          It's the Thai new year...also called the water festival...basically it's just an excuse to get drunk as shit and hose everyone you see with water...and then get on your motorbike and kill yourself...Fun stuff...at least for the Thais...

          It actually is a serious holiday with much tradition...you might want to read here for more accurate info...

            It's an annual deathfest to see how many innocent folk you can (accidentally on purpose) cause to have a motorcycle accident.

            It's fucking pathetic and is an annual stain on this otherwise great place to live.

                        picking up my laundry yesterday in pattaya, a full week before official songkran, i get hosed by a drunk thai bar lady on soi diana. after me she takes dead aim at motorcyclists, who, unprepared for this early 'celebration' narrowly avoid one another in passing.
                        oh boy, songkran, can't fucking wait.

                              I was all set to come over from Dubai for a week through Songkran but after reading all your thoughts I decided to stay put until the start of May. Mind you, the thought of wet t-shirts in Guess Bar nearly swayed me!

                              Right, off to watch United beat the 'Invincibles'...

                                it's way to fucking hot during Songkran.
                                I am there during the cool season from Dec1 - Feb 28 and from June1 - Aug31, as the rainy season begins.
                                Therefore I can have Spring & Autumn in Oz.
