No worries, my wife will get the ladder out later and fix things.

You do realise they charge 10 baht for a second hand tile.

Isn't it usually a warning to 'brace' for rain, at the start of the rainy season, shock surprise.

Only for two tiles but I just need one. Might try gluing the broken one to keep as a spare.

Why is this even news. Rain in the rainy season.

Read the OP, this is different, people need to "to brace themselves" assume the position until further notice, thank you! ????

[Emdog]

Might be quicker and easier to list places that don't need to brace themselves...

So Surin misses out again, not on the list so it will probably p1ss down.

[jlwilliamsjr18]

And...Bangkok is blessed.

How nice to have all these funny posts instead of the usual bashing of whoever. I am just north of Nakhon Phanom and not much happening at the moment so i am relaxing my braces.

Just don't use your seasoned money to buy the new tile or you will not only get wet but you will get a wellington up you exhaust pipe as you leave

Some troll posts and replies have been removed.

2 Choices

 

1.) Fix the drains.

 

2.) Get flooded every time it rains

 

Pick ONE

Make sure you send your wife by herself,if the secondhand tile sales person sees a white face all bets are of and you may face dual pricing.Just saying.

It's raining all around Chiang Mai on Thursday, but not in Chiang Mai ?
Somebody needs to look at a map...

I braced myself on lower Sukhumvit late last night - or at least my sphincter did.

Good idea. I'll send her after she finishes scrubbing the door step and blackening the cooking range. Hope it's not raining by that time or not too dark.

What sort of tile ?  Monier or prestige I could probably do one for 8Bt. 

[DrTuner]

Bring it on. Had storm drains installed this year, could use a good stress test. Somchais digging the trenches thought I'm nuts. When they are drinking their laukhao in a flood up to armpits I shall sip on my gintonic and chuckle. Hah!
