I've just got TOT wireless put on at home but don't have a pc to access it there. I'm trying to connect to the net via my iphone 4 but am having no joy. Any ideas? Should i speak to TOT next? I fear the language barrier in these types of situations will add hours of pain haha.

Last night they were giving cars restricted access to Thapae Road around 6pm, and the road will be completely closed down once parade time is nearing. As suggested by WTK best to park in a nearby Soi/Road if you're driving. Only a few minutes walk away.

3 parades: 9, 10, 11. 9, lanterns mostly. 10, small krathongs. 11, big krathongs. starts around 7? from Thapae towards the river. third one always biggest / most colourful.

Any recommendations for the best spot to watch the parade with kids on the 11 ?

Plenty of room to move last night. Maybe bring some chairs and grab a spot on Thapae Road about 50/100 metres from the gate?

Great start to the festivities last night. Looking forward to the next few days.

Thank you all for the detailed information :jap: .

It is not only Loi Kroh and Spicy, Reggae et al that is under pressure. The Night Bizarre is also under significant strain at the moment. If you have knowledge of the local area, and it's property owners, you might be able to join the dots and come up with a name. A post on the second page of this thread alluded to some of the motivation behind these actions.

I could tell you the truth of it, but I would probably not be believed, so I'm not even going to try.

Haha sounds like something i was going to post in the Chang beer thread .

Sorry to hear about your misfortune. There's been a bike stealing racket happening down on Chang Klan this week. I'm sure they've moved on but it's a timely reminder to remain vigilant.

I rode down Loi Kroh at about 8pm? and they were already on the scene in numbers, so the end result hardly sounds surprising. A shame what happened to Marco's crew but T.I.T. My Spicy visits are in ever dwindling numbers but i have noticed since the move that they are copping a lot of attention, as is Lucky. Perhaps the Police have moved on from this venture. It all seems in line with other opinions that post midnight fun is being minimalised. Adapt and survive people.

Report from a mate that there was only a handful of people in there two nights ago. Looks like they'll need to do pull something special out if they want to relive the glory days.

Hello All. Am just bumping this topic as i'm about to start investigations in to completing a TEFL course in Chiang Mai. I see that SEE is recommended, Any other suggestions/help/advice available would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

A Thai mate has already checked it out. He reports that a small beer is 150 baht! I hope that there's been some miscommunication there!

Everyone has their own favorite. For me "Street pizza" kalare night bazaar works well with their home-made style. Go check it out!

They open from 6pm til 11pm. (serving without utensil).

Where exactly is this located? Inside / outside? I'm nearby Kalare most nights and have never spotted it.

Great thread!

Cheers IanF & limegreenp. Our group of 6 was half male half female, and 4 different nationalities. We had a lot of fun which is all that counts in my books.

The last 4 daytimes or so have definitely been hotter imo.

It's not inside Star 6, more off to the side in the entrance. The rooms are big and brand new. Normal bar prices. I guess compared to the countless horror stories you here about people dropping 5,000 plus in these places I'd consider it cheap.

Double post.

Disclaimer: I've met the owner twice. Ok people I think I've found what we've all been looking for! Last night while having a casual glass with some friends in the Loi Kroh boxing stadium I discovered that the owner of the bar has just opened two (brand) new karaoke rooms across the soi at the entrance of Star 6. I think we were the first ever customers and there was some kinks in the system as to be expected. The price was 250 for the first hour and then 200 for each hour after that. The English language songs are limited but we managed to fill out 2 rambuctious hours. And now for the kicker: no hostesses, no hidden fees apart from the normal bar price drink charges. So in summary, a normal non exorbitant karaoke place!

Well I feel for you Mr Fall as you must be the master of the media blackout not to be up with these results.

Either way, my liver seems to be approvIng of this fixture .

but it amazes me how much info for an event comes up after its happend

tit .. i guess .. but its a shame more people didnt know about it until it was over

Agreed d2. So much good stuff happening around the place. Even with the keen eyes of TV I'm usually finding out about stuff in the final days.

I think it's 87.5? that the GF has programmed in.

Ya know i've got a gf the place is more trouble then it's worth. Best left to the single men methinks.

Unbelievable. LOS continues to Amaze.
