Now that would be worth forgoing the odd shower for. But actually itās a good point I doubt the authorities gave that a thought. -

I keep an eye on the water levels over at Maprachan when Iām out that way and the lakes is still relatively full compared to the drought years but I have to say that more and more land is becoming visible just wondering if weāll be able to survive the hot season round the corner without water outages. -

If there is one view in Pattaya that always brings a big smile as you drive down the hill at any time of the day this is my most favourite. -

Iāve moved out to Nong Pla Lai and was looking for a shortcut back home from Pong which there is one or two but Google maps isnāt so good on the many unadopted roads so it takes you down some weird and wonderful dead ends. I went down one this afternoon and at the end was this old Merc sitting there abandoned. It really fascinates me when I see such cars like this which you often see even around town on how the hell the got there because in itās day this car wouldnāt have been cheap to buy. I guess itās at least 30 years old. -
Probably no malice or criticism meant you know most of us here have no clue what all these mojo things mean and suffer from fat finger syndrome. And letās not get started on this auto correcting words š©

Getting out of a speeding ticket because you are a foreigner

My driving certificates usually come in the post with a QR Code which I just scan and move on calculating my savings against what itād be cost in England š Who said ferangs always must pay more not all bad in Thailand āŗļø I was away in the uk for a few weeks meanwhile the sneaky buggers installed a camera on the Bowin bypass needless to say I flashed past at 130 and when I checked the limit was 90 š -
I think a lot of people went for the 10% return spiel I had a guy ring me promoting it. Fortunately I am old school thinking that if something sounds to good to be true. However it doesnāt hide the fact thereās a lot of empty Condo buildings around there and its interesting to see how that pans out somebody presumably the banks own them.

It never ceases to amaze me at the rate that this place is growing in what literally seems like overnight especially when Covid was over. Thereās bars and restaurants literally appearing over night or at least that what seems like. Just noticed this morning another place has appeared on the end of the Siam Condo Soi. I donāt know where people are getting their confidence from but good luck to them. Yet one thing that seems quite odd and ominous is there doesnāt seem to much activity at many of the Orange New Nordic Condos I think there must be getting on nearly 20 buildings barely anyone in t

Yes another very moving place I have been. So many young men laid to rest there and quite a few from my home town.

I lived in the Cz Republic for 5 years and went there several times in the depths of winter and it is one the most lasting poignant places I have ever been to in my life. Somehow the feelings you get there is hard to put into words it may sound wrong but anyone who gets a chance should go there. Even seeing your pictures again made me feel the cold silent atmosphere and Iām sat here in my condo in Pattaya now. In a good way a very good reminder of how lucky we was and are not to have lived during that nightmare. Thanks for sharing. BTW did you get chance to go into the Salt Mines also a v

Real pity about Dynamite it was just getting going as well. Just another example though of how tough the business is in Pattaya to survive. All about location location and foot traffic of the masses . Any ideas why I cannot upload anything above 1MB always say file is too big ? -

It never ceases to amaze me what I stumble across in this city. Met some friends at a Thai restaurant round near the Land office tucked up on the small Soiās. The restaurant is full of all sorts of stuff pretty amazing god knows where they got it all from. The food wasnāt bad either but a bit slow because itās busy.
