Ive just moved into a new condo ( well built 2012) on Sukhumvit road, Phrakanong, High floor 19 but the bedroom sliding balcony window may as well be absent for all the good it does. Ive alreay ordered a new frame 8 foot tall by 12 foot wide with double glazed units and one casement opening internally door as the sliding thing thats there now is useless, you can put your hand thru where the doors overlap each other. The old room Im doing up to rent out, Thats the noisier one in the OP, should be quiet enough when Im done and it doesnt cost much to do as I do it all myself, blocks are cheap 6 baht.

This is a corner room, it had two windows but about 5 years after moving in they built around us and now the one window looks directly onto a hotel where their guests hang around at night having loud conversations on the steps into the place and even though Im on the top floor (8) the sound travels up easily. Ive overboarded the one window and insulated inside that with polystyrene sheet, theres plenty of light with just the one window and now the view has gone its not needed.

Walls are made of AAC blocks in this condo, they appear to do nothing for noise so Ive done a bit of modification today. The last neghbour spent all night banging his girllfriend.......oh .oh....oh.......oh., urgh,...............urgh.........urgh.........Kamikaze......he was Japanese and sounded like he was killing her. The new neighbour seems to come in at 1am regularly and has laughing fits with her friend until 3 am..then goes out to work at 8am, beats me how she only gets 3-4 hours sleep a night. Also by cunning design her bed backs onto my wall and has built in drawers which she likes to bang shut. Mass kills noise fibreglass in between also. After will be doing built in wardrobes over the wall.....probably wont hear much then.

Grow a pair of wazza jugs, get your lips puffed out by letting wasps sting them, remove eybrows and felt tip pen some new ones on and voila...Instant money in the bank guaranteed, worked for that other old dog a few weeks back from Sweden even though she was whoring herself off on Fans Only previously.

Hard to know, and the reality is violence often does ultimately solve the problem (although not without consequences) hence "wars" not that I agree with that but sometimes there is no solution. You can end up with a compromise when often one party needs to realise what they are doing is unacceptable but it is hard to accept when told youre wrong. Stronger law enforcement would be better for many trivial matters especially in Thailand where someone could go round to each neighbour and lay down what the law says. In the UK I used to get many times people obstructing my driveway, after a while the tempation is to literally go out and smash up their car and them and bugger the consequences, when asking them you are often told theyll only be a minute ( except it goes on all day) to "whats your problem " to "Ill park where I want" to "what you going to do about it" etc Ive always restrained myself, but its really hard to not lash out due to pure selfishness on their part. Ive always been afraid to lash out in life as I thought if I let myself go the end result would be someones death.

I built a second interior wall up against the neighbours condo with a 2 inch air gap filled with fibreglass and then the odd squirt of spray foam to bond the blocks to the party wall every so often.

Get a Makro..........bury it deeper, use hdpe pipe with no joints in, 1 metre deep, also useful for burying lazy workers. 9 years ago no problems, that galvanized stuff is crap, but if you really wanted pour concrete over it ( the hdpe) -
I think youll find thats death

Labour Ministry to Push for Overtime Pay for Security Guards

After seeing many a sheite install and many a sheite cleaning guy I learnt how to clean my own. I also boughty aircons with an easily removable drain tray "DaiKin" do one. You can remove the entire tray easily. With it out I then stick a hose on the end of the drain pipe and blast the jelly out. Followed by bleach. If your aircon guy isnt dismantling the airocn chances are they arent cleaning out the drain. Also I stuck some fine mesh in the drain pipe where it exits the room to stop anything crawling up it such as ants , jing joks etc and those wasps thing which like to make a mud nest.

Its a human trait to want to "believe" in a God ( nonsense of course ) its also a human trait to want to think life has any meaning whatsoever. I really dont see why there should be any meaning, it just "is". Just remember as Monty Python sang, you were the lucky sperm that actually came to fruition. Then you can listen to "Every sperm is sacred" good old dig at religion, followed by the "Galaxy song" One day it will all be gone......... pause for thought and realise "you" are nothing, then get on with whaetever you do, could be worse you could have been born in a starving African country.
