  1. Yes, I went down on my back it seems, so helmet definitely saved it from being worse I ride legally, I have had this current licence 13 years, fully taxed and insured for this type of accident , thank you
  2. Thank you, I will take your advice onboard, everything seems ok so far, I am getting on a bit in age so I seriously need to take care. Been to hospital again today for final check, and all was good Will try the torch test.
  3. A new UK passport is B5000 (118 quid), a few bus trips if you are in Pattaya and save yourself B7000, that's the way I will do mine at the end of November, might even have a night out in Bangkok
  4. Thank you, going back for final check at the hospital on Friday, so will talk to them about it, but been fine so far. My normal mad self. I was very lucky, and also very relieved the Thai couple were ok.
  5. OK, City Hall very helpful, but I think you would need a police report to go there, first thing they asked me for Not going to post the video as I don't want it all over the net 100% my fault, trying to get across to the u-turn to go south, an oncoming bike with a Thai couple hit me, I must have miss-read their speed, they both came off as well, I look like I was conscious the whole time, but can't remember anything I saw on the video, a police bike was there also The couple, looks like the guy got me up and helped me and the cop wheeled my bike across to the side, even looks I was talking to them. Crazy its all a blank. I am on the left
  6. The solution at last, thanks
  7. The UK does not need U.S. permission to launch its nuclear weapons, which are considered an independent deterrent . The authority to authorize a nuclear strike rests solely with the UK Prime Minister. However, recent developments in 2025 related to NATO nuclear sharing and tactical weapons have added new layers of complexity to this arrangement Key aspects of the UK's nuclear independence: Operational control: The UK maintains full sovereign authority over its nuclear weapons system, Trident. The command and control network is entirely British, and there are no US "lock-out" mechanisms to prevent a launch. Unique launch process: Unlike the US system, the UK's Trident submarines do not use Permissive Action Links (PALs) that require an external code to authorize a launch. The UK's system relies on a secure chain of command and military discipline. Independent warheads: While the UK leases the Trident II D5 missile bodies from a common pool with the US, it designs, manufactures, and controls its own nuclear warheads
  8. They seem to forget, The UK has nukes as well
  9. Going today, can't wait to see what happened, will post the video, unless I look a complete prat lol
  10. Just going by what the police in the beach road Jomtien office told, he said to show them the police report and they will let me see
  11. Yes tried that the next day, little cat café, The Barrel Restaurant, not many places open in that area, but there is traffic cam, been given police permission to go to city hall to look tomorrow Thanks for reply
  12. Not looking for that, already insurance has paid for my treatment, just want to know what happened, as I have no memory of the accident, been driving a bike here for 30 years on and off, and it was my first one
  13. Don't know who voted you down, it was not me, thanks for the reply, OP
  14. Has anyone managed to get them to let you view CCTV there? Had an accident Friday 24th close to, and just past, the traffic lights Pratumnak Hill/Thappraya road South bound. Not a clue what happened, one minute I am driving, the next I am standing on the North bound side with my bike with blood on my face, and grazers on all four limbs, no one else seemed to be involved Did not hit my head as confirmed by CT scan, got a police report, and the bike insurance paid for my treatment, but would love to know what happened
  15. Where is Starmer? He likes this sort of thing
  16. So many farangs on bikes here are not experienced, you can tell when they go round a corner with both legs dangling, a sure sign of inexperience, and not trusting the bike At the same time wearing flip-flops, crazy
  17. Pol Lt Gen Suriya should take a stroll down lower Sukhumvit around midnight, maybe in disguise
  18. https://bkkushhh.com/shop/ Order before 2pm, next day delivery Royal Thai mail
  19. From January to April 21, 2025, Thailand saw 94,074 visitors from the Netherlands and 423,324 visitors from the United Kingdom maybe the reason
  20. This won't come in this parliament, and the next publicly elected PM will scrap it, not worth worrying about
  21. Putin is a monster, then sooner you and the Russian people except that, then the world will be a better place
  22. With their air defences being taken out almost daily now by Ukraine, do you think they would dare launch any?
