I don't care what the sign says!

Only an idiot drives their car with them intending to drink and subsequently drive home!

There are lots of safe transport options for both the intoxicated (now) non driver and the rest of the population!

There is no reason and no excuse to drink and drive!

You accused another poster of being a "drunk driver condoner", but all he did was post a picture of a roadside sign and its English translation.

Another fvcking stupid post from the drunk driver condoner!

What sign and what does it say?

I suggest you follow what I posted!

Do not drink and drive!

No matter what your interpretation of a (an imaginary) sign is!

 

PS;  I suggest you also stop drinking and posting dangerous drivel!

 

The sign in the photo says เมา ฃับ ซ้าๆ "Drunk drive slowly".

Yes, that article has been linked, ad nauseum, but nowhere in it is there a request for donations, or that is is a charity.  It actually refers to it's profit-making success through visitors paying for tours.

In addition to the Green Elephant Sanctuary Park, Fehr also runs the Green Elephant Wildlife Foundation, which does collect donations. 

But I'm sure that everything is "above board".

The medical examiners were called to the scene to conduct a post-mortem examination. The body was then released to the family for religious rites.

Seems like a very thorough PM (sarcasm).

I would have thought it's important to find out whether the drowning was caused by sunstroke, excessive alcohol, a medical condition, or some other factor.

RIP young man. 22 is way too early to die.

I think your best bet is Villa Market.

I recall there was a bit of a travelogue aspect to the song in the lyrics. 

Rockin in the free world?

Lazada has some shops that cater for big sizes.

If you notice alot of Thai kids and adults do a 'doggy paddle' style, if it saves your life that's good enough!!

IMO - The problem is the steep and slippery sides of these very deep ponds, which are popular in Isaan. I suspect that the kids either go for a swim or fall in, and just can't climb out. Eventually they are so exhausted that they go under. It seems fairly common that one child gets into difficulty and others drown whilst trying to help.

Looking at Owl's photos, his ponds seem to be shallow at the edges, which would make it easier for someone to climb out. Maybe there's some reason why the deep/steep-sided ponds are preferred by some. Maybe someone can explain.

I have mentioned previously that my wife had one of these ponds dug for free on her small farm a few years back. The soil (clay) was taken away for roadworks. Last month she had the pond backfilled again with clay as it never produced any fish worth the trouble.

When I read about these tragic drownings, I feel relieved that we will not have any kids drowning on her farm.
