Is there only one stall selling eggs at that market? How much do they sell the eggs for there and what size are those eggs they sell? Do they also sell duck eggs?

Ok, after searching online for Tops, Villa, Big C and Makro, there are no Pasture-Raised eggs for sale by any of the supermarkets. On Tops there comes one labled as Pasture-Raised but when you go to the Youtube video of that farm producing the eggs, it's clearly a lie as they are shown to be locked up while only eating grains, they have nowhere to roam. Seems to be impossible to find any Pasture-Raised eggs in Pattaya.

It's not the same as free range. Free range means they only have a tiny door with access to go outside for a set period of time, if the hens so choose to. Here's a guide of the difference of the types of eggs:

Anyone buying Pasture-Raised or Organic Pasture-Raised eggs? Where do you buy these from in the Pattaya City area? Didn't see any being sold at Big C. Haven't checked other supermarkets yet. What about normal markets Thai people shop at?

Butter, olive oil or coconut oil. Don't touch that seed oil / vegetable oil rubbish.

DTV and 5-year driver's license
bbi1 replied to moana's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Ok, so I went to the Pattaya office, it's true. You will only get a 2 year renewal of your old 2 year licence on a DTV. You WILL NOT get a 5 year licence. DO NOT believe the OP if you have a DTV and are using Banglamung office for your renewal. -
Anyone knows why you can't do 90 day reporting at Jomtien Immigration? I asked yesterday if I could do it online at the 90 day desk, lady looked at my passport and said no, I have to do it in person. I have a DTV as my visa. I would've thought I could save some time and hassle if I could do it online. Is this another case of Jomtien being a pain office like usual? I forgot to ask yesterday, how soon in advanced are you allowed to do a 90 day report?

Went to Jomtien Immigration yesterday morning. Amazingly after getting the queue number, I only had one person waiting before my number was called. This was for a certificate of residency. I went there just after 9am. After handing over my documents, I was told to come back after 11am and go to desk 1 to pick up the certificate of residency. This is not actually desk 1 but desk 10, the first desk in the building where the 90 day reporting is. Came back at 11am and as it was after 11am, everyone started giving their queue numbers to the ladies at the desk to pick up their certificate of residency. There was none ready yet. She told everybody in an angry voice to come back after 11am, which it already was!! Anyway, around 11:45am the certificate of residency was available and I picked it up and went home. I remember absolute chaos 2 years ago when getting a certificate of residency in the old building with everyone standing around, and so many people in the queue. This time, only 1 person in the queue but still takes nearly 3 hours for the process. Oh, and it's still 300 baht gratuity as you will never get a receipt for it, unlike the 1,900 baht for extensions where you get a receipt.

Seems like they've got the afterparty at 808, Lucifer and Tunnel. Do you need a pre-purchased ticket to enter tonight, tomorrow or Sunday to those clubs?

If you don't like hip hop or rap, Pattaya is not for you. Somewhere like Issan where it's quiet and boring as hell would be more suitable.

Could the issue be that the majority of forum members are old fuddy duddies over the age of 70?

It's not rap, it's hip hop. Completely different. To quote from their website it's "The Biggest Hip Hop Festival in Asia" I'm sure that the under 50's crowd of foreigners are interested in hip hop. Living in Pattaya, hip hop is played everywhere. You walk past a beer bar, it's played. You go into a nightclub, it's played. You go into an Agogo, it's played. You walk past one of those cocktail cars, it's played. If someone doesn't want to hear hip hop, they shouldn't be living in Pattaya.

Revved up: Thai man’s motorcycle stolen in Pattaya
bbi1 replied to snoop1130's topic in Pattaya News
How easy would it be for a thief like this to steal is a couple year old Yamaha Aerox 155 with keyless entry? Are the newer bikes hard to steal? What happens if a rental bike gets stolen? Are you, as the renter responsible or the owner will be the one that needs to claim it on their insurance, if they have it? -
Who here is going to Rolling Loud Thailand this coming weekend at Legend Siam? Some massive names such as Akon, Tyga, Wiz Khalifa, A$AP Rocky, French Montana, Lil Wayne, Quavo will be there. I won't be going as I'm not a fan of being in a massive crowd of concert goers but I'll definitely hit up 808 for the afterparty with Tyga and Wiz Khalifa. Wondering how many Thai people will be going there as tickets are expensive so it's probably going to be full of foreigners and rich Thais there only. Anyone know for how many years Rolling Loud has been going on in Thailand already? I know they had one last year but what about the years before?

Yesterday I did also ask for the paperwork to do a certificate of residence, as this is something I will do later to renew my licence. Funny thing is, on the slip of required documents, it says: Evidence of your address (House Book, Lease Agreement or TM30). I'm wondering if someone doesn't do a TM30 if they will just accept you bringing your lease agreement only, as per their required documents square paper slip they gave.

Best time of day for jomtien immigration?
bbi1 replied to pomchop's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
That's really amazing there were nobody there for 30 day extensions. Is this a common thing these days? Because there are still tons of people coming to do stuff at immigration and it's not that many oldies on retirement visas doing their extensions there yesterday arvo. Others must've all been doing TM30, 90 day reporting and certificate of residencies.
