  1. They should stick to watching soaps on their phones.
  2. Only 10 Baht, sometimes 20 in Pattaya. Price has been the same since 2006, at least. "Imaginative" pricing for gullible tourist groups makes up the sum needed for a decent living for the drivers. For 40 Baht I'd expect a portion of chicken and rice to be included.
  3. Shopping at a minimart for hours? With the car's engine running, what could possibly go wrong?
  4. An English lady tourist was gored to death about 20 years ago but nothing has changed. https://www.theguardian.com/uk/2001/may/12/helencarter
  5. How did the thief know he had been reported to the police, so withdrawing his ad?
  6. He has had a deep and meaningless conversation with Comrade Smirnoff.
  7. In Pattaya they have started building 3 big Christmas trees outside Terminal 21. They will be ready for November, I reckon.
  8. I know; any interaction with Immigration or any Government "service" involves lots of paperwork.
  9. Sophon isn't allowed in my Naklua condo block. Suppliers have agreements in place seemingly based on geography. I have BTV and we have ad-free Eurosport and Golf Channel. Total Sports are showing the cricket WC. Only time I have seen Aussie Rules is on ABC.
  10. Interesting to see in smaller businesses whose picture adorns the wall ... and whose doesn't.
  11. Available in Pattaya and Jomtien. Pics from last week. Gravy, peas and free scraps also available.
  12. The beach is rammed today; mostly with Thai families. There seems to be more Russians around in Naklua; I expect a rise in Smirnoff and banana pancake prices.
  13. It could be argued that a market is being created for the personnel of companies coming to invest in the EEC. Those companies come from many countries including China, Japan, South Korea and Taiwan. Do current builds bring enough supply for forecast demand? (A rhetorical question that I don't think people on here can answer).
  14. I don't. I was referring to the online ads generated by algorithms for the personal touch.
  15. I never see such ads. You must have a search history which generates the ads to you.
