Popular Post snoop1130 Posted May 19, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 19, 2022 A monitor lizard was found in a large water pump in Bangkok’s Bang Khen district yesterday (Wednesday), disrupting its operation and that of three more in adjacent areas and leaving them unable to pump floodwater away during the heavy showers which have been falling since Tuesday night. Bang Khen district was one of the hardest hit by flooding yesterday.

The pumps drain water from Ram Intra Soi 5, the Amarin housing estate and nearby areas into a canal in the area.

No I think you misunderstood. The lizard was put in charge of pump maintenance by the lazy bar stewards, so as the pumps failed they can now blame the lizard.???? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thunglom Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 Excuses! Excuses! As the experts say, monitors are attracted to water. So when designing the pump, one would expect the engineers to anticipate this and make them monitor proof! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OMG, It looked like a crocodile, it was huge, I can understand why the water pumps are failing, getting a small crocodile stuck in there would stop the flow.
