@SnarkyPlatypus Here are rather too many different kinds of shower bench. http://t.co/Y6z1koV4bY

@SnarkyPlatypus Is it the kind of bench to help old people get into the bath or be washed? Is the room wheelchair-friendly?

@SnarkyPlatypus Confirmed, top place in 2013. The airport is at number nine. http://t.co/P4IW1H1snJ

via Janetter for Mac

@SnarkyPlatypus Yeah you’d only have to go one stop on the subway. But you’re right, Skytrain will give you the better orientation.

via Janetter for Mac in reply to SnarkyPlatypus

@SnarkyPlatypus So you’re changing at Phaya Thai to the Skytrain? Seems the long way around. http://t.co/PM83CYS1su

via Janetter for Mac

@SnarkyPlatypus Oh, I forget that the airport link is SRT rather than BTS. Bloody Thai infrastructure politics.

via Janetter for Mac in reply to SnarkyPlatypus

@SnarkyPlatypus You should have an excellent view from the BTS Skytrain on the way into the city.

via Janetter for Mac in reply to SnarkyPlatypus

@SnarkyPlatypus That’s why the terminal building is designed to look like snake scales. Also, passive cooling! http://t.co/7FwkdduTo8

@SnarkyPlatypus “The airport is located in a once low-lying marsh, formerly known as Nong Ngu Hao (Thai: หนองงูเห่า, lit. ‘Cobra Swamp’).”

@NuclearAnthro @IndianExpress Well indeed. Australians, despite the lack of respect for class and authority, are really quite compliant.

via Janetter for Mac in reply to NuclearAnthro

@NuclearAnthro @IndianExpress Interesting experiment for India. I suspect the “success” of compulsory voting is culturally dependent.
