  1. There are no reliable weather forecasts.... Accu weather yesterday predicted in Phetchaburi rain and thunderstorms at 15.00 but it poured down already at 10.30. Weather.com predicted at 12.00. Radar views were both totally different... for tomorrow again. weather.com predict no rain, but accuweather after 15.00/1600... we will see what happens..

  2. They should call off the whole idea of the digital wallet 10k.. It is too expensive and it will harm more than do good.. I think that people with in income of 45k or 400k in an bankaccount don't need it, but the poor, elderly and disabled would be better of if they got some money.  It would be much cheaper and also to use the money to increas the daily wage from 350 THB to 500 THB.. That would do much more good to the economy than 10k spending in a radius around your house and if for groceries it has no benefit at all..Only the shopkeepers of 7/11, Lotus's or CJ or whatever..Don't borrow money to pay off loans, as it will not work

    I can handle live or recorded music within reason, but what I cannot tolerate is peoples badly behaved screaming kids, running around and creating a nuisance.

    I was in a restaurant recently, and on an adjacent table was a large family with a couple of noisey brats , one of which was constantly screaming at the top of its voice , and as usual none of adults even attempted to shut it up. Then a kid on a table on the other side of the room decides to copy it, screaming at a pitch that must have been close to being able to shatter glass, this appeared to delight both sets of parents who for the next half hour actively encouraged their brats to scream at each other across the room, even commenting on how clever their offspring were.. Even when the little monsters grew tired of this , their respective parents started screaming themselves in a (successful) attempt to encourage them to continue. Oh what fun they were having.

                    The restaurant staff / management, unsurprisingly,  did absolutely nothing to help the situation either. I thought about complaining , but what would have been the point, I would instantly have become the bad guy.   So I paid up and left, the rest of the customers were starting to do the same as I walked out.    

                    kids under 10 should be banned from places like this, and don't even get me started about long haul flights,  what sort of idiot takes a 2 year old on a 10 hour flight, and why do they always end up sat close to me?

    It shows the lack of education by the parents....Our parents taught is how to behave in public, school, at home... but here the parents as shown don't care.. Same near my place there is a ricesoup shop and the youngest one is screaming as talking we can litteraly hear every word she screams....

     

    But nobody tells her the talk softly and she is already in her twenties.... No clue what they are doing

  4. Is that also for the teachers, government officials, soldiers and other people in the army and police officers? As we see several people are vaping too. Secretly but   doing it...and no wonder s on markets there are stalls where you can buy the things you need...Enforcement is a problem, but starting with fines is a bit wrong... First start with all vendors  and shops than to the users

    Climate isn't controlled locally. Regardless of what Thailand does neither the temperatures or rain will be affected.

     

    The weather has been fantastic south of Bangkok recently. Warm sunny days, not too hot at all.

     

     

    Not too hot at all??? 42  C in the fields in Phetchaburi province at noon, but happily in the evening with some wind a few degrees less

    I much prefer places with singers, it's what makes Thailand so enjoyable. Not when singing western rubbish of course.

    Good singers yes... but the almost everybody is crap... too loud to hide their misperformances
