    Socks, are well known as a hiding place and I suggest an alternative is found, particularly where such sums are involved.

    These people are peeping toms/voyears... they watch tourists on the beach and under piers too. I see the article seems to smoothly shift the blame onto tourists too, when of course that is unlikely to be the case at the railway station. I am more concerned by the mess the roadworks are making near there at the Railway Line Bypass Rd, and Soi SIam CC junction.

    Yes, much needed as we have finished high season, and enter the low season, and places are empty!

    Perhaps I need to stop living in the distant past. 😄

    I remember picking up a monk who appeared to be thumbing for a ride once in the north. Put him in the rear bench seat of the truck. He was a right PIA, wouldn't stop talking and couldn't get rid of him! Kept changing his destination. Never again.

    Have they really halted the thieving by simply arresting the guy stripping down/fencing the bikes? The people doing the thieving will need more beer and Yabba soon and be out on the prowl again.

    The Base and The Edge pre date this particular complex. The prior beer bars (one a live music venue) were small ventures making much less noise.... Planning permission was given I suppose, too late now. Perhaps these overpriced little boxes in the sky should have better sound insulation.

    Why? We all probably know which one is meant, but I wonder what the incentive is to be secretive. So many people are saying it is the residents own fault for living in that area, but this complex has only been there for under a year.... and much was said about how it had AC and would be sound proofed. That said, I used the adjacent hotel, which has been there many many years prior, and was not disturbed. I think I got to bed before 4am.

    Residence Garden. Nova Park?

    I wonder if the girls have turned to AI to write their eloquent, grammatically perfect, begging letters yet!

    Don't be silly, a rare enough event as to be in the news. I rode down Buakhao yesterday and did not see a single foreign tourist being chased by a knife wielding local. A few being watched over by girls in short skirts operating ATM machines, yes!

    Small Kodak shop on soi Buakhao, Just past Cheap Charlies, heading towards Lengkhee. https://maps.app.goo.gl/fsUwRzC5i4moWi5WA

    Very optimistic request.

    Keep a bucket of iced water next to the life ring at the beach!

    I don't expect there are many of those very capable lifting and towing vehicles here in Pattaya... putting a clamp on the wheel is about the limit of their abilities.
  18. jacko45k
    It has been an issue for 20 years...... nothing much changes, but reality is the shop owner does not own the street in front of their premises either, so many think they do.
  19. jacko45k
    So the doors were wide open to an empty lift shaft?
  20. jacko45k
    Not always... well not always for us older guys. I agree in Thailand far less likely... often if you get a slapping here, it was deserved!
  21. jacko45k
    Not in the case of a receding hairline!
  22. jacko45k
    Well that is 2 different functions, handled on different floors, so could be correct. If renewing 2 licenses, car and motorcycle for one person, 2 is not needed, and irritating that immigration mislead you, and waste your money that way.
  23. jacko45k
    Now now, no baiting!

    It might be less of a drama queen comment if you said it is believed blacks are mostly foreign and require the correct permission of stay and a passport, and it is within the rights of the police to ask that these be shown to them. If they run away, it is likely they do not.

    They prefer the place where they get a kick-back.
