Central/Robinson's Department Stores have all the major Thai brands in men's shirts. In BKK, go to the old Tokyu Department Store adjacent to MBK for better deals on closeouts from said brands. 3rd floor.

I had enough of slob roomates in my 20s and determined to live alone after that. Never married either. Had a few regular girlfriends here and there but they also had their own places. I've been able to avoid serious drama in my life and have traveled the world solo. I have friends in Thailand I meet for dinners to get in the necessary social interaction but I consider myself a loner at heart and wouldn't have it any other way.

Doin' IT on The Rooftops of a Penthouse in Kowloon...
LALes replied to GammaGlobulin's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Met a Filipina nurse in the elevator of Chungking Mansions back in 2000. We carried on a torrid affair on and off for two years, whenever I would come thru HK on my way to or from BKK. Although the handover was in 1997, HK retained a lot of its vibrancy for a few years. By 2001, though, the bloom was definitely off the rose. -

What Big Joke really says is "The joke's on you!" -
The master plan is to widen the whole stretch of jomtien beach. The sand dredging boat is still out in the bay bringing in more sand.

Speaking of enjoying your low season while you can, 120,000 Chinese expected to descend on our shores on Monday, the first day of visa exempt. Batten down the hatches@ -
Blockbuster movie scares Chinese tourists away from Thailand
LALes replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Ignorant Chinese tourists? Declining Chinese economy? Overblown movie hysteria? Whatever the reason, I, for one, am glad to have a low season again. Better enjoy it while you can. High season will be upon us in no time-Chinese or no Chinese. -
Dollar hit 38 last October. I'd like to see that again this October. First, we have to hit 37. Baby steps. i bought 80,000 baht at 38 last year. Should have bought 280,000.

Another great innovation brought to you by Crimestoppers, Inc. Let's face it, if there weren't so many assaults, thefts and fights in the darkened recesses of Beach Rd, there wouldn't be any need for the floodlights.

If this creep is guilty of what they say, I doubt he even has a collared shirt to wear to immigration. -

Vietnam Trip For 1 Month.......Recommendations?
LALes replied to Troy Tempest's topic in General Topics
The road from Danang to Hue over Hai Van Pass is spectacular. Best way to do it is to drive. Don't get into the tunnel that goes thru the mountain. Take the old pass road if you can. I did it in an old Russian Lada back in 1993, before the tunnel was built to accomodate heavy trucks and busses. I'm not sure what the rules are about cars now. -
Is Lazada a good place to buy an android phone (google pixel)
LALes replied to recom273's topic in Mobile Devices and Apps
Make sure its a reputable seller with lots of reviews. I got scammed last year on a Lazada phone purchase. Lost 10,000 baht. Lazada will NOT back you up if you get scammed on their website unless it says Laz Mall Shop. -

Deadly Altercation Erupts Among Friends Over 'Hitler' Drawing
LALes replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
Drinking session and sketches of Hitler. Yeah, that's gonna produce an uplifting outcome. -
The late, lamented Ronnie's NY Pizza on Soi Nana was great. Covid killed it. If you want a slice of real NY Pizza, go to SOHO on Soi 11, up near the top of the soi. Maybe even better than Ronnie's was. It's not cheap-120 baht for a slice of cheese-but its really good. Pala is OK, if you like the thick, bready, square slice.
