  1. I'm getting bored here and I have been here over a week!

    1000 baht is now $50 Australian

    Too expensive!!!!!

     

    To leave your own country,it's a risk in life 

    Wouldn't most of you be better just to visit Thailand 2 times a year though instead of moving here ?

  2. I was in a restaurant/ diner yesterday in Soi Bukhao 

    I looked to see a farang couple running it 

    I looked around and imagined I could own this and imagined the sign out the front changing to George's 24 hr Diner 

    I often imagined when I was a kid watching that TV comedy show "Alice ' where she was the waitress in Mels Diner and I was Mel the angry owner

     

    I couldn't move here to Pattaya and do nothing ,it's morning here I think 5am  now and I was in bed last night at 7pm

    Im looking for ideas on what makes a good diner 

    I want to run one in Soi Bukhao and make it 24 hours with News TV screens 

     

    I found the diner I went to yesterday a bit expensive but then again I heard their breakfasts are 99 baht ...how would they make a profit on that ?

    Can anyone tell me ?

    Maybe coffee is not included?

    I think you should go back and tell them how to run their own business...   :whistling:

    I was thinking about it ..but the big farang bird looked like she could go a few rounds

       You Aussies can be rather rude and obnoxious , don't they reach you politeness in Aussie schools ?

    We don't have brain surgeons in Australia

  5. I just discovered this place in Pattaya I believe Soi Bukhao 

     

    I'm trying to find the reggae bar I accidentally walk down a side street to see what looks like a house with a big front veranda 

     

    It looks like the owners are a older farang  man & lady???? I could be wrong 

     

    I saw them sitting out the front they said how are you to me as I approached,not knowing they were the owners I said ,"mind your own business!

     

    Beautiful food delicious at great prices  ,another great service .

    I would have to say their bangers n mash is the best I tasted 

     

    My only complaint is over staffing ,I counted 6 waitresses ,you don't need that many staff .

  6. Among my complaint letters written this week,and yes I keep a list 

    Dynamite,Agoda , Trip ,and a few companies in Australia I also have  Grab on the list !

    I was overcharged too and wrote to them ,at first they sent me out a generic email in reply denying my refund of 100 B

    It was a taxi I ordered from Grab not a normal car ,he the driver added 125 b too after I left the car 

     

    I wrote to them ( Grab HQ) the second time with the office  person name in Grab HQ asking them how many sick days they took this year and if they had medical certificates

     

    Lo & behold they accredited my account with 200 B with an apology 

    Moral of the story is , DON'T order a Bolt or Grab TAXI just order a "normal " car 

     

     

     

  7. Thankyou MadMuhammed I must check out this Cloud9 sports bar 

     

    Probably this weekend I will come into watch the Australian soccer 

    I hoped you played the big boxing match in Sydney last night ,Dynamite sports bar didn't play it and went up to Brewster sports bar I think it's called, just up the road 

    A lovely beautiful bar with fantastic staff and beutifying atmosphere

    You are just the sort we don't need here,,here's me one foot in the grave and suffering the most kind people ever,,always show me respect as I do them,if I'm standing always someone will fetch me a chair.Please dont be English I will be very ashamed.

    No I'm Australian 

    Well if you got one foot in the grave ,my advice don't buy a yearly lottery ticket ! 

  9. They do say that RED Wine is good for you though 

    I remember one late night in Sydney last year at around 2am ,I was having a bad work shift so signed off and went and sat in a very little jazz dark jazz bar in Sydney City on a rainy Tuesday night 

    I met another old man with glasses in a suit , he was also drowning his sorrows and was fit as a fiddle for 67 because of wine but anyway the story is that he was a Court Judge and he told me he had sentenced a guy that day to 25 years jail 

    I hugged him and he cried on my shoulder 

    I told him to release the guy  the next day when goes back to work.

    Oh I can't do that he said drunkenly, 

    Please I said ,do it for me ,do it for George "

    He said ok I will

    This is lowbrow entertainment for the <deleted> 

    I agree Mike Hunt , I'm in Pattaya now and only went to two sports bars in a week 

    I done something exciting today ,I have stood on Jomtien second road and looked up in the sky ,you will be amazed how many people stopped to look up too

    After getting the first six questions correct, the quiz gave me a score of 6/10 without asking any further questions.

     

    Quiz for the OP - what chemical compound is used as the standard in measuring smoke taint in wine?

     

     

     

    I got all.of them right 

    I always get everything right I do

    Not sorry, I don't speak Australian, or Indian...but does "not this little black duck" translate to something like "no phuking way"??

    I'm not sure 

    I heard it from a Old Scotsman in Soi Bukhao 

    A waitress asked him for a big tip ,and he said Not this little black duck darlin !

    I loved his dominance 

    Not this little black duck

  13. Unfortunately Dynamite lounge didn't play the Australian boxing so I had to go to Brewster sports bar just up the road

    Both great sports bars and thankyou although I will be lodging a complaint letter about NOT having the Australian boxing on at Dynamite sports bar

    You used a debit (ATM) card to purchase online? Fool. Only use credit cards. At least then you have some recourse.

    Oh really?

    I had no idea thankyou 

    Good news from Agoda is the "booking partner " has refused my request however as a goodwill gesture Agoda had given me the refund in credits 

    Thankyou Agoda
