I think they keep talking this <deleted> to remind the rest if the world it legalised

Do carry my passport? Not on your nelly, i even travelled by car to south thailand from bkk and never thought to take my passport, i check into resorts and hotels with just my driving licence, i did get asked one resort in samui for my passport but they accepted my DL in the end.

thats obvious but with my friend when they seen the picture of a moped on his home car licence they assumed it meant he was licenced to ride a motorbike when in reality it only allows a 50cc moped, when we arrived home my friend asked...what does this motorbike licence allow me to do? I said it mean you can go and buy a 1000cc motorbike today and ride legally, he replied but i have never ridden anything with 2 wheels apart from a bicycle.

But for some reason they also require the original licence along with the IDP which shows a picture of a moped.

Took a friend to get his thai licence in bkk, he had an international from the uk, when i seen a lady at one counter talking to him i thought maybe he had forgotten something, when i asked he said she asked why he did,nt get his motorcycle licence also, he came away with a thai car and motorcycle licence and told me he had never ridden anything with two wheels apart from a bicycle before, it seems they seen the small picture of a moped on his uk licence saying he would be allowed to ride a moped with 50cc and assumed it meant motorcycle.

Regarding fuel consumption i have a manual vios and always used it for fishing trips-a friend had exactly the same car but automatic - we often travelled the same route together, his auto used quite a bit more fuel than my manual.

My answer was gears and clutch as i bought a new triumph bonneville just a few days ago...dont think they do automatics but i have a honda pcx automatic which gets used for 7/11 and the market, my car (toyota vios) also manual-clutch and gears is 17 years old had it from new and runs-drives same as new, i have had automatic cars in europe-jags and mercs - i like automatics in big cars only, In my experience automatic cars at least use more fuel than manual.

i,m talking unfurnished, waste of time looking on the internet, just find a property advertised with a sign or ask the local noodle shop then speak to the owner, first house i rented was in prawet.. brand new 2 bedroom 5k per month... i enjoy moving every 3-4 years, I need a garden because i own a dog.

i would advise not to buy any condo or property here when rents are so cheap, i rent a 3 bedroom bungalow for 7000 per month, the previous house rental was 6000 for a 2 bedroom bungalow.... this is in bkk and they are so easy to find.

i was paying the full price.. thy just wanted paying every 2 days or hand over my card and pin number that was nono 100%

i spent a week in hospital after heart failure and never seen a single doctor, only nurses who would lift me onto a gurney and wheel me to the atm every 2 days, had to sign myself out, gf came and wheeled me out to a taxi, i was in a realy bad condition.

surprised anyone would buy wine in thailand at these prises

renewed mine today, mine finished on the 24th of march, when you make an appointment they give you a paper to show the cops should you get stopped, i still find the system there a shambles though and many people had copies when they needed originals.

dog and a golf bat

they made it legal now they should just leave it alone and stop the misinformation

Few weeks ago was talking with and american guy and asked if he works here, he said yeas with a smile and said thai space program... i started laughing then he said serious, I asked what exactly and he told about this satalite they were building and said with all the corruption and zero its almost impossible so far as they order parts they get suppleid not from the manufacturer but who can skim the most money, we just get supplied with incompatible parts.

I cant think of any reason to be offended when a slope calls me farang ????

Why do all government minsters look like hardened criminals?

If they only plan on making the leaf legal i cant understand why anyone would be interested

A leaf from a plant that does nothing will increase carnage....pls explain?

in greece american tourists were sewing on canadian maple leaf badges trying to diguise themselves so not to get stones and such thrown at them

I always felt being stoned made me drive slower and more aware

No matter so long as its crushed cockroaches... the stuff the empire was built on

Gimme pg tips anyday
