  1. The carnage goes on and on. You could leave Thailand tomorrow , return in 10 years time , turn to the news and read of exactly the same thing happening somewhere. The coin never drops.
  2. 30 degree proof Lao Khao small bottle currently going for 34 baht at my local Tescos. Hammered for a lot less than a quid. 40 degree stuff only 36 !! Even my brother in law was gob smacked. ( the regular 40 degree generally costs 60 )
  3. Dezlez dont need no google. He's a walking encyclopedia Britannica.
  4. Oh man , that stuff will totally waste you dude. Avoid at all cost unless you want to end up in the nearest mental hospital. I know , posting from one right now. Guards are nasty but the babes are chill after their meds. Sort of lose win scenario.
  5. You must be the only surviving Roman ! My wise father used to say : Cheapest is more expensive in the end.
  6. Oh its all still there , pressed down under the mud. Dig down 6 inches or so and you will find the gravel. If you lay gravel on mud, then it rains and then everyone drives on it, this is what happens. Ask any Roman, they will tell you so.

    Hipsters are people that try too hard to be different (and genuinely do think that they're being different), by rejecting anything they deem to be too popular.Ironically, so many other people also try too hard to be different that they all wind up being the exact same, so hipsters arent actually different at all, theyre just people that are snobbier and more annoying about their taste in "alternative" things, which are all popular now thanks to the other hipsters.Hipsters pride themselves on liking things that no one else likes, and normally only really like them because they think no one else likes them and that theyre being unique. This is being delusional because all the other hipsters also like the same things. https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=hipster AKA tw*ts
  8. Wrong wrong wrong. The correct report is : Korat is now being lauded as a hub of art.
  9. Probably see them first on Tik Tok these days. The real thing comes later. No electricity in these villages back then so no televisions even. Only radios to listen to.
  10. Did that 40 years ago on a motorcycle. Roads were a bit rough and passed through villages that were former communist strongholds. Got some weird stares. So many buffalos around back then. Coming into Mukdahan ( sleepy nowhereville back then ) around sunset there were an incredible amount of buffalos coming in from the fields. Thousands of them. Almost all gone now and a white man is nothing to get exited about any more.
  11. Taken in several soi dogs and had three die. Brother in law disposed of first in forest, we disposed of a young puppy ( snake bite ) in another forest but our beloved fatty we couldn't part with so we buried him quite deep in the back garden. Wife cried buckets.
  12. Because in Thailand the water flows up into the mountains and not down to the sea. Duh.....everyone knows that.
  13. Talk about rinse and repeat ! Time to do a Stevie Wonder and move to Higher Ground.
  14. Since there are no GP surgery's in Thailand the first stop for medical advice is the nearest hospital which is where they find the doctors. So not really surprising that hospitals are busy. Having said that , as someone else has mentioned , if one person goes the whole clan will go, uncle Tom Cobley and all. Just something different to do to relieve the boredom of normal routines. Most common Thai phrases : ' Pai nai ? ' ....' Pai dooay '
  15. Truly , the end of an era. Gone but never forgotten. A sad day indeed.
  16. Just humour her. A set up like this will be safe enough.
  17. There are places that will do conversions to your specifications. Fatty Uncle has some kind of air conditioner stripped down and built into his van. Even has a shower cubicle.
  18. Cut into little squares and hung on a nail next to the toilet maybe ?
  19. I think you'll find the current population of Sweden is 10,236,129 https://www.worldometers.info/world-population/sweden-population/#:~:text=The current population of Sweden,the latest United Nations data.
  20. Well....they don't build up much of a sweat at work on the rare occasions they turn up.
  21. Those without the same names will undoubtedly have some other family connection. Brazen corrupt nepotism on a grand scale but nothing new for a non elected bunch of coup fluffers.
  22. Yup, you could walk around there wearing nothing but a jock strap but they would still want to check what you were carrying. Just don't walk around in that area unless necessary.
