Re: German man brutally attacked by Koh Tao copycats

The male kids here are a joke...way out of control, arrogant, selfish, violent for no reason and desensitized to so much with a constant mantra in the background from family that they are special, can do no wrong and they are certainly not taught to be responsible for their actions. Mix that with t...

Re: What system is in place regarding the privacy of PMs?

FWIW, I would never in a million years use a messaging system on a site like this and assume it was secure. That's not a slur on the integrity of the admin and moderators, but the people who wrote the code in the first place have (if they are any good) left back-doors in and, in my paranoid world, s...

Re: How Dirty Is Your Area? - A Step by Step Test

I've just got into this 'the walking dead' game.... It's not so much a game but more a movie where you decide what happens next. There used to be books like it beforehand where at the bottom of the page you had a choice (turn to page 20 if you want to follow Peter into the woods. Turn to page 36 if...

Re: Bars on Soi 80 (incl photos)

I don't quite understand what all this research and drawing new maps is all about. Te bars change all the time, new names, new ownership, new girls etc. What is the point of all this work, who is it serving? It's a massively useful resource to those of us who are less familiar with the town. I have...

Re: Rail crossing upgrades

I have a morbid fear of level crossings, even in the UK, so you can imagine what I'm like here. Whenever I cross the lines in daylight hours, I'm checking back and forth and there are always people wandering up and down. At dusk, most of them are carrying torches. You've seen this, presumably : http...

Re: Any Hua Hin CrossFitters??????



Seriously? Crossfit?

Follow a progressive lifting programme like SL5x5 and intersperse with a cardio programme (running, cycling). Watch your macronutrients.

That's it. Don't go in for this hokum. Really, you're going to hurt yourself.

Re: The WOW Science Thread

I think the solar panels are actually Philae's skin and don't deploy as such. It's just that Philae is sitting in a position where it only gets a small amount of sunshine as the comet revolves. Yes, I read this too. It's in the shadow of a cliff so Philae has gone into "sleep" mode. On a ...

Re: ventolin inhalers

Any pharmacy stocks them. Take your old one in to show them what you want, hand over 200Bt-ish. Done, no prescription required.

Re: Moving back to home country after living in Thailand

Tom,

I'm genuinely delighted that you've found somewhere you can be comfortable in. That said, I'll be sorry to lose a (budding) Chang partner and hope you will get in touch for a swifts one lunchtime when you are back in HH.

Best of luck, my friend,

PDM

If you've already paid for the apps, you can download them again without paying twice.
