Rampant Rabbit

Is that a requirement before posting then, Ok leave you to it like many other taboo subjects such as global warming, transgenders, racism, EV's solar is now in that category it seems. U may delete all my posts.

does your average somchai in the village have a 1.6m baht car and 30 panels on their roof with battery back up? seems most Thai live hand to mouth and as pointed out above 1 -18000 btu aircon is gonna eat up 30k in solar panels alone without batteries..however knock yerself out telling me how almost everyone can now afford it when most cant. Its not about me having solar its about most Thais having it. I could have solar till it shines out my arse but I dont want any maintenance hassles just another load of stuff to break at some point, Whats easy is mains power.

whatever happened to honouring a contract in this world?

They can also move on to the cat and pigeon problem the "kind" feeders have produced, theres no end to the stupidity.

Having had rats inside a building here gnawing at pipework I hope u have some sort of protection for that lot

let me know the depreciation in 3-4-5years time on those as i suspect its going to be high, total cost of solar install total cost of batteries, impractical for most.

126k UK https://www.comparethemarket.com/car-insurance/content/road-traffic-accidents/ Thailand 939k https://www.nationthailand.com/thailand/general/40023780 yea looks pretty similar to me give or take 800k must be the Thai calculator....pls respond with at least 5000 words or more or get the guy who tells us hes been here 20 years or more to chip in, I promise I wont be reading it😉

Thats one hell of an assumption for 4 years I was doing 30k a year in Thailand in the UK way more, had to buy a new car every year . Im 108 years old, first responders here are fast...........speed = $$$$

ive always had a good🤪 eye. My trip is about 250k each way I live past HH. I guess I must have imagined the whole thing, you know come to think of it youre right, Ive never seen better more caring, safer, unselfish drivers anywhere in the world. Ever drive at night....

Head of village tells the villagers not to burn in the day burn at night as no one will come to check.

I get flocks of them fly over the land at head height around 6-7am everyday......so no still many about, but best I ever saw was a group of 6 Hornbills fly over, only ever seen them once very low easily identifiable, had Peacock a few months back appear otuside my garage.

Increasing living standards and giving women the right to birth control.......something many religions do not like.

I know from driving in the UK that I rarerly came across any severe accidents like I see here pickupsd sliced in half, brains all down the road motorocyclke riders cut in half as a lorry goes over them etc, UK daily roadkill 3 I think, Thailand pick a number 65-100 daily

So we have as difference of opinion, welcome.

Sorry too busy,off out to buy 100 packets of incense sticks.........

No problem at all Ive been doing that for years, built 4 houses by myself ( i dont mean supervise I mean lay thre blocks) take care of 5 rai of fruit, so the choice is $10 or none at all, pretty simple choice, work hard save hard, start young and save. Alternatively whine an moan how lifes not fair. On top of that certainly no one around Prachuap will work for less than 400 a day.

Id call it education

I on the other hand have seen a badly mangled vehicle on almost every single drive dow to Hua Hin from Bangkok and Im up and down monthly, car upside down lorries upside down, cars in ditches etc etc.......very rare to see that in the UK, compound it with almost total lack of seatbelt wearing and theres the answer. Having said that.....I wouldnt change a thing as I hate the UK's ridiculous over nannified road safty/fundraising speed camera infested laws.

when confronted on their awful behaviour (and they know it) pull out a machete.

on that basis Im moving to Africa.

id like to shove their phones right up their arses......repeatedly. Narcissisitic pretend hi-so's with attitude seems more prevalent in the girls.

its not the cost of living its the standard of living which that filthy dirty polluting carbon beclhin oil has given society, Thank you OIL which has raised standards of living no end and thus the need for umpteen sprogs. Oil really is black gold. Undervalued and slagged off.

I see those "megapoor" in the vilage daily supping those 40 baht drinks............mega boneidle in many cases.

They make it ridiculously difficult enough with paperwork for the Burmese already and then you must name the work they can do and only for you.....why not just a single work permit for ANY job ANY employer......nah too simple.

not only that but what I see from my Wifes familys kids are they are bone idle, dont want to do any hard work would rather have no work, although then again their parents seem ok with this whilst still working in the fields themselves. Just recently one of her 10 brothers and sisters drove from Loei to Bangkok to collect the little princess who lost her job and couldnt pay her rent, yet still managed to buy those 50 baht drinks everyday. Wife appalled by this. They want it all want it now and expect it for free........seems the attitude and not only in Thailand.
