  1. Should be OK on side roads. Via Klong Hat and Sa Keao. Short unavoidable squirt across the hills on 348. then to Korat.
  2. I'm too lazy to go to Pai. I would probably need to overnight in CM first.
  3. Just an aside. I used to work for the Vestey Group previous owners of Fray Bentos.
  4. I'm surprised that KhunLA hasn't claimed that this is also made in China.
  5. These things will also suck air. Stick the rubber nozzle onto the side and tape the narrow end onto the AC drain pipe then point away from the wife.
  6. I've used that excuse when Plod turned up and my car was in a ditch
  7. One can buy cans of spray grease in any decent hardware or automotive store. Cans of "air duster" if not in any decent hardware or automotive store will be in PC or electronics stores.
  8. That still doesn't mean that tap water in BKK is not clean. Many people on this forum may come from conurbations in Europe where they take clean drinking water as a given. They would not have to use filtration systems to avoid beaver fever.
  9. You do know that there are gullible people reading this forum who will actually believe that.
  10. I've never had any rich friends, but my friends have.
  11. Maybe just where YOU live. Doesn't mean it is the same everywhere. There are public drinking fountains down by Taksin Bridge. They have been there for years.
  12. The taxi driver gets a tip from the gemstone factory. I have a farang-looking mate who used to get taxi drivers to take him to a gemstone factory and then split the tip and have a free lunch together.
  13. I think the idea of driving is to look at the road
  14. For the first time, I sat on a Duke 390 yesterday. It felt like a nice bike. The workshop guy said they are not expensive but parts are.
  15. I bought a couple of cans of Lager and Dunkel. There was only one big bottle on the shelf so they must have been popular but they had 12 can flats of both types. First impression. I poured a beer into a glass. It fizzed like cola but there was no head. I’m not a chemist or a brewer so I can say why there is no head. OK for me as I get rid of the head on all other beers I drink. Lager. Passable but had a bit of a lingering aftertaste. I won’t be changing to that. Dunkel. Also no head and I preferred it to the lager as it doesn’t have the aftertaste. I don’t buy beer to drink at home and when out I am forced by my local establishments to drink Leo as I don’t like Chang. However there is one place where I can get my favourite which is Tiger and another where I drink Asahi.
  16. This is a big ask? Why Chiang Mai? What do you want to do in retirement? -Golf -Model railway -RC Aircraft -Skydiving -Obviously? not riding a motorcycle Chiang Mai is just another big Thai city. What he said? A week is not enough to make a decision about the rest of your life. Himku Hotel is pleasant. In the old part of town, you can walk to places for B/fast/lunch/dinner and for a few beers near the boxing stadium.
