Personally, I think location, location, location. I saw some great houses in crappy areas. Try Perfect Place 77 - Perfect Masterpiece if you want to spend 50m. https://www.pf.co.th/th/project/single-house/perfect-place/sukhumvit77-suvarnabhumi?utm_source=googlemap&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=googlemap_house https://www.pf.co.th/th/project/single-house/perfect-masterpiece/sukhumvit77 Estate is nice. Lived there for years. Right next to Paseo, Robinsons, Homepro, Makro. 10 minutes from the Airport.

Like many airlines ex-Thai staff still get cheap tickets. That's one of the reasons the front is full. 100% fact as I know ex-crew.

I'm interested, but not that interested that I'm searching for twenty minutes! Why can't you just post a link?

Can we have a link please? Sounds interesting. RAZZ

Apartments are owned by a single entity and can charge what they want. Then again I have lived in a condo where the electricity was more than the Government rate. Ask,

You can critique a place without needing to "leave". Plus, on the whole, a lot of Thai institutions do need criticising...maybe they might up their game! RAZZ

Enlighten me RAZZ

A guess...Belgian guy owes Frenchie money, French goes to meet him and "confiscates" his possessions in lieu of payment and stuffs them in backpack. Belgian guy grasses Frenchie... Police come... "It's all a misunderstanding" CASE CLOSED RAZZ

What dates? June, July, August over a grand.

Maybe £800 single on Thai Have to be extremely lucky with dates to get a return for that amount now. RAZZ

Whatever happened to those French guys? Young to be driving around in a brand new 10m motor!

Well, it won't be 12 x 2m as it only just reached 2 million during this high season! RAZZ

Exactly - laundrettes. RAZZ

I guess you are not in Bangkok, but you could try Fortune Town? Or someone there might know a company that does.

Do you work for TAT? Everyone knows that the first 3-4 months are the "high season", with Christmas, New Year, Chinese New Year and Songkran. They're not even getting an average of 2m a month now. They'll be lucky to break 20m - which is HALF of pre-covid levels. RAZZ

What current BS numbers are they using now? I thought TAT predicted 25m tourists this year? RAZZ

I once saw a YouTube interview with James Dowling, Rolex Legend. In the 90s he was at an auction in New York and "Bubblesbacks" were "the thing" and fetched more than Daytonas. Fashion and tastes change. Although a pretty safe bet to "invest" (I hate that word with regards to watches) in discontinued references. RAZZ

Well, facts matter.

As mentioned Thai Smile have a "Premium Economy/Smile Plus" class.

Rolex don't sell watches. They supply watches to their Authorised dealers who then sell them - so you will never get a "Rolex" receipt. RAZZ

The drivers fault. Don't now whether the driver was trying to swerve around them (on the wrong side of the road?). My guess is he didn't see them with a tinted screen. RAZZ

To the OP, I have stayed in all of these and you can probably get a room for about 1200 a night: This one has a nice rooftop bar - right next to 72 Race & Bar and about 10 other places, Warehouse 8 etc. Good Thai nightlife. https://suvarnabhumisuite.com/ Both of the below are within a few minute walk to Robinsons and Paseo Mall in Lat Krabang. Not as good as it used to be but ok: https://www.thecottagebangkokairport.com/ Older, but big rooms. https://www.arantaairporthotel.com/

What time are they landing? I would always advise on an overnight stay 5 minutes away in Lat Krabang area and get the flight the next day. Loads of nice and cheap hotels. I don't think I would want a long international flight then an 8 hour taxi journey! RAZZ

This bloke built a nice villa in CM. Email him he might have an idea.

There has been a previous thread on this and I can't find all that much recent information online. Does anyone know the "exact" locations of where the ICONSIAM and Wongamat Village Shopping Malls are supposedly being built in Jomtien and Pattaya? Has there been any progess? https://www.globalpropertythailand.com/en/page/a-pair-of-new-malls-for-pattaya-shoppers
