Technically anything that's paved can be called a pavement. But then the sidewalks in Bangkok are made of ceramic tiles, so what's up with that? They just finished replacing a whole lot of them all along Ratchaprarop and nearby streets. You can see those tiles in the photo. This is Thailand, not the US. It's your problem if you don't understand proper English! Bangkok's pavements are not constructed using ceramic tiles, they're what most places have in the bathroom!

I was explaining to her that my wife's family were building accommodation for some farm animals and on one day they built an internal wall and on the next day they planned to work on the far side of the wall but they hadn't left an aperture in the wall so that you could pass through to the other side. She explained that there was no phrase in the Thai language that meant forward planning because, I suppose, the Thais don't need it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
