  1. No point withdrawing from an atm from a foreign account you get charged 220 baht per withdrawal.
  2. Will the banks be required to notify the tax authorities if you receive money in your account from overseas ? if you use the monthly income for your extension will you have to increase this to allow for tax deductions ?
  3. Krungsri froze my account after I was stuck in the U.K. for 15 months, after 2 years they said they would closed it if there was no activity on the account.
  4. Emirates check in at BKK are very lackadaisical judging by size of some of the carry on luggage. At Newcastle your carry on bag is weighed and tagged at check in, it’s checked again tag only when go through the boarding gate.
  5. I think coming soon meals will be optional on long haul flights, if you want one you will have to pay for it.
  6. You will, have flown from Newcastle KLM and BA, Amsterdam, Heathrow and you are allowed the check in baggage for the flight to Bangkok.
  7. 3 levels of fares when you book a KLM flight, Skyscanner and agents gives the cheapest one which is carry on luggage only. If you book through KLM direct there are usually 3 levels but some times the cheapest ones are not always available although BC always is.
  8. A few bars here in Pattaya have English managers, how do they get a Work Permit for doing that ?
  9. Just buy what you need here save all the hassle, give the stuff at home to charity, that’s what I did.
  10. I think Johnson’s misdemeanours were more than a beer, for a start he lied to the Queen, then lied again in Parliament denying any involvement in parties and prorogued Parliament illegally.
  11. You can extend the entertainment centre all the way up to Soi buakhao.
  12. They could limit water throwing to one day nationwide, that would save millions of litres of water.
  13. I think the thick ones ate those who made a comment on the topic, 7 pages up to now.
  14. I always stay 2/3 nights, I live in Pattaya, by the time you get there get to a beach you are thinking about coming back.
  15. Bought one in Home Pro, blew out cool air in the shop only because the surrounding air in the shop was cooled by the shop AC, I wouldn’t recommend one unless you have a very small room.
  16. A colleague had his done in the U.K., it was a production line he said, nurses administrating drops, as soon as 1 went patient came out more or less another one went in, waited 20 minutes after the op then home, back in a month for a check up.
  17. Why would they inject in your eye, I had both eyes done recently, a series of drops to freeze my eye which took longer than the procedure. No ill effects after op, in and out in a couple of hours, Pattaya Jomtien for both eyes including medication and follow up checks.
  18. Because the stock on the shelves has already been taxed I would assume ?
  19. Publicity stunt, prospective tourist will look at the numbers and think we better book as there will be no flights available with those numbers.
  20. He had a bar on the ground floor, called Buzzin Bar, big plans were afoot, open air bar on the roof etc, they used to do pub crawls twice a week from there. The biggest problem like there was no footfall. I haven’t been down that way for a while, I doubt it will still be operating as he has place on Soi Pothole, Gentleman Club.
  21. If they enforced the law where no alcohol sales were allowed between 2 and 5 that might curtail the issue of alcohol sales, bars flaunt the law but the Police turn a blind eye.
  22. Not surprised a huge shed like construction with a tin roof and open at the front, need to be rammed every night to pay the electricity bill alone.
  23. Wasn’t Buzzin Trevor backing that ?
  24. Obviously they had run out of food when I flew with them and just gave me the economy meal.
  25. Wrong, I have travelled on several flights with Emirates both economy and BS over the last 10 years, same menu same meals. They might have done a few years back but not now, First Class I would think so.
