I thought i'd start a thread on all those great sounds which radiate throughout the Land of Siam. Great in the sense that the brains behind them, believe that you either love or simply don't mind them.

I am only having a bitta fun, so don't go thinking i'm an old complaining expat!What do you think?

>That loud 'beep beep' sound you hear every time you enter 7-11.
>"Rap arai eek mai kha". Constantly being asked if you want to buy anything else by the cashier at 7-11.
>Sound of blaring pick-up trucks driving down the streets promoting products/politicians.
>Barking dogs at night.
>Neighbours loud stereo at 7 in the morning.
>Construction workers banging away next door at 7 in the morning.
>Angry screaming women on Thai soap operas.
>Blaring speakers coming from the local temple.
>Modified super-loud motorbikes.
>Drunk Thai guys shouting "Hello, where you come from?"
>Drunken locals singing Karaoke.
>Thai pop love songs.
>Loud Farang guys at bar-beers boasting how much they are adored by Thai women.

Love 'em or loathe 'em?
Can you think of anymore?
