior staff member access to very sensitive information?
  10. If I was in charge of China I would not want my citizens going to Thailand in case they got to like the herb too much. ????
  11. My gf was able to quit using hers so we can only conclude this is all about trying to keep the tax money at the expense of peoples health.
  12. When you take into account the lack of training (at least by uk standards) the locals drive very well indeed.
  13. Why? Do you think what might come after will be better than now?
  14. The eco<deleted>wits will be on their way there hoping to capture the co2 coming out of the mountain and burying it under the sea ????
  15. The shops that do the annual check have contacts in land transport so might be able to help.
  16. Air quality is so bad in Hua Hin today, PM2.5 > 100 I have to stay indoors with an air filter and the A/C on. If you are in any way sensitive to pollution find somewhere else.
  17. Do you have any evidence for this claim? https://www.bbc.com/news/60477712
  18. Cities are no place for private vehicles - just look at the dystopia that is Bangkok with horrible air and communities separated by huge motorways.
  19. Check out HNoMS Helge Ingstad to see how difficult and expensive this would be.
  20. Looks like this loan agreement could be enforceable? https://thailand.themispartner.com/business-contracts/loan-agreement/
  21. Does the roi shorten if fitting to a new build? Can we save money on the roof by fitting solar at the same time?
  22. Because the answer to this question is unknowable in advance the consensus is selling everything and buying new here is the way to go. Plus stuff from colder dryer countries generally doesn't last here in the tropics.
