Be careful with that approach!

Looked like Bic-CX had taken delivery of UK stuff recently when I was in there Sunday.

Yes, it did seem they were very anxious to call it a suicide and move on.

Nearly a month, I thought the price reasonable too.

Not much, forward a few to the UK. Got some on my phone from the early 2000s even, look pretty much the same. They were actually quite spectacular, I hope in the future drones and lasers can be added. Five show on Friday night, a free spectacle. Pity it was rather cold, perhaps that is what got my bladder going. Not the deal the Mrs got on a load of cans of Heiny. Half the fun was seeing how the locals made a great time of it..... I never thought that new beach would become too small.

It is hard to persuade some folks that they are not in Kansas anymore......

Well he specified the Fireworks..... Central might keep you in there until they open at 11 next day.

One has to do the odd thing to please the Mrs, Personally I would not bother. Don't have a catheter, my bladder is what needs emptying, have been known to drink beer like a grown up. I live well out of town, so a nice hotel is a good solution. I didn't wait 4 hours, read my post again without moving your lips, but one does need to get seated quite well ahead of time. It is a good photo opportunity on the beach, I guess you were on the mall escalator going up, with your camera as usual?

Even getting away well after the event is tough. Traffic in Pattaya on Sunday afternoon was horrendous... 3rd Rd tailed back both ways...no police in sight,

Seems ironic to call others 'nosey parkers' while being a peeping Tom with a camera!

The traffic is easily avoided..... I book a room (do it early), drive in mid afternoon and park up and off after breakfast. Crowded, infuriating, bladder pains as toilets hard to find, then hard to find your spot after. It was cold too! Spectacular fireworks, must have killed thousands of fish. Locals loved it.... yobs on bikes looking for trouble after! Mostly sitting around waiting for the glory! Some guys I knew had booked deck chairs, prepaid, and were asked to turn up at 4pm to reserve. Hence wait for 4 hours for the shows. I say it every time, never again!

Thai owned places are doing it too. If anything they are more random on the arrangements. The 'groups' usually have consistent policies. Either use the in house facilities, or go elsewhere not on soi 6. Ridiculous, 10 LDs minimum (2000b ?), +barfine, plus her LT stipend comes to a fair old total. Irritating to learn too, when already a couple of LDs in.

Yes, I hear it is whatever they can get away with. I think I recall some young Oz vlogger mentioning this. Place is getting to be a rip off. Just use the in house facilities....

You drink Lady drinks? (The requirement as I heard it was that to barfine a lady off, one needs to have bought her a minimum of 10 LDs_) She will be okay after 10 thimblefuls of sugary water.

I don't know... it has been pretty cold lately.

Read 'precariously balanced on top as the driver was too lazy to tie the load down'.......

I seem to recall seeing it on Google Maps or mentioned on a Forum many many years ago, although I could not find the place itself.

What a bunch of tough guys eh? Rather infantile in reality. So much for the 'Land of Smiles' moniker!

Blond hair and blue eyes got somewhat diluted around 2015..... a new look ABBA features thobes and abayas and more drums.

So these people own the streets now?

You would take out the surprise element to the encounter?

Would such a law exist in your own country? Most Western nations have enacted laws pretty much doing the opposite.

Often a small plastic bag found blowing in the wind.

I am overall rather negative about the relaxing of visa exempt to India and China, especially when tied to the extended 60 days permission of stay. We seem to get a lot of problems from those sectors.

Incorrect...... as the topic suggests some violations here. If they catch this guy, he will be doing some grovelling apology in a police station.
