I've yet to go there but keep meaning to visit K Sauna & Massage, on 3rd road, behind Big C Extra on Pattaya Klang. Apparently they have jacuzzis.

I used the ’Split PDF’ tool on the linked website for dividing my flight ticket into two separate pages/files and also merging all the pages of my bank statement into one: https://www.ilovepdf.com/

Feel free to send a private message informing me of these establishments so I can also avoid them, for kebabs at least, because I’m still on the search and there doesn't seem to be much out there. Salad cream with a doner kebab is an arrestable offence! Haha.

Hi, I’m looking for a list of businesses selling western food products on Phuket, especially smaller places not the large Thai chains. Pattaya has a good number of shops and supermarkets catering to western expats so I’m assuming Phuket is similar, however I haven’t visited for well over ten years and have no idea what’s what these days. I’ll be travelling around the island so not limited to any one specific area. Thanks for any suggestions.

Hi, I’m trying to establish what’s available regarding western food shops on Koh Samui, Koh Phangan and Koh Tao. I'm interested in the more independent places, so not the obvious large chains like Tesco, Makro, Tops, etc. So far I’ve found MB Grocery, Bamboo Cafe & Shop, and Bangrak Minimart (Samui), La Bottega Food & Beverage, and Foodology (Koh Phangan), Pen Wholesale Supermarket, and Chaiwat Grocery Store (Koh Tao). Can anyone add to these places? I’m also interested in knowing what Phuket has to offer but I guess it makes more sense to start a separate topic for that. Many thanks for any suggestions.

I had a look on the Air China website but couldn't see any mention of free transit hotels. I wouldn't want to fly via China but would be interested in knowing of any flights with a stopover - and ideally a hotel - in the Middle East if there's anything you know of, especially if the price is similar to that of a direct flight, or less of course.

This isn't bad at all considering the price, at around B60 for a large can. Makes a very nice change from the Thai lagers.

These are the best local beers for the price you're paying, IMHO. Still a bit hard to find but worth looking for.

Hi, I'm hoping to get a list of all the places selling kitchen equipment for restaurants (possibly second hand as well as new). So far I've found Smile Equipment, Champ, KCS (Kitchen Centre Sales), and J&P Stainless. Many thanks for any suggestions.

On my Multiple Entry Tourist Visa it states ‘Visa must be used by 29 December 2024’ My question is what's the latest date I can (re)enter Thailand for my final entry on that visa, the 29th or the 28th? Many thanks

Hi, Hopefully someone can inform me: When a foreign national (British) moves from a Tourist Visa to a Non-Immigrant B Visa - working at a business they have a controlling share in - can it be done from within Thailand or does it have to be done outside of the country? The Ministry of Foreign Affairs website only states: ‘Nationals of certain countries are required to apply for a visa only at the Royal Thai Embassy or Royal Thai Consulate-General in their home/residence country or at the designated Royal Thai Embassy or Royal Thai Consulate-General. ’ Also, are things any different when moving from Visa Exempt to a Non-Immigrant B Visa? Many thanks.

There was no report made to the police, only an online form completed for the passport office and subsequent phone call, however I could try uploading their email to me acknowledging the lost/cancelled passport. Thanks for the suggestion Tim.

So do you think I should simply upload a blank page from the new passport, as skipping this step of the application isn't possible?

Hi, I’ve reached the ‘Supporting Document’ stage of the online E-Visa process and not sure what to do regarding ‘Applicant is required to upload passport pages which contain all travel records for the past 1 year.’ My issue is that I lost my previous passport. I now have a nice new passport, however there’s not a single immigration stamp inside as it’s never been used, so I don’t have anything to upload. I’ve emailed the Thai embassy (London) and will also try phoning them but I'm not too sure it'll get me anywhere. Any suggestions very much appreciated.

Give alcohol free beer a try. Plenty to chose from in the U.K. theses days. From what I've tried - admittedly limited - the wine's and spirits don't seem quite right but the beers mostly taste much like the 'real' thing. People laugh when I tell them it's the taste as much as the effects I miss if I'm not drinking alcohol, but I really do enjoy the taste, along with the association of drinking when socialising, watching sport, etc, so I find alcohol free beer a good compromise. I drink alcohol regularly, and have no plans to stop, but there's times when I'll substitute my usual beer with an alcohol free alternative, mainly for health reasons. Good luck.
