Thanks for that explanation. Good news and likely to happen. Things will get violent again though, those MAGA morons don’t accept losing.

They had better suck it up. another 3.5 years at least. Dumb as rocks.

Thais are always nagging me to shower more. It is a bit annoying

Have to say in Thailand I would rate it 1. Israelis 2. Brits 3 Russians A few Chinese crims about but the are not really “tourists”. We Brits brought Israel into existence which is warring currently. Russia is a attacking another country in a war currently. How much more peaceful would the world be without the Israelis, Brits and Russians?

More than Cadbury glass and a half. He could have killed someone.

I am convinced he just likes to argue and or complain. Severe personality flaw.

I am black from the waist down.

South Pattaya Klong?

Shhh. Dont tell Richard. Only happens to me after a heaps of bongs on top of the booze. But it definitely is a good safety tactic

Exactly drunk, drive, slowly. Exactly what I have been advocating. At least some people get it ever if others want to carry on like old Aunties.

Easily

I don’t know what world you to live in. Of course I know that they all got home safely, because I see them again. It is called socializing, you should try it sometimes, good for your mental health to have friends. Over 30 years experience drink driving and I have never had even a minor accident, and I can not recall any of the thousands of people I have drank with over the years ever having an accident either. The closest thing was my car getting smashed into when parked out the front of the pub by a sober driver coming around the corner too fast. I was in the pub and everyone heard the smash. Bloody inconvenient that was. I had to pay for a taxi home but insurance reimbursed me.

You are carrying on a bit. Especially for someone who claims* to get his friends of drink driving charges. One of the advantages of living here is when I go back to the UK I can volunteer to be the designated driver for my friends. If they take my license off me there I don’t lose my Thai license.

I don’t know how many times I have to say it. If you are going to drive after having a few PLEASE drive safely. What I am advocating will save lives. I would like to think people have listened and many lives have been saved already. When people are leaving the pub I always say goodbye with a friendly reminder to drive safely. I am making a difference.

Yes, very dangerous. Think of your son.

With a couple of spliffs for an extra rush.

It is about my limit now I have moved on to large bottles instead of small.

Richard goes cross eyed and gets double vision after a glass and a half.

Which is why I am very careful crossing the road and stay off bikes, way too dangerous in Thailand. 80% of deaths in Thailand are on motorbikes. I believe you ride. Whether you like it or not you are a lot more likely to die on Thailands roads than me. Maybe you should have a good hard look in the mirror before criticizing me all the time.

killed in traffic accidents in 2021, 25% (294) died in drunk driving crashes. Among vehicle occupants, only 18% of deaths occur on roads with speed limits under 40 mph

What are you up to tonight? Want to head out for a few beers? I will pick you up.

Of course it is true. Someone who is reckless and speeds and shows off when drunk driving is a worse driver than somebody obeying all road rules and driving sensibly. It is just argumentative to claim otherwise.

Not quite, only 25% on average. Speed is the big killer, I am very unlikely to be killed in a car crash doing 50kmh or less.

Do you have double vision when drunk? Classic example of somebody who should never drunk drive. You probably shouldn’t drink at all and get same help.
