On Soi Six, about noon today, a couple bars had big barrels of water outside. Ready to go.

My guess is solo travelers will sit alone, but family members can sit together.

Don't throw out your old bankbook. If your old bankbook was full and you were issued a new one, remember to take the old bankbook, so immigration can check the previous 12 months.

 I went in the last week of May and it took a total of 12 minutes (over 2 days) to do my Extension, Multi Re-entry permit and 90 Day report.

Multi re-entry? I wish I had your optimism.

Generally good advice for Soi 6.

There are several reasons for this, said Damrongkiat Phinitkarn, head of the entertainment association in the city. 

I would guess that some bars will open, even if the Entertainment Association members, decide to remain closed.

Does this Association represent bars primarily on Walking Street? 

Is there a refill on your prescription, or maybe your doctor would issue a refill? I have had the pharmacy, ask my insurance company to give me an early refill due to travel, usually with approval granted. If it's only an insurance issue, you could pay for the drugs.

That would certainly make things easier. Could I just give them access to my Google Timeline?

Wouldn't it be easier to put ankle monitors on all foreigners ?

What's this guy been smoking? Is it available locally?

I bought some Indian rupees at the TT both on second road. East side of the street, maybe across from Soi 13? Was sent there by a different TT booth. Could even buy small denominations. This is some kind a of a main office. The exchange rate seemed good.

Thanks everyone for the info. I'll get in just under the wire.

The past couple years I've been using the income method. This year I decided to change to the 800,000 baht in the bank method. I'll have three months seasoning just in time to renew my extension but would like to get it done a few days early. Since this is my first extension using the baht in the bank method, is two months seasoning all that I need?

Pattaya has so much to offer but it seems that many just waste their, day sitting in front of a cold glass of milk. Sad.

Hmm. Chang now has one beer to market, instead of four. Maybe they have plans to distribute (or even brew) other ASEAN beers.

Let's not forget that we may be on the brink of a major technological change in transportation. Driverless Google/Uber vehicles may be plying the streets of Pattaya within 10 or 15 years. I would hate to see money spent of expensive infrastructure that would be outdated before it is completed.

Theoretically, most species of mosquitos and other flying insect can't fly above the 7th floor. However, most buildings that tall have elevators (lifts). These flying insects can make their way into the lift and fly out when the door opens on the 10th floor, etc.

Even if they could figure this out, they are not big enough to push the buttons in the lift. ☺

Break the egg into a microwave safe bowl. Stir it up or at least puncture the yolk or it could explode. Microwave for 45 seconds. If it is not done, microwave another 10 -15 seconds. If the egg sticks, you should oil the bowl.

If I can find an easy, cheap, way to get to Amazone from Pattaya, on public transport, I might buy an annual pass. The water park could be fun, some exercise, and a nice place to have a beer.

I imagine there are lockers to store your phone, a towel, etc. Does anyone know if locker rental included with the annual pass, or is there an additional charge?

There are call to prayer Android and iphone apps, so i would like to think that soon, the loud speakers will not be necessary.

I wonder where this happened, and what time of night. Walking distance from Walking Street, I don't know of any alleys that I would think of as dangerous. Maybe I need to be a little more careful.

In February they accepted my 4 month old US letter, but told me that next year, the limit would be 90 days
