Many thanks for your kind offer, Triffid - 2tone was taken by another TV member just this morning.
A big thank you to Seesip for offering him a very good and stable home with his family.
And a biiig thank you to all kind TV members who offered moral support. This virtual community has something good going for it.

Thank you, Paangiang, you're too kind.
If anyone here can help, or knows of anyone that can take him, please...
"2tone" (temporary name) looks a lot happier this morning...
And he's sooo happy around humans...

Found this 4-month old little guy (still has pink paws) wandering near a main road in the Sansai district, looking lost and desperate for something to eat and a quiet place to rest:
I gave this too-young-to-be-abandoned pup some food and water, but when my conscience forced me to go back and check on him tonight, he was still where I found him, crying softly in the middle of a dark road, with that "I'm lost and I can't move forward" body language. Took him home, gave him a good wash, and a bed for the night.
As much as I'd love to keep him, we cannot because we already have a full house with five territorial ex-strays.
From observation, this pup is:
Unusually attentive for such a young pup, and a very good listener - his ears pop up every time someone speaks;
Very playful, but will stop as soon as you've had enough;
Very good around children;
I have never seen such a good-natured and human-centered pup before - he'll follow you everywhere and melt in your arms!This healthy pup will make an excellent companion for life for a lucky person or family.
Will deliver him to a good home anywhere in the Chiangmai area.
As a bonus, I'll pay for the initial vet checkup and vaccine shots.Please help save a life.

EMF exposure is a real problem, invisible as it may be.
How about lining the bedroom walls/ceiling with aluminum foil?
If you can make that work to block Wifi (to check wrap/ground your smartphone in alfoil and use this app), wouldn't that be the most cost-effective solution?
Also check for these:
Aircon may be drying the room air too much;
Static electrical charge can easily build up in synthetic bed linen, specially in a dry environment.Lastly, consider using a good quality negative ion generator.

yeah we eradicate bed bugs all the time you should give ozone a go.
Super-high voltage should do it, as long as the bed is not inside a Faraday cage.

This still looks painful.

Hahaha about as much thats in the video that got posted. I building it so that a person can easily stand in it with about a 2 ft gap either side of them.
Where/when will the "experiment" take place?
Prior to placing the victim inside the cage, make sure that you earth (and test) it well with some thick earthing cable attached to deep copper earth spikes.

Without doubt one of the finest airlines on this side of the disk called earth
Disk? My map shows the earth as rectangular
Rectangular? Pfff...
By now everyone should know that Earth is indeed a disk:

I'd also consider Aquaponics. If done properly, the rewards could be immense.

Each to their own me thinks. I for one would never go to a full moon party, but hey I am not 18-22yrs old anymore.
Would I have gone at that age if I had the chance and got high on drugs and drunk as a skunk.......f@@k yeah !
Take another look at how much fun Tom Hiddleston had with his short dance; you don't need a crowded beach full of partygoers to have the time of your life - with the right ambience, any lil old beach under the FM will do.

Puukao, not wanting to encourage you to give up your day job by any means, but your fiction writing is improving.

What is a farang safety zone?
Sawasdee Khrup, Khun Noise,
A "farang safety zone" is a set of psychically calcified persistent mental delusions that one is;
1. safe in Thailand from accident, assault, theft, homicide, fraud.
2. protected by almost astronomical odds (or divine favor) from being the tragic victim of the sad fates of many other farangs.
3. in a land of smiling, non-violent, Buddhist people who never take offense, personally, from egregious behavior on the part of farangs that insults their persons, their culture, their religion, etc. who are "easy-going," and accepting of everyone and any behavior.
4. that one is in a country where the Police are your friends who are always available to help you with any misunderstanding that may arise in personal life, or business.
The amount of effort the average farang has to exert to maintain the integrity of their "farang safety net" is, often, inversely proportional to the number of years they have been here, although frequent use of alcohol and/or drugs may lessen the burden for some.
For many farangs the "farang safety net" can be strengthened by developing exaggerated grandiosity. Awarding oneself (or purchasing on-line) a fake Ph.D., or other degree, may be useful props. Posing as a wildly-successful something-or-other back in one's home country when, in fact, one was a miserable second-rate failure, is also found beneficial by some.
For many farangs, talking with other farangs about their Thai friends, but never actually having any, is, for unknown reasons (research to be done), often correlated with a strong "farang safety net:" of course "correlation does not imply causality."

So, what you are saying is, that the "farang safety zone" is a state of mind...?

If only I could get Tom's epic dance moves to work on the beach sand, I'd be back as a regular FM partygoer...

"where to buy non exotic animal hides e.g. cow hide, zebra"
Homo sapien - the least exotic and most common animal I can think of.
You can usually find them late night in hordes, hanging around bright places such as 7-11. The white hairy thick-skinned ones make the best hides.

Looks just like the road to Haad Rin, circa 1996.
Must have been lovely times.
Indeed. I would often make the bike trip to Haad Rin just for the trip's sake. After a while one would get to know each individual rut on the dirt road quite well - and those hills were steeper and more challenging then. Even managed to get the bike up the super-steep track attempt (from the Buddha lookout point up the mountain towards Haad Yao) before that washed away completely. Saw lots of skin-shedding accidents during that time, but very few or no fatalities on those much slower dirt roads.
The mountain track to Haad Yao East needs some serious Baht from the government before it can become a viable access road. The couple of hundred metres of twin cement tracks (laid in 2008-2009 on the steeper sections) cost the resort owners a small fortune, and what's left won't hold up against the rainy season erosion much longer.

Super smart/friendly/loyal pup - looking for a good home
in Chiang Mai
Posted
Thanks, MadMac, Triffid - I have a feeling that 2tone has found the perfect home.
From observation on this pup's reaction to local squirrels, I'd guess that he may have hunting genes and so may not be safe to leave around cats or chickens. Who knows - maybe this is why he was let go in the first place.
