This is the exact location of the spot check I mentioned last night. Actully this is a private road and is very new, just opened for use about 7-8 months ago.

It is located 300 metres from the junction of Thepprasit Soi 8 (daeng dam kopitiam). As there is a bend at both directions, so driver or riders wont know until too late and dont bother to do a u-turn cos they already station plain clothes at both ends.

If I not wrong, the entire plot of land is own by Singha Corporation including D Luck cinema.Can see the pink condo at Thappraya Road and also Pattaya Tower.

gayphone zooming capability still not as good as galashit phone.

I know this place well. But never been inside.

Dont bother to try this one. Shop used to be known as Tor Park Kuay Tiow. Just change hand. Looks like previous owner gave up the lease. Anyway, I will post the location of another Tor Pak Kuay Tiow. Its in Soi Ti Din (land office). Very near to Camel Toe gentlemen club (short time fuck shop).

This is the location of Tor pak kuay Tiow main branch.

Southern curry rice again. Taste alot like Nyonya curry.



Actually this is Thai belachan chilly (prik kapi). Very very spicy and aroi.

Just realised many shops and restaurants in Thepprasit Road and Jomtien area are closed for new year. Even some of the bar beers also close. This is sign that times is very bad cos usually this is the best time of the year to make money for the bars.

Seems that most of the holiday makers now are locals instead of foreigners.

I envy your comfortable 22C in Thailand.
In Toronto, we have been getting an extended record breaking very cold spell since last week, and this bone chilling cold is forecasted to be around till at least January 9, 2018.
On Dec 27, 2017, it was record low of minus 22C, excluding the windchill.

Here is playlist of “kab rot hia” means driving sibeh sia lan or lao lan.

Trust me. It took me many many years to achieve the current Very cool (jai yen yen) status. Those who know me personally know i used to be very hot tempered when driving. Must thanks my ex number 1 and number 2 and also my elderly folk in sinkieland for their constant nagging. Nowadays even my neighbors and friends whom I tompang as pillon also nag nag nag.

My advice, can give way. Give way. How much time can you lose? Also very important, dont anyhow aggressive horn or high beam in Siam Lor. This one is a sure way to get into trouble.

By the way. A lot of drivers (both male and female) carry some sort of weapons in the car. The main purpose is security especially for the ladies. My ex staff have a 12 inch blade sword under driver seat as she lives in a quiet moo baan(village) in the quiet outer suburbs.

As for me, cannot say lah.
