    Gaybutton got a reaction from TotallyOz in Heat shock: Bangkok to hit scorching 45.8C   
    Around 2 months ago I started seeing weather people predicting an exceptionally hot summer.  They turned out to be right,  For those who are used to Fahrenheit temperature, 45.8°C = nearly 115°F.  I don't plan to be out in it any more than I have to.  For some strange reason I don't care to risk heat stroke.  I'll be spending most of the day indoors with air conditioning.  Fortunately the morning temperatures up to about 11:00am are no problem and evenings and night are also cool enough.  But between around 11:00am until around 5:00pm, that's when the most severe temperatures occur.

    Many diabetic medicines can be purchased over the counter at Thai pharmacies without a prescription. 
    I prefer the Fascino pharmacy and there are many of them.  You might want to go to Fascino's Facebook page, switch over to English, click on 'Contact Us' and ask if they carry what you're using - or a generic equivalent - and if it can be purchased over the counter.  You might also ask them about their prices.

    Look on the apps.  I've seen many times pairs of boys advertising themselves for threesomes.  I'm sorry, I can't point specifically to any of them.  Threesomes are not my interest, so I didn't pay much attention.  Nevertheless, they are there.
    Also, if you are chatting with a boy on the apps, tell him you are looking for a threesome.  He mighty be interested or might know someone who is.  Can't hurt to try.

    If that is what he said, that tells me all I would want to know.  I would never ask a boy to do something he made clear he doesn't like.  For what?  The boy won't enjoy it and neither will you if you know you are making him do what he doesn't want to do.
    A little shopping around, including the apps, and you'll find what you want with willing boys.  Don't you think willing boys would be much better?
    I would leave the mama-sans out of it completely.  They'll want a BIG tip and they can be very good at coercing the boys to do what they don't want to do.

    Getting between cities shouldn't be a problem.  Plenty of buses and mini vans for that.  I would rent a car only if you would need it for getting around at your destination.  Again, taxis should take care of getting around unless you are going to a very rural area.  Even then, motorbike taxis will likely be available.
    I would not recommend renting a car in Thailand unless it is absolutely necessary and no alternative is available. Even then, make sure you are renting from a reputable agency - with insurance.  Never rent from some street corner rental.  You might as well advertise yourself as "gullible farang victim". 
    Also, if you decide to rent anyway, make sure you have a valid international driving permit and a valid driving license from your home country.

    Kamikaze trucks - I've never seen it put that way before, but that is a perfect description. 
    I would change "poor" lane discipline to "zero" lane discipline.  Trucks are supposed to stay in the left lane, which in Thailand is the slow lane.  But when they want to pass slower trucks, out they come into the next lane regardless of whether any traffic is already occupying the space they are about to enter.  When they do use their turn signals, that only means a warning that they are changing lanes instantly.  Often they drive in the wrong lane and stay there.  For me, the safe place to be is once those trucks are behind you.
    I agree with Khaolakguy about being able to stop and explore whatever and wherever you want on the way to your destination.  That would be a good reason to rent a car.  But if what you want to do is just get from Point A to Point B, if you're not experienced driving in Thailand, I would recommend taking a bus - which would be far less expensive anyway.  Besides, when making a long drive, if you haven't pre-planned those kinds of stops, how often do you really do that?
    One thing I believe is a must - no matter how reputable the rental company is.  Take plenty of pictures of the car from every angle before driving one inch.  Some of these places will try to say you damaged the car when you didn't.  Some of the fly-by-night places intentionally leave damage on the car, hoping you won't notice, and then try to charge you an exorbitant price to have it repaired, and then try to intimidate you into paying it.
    In Thailand you need to be worried just as much, if not more, about scams than about accidents - which is why I think in most cases you are better off not renting a car.

    When living in Thailand it doesn't take long to expect it to be that way, so it rarely comes as a major shock or surprise to me.  But things like that come as a very unpleasant surprise to people who don't understand the way things work in Thailand and have no idea how to deal with it when things happen.  You either live with it and accept it as part of life in Thailand or Thailand is the wrong country to live in.  The worst mistake I see foreigners make is if they try to argue when things like that happen.  All that ever does is make things worse,often much worse, especially if they raise their voice.
