Brit_Doggie Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 On perusing tvf noticed today that the fire brigade have today arrived at my complex 6 times already to fill up the water tanks,now i know it's my birthday today so i did shower this am as i do annualy on this momentous occasion,but honestly i don't go overboard on the water at 40baht per cubic metre so i can only guesstimate that the fire brigade are topping up in readiness for the other momentous occasion,and naturally spoiling the fun for those who dislike iced water thrown at them,keep the ice in the beer not down my neck you blighters.

edd Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Only had 2 occasions to use the fire brigade in Thailand. Once at my home at the top of Nernplabwan. Called them because some idiot was burning grass just over my wall, the flames were 3 ft from my roof. When the fire service arrived they only had a wagon no water and 1 man. He came to see if it needed a proper pump. The second was in isan out side Udon thani. My house cought fire (Good Thai wiring) and burnt down. It took the fire service 25 minutes to come 8 kilometers because they don't keep water in the engines tank and have to fill it before they start off. They said that if they left it full it would damage the tyres. My house was a compleat loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And today I have visions of many water fights, but if a house caught fire nobody would consider throwing a bucket of water over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
