  1. Well I will still wear my face mask after July 1st outside as have bought quite a few waste not want not Will gauge the reaction where I stay and see how many people stop wearing them concerned more with the Thai peoples response ????
  2. If I am in a restaurant and receive good service wth a smile usually leave a 40 - 50 baht tip ????
  3. There's me thinking it was already the rain season ????
  4. Seems to be a few weathy Indian Tourists around I was under the impression when they went out were known as not big spenders sharing a coke a cola ect
  5. This subject of dogs attacking people especially on bikes is never ending No action is taken to seriously to deter the owners Huge fines Dogs put down even threats of going to prison I myself have been bitten 3 times when out on my bike ride which caused me 3 visits to the hospital get injections The dogs were street dogs
  6. There's me thinking they are trying to encourage tourists coming to Thailand Hua Hin ect Then some official comes out with this rubbish ???? Unbelievable
  7. There should be a notice given to Tourists when they arrive in Thailand Advise Don't cycle on the roads probably could say the same about motor bikes As well
  8. Majority of tourists will be drinking alcohol at the beach between 2 and 5 When I first saw the headline thought reason at last then read hotels and restaurants only which cater for the tourist ????
  9. Agree with not wearing a mask outdoors walking areas ect But will continue when visiting hospitals shopping Malls ect I take you do the same
  10. Would have thought they would give out a notice say for instance in 3 months the wearing of the face masks will be relaxed in certain ares That would give time for the shops storing the boxes of masks time to reduce their stock Holdings and not lose money ????
  11. As the old saying goes you make your bed and lie in it Probably most of us could not afford to leave Thailand or want to This subject is brought up quite a few times end result majority of us are staying ????
  12. Just have to get used to a lower pound as it could drop further as long as the baht stays over the 40 no problem ????
  13. How many times have we read of foreigners being killed or injured on Thailand roads riding motor bikes or Bicycles Usually pick ups or trucks involved ???? RIP
  14. Was just wondering how much time the average tourist from Europe gets off in Holidays would have thought 30 days was sufficient But if they want to extend to 45 days why not will save some people going the visa hop way plus paying for the extension ????
  15. I am afraid its a way of life here in Thailand Loan sharks are here to stay people will always need to borrow money They won't or can't get from the bank so not to many options open for them And as already mentioned these money lenders have friends in high places
  16. I must admit when using Zebra crossings I sometimes fear after some cars stop its the motor bikes you need to look out for usually going to fast Coming at the side of the stopped cars
  17. The way things are going with the Royal Family Prince Andrew, Harry ect Prince Charles when he becomes King won't have much of a Commonwealth to rule over As quite a few will have broken away doing their own thing
  18. With the cost of living going up around the world I think tourists will be watching their money ???? on the best cheapest places to travel ???? I think Thailand will be looking at the Chinese and Indian markets As Europe and The USA will find travelling more expensive
  19. If everyone stuck to the rules instead of flouting them Then maybe things would get back to normal quicker ????
  20. Yes we would all love more Baht for our currency tourist's expats ect Great if you have $ ???? If its British Sterling forget it all I can see is its going lower ????
  21. If people on here are that concerned about plastic waste ect Why don't they help clean it up Don't read to many stories of expats tourist ect cleaning up the beaches As before in Pattaya Phuket to name a few
  22. In the 80s it was cheaper and easier to fly to Thailand Met a Thai girl married have family Now retired Love the Thai food. People great ???? Cheap as to what you want to afford or spend your life style on Could go on more positives then negatives ????
  23. Yes agree he has to go On who will replace him there are a few contenders Unlike Labour who have no hope in any future elections with their current leadership canadates
  24. I can't get to worked up about wearing a face mask as some people do There are more important things to worry about ie Thais putting food on the table having a job could go on
