  1. Some areas in Thailand are flooding and of course that impacts rice production negatively.
  2. I am very concerned when I read recent commentary from these deniers... as if the time of the pandemic was just a long bad dream.. the images coming out of the hospitals, the statistics and numbers, mass burials in various countries..... all forgotten and denied now. If we failed to learn anything from it, we will suffer more from the next one.
  3. People who live here don't use tourist visas or visa exempt entries so that can be understood. It was all different but a year or so back, with the temporary post Covid measures too. My computer doesn't have a Sterling (£).....key either.. I just copied yours.
  4. Looks familiar.... it's a 'get out of my way' van one often sees in the rear view mirror!
  5. Not much on TV there, so sat on a balcony with a cup of tea......... or other beverage.
  6. Yeah, they shut the branch in Big-CX and removed the convenient ATMs at my nearby gas station...... the small branch near Numchai, which is convenient en-route, doesn't open until quite late....
  7. Perhaps the way you put it, but sounds extremally rude.
  8. Overly negative... they do exist..... one has to be prepared for rules though.
  9. I don't see the baht bus mafia having much of a concern with this tourist bus..... unlike the transport buses they tried to introduce many years ago. Hardly seems a good decision with current state of Pattaya's roads and how they get on holidays.
  10. Yes you can..... presuming you mean the confirmation letter and not the monthly income verification. Just seems to be a regular teller function in the Bangkok Bank branches I have used.

    One of my fridges gets hot to the touch on the sides...especially if some stuff has recently been put in there, like a case of beer. Try and maximize space around the sides and rear as BritManToo suggests.

    Might be a bit noisy for anyone wanting to get to sleep.... but good food and sit near the window for the best show in town.
  13. True for any nationality... do the Chinese have a higher proportion of undesirables than say UK or Germany?
  14. And soi 15 between 2nd and Buakhao.......never forget that major effort, or lack of.
  15. jacko45k replied to Pdavies99's topic in Pattaya
    Yes a bit away from things there. Use Google Maps to get an idea of the area, you would have been better off more central or Buakhao area.
  16. I thought he was retiring.... he should be more concerned about his own waterworks.
  17. Just read a post saying no, that was not what happened for him.
  18. Seems to be a long way to go.....nowhere closer? Or perhaps other reasons.
  19. Hurry up.... my electric bill is due next week and with the current hot spell and my Mrs recent run of absent minded behaviour with lights and fans, I need a break!
  20. Are they legally married in the country they currently reside?
  21. Seconded, always use that place. And a liberal approach to companions. Couple of nice pools if one needs to relax for an hour or so between adventures. The old locations of the soi 13s and soi 7/8 are dead.
