Somtamnication

Not an EMT? Ok, we can beat people then!

It was a lintelligent decision to make!

The two sisters will make him burn in hell!

A lot to read and all good suggestions,  especially to move.

To answer some of the questions:

Move. We moved from a normal house to a shophouse to try to supplement covid-hit finances. The shophouse allows wife to do her Thai thing in the mornings and I will eventually plan to open up a small Spanish-South American restaurant. The location smack on Chao Fa Road. We took advantage of the a 5k rent reduction due to so many empty locations.

Why rent? Finances and deposit $$ for buying a house are just too prohibiting at the mo.

Acoustic foam. We sealed all the windows and the doors (door on both sides) and window one both sides, while the other 2 windows on one side as they are both away from the balcony and  unreachable.

The plywood idea as a second wall, adding a 2nd. thicker glass pane to all 3 windows is the other option, budget permitting.

Interesting reads. The other suggestion of adding bar girls to drown the noise would not work, as I will eventually believe that I am a hansum man and wife will cut my ##$* off!

LOL. I hear all of you.

How much money do you want to throw at the problem ?

 

Alluminium frame and double glaze a partition right across in front of it. (Like patio doors) Job done 15k.(about). ???? relatively easy to dismantle if you move again too. Just a suggestion.

Indeed.  The about 15k sounds interesting.  Leads? Tks.

We moved to a shophouse where the bedroom faces the main street. Enough said!!!

I have tried the large square foam (labeled noise cancelling) from homepro and baan &, with supposedly noise reducing foam (so a double layer). Nothing. The room has 3 windows and a balcony door. All filled with these stuff. Nothing.

I am not an acoustic guy, but do I need to cover the walls as well? We tried egg cartons, too.

Short of building a layer of the insulating foam used on ceilings and then adding another wall layer, I am at a loss. 

Any ideas?

Oh man. I grew hair on my knuckles because of him!!! RIP

Family Marts have been dropping like flies in Phuket areas where tourists once roamed. Even 7-11s. Sad to see. The Mama Noodle economy must be in overdrive.

Where did I see that man before?

Lucky to be alive.

But will not adhere when it comes to Thai coups.

No no no. This can't be. Why aren't they taking care of the elderly over there?

Please make it more difficult for Thai spouses to come over. We really need this!  UK has enough Chinese around the bloody  island.

Years ago TV had sponsored bbq events at many places, mostly Pattaya and some in Phuket. Best bbq this side of the Rio Grande by a talented and very welcoming TV member (Buckwheat), who sadly, passed away years back.

Nice times.

Ah, thanks Croc!

Hello folks,

It is weird a bit when I am an only girl in this group who asks your advices about sensitive issue of relationship. And I know most of you are men. I think it’s better because I can understand what is happening in man’s brain beside his neurons.

 

Well, story is that my weird boyfriend keeps mentioning about a weird of relationship which I cannot accept it -3somes.

 

I think it violates moral standard. Moreover, as a official girlfriend, who wants bf “abcdxyz” with another girl in front of her, then that girl touch to her body.....that is so ewww. that girl is stranger, who knows if she gets HIV or not. 2 girls use 1 man. And that is my man. Whenever I imagine that situation, I just want to kill that girl and choke my bf’s neck. No mood for “abcdxyz”. For me, it’s like he cheats me under my permission.

 

As a man, please tell me your thoughts.

 

Thanks for listening my story.

Hope you have a nice day.

 

eh, yeah, quantum computing creates an epinameous proctoligistally experioum while it expels itself!

Keep it in the family, I say.

Sorry, 20 years here and I don't know about Base Heights. Merlin I know, BH I don't. Where, what is it?

Villa Homepro has them for like 99b. Coal and all.

I promised my son that I will break his leg on the day of his enlistment lottery (green or red card, from what I hear).
