I was watching Thai TV last night (well the wife was) and there they had what looked like long tail boat racing... looked very entertaining. I hope the Pattaya/Jomtiem races do not result in someone getting killed as I think happened last time.

Good. I often spend a long time worrying about "the convenience of those involved throughout" any such event...
