I went past this morning, didn't notice the sink hole but right down Thappraya left side was sand and mud, some sort of flood but I can't recall it raining during the night

That's what happens when you build on sand.

No rain last night..... I was out. 

Anybody in it?

Korean take on burst water main? Guess they’re bored too!

All that "wasted" money  painting Zebra crossings that 99% of drivers ignore. ????

It's a mystery then, seems a lot of water passed that area during the night maybe from the ground

Yesterday evening just after 5 o'clock there was a burst in the main water pipe in the middle of the junction and huge amounts of water were trying to find their way out to the surface. The were policemen and even an ambulance  on the site of the problem.

It's the motor cycle taxi riders fault for transporting all the very over weight bar girls around in jomtien. its was just a matter of time before this happened.

Burst water mains are not uncommon in the West so why should the Far East be any different? Have local residents and businesses had supply restored?

[Leaver]

Burst water pipes and underground cables will be an interesting combination.
