Hey, it's only water. And slow moving water too. Try ahurricane in New Orleans. and be there when the levies fail. Sympathy for Thailand? No, not really.
Imagine being in New Orleans when the hurricane hit and only packs of wild dogs (niggers) running around looting and raping. At least the Thais pretty much take care of each other. By the wya, Where the f*** are the Aussies with help? Actually DG could rent out his row boat to help move people around. He does own a water taxi, right?

Wow thailife that is quite rude and uncalled for man
Bim I think you cannot assume anything, even if, say, Suk or your favorite soi is dry, many workers wont be able to get to the hotels, clearning, markets, etc etc. This is really not a time to travel, we can cancel up until the last day before the flight in a hope that a miracle will happen, but Sat 6PM is the high tide and that will get into Suk/Silom and all those places downtown. Unavoidable, no need listen to the experts, look around and think... do you really want to be in a silom island, with water around you, and no one to clean and do your breakfast...?

the one thing I have to keep telling myself is that this is not "water" but a toxic soup with who knows what brewing in it for the last month,
Do you really want to be walking around in it, even ankle deep ?

I don't want to walk in water.. but even if the soi I am staying in Suk will be dry, and I can get to the hotel dry, I wont want to be staying on an island, with water and misery around, and all the many people serving the hotel and the area away as their own homes out of bangkok got flooded or they cannot get to work because of floods. This makes no sense to go there now... unless as I wrote a week from now all water goes down and they start to dry and rebuild... we shall see.

Bangkok flood worsened
================
The Nation October 27, 2011 11:59 am
As of Thursday's morning, the floodwater has kept on rising in northern and western Bangkok. On Vibhavadi-Rangsit Highway, the inundation has spreaded to Wat Lak Si, located about 200 meters from the Don Muang Tollway ramp.
The water level is about 50 centimeters.
On Phaholyothin Road, the floodwater from Future Park Rangsit shopping mall to Don Mueang Airport continues to rise, shutting down traffic.
The overflowing water has started to inundate Bhumibol Hospital.
A section of earth dyke at Don Mueang Airport collapsed, prompting emergency pumping in order to safeguard the headquarters of Flood Relief Operations Centre.
In Thon Buri, workers still could not complete the repairs of dykes at two major canals, Masawat and Thawee Wattana, due to strong water flow.
The inundation at Wat Puranawas rose to 2.4 meters, prompting emergency evacuation of monks and flood victims residing at the shelter inside the temple.

Report from Bangkok Post dated 27 October 2011 :-
Froc advises people to leave Bangkok
=========================
The Flood Relief Operations Centre (Froc) has advised people in the capital to leave Bangkok for their own safety this long weekend, if they can, reports said.
The flood centre said Bangkokkians should take the opportunity during the special long holiday weekend to visit tourist destinations or to go and stay with relatives in flood-free provinces.
The suggestions came after a prediction that the floodwater from the North will peak in Bangkok soon, and be made worse by peak high tides from Oct 28-31.
Bangkok Governor Sukhumphand Baripatra on Thursday morning told people in Sai Mai in Bangkok to evacuate to safer ground as the water level in the area was rising.
Mr Sukhumphand yesterday advised people in Bang Plad and Don Mueang districts to move out of their homes to higher areas or to the temporary shelters prepared by the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration.
He also declared Wang Thong Lang and Lat Phrao districts special watch zones for flooding.

Entire Bangkok City told to brace
=====================
The Nation October 27, 2011 12:26 pm
FROC chief says every area of Bangkok will flood; If three key barriers hold up, damage to capital could be limited : PM
"Floods will hit every area of Bangkok but each area will see different levels of water," director of the Flood Relief Operations Centre (FROC) Pol General Pracha Promnok said yesterday.
Pracha, who is also the justice minister, urged Bangkok residents to adjust to the situation and accept what was going to happen.
He said about 400 million cubic metres of flood water are now in an area north of Bangkok and poised to flow in.
"Bangkok's water-drainage capacity is just 30 million cubic metres a day," he pointed out.
An informed source at the BMA said the flood-water level would range between 30 centimetres and 1.5 metres across 50 districts of Bangkok.
Flooding will last for a month: BMA source "The inundation will last for about one month," it added.
The information was almost identical with what Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra had said in her televised speech on Tuesday.
Yingluck said yesterday that concerned authorities would continue their efforts to protect inner Bangkok from flooding.
"We will maintain flood barriers at three key areas. If they remain well in place, not all areas of Bangkok will be affected," she said. When asked about the chances of these floodwalls crumbling, she said, it was "50 per cent".
Yingluck said all officials were doing their best and the private sector had also joined in.
Bangkok Governor MR Sukhumbhand Paribatra urged all sides to cooperate with each other to weather the flood crisis.
As of press time yesterday, many parts of the capital had already been submerged. In Don Muang district, flood water had forced the cancellation of all commercial flights from Don Mueang Airport since Tuesday. Also, portions of many key roads such as Vibhavadi Rangsit, Phaholyothin, Kamphaengphet, Songprapa, Veruvanaram, Sirin-dhorn, and Charansaniwongs were impassable to traffic. Charoen-krung Road in the heart of Bangkok is also flooded.
Several shops and department stores, including Central Plaza Pinklao, closed in the wake of inundation.
Thawi Watthana District Office director Prapat Thirapongtorn said due to the run-off water from the upper part of the country, the Mahasawas Canal would overflow and flood nearby areas today.
"I have already instructed and almost forced people living along the canal to evacuate," he said.
He said the raging flood was too serious to be controlled.
A source at the FROC said Pracha had already held video conferences with top officials of Kanchanaburi, Suphan Buri, Ratchaburi, Phetchaburi, Chon Buri and Nakhon Ratchasima to prepare evacuation centres for flood-hit Bangkok residents in the worst-case scenario of waters inundating the capital.
"FROC has planned to provide transfer services to those evacuation centres for flood victims. Flood-hit people can also travel to the evacuation centres on their own," the source said.
Army chief General Prayut Chan-ocha said people in Bangkok's Bang Phlat district had already been warned of the immense volume of run-off water heading their way.
"Boats will be ready to evacuate people. Those who are not willing to move out of their houses
will be told where to pick up food and water as we may not be able to deliver the food to all," he said.
