Well I’d be delighted to change mine if I bought them, as I could very well be into three figures by then!!

Re: How can Thailand curb its appalling road fatality rate?

I couldn’t see in the photo what colour the lights were at, but if they were red and the car didn’t stop then it’s a clear violation of the Highway Code. The crossing light changed from the 'red' man to the little green 'walking' man. Therefore the traffic lights must have been at red. The black va...

Re: How can Thailand curb its appalling road fatality rate?

From Buksi: but "right of way" isn't really a concept that exists in the land of "me first". Neither is the phrase found anywhere in the UK Highway Code: The rules in The Highway Code do not give you the right of way in any circumstance, but they advise you when you should give ...

Re: Football (not Premier League)

Leicester are of course the King Power people and wealthy Thai family left over from their glory days. They'll go up, but if they come back down rapidly I would think we'll see a change in ownership. The only player I know is Vardy, and he's getting old! :laugh: He most definitely is getting old bu...

Re: Premier League 2023-24

Strangely, Chelsea had the greater possession but clearly didn’t do anything threatening having just 7 shots with 1 on target, whereas Arsenal had a massive 27 shots with 10 on target.

Re: Weather in Hua Hin & Thailand

A check of current satellite images shows storms coming over from the west right on top of Cha-Am and Hua Hin. Yellow and reds so there must be some storm activity involved? Let us know if you get a much needed cooling shower? It’s a bit cloudy which has dropped the temperature a bit, but doesn’t l...

Re: Solar power setup for your home in Thailand

Has anyone done a recent review of the payback for having solar power installed - I’m sure that if these sort of temperatures become the norm then more people will want to consider solar?

Re: Electric Vehicles (EV) Thread

This is where I believe Thailand will be heading very soon: History has been made over the period April 1-14, sales of new energy vehicles (NEV) exceeded half of all car sales in China. New energy vehicles is a Chinese umbrella term encompassing a number of types but in reality means largely pure e...
