September 8, 201312 yr On Lamai Beach. I'm just wondering how I can get "Steak 2 More the relaxing" and I would really like to join them for "Launch". Also note the sign in the rear, it seems like their neighbor is not a happy competitor.

September 9, 201312 yr Shady resort... Your sense of humour really is different to mine! Apparently! Let's take it from there, shall we. How can this not be funny? . I am laughing again when I see the picture. Edited September 9, 201312 yr by Dancealot
September 21, 201312 yr Continuing the theme of Samui's improving road safety awareness - here is a sign at the Bophut traffic lights. It is difficult to see and not clear. Probably causes a few accidents by people trying to read it. I apologise for the poor quality - Micky Mouse camera and a useless photographer (and it's a busy junction).
September 21, 201312 yr Out of curiosity, is this "don't stop at accidents" an official policy and if so, what's the "official" reasoning behind it? Onlookers might attack you, thinking you're the d***head who caused it all? I know I must not stop but it takes a bit of reconditioning when you've been taught all your life to stop & help or else.
September 21, 201312 yr I suspect that it is to stop 'rubber necking'. I have always stopped at accidents if I am first on the scene. I never stop when there is a crowd. I have even been arrested and accused of causing one accident by a Thai guy who arrived about 10 minutes after the accident. Usually the Thais all stand around and gawp - causing more traffic congestion than the actual accident. In the picture, the emergency crew have already arrived. Yet again, a good idea (promoting road safety) but lost in translation in this case?
September 21, 201312 yr In response to Tropicalevo; In Thai it says something along the lines of; 'Accidents are less if you stay within the road rules'. wMakes you Wonder who takes credit for this translation! Bing or Google! Edited September 21, 201312 yr by limbos

October 2, 201312 yr Rooo, you must invite BigC as guest of honour at our next TV shindig. (By the way what date is it again?)
October 3, 201312 yr Not a sign as such, but worth noting that a fire hydrant is now sticking up in the carriageway @ tesco lights! (It's in the left lane & is particularly dangerous for anyone turning left onto the lake road).
October 4, 201312 yr Seen this in a couple of spots! Their spelling is improving. I thought that this one should be outside Galaxy Bar
October 20, 201312 yr This wasn't on Samui...but made me laugh when I saw it the other day It's a cracker
November 25, 201312 yr Here some at Duty Free Shop at Samui Airport, from last year.. https://www.facebook.com/wiener.schnitzel.1/media_set?set=a.252976684825801.55861.100003404154923&type=3 Surely the "Drunk" sign is the best.
