  1. Swampy is far from the worst place I have been through, more surly grouches are to be found elsewhere a plenty.
  2. Probably having a dammed good time and availing themselves of less public and more extreme entertainment than Monaco has on offer.
  3. I would not hold my breath. The reputation the beach has does not stem from the actions of a sole homeless guy!
  4. She hails from a time when one could perhaps amble down a road. The rest of this old lady's life will never be the same. I can see the idea of a pedestrian bridge but they are not popular. Usually too steep and for me many have steps that are too small. I find them daunting.

    One I was in the other day did not permit posting. Things changed about 7 days ago. Just the one Pattaya Community Forum now I guess.
  6. At least 2, second Rd in The Avenue, and Little Walk on Sukhumvit.

    Old guy syndrome, I looked through the thread and didn't spot where that was mentioned. At 100 baht each simply a rip off.

    Not much to discuss here since Pattaya was amalgamated into Thailand News section.
  9. Yes, similar to my experience. My Mrs told me of a tale back from the village where post was not being delivered.... they visited the postman at home and found him in the company of a great pile of packages and letters, and many empty Lao Khao bottles.
  10. Was it done without having to leave the country?

    Well appreciate the feedback......100 baht a stitch could well be too much, how many stitches? I would expect to just pay a few hundred and a nurse to take care of it.

    If one walks past the couple of clinics on Buakhao heading towards Tai, the Pattaya City Hospital there will likely take care of things.
  13. I had heard of this but thought it only for Thais.
  14. Those who can afford to move and live here permanently are likely financially sound. Those I know who come to live seem negative of their home countries these days.
  15. They don't allow any financial investors to do talks at the club I attend.
  16. Well not completely true as often one of the couple is Thai!
  17. Yes, even with an agent helping this is necessary. If not, and the starting point was a Facebook advert, I would be more wary,

    Go back there then!
  19. jacko45k replied to petermik's topic in Pattaya
    Why not the place that put them in. There are 2 little clinics on soi Buakhao...one opposite LK Metro, I think the other is towards Klang from there, other side.
  20. Your fault for requiring only serious replies......
  21. I feel the folks who sell drugs and thieving Katoeys, or jetski scammers or tarts who drug and rob customers etc etc are deserving of brutality too. Society is too lenient on those that refuse to be part of it!
  22. No need to go for a medical, they do the online test for you. They sometimes pick you up and drop you off. General avoidance of confusion which is possible with the language issues and older folks and non English speakers.. That wasn't really the original question asked though was it?.
  23. jacko45k replied to PoorSucker's topic in Pattaya
    What on earth are you expected to do with that silly thing?
  24. I used Mots, all OK. Tik Tok seemed prevalent at the licence place and had the cuter girls.
