  1. What nonsense... you think a couple in their 30 s with small children are interested in that, or a guy in his 50s wants to listen to rap, hip-hop or whatever the latest no-talent, so called racket that is being pumped out at 3am.... you have no idea.
  2. The hand holding onto the phone gets really cold!
  3. I cannot read Thai..... nor do I see the relevance to the topic of Covid infections. If you want to see fails. look at how many died of Covid in say the USA! Highest total world wide.
  4. And the fact you have not sought out such reviews or bothered to read them means you are trying to share your ignorance? https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/vaccines/vaccine-benefits.html
  5. And not every tourist is a 22 year old from the West, The majority are Malaysians, followed by Indians and Russians... Anyhow, not sure why we need a rule change, the 2am closing time is mostly ignored anyhow.
  6. Then I suggest you do not understand the make-up of tourists.....I bet the domestic travelers, ie those from say Bangkok visiting Pattaya contain a high young proportion that might want to party until late... but break down tourists, most come from Malaysia and India ... a good percentage older and getting away from cold weather, happy to sit on a beach all day and out for meal at night. The Pattaya crowd right now are older fat men, it is bad enough seeing them dancing in The Banboo Bar, heaven forbid in Bling at 4am!
  7. Who are you talking to particularly? With out quoting it appears to be the OP, and perhaps Mr Newton, and there certainly is no reason for that.
  8. People from other Countries seem to have forgotten what an absolute mess they made of handling Covid... UK alone put many elderly people in their graves prematurely with nothing better than complete incompetence. I think Thailand did pretty well too.
  9. Perhaps people come to Thailand for something different..... When I was young the UK nightlife was limited to 2am... and the public bars to 11pm... The Thai youth seem to like later... I just fear the likely increase in alcohol related accidents.
  10. No no, the other way!
  11. They did try stopping baht busses going one way for a spell,, didn't last. To be honest I am surprised we do not get more maiming incidents on this road... I have been very close to being hit by vehicles quite a few times... drivers get impatient. Delivery trucks stop wherever, ignorant people stop in front of a 7-11 to get some cigarettes...
  12. But what you would be doing on Hwy 36 confuses me... just go straight down Sukhumvit.
  13. They have never really been successful when it comes to controlling crowds at these events...... I recall being at the Countdown one NYE and I was amazed dozens if people didn't end up in the sea and drown... there were fights and all sorts of problems caused by excessive numbers trying to get down WS to the Bali Hai area......
  14. I thought it was more to do with a dispute they had with their partner and the ensuing lack of investment into future fields and resources.
  15. The airline would go bankrupt if it offered free booze to that lot. I did Biz Class on their A350 which was OK, but the flight on to Manchester was bad!
  16. Try getting refunds on flight tickets... with any of them.
  17. The loss of engines would mean they were at the mercy of the waves rather than being able to head into them.
  18. Or a night in the cells with a few local rogues and odd-balls and a similar bill in the morning!
  19. It can be less reliable as one gets older, and putting it to the test may not work out.
  20. And yet yesterday I was reading reports that all of the sailors had been recovered and were well.
  21. I thought so at first too, but now I feel cold I am not too keen... and got me some aches and pains that weren't there before.....
  22. Get a mouth full of water and breathe it in and he would be in trouble....
