Can they send some here? Village main road has been rebuilt with concrete 6 meter wide. Guess what happens. Always concerned to go out with the dogs. Before is had speed bumps, cracks and potholes. Good old times.

Just read the thread about Phuket with respecting headline. For Thailand that's quite a remarkable change. What about Pattaya?

I use it for short rides around the village and out to the fields. But with it's standard seat I wouldn't want to do long trips. You can be sure that you get all modifications you can think of. One of the most built motor vehicles ever. Every roadside mechanic in Thailand can do basic repair. Parts are dirt cheap. The wheels are bigger than scooter wheels and I feel more stable than on a girlie scooter like Scoopy i.

Was too early this morning 😁

Beware! If you buy at TOPS and see a discount on a product, you will get this only with the membership (aka registered phone number). Otherwise regular price. Saves me a significant amount over the year. At BigC I sometime save some xxx Baht on points build up. Have no clue Discounts apply with and without membership. Makro and Lotus's more or less worthless. At Makro you get some cheapish stuff after a five digit amount build up (might be 20k or 30k). Lotus very little purchase. Never bothered about 7/11 although now proud owner of a TrueMoney wallet (quite handy for small purchases at many shops/services).

10th and 11th

Serious massage are not open after midnight. Some close as early as 9 PM. Walking barefoot on the road? A no go in Thailand.

2 by 3 meters?

One place only? Summer somewhere in northern Italy at one of the big lakes. Is George Clooney's villa still on sale 😁 Northern winter on the southern hemisphere. Brazil?

Just in case you want to study in detail Thepphrasit road near Soi 11: https://maps.app.goo.gl/MN1PaXTUwFvBgjTy5

Yes, seems different worlds. Never entered mobile number to get a queue ticket at immigration, DLT or bank.

Good that my car has rear and front view camera. More about driving over one of my dogs. Why not mandatory for new pickup models.

Just seen a video about Bali Hai parking. Same procedure. What shortcut is possible!? How the heck did he get onto the parking deck? Absolute death wish. Blurred vision after operation but driving through Pattaya city. Watching traffic you might think there are more such drivers.

Delivery truck running out of fuel. Fool! On a bridge, worst possible location.

How does this "automated parking" work? What has the guy to do at the parked vehicle? Did he sit in the car while it was moved around? Seen a video from such a building in Udon Thani (Bangkok Hospital). Simply said: you drive into a bay (closed walls). Leave and lock the car, get out, shutter closes, get some card, walk away. Car will be moved to the parking lot completely unattended. Come back, put card in some reader and wait for car to be brought back. No chance to misstep anywhere. Is that different in Bali Hai?
