@Seppius mentioned earlier that they're running the service every 10 minutes in each direction, I guess it must be really busy right now. Perhaps they're having to scrape the bottom of the barrel to get drivers to meet the demand? I'll be needing to visit Pattaya in a few weeks, maybe I'll take the train instead π

I'm a little bit concerned because it involved one of the Bangkok-Paataya buses. I've done that trip quite a few times and the drivers have always been very competent, at least they seemed that way. no recklessness like the peanut gallery assume of all Thai bus drivers. I guess I'll be wearing my seatbelt later this month when I head to Patts π

Of course they can be counted by machine, the banks just don't want the expense of maintaining the hardware. -

Well nobody is going to knock on your door and give you regular updates so it behooves you to seek out that information yourself so you don't find yourself in a pickle. This website is the primary source of information for expats and has a wealth of information. More fool you if you ignore it. -

There have been quite a few threads on the subject of denied or near-denied entry in recent months, enough to get the sense that certain immigration officers are reverting to their pre-Covid "war on visa runners". The information's all there, all you have to do is fire up the forum and read it. -

I not get idea, him say he over 50 laow π https://aseannow.com/topic/1318825-advise-needed-visarun-got-rejected-on-airport/?do=findComment&comment=18668261 Struggling to want to help this guy, he's been a BM since 2010 but has clearly not invested any time keeping up with changes even though he seemingly decided long ago to 'push the envelope' viz back-to-back stays on tourist entries. It only takes a few minutes a day to scan this forum for the latest news, now fool the OP for ignoring the basic purpose of this site. /rant -

While Living in Thailand, how do you "Make Merit"?
Lemsta69 replied to GammaGlobulin's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Buddhism is a scam and you must have a very weak mind if you fall for it. But hey, keep scouring the one-horse towns of Thailand trying to find enlightenment baby bird π€£π€£π€£ -
Only if you're on a tight budget. Otherwise I think it's pretty clear what the OP wants, ie. a nice free-standing house that's been converted to a proper restaurant. Went to one in Chiang Mai many moons ago, it was quite nice but I forgot the name already.

It IS the accepted way and will be for quite some time to come. Accept it and move on with your life instead of boring us with the sermons ever time someone mentions an agent. -

Under-seasoned western food in Thailand
Lemsta69 replied to Everyman's topic in Western Food in Thailand
So what do you eat when you go out, Thai food? I can't stomach chili anymore, not even a tiny bit, so a fair amount of Thai food is off the menu for me. Also when I walk past restaurants and look at what Thai people are eating it doesn't appeal to me, even if I was able/could be bothered to get them to make it mai phet. I really want to overcome this near-phobia of Thai food, so if you can give me a few suggestions for restaurants and dishes in Bangkok that serve knock-your-socks-off Thai food that blows mediocre Western food out of the water, that would be great. I think you've mentioned before that you travel to Bangkok fairly regularly By restaurant I mean a nice place to sit down and get a cold beer or a glass of wine with one's meal, not some hole in the wall pad grapao joint. The only places I've been to so far are the likes of Mango Tree off of Suriyawong and Coco Chao Phraya on Phra Athit but I came away from them as underwhelmed as I have from the lower-budget Western joints that I've been to (too many to list). Can't afford the likes of Cocotte and all those other schmany places that @richard_smith237 goes to π€£ -
