Pattaya Metamorphosing like a Butterfly.... four stages Egg . Larva , Pupa and finally a beautiful butterfly .
Pattaya stage one (the Egg)_ ... a sleepy quaint fishing village
Stage Two ..( Larva) ... the Yankees arrive and turned into a rustic city of sin
stage Three (Pupa ) Now ! the city tries to modernise and struggles against the times.
Stage Four ( Beautiful Butterfly).. Pattaya become a international renowned family beach resort.(winning the best place to visit for 25 yrs in a row)
whoop stage four never happens due to the Pupas being harvested by some poor guy/girl from Isaan and deep fried and sold from a cart.... The Thai equivalent the killing the golden goose lol

Hi All.
I am thinking of taking up a new hobby ,,,, Para-motoring and need too learn the basics and become efficient before taking the plunge and buy rig and flying into the sunset .
There's place at Sri racha called Para motor school Thailand :- https://www.paramotorthailand.com has anyone had any dealings with them and would you personally recommend their teaching and safely record/skills etc ????
Or can any one recommend another para-motor school approx 200km from the Pattaya area.
Mods if you think there is a better forum for this post please move ????

Their was a electricity unit price increase a few months ago .This is more likely to be the reason for th higher bills ....My Leccy bill went up by around 650Baht (avg) with the increases ...can't really complain not had many increases over the last 11yrs since I arrived.

The Alti and Lao Mountain are good - as for which bean that is down to personal taste as which type of bean (I prefer a mild bean for my V60 drip with my Handground set to #2)
So which bean type do you actually order?? ..I prefer a milder blend too

There are many places to order coffee from here in Thailand and do not forget Laos - most are better than Boncafe and the food market offerings - examples :

I use the same Patrol station all the time for both my Pick-up and Motorbikes .I usually drop a 5 or 10 baht tip .It didn't take long to train the Gas monkeys a new trick.
Every time I now pull in there's a mad frenzied arm waving session of all of the attendants.
I know some of you " Moaning Minnie's" will be saying you shouldn't "Tip" But it's a personal choice and it works for me ????

Not sure if you know Conures or not. I got one when I got here and sweetest friendliest bird I ever had, but it wanted to be out and on my shoulder all the time. When it wasnt was screeching full tilt all the time. I ended up selling it to a farang guy and his wife. After they picked the bird up my gf said go in soup sure 5555
Yeah ! Conures are famous for being vocal ......but not quite sure how they taste in a Tom yum soup 5555 .

Perhaps I should have made myself clearer. He is attending a training school for a major petrochemical organisation and living on site, he gets the chance to come home occasionally, so not a morning and evening transportation situation. I was guessing that vans would head that way to and from Ban Peh but are they organised tour vans?
Surely if the company he is training with has staff transport he will eligible to use the said vehicles on a ad hoc basis .
-
If he is working for one of the larger companies there's a good chance they have there own transport running daily at times to fit in with there shift patterns ....there's umpteen factory buses passing through and stopping at Bang Saray picking up works at different time of the day 24/7 and going onto Rayong's industrial areas ...worth checking that out too ..

For my flying rat problem I bought a cheap airsoft pistol (CO2) that fires small plastic pellets ...not powerful enough to kill them.. but it sure did get their attention and they soon learnt not to stay around .
