    Everyday I see quite a few cars with the rear number plate removed obviously so that if they're involved in an accident they cannot be identified. They can hardly claim the plate has been stolen as most of them replace the screws hmm... very thoughtful thieves??

     

     

    nobody remove black color on plates but car wash. It happened to me on different cars, so get your facts right before speaking or you might look ridiculous.

     

     

  2. Best 25 thb coffee in the world !

    Especially for all the ridiculous people who drink anything else but espresso, then try to explain that they are coffee connoisseurs !

    If you want to know if a coffee is good, take am espresso without sugar, and taste it, otherwise saying that a coffee is good or not is just BS, same BS as most people who tell that this food or that other food is the best !

     

  3. Hallo ! Thinking that we should start using as less chemicals as possible in places where we spend long time, I am thinking to clean / moisturize leather seats with coconut oil.

    Have you tried it ? Or do you know any other chemical free natural car interior cleaner ? It's just like food, anything processed is dangerous, so people with a brain will go natural I think.

    Any idea ?

    I found them also slightly friendlier.

     

    At a German restaurant on Naklua road I often go to for breakfast, I get royal treatment after one of the ladies gave me back change as she thought that I gave her 1000 but I only gave her 500 which I off-course pointed out. She were extremely grateful because they pay out of own pocket if they screw it up. Now she know how I want my breakfast, no sausages but extra bacon instead and the Germans apparently don't uses ketchup on their fried eggs but I do and I don't have to ask for it anymore.

    Needless to say that I tip them nicely.

     

    This restaurant have been in business since 1979 and I would hate it, if it goes under during current crises but I think they will survive because there are often quite many people in there. Taverne is the name.

     

    Kiss restaurant ? yes staff are always good there. Food also.

    I had to think about that for a minute or two, as I recently spent 3 months in Pattaya. Sorry, JT, but I have to issue a resounding "NO." 

     

    With very, very few exceptions, restaurant and bar staff are the same disinterested, forgetful and unthankful bunch (and I was a sympathetic over- tipper), 7-11 clerks can't wait to ignore you after the transaction (in mostly empty 7s), Big C staff till can't give a rat's a$$ (no matter how polite I was), the barber I frequented thanked me for my over-payment  (but I never heard a word of greeting when I returned).  

     

    I think I could count the number of smiles on two hands over the three months. It was that noticeably absent. The shocking exceptions were the helpful, polite and grateful moto taxi guys. 

     

    I couldn't wait to move back to Bangkok (on New Year's Eve) where, IMO, 7-11, restaurant, bar and Big C service is remarkably better than in Pattaya. 

     

    Stupid to think that they are better in BKK, but the rest is correct, Thai will never improve.

  6. hello, Windex seems to work the best to clean poops and tree saps on car, and it's very cheap. Some people pretend to know that it's not safe for car paint but I call this BS from people who repeat what has been told to them to be sure that they buy something more expensive.

    I bought some special scamproducts to remove tar and poops, even tried wd40 as the lobbying from the brand push people to repeat again and again, but nothing works as well as Windex until now.

    What else do you use that is not overprice and also safe ?

     

    I am trying to find a detailing spray that will remove all the xhit from the car and at the same time "wax" it, but cannot find it. Any idea ?

    Thanks team !
