brommers Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 I use the centigrade temperature scale, like most of the world, and the lower numbers make it feel a lot less hot. But I did lay in extra stocks of ice, gin, tonic, beer, wine and fruit juice. Every nook and cranny of both my bar fridges are now full so I should be able to get through the next 5 days without dehydration or needing to venture into the water wars. I hope everyone has a most enjoyable Songkran, or Songkarn as the Tops promo emails call it. We all need a respite from the election, the pollution and other irritations. May a good time be had by all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FolkGuitar Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 Sa wa dee pi mai! Stay cool and dry except for a few splashes to welcome in the new year! I'll avoid walking around the Moat this year, as I have an eye infection already and don't want to exacerbate it with swamp water, but I will stroll around the neighborhood for an hour or two while shopping.

Lacessit Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 In my GF's village to escape the madness that is Chiang Mai. Not getting wet; however, fireworks at 3 am is disturbing my beauty sleep. Travelling by car and eschewing the scooter until it's over. Had the aircons cleaned and recharged a few days ago. 600 baht. A lot to like about the cost of living here.

You're on your Chiang Mai shtick again. The emotion of that thought has evidently provoked you into multiple misspellings. I suggest a cup of tea, a Bex, and a good lie down.
