Squid can't help being damp, they live in the water. Did you mean 'squib' by any chance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It clearyl says in your link people start travelling not when it starts so clearly you got your blinkers on.

The best viewing were the girls without bra's, wearing T-shirts, once they got wet those little nipples sticking out, when hit with some cold water. Also its the interaction with the girls. I remember a few years back, I was riding my PCX down soi 7 and got stopped by the mob, the girls sprayed me with water and talcum powered my face and 1 lovely put her little hand down my shorts and gave willy a hello. ???? Nothing better than to be partying with a Drunken bar girl at Songkran. Bring it back. ????????????

Just because Pattaya does odd things doesnt make it normal. Well you are reading and posting in a Pattaya centric forum. I hear it is quiet in the villages of Korat from my Mrs.... her family have got a place to get together and be isolated from non-family (the house that jack(o) built).... seems people are not doing the usual water things there, which is sad. They have been persuaded the Covid situation is still of concern. That said, I have yet to venture into Pattaya to see what is going on there... just takes one drunken goon and you have a motorcycle accident or a bricked phone!

Lots of that sort of stupid stuff by foreigners on Soi Buakhao over the years at Songkran. In Pattaya it's the foreigners that destroy the experience. They think it's funny to attack you with those high pressure water pipes in recent years. Thank God high pressure guns have been outlawed.
