Yet, something that we all struggle with adapting to in some degree or other. Yet, at the same time, something that kind of appeals to us in many ways.

john luke Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 I was unaware that expanded polystyrene could be used in road construction. We learn something new every day. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2352146520301952 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fforest Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 Yes folks......You are seeing the 166 million baht budget for the beach walkway in all its glory.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fforest Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 (edited) I might not live to see it but some day in the future all this concrete they are pouring ,will be dug up, so they can plant trees and bushes and flowers and make a really beautiful walkway.... The last walkway lasted from 2014-2020.....6 years....But the rebuild was delayed by covid and screwups....

Think something got lost in the translation of "planted" though. Just ato annoy fforrest even more, those beautiful new year's decorations have been taken down and this with even less shade is being put up in its place... 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite often I see the burnt out remains of pile of wire like that on the jungle trails we run. They burn off the insulation to get at the wire which leaves a toxic, unsightly mess behind on an otherwise beautiful jungle trail.

fforest Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 Take a good look at the WHITE and light blue pavers they have been laying all over town... Notice any thing? Like maybe they looked very very dirty from pretty much the first day they were installed.... If you run across any of the old RED brick colored pavers look at them...Even thoe they have been there for decades you just don't notice dirt very much on RED pavers... And what color are the beach pavers?......well there you go... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If only foot traffic they would probably hold up well, but with motorbikes and the occasional truck on the footpath, I expect they'll soon start cracking from the weight. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
