  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. Because the stock on the shelves has already been taxed I would assume ?
  5. Publicity stunt, prospective tourist will look at the numbers and think we better book as there will be no flights available with those numbers.
  6. 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.
  7. 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.
  8. 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.
  9. Wasn’t Buzzin Trevor backing that ?
  10. Obviously they had run out of food when I flew with them and just gave me the economy meal.
  11. 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.
  12. I travelled back with Emirates, there are obviously benefits travelling Business Class but the food you get is the same as economy only served on a proper plate. The breakfast was very poor, dried up, I complained but all I got was an apology and they would pass my complaint on to the catering department
  13. I did for my Thai wife and son, in and out in 10 minutes, no queuing up either.
  14. Never keep large amounts of money in an account that can be accessed with a debit card, keep a minimal amount and transfer as and when you need cash.
  15. The first timers will go for the ‘bright’ lights initially and ones that watch on YouTube.Nick Dean was advertising his bars on signs on the baht buses, they appear to have been removed, I doubt it attracted any additional customers though.
  16. I can’t imagine small bottles of beer for much less than 100 baht if air conditioned then, the expats who live here won’t be flocking to it irrespective of the decor either. Any bar business if they want to make a go of it has to price beers accordingly to attract expats if they want all year trade. One on the corner of Soi 19 Soi Bukhao happy hour 50 baht until 6pm, it was empty the other day so even cheap beer doesn’t attract the punters.
  17. I agree but the new Myth Night place and Treetown bars are not frequented by expats who live here, they only go where alcohol is reasonably priced.
  18. The fella who refurbished 4 bars in Soi 7 is English not Thai not unless a Thai is fronting him ?
  19. I can’t see the logic of opening a bar complex at this time of year, ok they might have a good few days for Songkran but that’s only the Expat tourists who will be spending in the bars.
  20. I would like to see the business plans of the new bar owners, there are more bars than ever but fewer customers, bound to be some ‘casualties’ along the way. From the Myth Night Complex to Soi Bukhao there must be 70/80 small individual bars, the old Tesco Lotus is now a beer bar complex.
  21. I was awake with a nurse standing by with a gas and air mask, I had a few gulps when the probe ‘hit’ something tender in my intestine. There is a risk if the probe pierces the intestines, I had an IV needle in my right arm in the event the probe punctured my intestine and I required a blood transfusion.
  22. They don’t have to put you to sleep, I had one in the U.K., you have a choice, sleep or gas and air, I chose the gas and air, I only used it once during the procedure.
  23. For some reason not meant toilets in Shopping Malls have bum guns ?
  24. What documents do you need to upload to do the TM30 online.
  25. Pattaya Klang the same but where is all the traffic going to heading down to Beach Road, these can’t be tourists but day trippers. I tried to get a Baht Bus on Pattaya Tai yesterday, there wasn’t any, they used to park up at the top of Pattaya Tai but yesterday there wasn’t any, a long walk to Friendship and not one passed me in either direction ?
