Damrongsak Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 My favorite number is 8777. It's not lucky, as in Thai language it sounds like what happens when you get the runs. (BAT, jet, jet, jet.) But it does come up all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prairieboy Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 Better to take the 180 thousand baht (CA$7214) and take some driving lessons, (speed limits, lane driving, following distance, car maintenance, etc.) - put your faith in skill, don't rely on luck! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
