I had the previous model 2.0 diesel raptor - just not enough ponies! Eventually swapped it for a current model Wildtrak - same same, but different. As Ralf001 said, the V6 Raptor with a manual transmission would be awesome 😎
with the potential criminalisation of weed again - it would seem that the proponents of this bill, are smoking more than their fair share, while they still can...
complete pie in the sky rubbish!
some okay beaches on Koh Chang (near Trat) - but a lot of rocky ones too.
IMO Cha-am and Hua Hin are not much better than Jomtien - maybe a tad cleaner - but still open and boring.
The best beaches I have been to in LOS were on Koh Phangnan. Not fantastic, but look good, swimming is okay , and not too many punters.
It is by choice , not necessity. Not need , but choose - see the difference? Unfortunately, when we were toilet shopping in Yong House , they wouldn't let me drop my strides to really test the merchandise - lol
we bought one-piece toilets last year - American Standard single flush are very good - great 'whoosh'! (about 4K) We also bought a premium Kohler double flush - do not recommend this at all.(8K). Bowl is too narrow & shallow, so splashes (badly!) , and if I want a relaxing (sit down) pee - my todger hits the bowl. (& I am not that big!!)
Toilet seat replacement might be easier with 2 piece units rather than single units.
Thanks for this info.
I never knew there were so many different varieties.
That would explain why I am not very partial to durian from around Kanchanaburi, where I am - but found durian that we bought on a trip to Koh Chang (around Chantaburi) to be delicious.
We have a rule. - no 'open' durian is to be had in any of our cars!
most private vets here would be very unlikely to have tranquiliser guns.
if it is anything like in the West, licensing required to own and operate tranquiliser guns is more stringent than regular guns. blow darts would be more likely - but the likelihood of finding an experienced vet willing to come at 3:30 am here would be very low!
I see similar things in rural Thailand as I saw while traveling through Central and South America. Household waste was simply thrown out the back of the house - where it would be cleaned up by dogs, rats, birds, ants etc. The problem now is that there is so much waste that is either inedible or non-biodegradable.
Add to that- there are very few places where legal dumping can by done (in my area at least) - so all public and non-farmland is fair game to become a tip.
Nothing will change here unless there is a major public awareness campaign against littering - and alternatives are provided to the people. (As in designated rubbish collecting sites or recycling - however I have no confidence in 'real' recycling occurring in Thailand because recycling costs money).
More Thai xenophobia.
This is wrong on so many levels.
A fair wage for a fair days work for ALL workers...
(though a walk around BigC will reveal a lot of people being paid to do nothing)
Just out of Kanchanaburi - we had not had any rain since early November on our property, although areas less than 5km away have had several localised storms.
Yesterday was our first day where our maximum temperature was under 40C for about 6 weeks, and we finally snagged 15 ml of rain yesterday.
Heaven!
