  1. Waaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyy better than living in my country. It's why I am living in the LOS. Sure there are problems here, but I wouldn't move back to the states for anything. Visiting home is fine, but this is where I am happiest.

    LOS? Laos? a country u meant? haha i live around an hour drive to Laos and i went there couple weeks ago i got laotain friends aswell they're lovely and humble u know lots of them in udon thani.

    LOS=Land of Smiles= Thailand

  2. Trattoria Toscana was at the beach side entrance of the soi and there were dentists, bbq wholesalers, guesthouses etc...Soi 0. The Bus station has always been on Pattaya Nua.

  3. I am looking for Borax, which can be used as a laundry detergent, cleaning product and insecticide etc...It is similar to Baking soda. Abroad it can be found in the detergent, cleaning products aisle in supermarkets but here I have yet to find it. Anyone know how to get some in the Pattaya/Bangkok area. Thank you.

  4. Good stuff! Maybe we can make a list and add more activities?

    1. Swimming/fishing/kayaking/sailing

    2. cooking classes

    3. shooting range/jet ski/ go karts

    4. golf/tennis/yoga

    5. people watch and drive home sober before 12 am(being around people who are drunk when sober is a detterent to drinking in itself)

  5. The one in your pic is about a 4mx8m skimmer pool. Depending on what type of tiles/light/pump/jets/pool deck the costs could vary from 150k-400k and should take about a month to build, depending on the weather and ease of access. If you want an overflow pool, expect to pay more and use more space for the overflow tank.

  6. I ate at Sun Dog Diner a week ago. The decor, setting and location are nice. The Milkshakes are good, as well as their unlimited refill of cokes in a jar. The Happy Days series running on a big flat screen makes it nostalgic. Now, the bad points! For someone who obviously spent a lot of money setting this place up, it is very disappointing to see that the food is in ridiculously small portions and not really good at all!! At 200 baht a Swiss cheeseburger(7-11 burgers are bigger and tastier and I hate 7-11 burgers) with about 6 french fries spread out(to make it look full) on a huge empty plate, who do you think you are fooling? It is aimed at Americans yet serves Kiddie menu portions. I can't remember what the price was for each item but it came to 1000 baht(+/-) for a plate of 5-6 teenie weemie bite size mozzarella sticks, the "hockey puck" size burger, chicken tenders, milkshake and a coke. I wouldn't mind if the food tasted good and the portions were normal, not Cambodia Polpot era portions. Absolutely shameful. I hope they quickly revise their menu, portions and chef. If not it will go under by Christmas! I would love to see it succeed because there is no place like it yet in Jomtien but the food should be the main reason for repeat customers not the icing on the cake. Until then get your burgers at hard rock, tequila reef, american rib company or anywhere but this place.

  7. It is always the people that have no experience that have the most to say! I have had over 10 dogs as personal pets and have trained over 30 for the Thai police and Navy, as well as Singaporean Army. Personally, I have had 2 Rotties but have trained all kinds of breeds from Alsatians to Turkish Anatolians. Rottweilers are lovely family oriented dogs with a drive. They are working dogs basically. If they are well socialised and given proper exercise, there are no problems. The problems arise, when the owners lock up their animals, mistreat them, entice aggression and use them as status symbol. Thus ignoring the bond and socialisation which must be established between owner(alpha) and the dog. I am not being an advocate for the Devil here but there is a lot of misinformation being fueled by ignorant people.

  8. There is a pet store that sells puppies in The Avenue on 2nd road opposite Soi Yamato. The store is on the ground floor to the left of Villa Supermarket.
