  1. 1- On Agoda or Booking.com, guest reviews of 7 and above (and there should be a large number of reviews, not just a few). 2- Near where I want to be, and I double check this with Google Maps Street View, where I can see the actual surroundings and distance to shops, etc. 3- In my price range (you can enter it when searching). 4- Pictures of hotel and my chosen room category are nice. 5- Plus points: Balcony, microwave, bathtub, smart TV in room.
  2. It is quite the opposite! Driving a car, anybody could do it. A boat has an amazing amount of inertia, and the precise calculations necessary to dock it, takes some skill, and some training.
  3. You do realize that it would be much appreciated if you quoted the price you paid?
  4. Well the bard would be spinning in his grave knowing he had a movie!
  5. I think the guy was drinking something a little different, beer maybe? That entails a LOT of pee, everywhere, IMHO.
  6. Good comments, from good people. Yes, there is good and bad in every society. From my point of view, it is good that this is seeing the light. I know a few years ago, this would never had made the news. My personal opinion, and maybe I've been lucky, is that most Thai's are friendly, helpful and good people.
  7. Why has AseanNow not reported this story? https://thethaiger.com/news/national/monkey-madness-thai-mans-roadside-pee-leads-to-wild-monkey-attack Because I am anxiously waiting the guffaws that will eminate from my body after reading some of the hilarous comments that will surely follow!
  8. I didn't understand a word of this post! So he gave her 1000 for a 25 baht drink, and she returned the 1000 to him? So how in heck did he "steal" 950 baht????? What kind of reporting is this? For lunatics?
  9. You, Sir, are doing a great disservice to the shop by not naming it for us.
  10. For me, hands down, is DOMS PIZZA in Pratumnak. Really big pizzas for under 300 baht! I get free delivery on FoodPanda / Grab.
  11. I used to be so happy with Dunhill Red (the tall packet), but alas it is gone! Now, I'm on the hunt for a similar taste, and have found nothing that compares! Most are too mild, some are too strong, and I have found a comparable strength in the surprisingly cheap iScore5, but it has menthol in it, which I don't really care for! Any "cigarette connoisseurs" out there, who can point to what I really need? Short of buying dozens of different packets for thousands of baht and throwing them out, I thought I'd give this forum a try, due to the experts prevalent here! Jokes are welcome, but serious suggestions will be greatly appreciated!
  12. Are you trying to say that democracy does not exist in Singapore, and objecting to government policies is illegal, or will be met with some type of punishment?
  13. These are the cheapest rates I've seen so far! Where is this bar?
  14. I thought the Constitutional Court already accepted the petition to rule on whether or not it was legal to block Pita's vote for PM?
  15. Seems to me this "incredible" device takes up approx. THREE parking spaces, to park one car!!!
  16. Agreed. He was smart enough to know that saying "I saw her and tried to stop..." would cause a lot more explaining than "I felt something".
  17. Well, they did beat him, and apparently poop on him, does that count?
  18. And now, the MAXIM app, even cheaper than Bolt!
  19. You did not mention size, facilities, etc. required. Try Katalina very close to immigration (thus only a 3-4 minute walk to Jomtien Beach) they have very large apartments around 15,000 per month, for shorter terms.
  20. THANK YOU, Benq, I'm expecting a (largish) foreign remittance on that day! Hope your info is correct!
  21. Lazada is quite strange, I returned a few items this year, low prices around 100 baht or so, they refunded all my money, and never bothered to pick up the items, even months later! I decided to give them away!
  22. Does anybody know if the banks are open on Monday, 31st July? Thanks!
  23. Yes, but how do you see it in Thailand? I have Netflix, and google shows it's on Netflix, but I can not find it at all!
  24. Thank you for this, now I have some hope again!
  25. I once put two cheap extractor type fans in the walls on either side of a room, one blowing inwards, and the other blowing outwards (made sure to put mosquito nets on them) and it worked a charm!
