  1. Because the government is made up of old f**** who were brought up in old fashioned system where only the well off could get a decent education for their kids they have no idea about how the kids should be educated in the modern society. To start with kids education should be free if they really mean business, how many of the girls working in the bar industry had an education, I think next to none of them.
  2. I asked my son what he eats for school dinner, rice and chicken etc usually, I asked no fruit no, sweets from the in school shop he said. Obviously the school are not concerned about the kids diet,
  3. And they weren’t much busier in high season either.
  4. I am very surprised supporters of The Move Forward Party do not appear to be bothered about the goings on in Parliament ?
  5. Might be less but still over a £1000 although slightly less from the London airports, just checked them.
  6. I arrived back from the U.K. a couple of weeks ago Emirates, Newcastle via Dubai, on both flights the economy seats were full, they ain’t going reduce prices when they are flying full.
  7. Checking the flights for December and January from the U.K. not many below a £1000 not unless you like long layovers or 3 2 plus changes.
  8. On Soi Bukhao the majority of bars selling beer 60 baht although there were very customers in any of the bars similar in New Plaza, Soi 7 and Soi Pothole. The bars on Beach Road had a few customers but not that many. They will all be hoping for a decent high season if there is one but with the high airfares I can’t see it happening unfortunately.
  9. He probably didn’t own property in the U.K. so couldn’t provide the required documentation.
  10. Many Thais don’t live where their House Registrations are, my partner House Registration is in Isaan, I doubt very much we are going travel 12 hours plus house for 10000 baht.
  11. More coming as flights from are going to increased in the coming months, I thought Russians weren’t allowed to leave Russia ?
  12. What happens if he/she is staying at a friends house not a hotel or guest house, should the house owner have done a TM 30 ?
  13. For me the high season starts later now mid November and ends the first fortnight in January, the days of long term holidays for foreigners has disappeared never to return. Still hotels closed including the one on Soi Bukhao where the dining area is now a cannabis outlet.
  14. Very personal attention that’s why GC are behind closed doors, posh name for a brothel.
  15. When I used B.A. a couple of times it was a 777 albeit it the seats were well worn.
  16. I agree TAT need to start following the Chinese economy and realise it’s not booming like it was pre Covid.
  17. High season will be interesting to see if all the people who watch the YouTube blogs by various bar owners in Pattaya actually turn up.
  18. For some reason B.A. said they won’t reinstate the direct flight from Heathrow, could be it’s not profitable only 1 flight a day and having to use 2 flight crews. When used the flight pre Covid it was more or less full.
  19. I flew from Utapao to Dubai, looked arabic families people returning home, Fight from Newcastle to Dubai was tourists, Dubai to BKK looked a mixture of returning Thais and tourists.
  20. If airfares drop it might encourage more tourists but on my recent trip to the U.K. the flights were more or less full both ways in economy therefore fares are not going be reduced by airlines. I travelled Business Class from Dubai to BKK, A380 handful of passengers in Business Class, 2 in First Class no idea how Emirates make money on that flight. On a side note the food was disgusting, economy meal served on plates but it appeared to have been reheated several times over. I have sent a complaint to Emirates but no reply as yet.
  21. Buy an Amazon Alexa subscribe to Amazon Music and you can ask for what oldies you want and also listen to radio stations as well, I use mine here in Thailand, think you can buy one from Lazada.
  22. Gentlemen’s Clubs another name for strip joint or a brothel is that why they are behind closed doors ?
