I was under the impression that gamb!ing, as an addiction, was never reformable. You just went from day to day, like an alcoholic, but it appears I'm wrong. Medical interventions exists, apparently, along with behavioural therapy. Who knew? Sounds like I could get a job, if only I was allowed to work...

Solar lights affecting the rice crops, no water in the irrigation canal. 2km long 'embankment'... Blimey. How do else lights affect rice crops, do they make the crop grow at night? It doesn't look like there needs to water in the irrigation canal, plenty of water in the fields. Rice is cut now, anyway. Nobody knows how a 2km long road was built, along an embankment? Dang, someone do that here. Just dirt and mud on the way to the wife's 3 rai of empty fields. Ps... How was the picture taken? Drone?

Kalim Beach restaurant fined for obstructing traffic
Scott Tracy replied to webfact's topic in Phuket News
There we have the nub of the problem. Laws don't apply in the 'informal' system, when it suits whoever is breaking them. Block the highway, block the footpath, the proprietors don't care. Nor do the punters. Double parking is de riguer. And, regretably, people who advocate 'informal' systems only tend to make things worse. -

Why Chinese electric cars are causing a buzz in Thailand
Scott Tracy replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Let me know when a pickup, less than 800,000 is on the market. Let me know also, when a 100 amp, 300 volt charger is available at PTT. One that doesn't stop working because of a thunderstorm 20 miles away... -
Rare dolphin found dead in Chonburi sea
Scott Tracy replied to Jonathan Fairfield's topic in Pattaya News
Rare? Depending on what sort of bottlenose dolphin it was. Least Concern or Near Threatened. Interesting concept, near threatened. Next on the list to least concern and vulnerable. Anyways, I digress. Rare my backside. Might be rare in the sea around Chonburi, but that is probably because the pods have learned to stay away. -
Ah, but it could be the truck and trailer driver's fault, for failing to stop legally while breaking down. I was under the impression that if a vehicle decides to break down, it doesn't always do so on the hard shoulder. Failing to use his hazard lights, failing to rope off his trailer, ahh yes, failing to put the obligatory tree branch down on the road. Failing to get out and walk down the road 30 meters and signal a broken down truck trailer. For goodness sake. Really?

RTP chief denies knowing that Red Bull Boss is in Austria
Scott Tracy replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
I suggest it matters not where Boss is. The RTP have no intention of bringing him back. Too many worms in too many cans... -

US democracy summit is ‘pure politics’ – FM Don

<deleted> stupid thing to say. Of course it's politics. What else would it be? Gardening? Just be aware, this is what the world perceives Thailand not too be. Democratic. -
Miss Universe Thailand Accused of Violating Flag Act
Scott Tracy replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
It's not a flag she is standing on. A flag is a piece of fabric, usually square or quadrilateral, colourful and full of symbolism. We used to call Trooping the Colour tramping the rag....we being some of Her Majesty's forces not being part of the Household Division. -
This government has no shame. It purports to be a developed country, able to produce it's own vaccines. Not able to produce the anti viral drug, as Pfizer states it is a developed country, but it still has donations. Still accepts donations, and countries are stupid, (or perhaps looking for an advantage), enough to donate the vaccines.

What are these parasites on cat's ears ?
Scott Tracy replied to FlorC's topic in Plants, Pets & Vets in Thailand
In the OP's pics, I can see the insects have 6 legs. My understanding is that ticks have 8, not being I sects, but being arachnids. Spiders in other words. I know it doesn't tell you what they are, but I suggest they are not ticks. -

I don't know what he's looking at, but the Thai baht to Dollar exchange rate has improved recently. -

Scott Tracy replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
It's the power poles leaping out in front of drivers that costs the money. Stop them doing that and all will be a lot cheaper.
