Thailand Tips: What to do in the event of a car crash, a simple guide to what to do
This is my new series of vlogs. I am NOT an expert and I do NOT know everything, so what I say in these vlogs is based on my personal experience or research. I have been a visitor to Thailand for 2 years this month (October), I first went on a "last ditch, what the hell" trip following my failed back surgery. I could hardly walk and took my walking aid with me. I went to Udon Thani to go to an Agency for finding Thai ladies, who suggested that my disablement was not a factor in finding a nice lady for long term relationship. The agency allegedly vet the members and a lot of their clients come from America. The owner is an ex-Brit and his wife a Thai, had started the agency because of their experiences with relationships etc.
So, I have a Thai wife and have been going back and forth for two years. During 2015 my wife got a visitor visa and came to the UK for 6 months. Unfortunately the UK Immigration denied a second visa this year based on made up reasons.
THIS EPISODE: So you crash your hire car (or personal car) OR more often someone crashes into you. What do you do?
Here's a simple guide to the process, obviously it is not definitive and there are other situations where these suggestions are not appropriate.
UK requires 2 weeks self-isolation upon return, however the likes of Thailand requires 2 weeks when arriving but only in approved hotels at your expense.
The question is, would you do this for the sake of a holiday?

Thailand Adventure 9: Day 2, part 2
The beginning of the journey, and the calm before the storm. We pick up the hire car and head home. At home, time for lunch, spicy noodles (I prefer the thick wide ones).
After lunch we head out to BIG-C, so I can change some money and Tad wants to get some shopping, however, I promised to get a fan as there isn't enough in the house. The air con is in our bedroom.

This is my 3rd documented trip to Thailand to tour the vast country, to visit family and meet people.
ROADTRIP !!!
Today we're off to Kam Chanod (temple) which is North East of Udon Thani near to Ban Dung.
Nestled in a forested area, the temple is surrounded by ancient trees and hides the spirits of the past inside.
It was a long 4-hour drive probably due to the numerous stops we made, including a lot of 7-11's (sorry Thailand Rob) and lunch in Kumphawapi, the town where we had our first date.

Our day of eat and drink continued with going to the Robin Hood in the Avenue Mall. This was followed by a look at the market and a wander down soi 13/1, Beach Road and up Soi 8, on Nuch's suggestion.
2 Bars and 2 Beers, Sam's Bar was last on the list, which led to Nuch playing pool.

This LAST special episode of my latest adventure to Thailand features a brief look at the improvements made in disability access since April 2016 (now August 2016). A whole area of Khon Kaen around the tourist hotels down to the Hospital have got a make-over with drop kerbs and signage. The idea is great, but then the route is blocked by cars and other stuff on the pavements! A good attempt, but in need of more thought? It could be a good job for me if I moved to Khon Kaen, perhaps a disability advisor? I have no idea if that would work or be even feasible with no Thai language. Maybe just a pipe dream.
