To the OP, why would you think Christmas lunch or dinner would be available in Pattaya between 17-19 December?

 

Where would this be available anywhere in the World on these days?

 

 

Pre-madness loads of places in the UK or Ireland would have Xmas dinner offerings almost from the start of Dec for work's parties etc.

The better ones would need to be booked or no chance

Spotless is not too bad & nor is Caliphate.

For what it's worth the Dutch government put the whole world on the orange list yesterday,that means only absolutely necessary travel.So it's almost impossible to get insurance etc etc.

You won't get flight insurance but you usually buy health insurance from an insurer in the country that you are flying to

I found this on the internet dated today 16th Dec 2020.....

 

"In addition, BA will not operate to Sydney or Bangkok until the beginning of the winter 2020/21 season on 30 October next year. It will also suspend flights from Gatwick to Costa Rica’s capital San Jose for the summer from 17 April 2021.

 

A BA spokesperson said: “We are sorry that, like other airlines, due to the current Coronavirus pandemic and global travel restrictions we are operating a reduced and dynamic schedule.

 

“We will be in touch with any customers whose flights are affected and advise customers to check ba.com for the latest flight information.”

 

So, that just leaves Eva at the moment.

Van Gogh said orange was the colour of madness & he was a bit of an expert in both fields I would say.

I dare anyone who's been around the sois of Pratamnak & seen the horror shows that are the many nordic condo/hotels to disagree with me, they are a proper eyesore & can only devalue the places as I'd want a big discount to stay there.

It's not a colour that most would be drawn to by choice.

Why the alcohol ban if they already know the results?

Retox, Robin Hood, Route 66, Cheap Charles....Lots of places...

Anything a bit more hotel buffet style with great views?

There are about 15 of us with mostly children so would over impose on those places & other customers

Can anyone recommend places that are offering decent Christmas lunch on the 25th that are child friendly in town?

A few are not open that were last year

I live outside of town a bit & there are a lot of small farms or houses with some crops & every single night except for when it rains heavy they have fires lite.

They seem to wait until the sun has settled then off they go.

The police do nothing, city hall do nothing.

I know a teacher at the local Thai school & one of their neighbours is often burning even during the day, she told me they asked him to stop & reported him so he stopped for a while & then started back up.

I'm out near Nong Nooch & we're into the 3 day/night of electo dance music so loud that during the bassier parts of songs my windows rattle.

I'm about 1km away as the crow flies.

Sound checks started at 11am & last nights noise finished around 1am.

It seems lounder each night.

I have seen no ads or posters for it, no one & I mean no one can listen this for any period of time & not be taking some kind of pharmaceuticals.

I've got a similar card from SCB, 200 Baht a year. I've tried using it as a debit card to pay for stuff online, but it's never worked. No idea why, as my account usually has a couple of hundred thousand Baht in it.

Something's wrong there.

DM me you account number, sort code, full name & DOB then I'll try to get that fixed up for you fella ????

He was obviously very good in his previous life so maybe has no qualms about the more unfortunate fellow country folk who were not as good as him in their previous lives.

Keep feeding those rabid soi dogs peeps.

We must bow down to these young multi-millionaires & listen to their wisdom

I'm after one of those heavy massage beds with the hole for your face & I'm hoping that there maybe somewhere that I can buy a decent quality 2nd hand one seeing as so many places have closed down.

Does anyone know where I might around town?

It was his chef that was the problem, not the supplier.

If you can't get the supply right then it doesn't matter who's in the kitchen, you can't make a silk purse out of a cow's <deleted>.

The people have spoken. Beefeater usually full, Patricks usually half empty. Ate in Patricks a few months ago. Shocking meal. Called Patrick over and asked him to try it. He agreed with me and knocked it off the bill. Won't be eating there again.

I would have thought that a response like that from the boss would a good reason to go back.

I know he changed supplier not soon after the lockdown was released.

2nd hand shop on the Suk going south had about 6 bikes for sale a few days ago when I was having a sniff about.

It's almost exactly across the road from Makro.

Your head gets turned by some the deals in there until you remember that you don't need said items or have anywhere to store them until the time comes when you might need them

I read on here that someone was stopped from buying a certain brand of fish sauce at Makro after 2pm because it has trace amounts of alcohol in it.

I always liked the way some Russians would take their bottle of beer from the 7 fridge then plonk then exact amount owed on the counter & walk out the door.

It's maybe why they closed off the fridges in some stores.
