If accommodation & meals are provided ok come to pick the berries but if you have to pay your own rent etc stay in Thailand & find a job is a better option , years ago we all picked strawberries in Ireland when we were young teenagers 13-16 , now no young Irish would do it do it’s all polish /Lithuanians & Romanians doing it for the strawberry farmers

I’ve rode big bikes & scooters in Thailand over the last 20 years and never had a problem , it’s like everything just be alert & have extra caution , I’m riding motorcycles for the last 35 years , this man was very unlucky , no one here knows the circumstances, not all foreign bike riders in Thailand are idiots , it’s some of the Thai drivers I’m more scared about the idiotic behaviour they show on the roads , I got a mini bus from hua hin to Bangkok around 15 years ago & that was my last time ever in a minibus in Thailand , after that I said never again , I will gladly pay more to go in a taxi , this fool drove that minibus like a rally car , it was pure crazy dodging in and out of traffic at high speed , people in the bus were scared to death & in shock , anyway I’ve seen a lot less needy cases setting up gofund me , clearly this man is paralysed for life , I’m sure he will need all the help he can get for the future to help him adapt as best he can !! Have a little empathy guys to this man’s tragic situation

Tragic scooter crash in Thailand leaves Queensland dad in coma
barrybike replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Hope the young man gets the care he needs, helmet laws in Thailand in general are not strict enough , the helmets that bike rentals provide are usually just hard plastic cheap ones ,they are better than nothing but not near good enough -

Indian Tourists Brawl with Thai People on Pattaya Beach Road
barrybike replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
The good the bad & the ugly 😀 -
Nothing as bad as being in a taxi with no ac on , I’ve seen it several times where the taxi driver thinks it ok to leave the car at 30 plus degrees while I’m in the back seat baking away , I always ask politely to make it cooler 99 % of the time the driver is happy enough to cooperate, I rem once years ago where a taxi driver would not turn on the meter after leaving the airport in bangkok even though we got it from an official taxi rank there
