These are not real bricks I am sure, just facade thin tiles pasted on the wall. Options -

1. If they are indeed thin tiles just remove them and re-tile this area. (If they are really bricks then you can't do anything, but I am 90% sure they are not)

2. Hang a bloody picture/painting over it, so many "art galleries" in pattaya.

3. Put a whiteboard over it and you can still make use of the whiteboard.

Merry Christmas buddy

bro chonburi,maybe u can put up some mirror to cover the whole thing also,the 42"Tv is one option,putting mirror can make the place look bigger,just my suggestion.

i'm getting a vios. initally thinking same as chunburi, getting a city, but wife chooses a vios. i'm a good husband, so i take vios. white colour. hee hee. now considering whether to auction nice number for my vios. perhaps a '8899'.. 88 because chinese like 88, and 99 because thai like number 9, as it is a auspicious number.

congrats for getting a boring vios like me. Trust me, I just did my 48000km today. Really no problem, and pay only THB 1.1K for the maintenance. Actually I am por lamparing forum host now cos' he/she also a fan of toyota.:p

other than boring looks, vios serve me and staff quite well. fuel efficiency quite good. BTW, just got a tip from a driver who serviced his vios at the service centre, "never ever ever convert to LPG/CNG, cos' save a few baht but end up coming to the workshop more often."

Heng arh! Never convert to LPG and finally today heard from one who did. Guess what? his vios newer than mine.

 

[dietcoke]

sure or not? but it seems like all cars in thailand are fixed with LPG/NGV.

i mean, what is the common fault once u convert to those?

No lah, most are factory default benzine cars except new toyota altis which comes with LPG.

hehehe. city also got more modification options. another good thing about boring vios is mata will usually let pass cos' usually vios is associated with uncles and aunties.

ok, i ask my wife why she choose vios. here's the answer:

because my sister driving honda city, i don't want drive the same as my sister.

for me, i actually wanted a civic, cos sao sao love civic. but wife complain too ex. i was like, 'why u worry, i'm the one paying??!!'

Hehehe. you never read about the resident siam kia's review about the new civic arh? anyway, civic is my 1st sedan in LOS so a lot of sentimental feelings but will sell it soon cos' just kena long kang and also quite old liaoz.

BTW, cannot claim insurance for my civic. :( will not go into details but my staff very very grengjai. Next vehicle purchase will be either a rot tu (toyota commuter 12 seater van) or suzuki 7 seater for company,

just get the toyota communter and u wont go wrong. it basically a hiace van but u need to check the height restriction of the places u will be driving to. the engine is the same turbo diesel engine as the hilux and it rear wheel drive. turning circle can put some smaller car to shame. in city drive mode, u shd get ard 13km per litre, timing belt change every 150,000km.
