Back on topic, It's nice to be able to go cycling almost every day. Back in the UK I wasn't able to cycle once a week.

The airports are atrocious here. 4hr immi queues are the norm, particularly in high season. Violence against farangs happens daily. I can't stand golf. bob. "Violence against farangs happens daily." Not really a criticism of Thailand. Some types will find a beating wherever they go. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TroubleandGrumpy Posted Sunday at 03:24 AM Share Posted Sunday at 03:24 AM In addition to all the others - Makes my Thai wife happy to live here Travelling is cheap and not always looking at speedo (SFA cameras and fine not ludicrous) OK to have a few drinks (not drunk) and drive home Movies are cheap Golf is great (but not cheap) Can travel cheaply to a fantastic beachside resort when they offer a special deal on short notice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woof999 Posted Sunday at 03:29 AM Share Posted Sunday at 03:29 AM I moved up to the north-east a few months ago. Since then, driving has become good fun again, for the first time since maybe the 90s. OK, so I have to dodge the odd cow, and perhaps some four legged animals too, but there are few to no speed cameras, almost zero police, roads in better condition than back in the west and little to no traffic on the roads outside of rush hour. Even then it's still pretty light. I'm tempted to buy a driver's car again rather than wallow around in a Fortuner. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're feeding the moronic diversion tactics of a foolish troll. While extremely tragic on a personal level - the statistics and numerous news articles tell the reality. My individual experiences and anecdote is irrelevant - whether or not I have personal experience of loss through DUI does nothing except feed the dumb troll asking such a stupid question. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJHOUSE Posted Sunday at 10:16 AM Share Posted Sunday at 10:16 AM Go to a beach here and you'll see trash everywhere so you can take that off the list. And the weather, remove that too because the sun is often so intense that you can't even be outside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Needs to be avoided. I was surprised to see so many people praising the weather. I often leave Thailand for periods of time just to get away from the weather, particularly the excessive heat and humidity. And then you got the immense air pollution on top of it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
