  1. Just as well it was the HGV and not one of our generously proportioned BMs! πŸ˜„
  2. ^^^ It's great to see blue sky in those pics. (Hope it wasn't Photoshopped! πŸ˜ƒ)
  3. Thanks. I'm not sure what to make of the article as it makes no mention of Cambodia, which I thought was a major contributor to the pollution in Pattaya, Bangkok, etc. through agricultural burning.
  4. https://www.facebook.com/nbtworld NNT- National News Bureau of Thailand The Ministry of Interior, through the Department of Disaster Prevention and Mitigation, reveals three strategic approaches to address issues related to forest fires, haze, and fine particulate matter (PM2.5) pollution 1. Pollution Reduction at the Source: Collaboration between districts and local administrative organizations is emphasized to prevent and reduce pollution at the source (origin). Authorities with legal responsibilities are directed to enforce laws rigorously. 2. Public Awareness Campaign:
  5. NOT misty! That is haze from pollution. Mist "is a phenomenon caused by small droplets of water suspended in the cold air, usually by condensation". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mist
  6. And for this one! I recently have returned to the UK after five and a half weeks in Patts. For the majority of that time, I was unwell to some extent or another with respiratory issues. Those caused lack of sleep, and that made me, to use your words, "feel like hell". I have another trip planned for 4 weeks in March. I'm seriously wondering if I should cancel it.
  7. https://www.facebook.com/nbtworld NNT- National News Bureau of Thailand The Pollution Control Department (PCD) has issued an urgent warning regarding the hazardous levels of PM 2.5 particulate matter in the air, impacting 20 provinces across Thailand. The alert calls for immediate action to address and mitigate the severe air quality crisis that poses significant health risks to millions of residents. The provinces on high alert include major urban centers such as Bangkok, Pathum Thani, and Nonthaburi, as well as key industrial regions lik
  8. Bachelor's agogo in Soi LK was having work done on it as I walked by a little earlier: If the state of the mattresses is anything to go by, it is long overdue!
  9. It looked like construction work had re-commenced on the Las Vegas beer bars (Soi Diana) as I walked by a little earlier today:
  10. Thanks. I think it would be good if you could get that to Bangkok Post, Khaosod English, etc.
  11. For me, it is very worrying that the bad pollution in Pattaya does NOT seem to be arising from sugar cane burning, and I have not read a plausible explanation of the culprit. I fear that it is just general pollution from vehicle exhaust, factories, construction/deconstruction etc., and so will be very difficult to tackle.
  12. https://thepattayanews.com/2023/12/11/provinces-grapple-with-hazardous-ultrafine-dust-levels/ PRESS RELEASE: Thailand witnessed a concerning environmental situation on Sunday afternoon (Dec 10), with approximately 40% of its regions experiencing thick and hazardous levels of ultrafine dust, as reported by the Geo-Informatics and Space Technology Development Agency (GISDA). GISDA’s report on https://pm25.gistda.or.th/ revealed that 31 out of the 77 provinces in Thailand, primarily in the Central Plain, experienced unsafe levels of particulate matter measuring 2.5 micromet
  13. A few months ago, I went to have a few moles in various places on my body checked out. By recommendation, I saw Dr Nitivadee Teeyapan-Songdej - website: www.lanitivadee.com email: dr.nitivadee@gmail.com She is located on Beach Road, near Mike's Mall (but the entrance is not easy to spot as it is located behind some stalls). She seemed to know her stuff, and didn't charge the earth (although I don't recall precisely how much).
  14. I took a look along the far end of Walking Street last evening. It is so much different from how it was, say, 5 years ago. It is dominated by dance clubs catering for Indians, plus some (I assume) gogos offering "Russian Girls". I hope these pics give a flavour of the place. I thought this place in Soi Diamond would have been forced to have changed its name before now. I'm a sucker for long hair. πŸ˜€ She had a pretty face as well!
