A spirit house or floral arrangement maybe?

It is the only thing I can think of with such a wide range of appeal, all of Europe, Middle East, even Asia.... the Olympics does not have the same sporting appeal or link to the bar scene. I think a special licensing schedule for the period of the World Cup, in all the entertainment centres, would be/ have been a great solution. Perhaps the Rugby World Cup as it brings the antipodeans into the mix. But more generally, I don't think 4am closing is a great or needed idea... particularly in the Thai nightlife scene with the propensity to drink and drive.

And believe it or not, they got tourists too. They could get more if airfares were cheaper.

Once less than the refinery?

So we can have 4am closing for a month once every 4 years? Of course 4am would not work so well next time in the Americas.

What nonsense......

I expect the two Jokers will be left in the pack!

Oh I doubt that...of the day, just maybe, just.

You seriously try to compare a cab from a rank at LHR (In rip-off Britain)... to one that has been sitting in front of the Central Festival Mall? There are ranks in Central London where you take a cab and they use the meter. A list of fixed fares would be fair.... 2-300 baht for a ride of a Km or 2 would be okay if one had shopping to carry. I have used taxis home from near Walking St, 12 km, 500 baht with tip, (and some interfering hustler on commission) under 200 by Bolt.

Get him off the road before he does it again!

Yes, within the 45 days. Perhaps a throwaway ticket?

That Permission of Stay is no longer valid once you leave the country unless you have a re-entry permit. Won't you just come back in Visa Exempt 25th Dec and get a new 45 day Permission.... which you can convert to Non-Imm-O entry, and then onto the 1 year marriage extension?

Comes with an iron will perhaps?

He said nightspots, not nightclubs. Most GGBs, beer bars and some of the nightclubs in Pattaya most certainly allow you to run a tab. Can't speak for Thai orientated places.

I believe Thailand is similar to what I was told when driving petrified in Riyadh and asked 'Who has right of way',, and was told 'You do, always'

There was a pedestrian crossing from the other side too...but I could not see lights on the video.....other vehicles had stopped for some reason. The OP VIDEO link above does not work for me.

I certainly still see a lot of vehicles with plates illegible due to fading.

Yeah... if he was in a wheelchair he probably couldn't get in.

Another one who edits quotes!

Nah, I am expecting another pandemic scenario sooner than that.

Yes.... minus the withholding tax of course.

It is a pedestrian crossing with lights.

Well the road where this happened is actually a dual carriageway... I also see there are barriers to prevent pedestrians crossing elsewhere... for their safety which is ironic.

Don't forget many that will look completely the wrong way!
