enraged Thai nationals who demanded the rider be found and arrested.

Who writes this kkrapp ? The Thais are the worst drivers/riders in the world, go out for a 15 minute ride and see how many rule infractions you can spot.

Sizing and fit is obviously important... (i.e. head-shape) if you know that, then ordering online from the https://www.helmetshopbkk.com, or Paddock, or Panda Rider in Bangkok - You’ll get good helmets, but as you are in Pattaya there’s not really good chance to try them on. 

 

There are other threads on this forum where posters have asked the same question. 

 

Run a forum search, and if that isn’t too good (as the forum search is fairly weak), run a google search which includes aseasnnow... (i.e. Helmet shop pattaya aseasnnow) and you may get a decent thread where such options are discussed...

There used to be an upmarket helmet shop at the bottom of Soi Siam Country Club, as you turn into SSCC from the Sukhumvit road it was on the left, not sure if its still there though.

I just want you to know it's not a cheap place ... it has fountains and marble ... but no coffee

Wow, I'm so totally impressed, now my life is complete.

Could you do us all a favour and find somewhere with no internet access ??

We are guests in this country and I believe we should act that way.  None of us can vote here and I think it's very inappropriate to comment one way or the other in the politics of our host country..  JMHO

You have a lot to learn Grasshopper.

Bring it on please, we could do with some rain to cool it all down, we've had far too much sun and heat for far too long, sometimes I long for the cold wet days of a summer in the UK LOL ????

Times have changed a lot, 12 years ago I just walked into the local Kasikorn with 30,000 baht which I dropped on the counter and told them I wanted/needed to open an account, 30 minutes later I walked out with the job done. 

Wishful thinking by the looks of it.

I remember seeing ads for a gogo that advertised rooms upstairs - rooms to stay in, like a guesthouse, but with, as you say, a jacuzzi, nice decor and a 'VIP' vibe...

Can't recall the name though ????

Was that Secrets bar ?? That was a great place, had some fun with the girls in there ???? Happy memories.

Loads i miss -  Beavers, X Zone, Casnovy, Angelwitch, Sisterz, FLB, Club Boeche, Peppermint (upstairs). All the new ones are just the same boring format.

Yep I know what you're saying, I used to go to all of those back in the day, had sooooo much fun, 1st trip here was in 2005 I think, came with a mate, we were like kids in a candy shop ???? a whole month of adult fun, after that it was twice a year every year till I retired here back in 2011, oh such happy days. ????

Summer storms, high winds and heavy rainfall.

All those flimsy structures should be sorted out now before the storm season starts.

Better than picking up the pieces after.

Thai's being proactive !!! You really have lost the plot ????

Out on the Darkside yesterday (25/4/23) we had the power out for over 2 hours, even though it was hissing down with rain it was still very hot & sticky, went outside & sat under cover where it was cooler than indoors till the power came back on, people don't realise just how much we depend on electricity to make our lives more comfortable.

At 71 my libido has taken a dive, with a relatively young partner (mid 40's) I would like to be able to enjoy close sexual contact again, would Testerone injections help in this department ??

Did the doctor ask the patient for permission to publish this information?

 

Obviously people should not cheat when they gamble. But even if they do that that doesn't give any doctor the right to publish this info without permission.

I think you'll find it's been all over the news, the TV news had it on earlier.

It has a white top I think, but try reading the label, thats usually a giveaway.
