Popular Post asiasurfer Posted March 24, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted March 24, 2022 I'm not a Sonkran Fan. But honestly, Sonkran without water, is like Christmas without a Christmas Tree. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post freedomnow Posted March 24, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted March 24, 2022 Good luck on that one. It is like asking pick-up drivers not to drink 8 beers then drive during any festival. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sydebolle Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 I usually lock myself up during "the silly days" but Songkran without all that childish water splashing is like Christmas without Santa Claus or Easter without coloured eggs and bunnies. But, as everything else here, this suggestion will go unheard and unfollowed, so happy Songkran to everybody and I'll be around in the second half of April again ....... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a brilliant idea. Bound to work. They could follow it up with. Thai motorcyclists asked to refrain from riding without a helmet. Thai drivers asked to refrain from driving without a seat belt and while drunk. The possibilities are endless. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
