  1. Never. I no longer find it appealing and I can't stomach chillies. I know that there are many dishes that are not chilli-laden but I couldn't be bothered ferreting them out. I do like the look of that Chiang Mai restaurant though, might have to trek up there from "KTM" one day to try it.
  2. Most people with Narcissistic Personality Disorder are.
  3. Hoegaarden mate, like all the other Bangkok wannabe hi-sos 😉
  4. I don't follow. The soi was named as such long before whitey ever showed up.
  5. Hint: the typo in your first sentence changes the meaning somewhat.
  6. A lot of tourists don't want to pay bar prices, which is fair enough. They also like to buy cheap "travellers" from the Seven and then wander around the streets with the bottle in their hand like lo-sos 😉 PS. I used to do that when I was a backpacker. I was quite partial to the small cans of "Singha Draft". Of course, now that I'm older I frown upon such behaviour. Tsk tsk 😅
  7. I found out recently that Thais don't say "Rama". The word is actually พระราม which Google Translate pronounces as "Phraram". I guess the Hoi polloi would say "Palam". I also found out that Sukhumvit is pronounced with a W sound and not a V sound. I was quite flabbergasted to find this out. What other tricks with the transcription of Thai names are they playing on us?
  8. More fool you. But hey, continue to blame Thai Immigration and "BKB" (whatever that is) for your own failings.
  9. *Buakhao (บัวขาว) which means "white lotus".
  10. I'm reliably informed by a Patpong BG that he's chillaxing in his country estate near Udon Thani and not in the Police General Hospital at all 😉
  11. If you liked that you'll love their 'About Us' page... https://thainewsroom.com/thai-newsroom/
  12. A barber shop is not a hair salon, and vicey versa. Yes, I go out to get my hair cut. Just found a new place near the gay area on Silom that made me look fabulous darling, so I'll definitely be going back there again.
  13. They might not be quality journalists (whatever that means) but they probably know how to buy a pair of spectacles without getting ripped off 🤣🤣🤣
  14. No, it was totally ridiculous. Or should I say "Yeah nah, It Was Totally rediculous" 😂
  15. Why it that? Don't they have shopping malls, restaurants and Mercedes dealerships in Is Buriram? Oh, and gambling dens 😉
  16. Oh wow, the last time I was there was 2014 and the owner of the bar I was drinking in down on one of the sois behind the Crystal Palace refused to let me walk back up to the main road because of bandits. He was so insistent that it was dangerous to walk in that area that he took me up there on his own motorbike because all the 'win' had gone to bed already.
  17. No, if they are British they would have gone to the "Koh San Woad" 😂
  18. Shirley the OP's talking about a real motorbike and not a scooter?
