  1. True, but I think the point being that you can cut your losses and move on. Wouldn't fancy trying to sell my house if there's a hole like that living next door.
  2. Absolutely. It's not silly at all. Yes, wreckless and regrettable. OTT sure...but the anguish you start to feel in the early evening, knowing what's in store night after night can cause havoc to your mental state. Nobody should have to feel anxious about being in their own home or sleeping. Another reason not to buy. 100pc
  3. I saw a woman driving an electric bike today, with her 2 year old daughter sitting, NOT on the seat at the rear, but in the footwell at her mum's feet. Her feet were dangling just above the road surface and it was at 18.40 in a busy area. Some people don't deserve to have children.
  4. "Even as a police officer, I was terrified. My blood pressure went up. He was driving as if he meant to crush me. I’m pressing charges and will see this through.” Good luck with that. Welcome to the real world. Happens everyday whilst your lot are nowhere to be seen.
  5. Thais put hazard lights on because they think it means GO STRAIGHT. At a roundabout the car coming onto the circle will assume priority, so everyone copies. Drive on pavements, up hard shoulders, the list goes on and on. Could it be that they don't use their horns because they don't know how to? Noise reduction here is non existent. Neighbours, dogs, music, talking in public....can't see why they'd take offence in a car, especially when they usually know what they're up to. Possibly the fight/flight reaction from the shock.
  6. They can't prevent a bunch of taxi drivers holding the airport hostage (if the choose to) so good luck fighting an army.
  7. Never ceases to amaze me how they can't navigate a safe space to move away. I hated mini roundabouts when they were introduced at home but people soon learnt and fell into line. No chance here after all these years still. Shut your eyes and hope comes to mind.
  8. Yep, drove home today, past 3 chaps fixing cables on ladders in the dark. Easily run into those ladders and down falls the unfortunate chap.
  9. Sounds like some interesting stories to be told. Be great to hear some Thai perspectives on that era.
  10. Stunning buddy. You're a lucky chap
  11. I love this thread. Fantastic idea whoever thought it up Personally, my favourites are rice fields or the BKK cityscape at sunset.
  12. That looks like Wonglamat. I love those big balconies.
  13. Probably. Personal thing with me. Sunglasses, wallet, keys...always manage to leave them and walk off. Phone, for some reason it is like another limb. I'm constantly aware of where it is. If it's not on me somewhere something kicks in.
