Black Label is considered expensive for the locals, Red Label still OK, 100 pipers is still the most popular. Good thing in LOS is you can always bring along your own whisky to most dining/pub/bar outlets. Most places don't have charge extra or charge a little for this. They made more money from the mixers and ice. Currently, my favorite is still Blend 285 at THB 195/bottle. Buy by the dozens at Makro.
Vehicle Insurance is not compulsory in LOS. There are various vehicle insurance, the one with most coverage is 1st class insurance(Pra Karn Chan Neung). Worst case scenario is both parties involved in an accident do not have insurance. If only 1 party have, then the claim is very limited . If both parties have, the insurance company/companies settle themself (both parties might be insuring from same insurance company) and claims are more flexible.
New vehicles usually comes with 1st year free insurance. My suggestion is get the insurance for new vehicles. Old vehicles can get the other cheaper class of insurance. Also, if a foreigner ever get involved in a traffic accident with a local, chances is MIB will side with the local even if the local is in the wrong. Best way is to let insurance settle such matters.
Joe, unfortunately, Ramintra Road stretches from Northern BKK (Laksi) all the way to eastern BKK (Minburi), both are affected areas. Northern end of Ramintra will be more affected then the eastern end. As long as the water diversion is in progress and no more damage dykes, think the water in Ramintra will maintain at a reasonable level. Get ready to give your maid a hug when you reach home tomorrow!
Ram-intra Road impassable

* Online news:
The water level on Ram-intra Road, both inbound and outbound, has continued to rise and the road has become impassable, reports said on Tuesday.
On the outbound lanes, water in front of the Central department store is 40-50 centimetres deep. The department store has closed for the second day.
The outbound lanes of Ram-intra Road are also flooded, particularly from kilometre 4 to Lak Si circle.
All sois branching from Ram-intra road from Lak Si to Soi 39 are flooded. Soi 39, in particular, is 60-70cm under water.

Yeah, most Thai pubs and discos make money from mixers. But I never do with mixers by the time the drink gets to Chivas or JW Black level. They must be appreciated and drank on the rocks or straight. Mixing them with Coke or 7-Up or soda is waste and insult to whisky. The mixer money-making culture is designed for the girls. They must be able to stay sober while accompanying you downing the drinks. It caught up when customers who can't really drink and don't mind paying premium whisky prices for cheap aerated water mixers just to soak in the atmosphere and enjoy the company of the ladies.
Do you realize nowadays, most of the ices sold in LOS disco/pub/bars come with a round hole in the ice. Melts faster and so need to order more.
The hole in the middle is to save water as in Thailand, tap water cannot be used for making ice or cooking. They have to use bottled water. Not necessarily mineral water grade but at least bottled water, not from the tap. And the hole in middle makes the ice melt faster too. It encourages drinkers to top up faster.
Singapore mixers are free.........over there water and ice also cost money.........only way they cannot make your money is when you drink neat.
I went to a disco in Surin once and they dun even sell liquor! You can bring your own or buy from another shop just outside......

surin the hometown of tony ja so is it all country side?
Surin part of Isaan, have many elephants, near Cambodia, some people can speak Cambodian language or a hybrid of the language, many people can drink like hell.
That's the origin of Chang beer, almost as strong as special brew. Carabao made some very good advertisements for it with elephant war scenes.
Next time runroaders go Robinson, The Mall or Emporium, look out for this shirt brand called "Hazard". Well, not asking you to buy. I have noticed that Hazard counters employ chio boos who are relatively tall, and Hazard's uniform is damn sexy...skirts damn short with a half vest.
Yes Surin is famous for elephants and black magic....due to proximity to Cambodia.
It's backward country and one of the poorest next to it's sister province sisaket.

They cannot make money from me because I only drink red wine or brandy neat or on the rocks. LOL. And if Isaan food will be beer.
