Yep, especially if near or after sunset ... got some kind of light, and even the dog is that smart ... VID_20250403_142839.mp4

What the sense of having a brain or common sense, if you don't use it. And I'm sure you drive the speed limit all the time. Especially 30 kph through villages or 60 kph though town, and of course, never over 90 kph, on highway, with exception of the few stretches allow to do 100-120 kph.

No place where I ever lived. Step off the curb without looking and expect to run over. You always look both ways, then again ... maybe even a 3rd time. I don't even trust the crosswalks at intersection, even if the pedestrian get their own little green light. Only takes a second or 3 to stay safe crossing the road. Mind boggling people ignore the basics, and still get run over. You can't fix stupid.

Already conceded, I should have Googled before posting ... ... in the future, try not to kick a man when he's already down 😎 And ... I got more crap here than I can smoke. Think I over bought, especially since I rarely indulge. Smoked half a doobie last month, and might smoke the other have this month ... maybe

Not suppose to victim blame, but still amazes how people can't see the cars or MBs driving on the road ... or expect them to stop.

No beach in Udon, If I had to choose, Udon vs Phuket ... ... or Udon vs any other place below Krung Thep, Udon loses. Yea, Phuket wins over Udon.

1 week inflation, for my 'go to' 70% dark chocolate chips, over 26% increase in price OK, not 1 week, as been ฿320 for awhile, and now ฿405 😢 Beats crappy Tulip Dark Chocolate @ 22%, that taste like nothing even close to chocolate.

And we got a COLA of 2.5%

Get solar

Oops...sit corrected.

Couple key words ... ... "Thailand could face a significant economic setback, losing up to $8 billion if the US imposes reciprocal tariffs on Thai goods." ... Highly unlikely ... IMHO ... especially since USA doesn't have a trading deficit with TH.

Have you considered getting one of the EcoFlow Solar Generators. Router, computer and phone can stay charged up, when power goes out. Along with other appliances you may need on. https://shopee.co.th/ecoflow_thailand_distributor?categoryId=100644&entryPoint=ShopByPDP&itemId=21267297386

Holy Buddha ... NO Grace was the first hotel I ever stayed in TH, (1999) and the worst ever, worldwide. Thankfully only one night, and off to Phuket the next day. Patpong, again, one of the worst, if not, areas of Krung Thep, if not TH. Scam central. When I did finally hear about Thermae ... took the advice and avoided. All 3 visited by lowest scrapings of the barrel.

Not really ... ... "Hi, can you give me a price for Solar ? " ... "OK, and you can install it as soon as components arrive ?" ... "Next month is good for us ... you ?" .... THANK YOU Didn't even break a sweat StarLink shouldn't be any different, if ever approved. ... "How much ... same or just wee bit more than TOT " ... SIGN ME UP ... no more crappy internet or losing GPS signal when O&A.
