Addressed earlier here.

Umm to not be groped on walking street is probably even worse than being groped tbh.

I'm not a huge fan of the place however its all part of the game when you head into the sex capital of the world. Walking street in pattaya is pretty unique place, gross and hedonistic but sometimes thats exactly whats needed.

When I am in Pattaya I never go down walking street even in the daytime, most of my walking about is on Beach Road and never after 10pm. I have never approached a working lady, but am approached many times and always pleasant to them. I always only carry about 2000Bt with me in a zipped pocket.

500 baht is more than enough to be entertained by a beach road girl, anything more than that is juts giving your money away for no reason. Perhaps the rest is for a tip, depending on the service?

Who hasn't been groped in walking street?

I had 7,00 baht taken out of my pocket by some 5 year old children at 7am on walking street. Didn't report it though and was lucky enough to get my money back as some girl had seen the pickpockets ( i had no idea they had knicked my money)

Haha another round of royalties to be sorted out. They wont let this cow die until it has been fully milked.

His flight is not til the 11th of this month, surely the company will offer an alternative flight / refund, or route back, they / he still has a few days to sort. I wouldnt be panicking yet.

My only experience with a cancelled flight was with British airways ( i had an emergency in Thailand and it was the only ticket available at short notice) I paid £1,200 for an economy ticket, went to the airport to be told the flight was fully booked. Anyway i received about 500 euro compensation in the form a credit card and an alternative flight the same day to Austria and then connection to Bangkok. To be fair i had to propose this option as BA  officially moved me onto their next flight 24 hr later.

Haven't met a woman in Thailand yet that didn't think a farang husband or "boyfriend" would be better than most Thai  men.
Mind you most of them have been there with Thai men and paid a price. 

With all due respect, domestic violence happens in all  countries and its generally the lower uneducated classes.

The fact you have met so many 'Thai men haters' suggest you are not talking or socailising with the pinnacle of the community.

Its all also a bit of a 'pick up line', like all Thai men are horrendous and you are their knight in shining armour etc.. Yeh right!

Never heard of the guy but i am 45 not 75! ????

No countries property market is 'starting to see recovery' but nice try.

The original COVID vaccines were very effective at preventing transmission of the original version of the coronavirus, as advertised.... Then in latter months, the virus mutated to different forms...

 

The latter versions of the virus were able to escape the transmission protections of the vaccines to a larger extent. But the vaccines still even today significantly protect against serious illness and death from COVID.

 

From my perspective, it's better to largely prevent having serious illness from COVID in the first place via easily obtainable and free COVID vaccines vs. having to pay for the various imported anti-virals that have more limitations, more drug interaction concerns, and not any greater effectiveness than vaccines.

 

The antivirals are best being used as a treatment in the instances of so-called breakthrough COVID infections in the already vaccinated, and not as a substitute or replacement for COVID vaccines.

 

 

New COVID Antivirals Do Not Replace the Need to Vaccinate

 

...

"The most valuable asset we have in the fight against COVID-19 is still unequivocally vaccination, and the presence of effective drugs doesn’t change that."

 

"COVID antivirals, like monoclonal antibodies before them, are not a substitute for vaccinations. They are a complement to vaccines, and they serve an important function."

Most of my friends are in this group i.e had the first 2 shots (18 months ago) when they came out but nothing since. They are considered fully vaccinated for the statistcs however they are being told that they are late for their booster shot, which they are being advised to take. The booster is the same as a vaccine but is called a booster if you have already had 2 but a vaccine if you have had no shots. This literally does not make sense or add up. Perhaps someone can explain it better?

btw this hair loss story, probably more to do with stress.

Foolish.

 

I guess you feel that way about Polio, Measles, etc vaccines.

 

Ludicrous. 

Yes i still go for my polio booster every 3 months, have been since i was 6 year old.

To compare existing vaccines to what really can only be described as a 'symptom suppressor' at best, is bizarre.

Just look at the stats out there in terms of numbers of 'unvaccinated' in the world now.

Most of Africa under 20 % jabbed, Why are the hospitals not being over run? Why are are the deaths not high? These are all questions that you you really shoudl consider. The information is out there and it looks positively horrendous and contradictive to what we are actually told.

Did I say anything about a Thai worker....get a grip and read the post.  Many foreign employee's working for companies here, especially in the Insurance industry fly in and out heading to locations outside of Thailand to review the claim and interview folks, they then fly back in.  When I was working for an International Company here I was in and out twice a week and then returning, so that would be 8 trips out and back a month.  It was why I retired completely.  Your view at this point is irrelevant until it is listed in the Royal Gazette....if working and living in Thailand makes one a tourist instead of a long term stayer then their is a problem.....

upnotover said it, but didnt know his name so couldnt reference him, hence guy above that posted above, apologies for any confusion.

In 1977 at  a London University my neighbour  was doing her photography  dissertation on Tattoos. It was an academic illustrated thesis that included, the historical,  cultural,  religious and semiotic significance  of tattoos.  That was 45 years ago.

The OP has created a thread with a false premise by innacurate use of language 'fad' and by use of the modal verb 'might'.

It might  but it won't.

Oh yes, i've often commented or been shown someones new tattoo and always straight away, the very next thing is they give me the history and religious semiotic significance of their latest marking!?

So your always 110% correct and never wrong....hmmmm I see????, you would rather go off topic and bicker......

 

Tattoos are like an art exhibit that keeps changing as the people walk by.  Some are like a Picasso, others like a Rembrandt.....but we can always agree to disagree on what we see and what we like.

99% of tattoos are just copied stencils.....nothing to do with art.

Getting art on your body would mean going to the studio and just getting the artist do what he wants on your skin, that would be art.....not coping some daft picture of worst of all some daft slogan. 'You are my brothers keeper'

If i ever see a women with 'Love me for who i am' on her arm......its a great signal to run a mile.

Its strange that no one born after 1943 has ever been to the moon.

Ive been screwed over more by women in Thailand whom weren't technically a bar girl than by actual bar girls.

The thing is with bar girls is they have pretty much zero education and are very unaware of the big world wide, you can tell them anything and they will believe it. Not such an easy life dating a normal Thai women.

In terms of marriage best leave them all alone, marriage is an outdated and pointless task to go through and offers no benefits for the man. Other than that you can tell people that you are now married.

They really have no idea!

I walk the beachfront in Cha Am, no issues, but yes the water does go up to the seawalls in some parts at high tide.  The beaches near our house in Khao Tao and in Pranburi have wide open beaches, that we walk on during high and low tides.

Why not just agree with him, rather than give examples of Cha Am beach and Khao Tao which is nothing to do with what we are discussing. Seen this on other threads rather than just agree he changes the dynamics of the conversation, strange.
