Yup, I purchased a Tesla and I regret it.

Next car I purchase will be a hybrid......

could you elaborate as to why? I think James May summed it  up pretty well for me, I certainly dont  hate them in fact acceleration and looks wise wise theyre "it," range no thanks, charging points need  millions as James  May mentioned and charging time still too  long.

When in Rome....and all that

so drive on the wrong side of the road  dont wear a helmet, tailgate I mean "when in Rome"

Which is it  obey the laws or when in rome?

Can arrest Johhny foreigner  for being a  taxi but cant arrest Somchai for not  using  the  meter.

It  all makes  sense  now

For the last 9 years I have picked up litter on the bike lane in Hua Hin. I usually do a big bag per day (see attached) and guess that I have picked up a total of about 9 tons of litter so far. It never ends...once I get to the end, I start again. I reckon that if people see litter on the verge, they are more likely to throw away their own litter in the same place. It's all about education, parenting, accountability, pride, integrity etc. Hopefully, the new generation will see that their country is becoming a rubbish tip and change their habits.  In the meantime, if anyone fancies picking up litter on the bike lane, feel free. One bag a day makes a difference.

after you  pick it  up, which I  commend, find the nearest Thai and give them a good  kicking, this  would get way more  press  attention and you could ( no pun intended)  toss  in the fact you were cleaning up their crap every day for years and  finally in a moment of madness  etc etc etc

Had similar at a  condo, spent  sometime tracking it  down, it only  happened between 6-7am every morning..........Then one morning I opened the front door  of the condo into the corridor and all their ceiling lights were flickering too!!!

Problem solved!

Govt has  failed since forever, witness  many roads with no pavement  at  all forcing pedestrians onto the road entirely. Poor  planning by city planners

Looking at family coming to visit from the UK in Christmas 2024 and taken aback by the prices for economy seats, LHR/BKK

Cheapest option using flexible dates EVA £1,448, TG £1,415. And this is returning 14 January.

Not saying their  good  but try Gulf  Air and Oman Air ive found them way cheaper

Yep, the UK has even made it illegal to use correct punctuation, such as capital letters at the start of a new sentence, commas and full stops in the correct place and (the worst offence IMHO), new paragraphs to make a chunk of text readable!! 🙂

Oh Ill willingly  give you that, I hate  typing, punctuation didnt like English at school and this  new  laptop has  keys rammed up to each other which is awful dell xps13

Anyway hows those mini satellites you were going to launch? Im sure you found the NHS  great when you were back there though and I really think they are.

There is a Thailand outside your girlie bars, chap..........😉

Funny how I just said the same by pm here to another member, congrats you proved  my point about not knowing anything about me. I  still miss  Colin by the way.

Theyll have the special forces  knitting jumpers for them next.

Not all police are lazy ours are very good. I think the fact that you had no evidence i.e. your word against his was a factor in their lazy behaviour. I also have personal experience of being threatened with a machete, by my noisy next door neighbour. I went to the local police station and made a formal written complaint. Unfortunately I had no video or photographic evidence, just the word of my wife so the case would not have held up in court. However the local police chief paid him a visit and the noise has since stopped.

Do you want me to post the  full video from start to finish  so you can make a  full assessment, tell you what Ill send it  you by message

Theyre  just teasing the air force  brass of  Thailand.

Actually to anyone with half a brain the term "finger pointing" is a metaphorical reference not a literal action... so yes Thais do finger point

golly you learn something new everyday...........literally

While the utopian plan would be to administer the law equally throughout the world... the reality is it is ridiculous to excuse any crime based on "look what johnny's doing"... finger pointing is stupid and accomplishes nothing.

Thankfully  Thais never  fingerpoint do they......ever
