Health And Safety Thai Style

[jimslim]

Spent a couple of weeks in the Areca , soi Diana recently.

A great  hotel , but if you stay there be careful if you sunbathe at the back pool .

I'm lying down when suddenly a large shadow passes over head , behind the hotel a new hotel is being built , but the crane they are using is a little too big , every time it does a 360 degree turn it overlaps one side of the Areca pool , not a problem you might think , well the  problem is they are carrying pallets of bricks and girders  

One day we hear an almighty crash , yep they dropped a whole pallet of bricks , luckily on their own side of the fence .

Needless to say I moved to the other side of the pool , I just have a feeling my Tesco yearlong policy is bound to have a get out clause if a Thai builder drops bricks on my head

Yes, it does pay to read the fine print in those insurance policies.  

At least now I understand why you were wearing a hard hat whilst sunbathing by the pool.  

At the time, I figured it was merely an attempt to avoid that harsh sun.

I wouldnt stay around that area again if you paid me 3000 baht a night. the whole area is one fucking building site and has been blighted for as long as i remember....Or bring a set of industrial earplugs... or stay in Jomtien

Hard hat by day , hard on by night

Well at least they provided lifeguards

[seamus]

Now Jim, She is not going to be that much help laying the Tarmac on that Building site, now is She

[jimslim]

She's a lifeguard Seamus , not suited for heavy labour , but well trained in the breast stroke , the doggie paddle and can give mouth to mouth plus flip you over to the recovery position afterwards

I say,big son,thats a fine looking young filly.
Where did you find her?

Rumour has it she is good at laying many things,although tarmac is not one of them!

Not that i would know anything about that,just a rumour i heard.

ciobha, your avatar kicks ass.  Family Guy was replaced by it's lame doppelganger, American Dad on UBC series Saturday at 9:30, but it should be back soon, hopefully. Thankfully that shitty show King of the Hill is gone starting this week and replaced by The Simpsons @21:00.

PS sorry for being off topic

[brocklanders]

American Dad is darker and more satirical than Family Guy..I like it.

[bigmick22]

I agree with Brocklanders Family guy has too many 'this reminds me of the time when " as parodied in one South Park episode. American Dad is dark and that appeals to me
