So they fly U-tapao - Heathrow ?

yep via doha the last time I checked because that will likely be my route back for a holiday next year - if they get a lounge ..

Timings were good with only a short stopover....But I haven't checked in a while..

I have no idea why they publish details of "informant" .....

Maybe the informant informed of partying at house 366/43 not that the informant lived there ?

Yep it could well have been a grammatical error in the report or it could be the address of The Majestic Residence Pool Villa...My Bad..

Where in the UK do flights from U-tapao land ?

If you are looking for a 1 stop flight anywhere that Qatar airways land...I think...

No no. Ambition is a good thing, though perhaps your experience of Thai girls needing a fix isn't something you should shout from the rooftops. Sorry, just needling

I should add "grunting" to the list too...so many meanings just by itself but as a permutation with the others on the list it is a staggering vocabulary of movements and sounds..

It has taken me 4 years to rid myself of it after a very long time living "in the village"...

Hmmm. I think you don't think enough. Thanks for revealing that they're not real though, that passed me right by.

 

Is Eastenders not real either? Please don't shatter my world.

Good one...but UK soaps follow real life whereas Thai life follows Thai soaps....hence the hair flicking (not Herr Flicking) eyes rolling, head twitching and multitudes of facial expressions you see ... or it could just be that the girls I see need a fix ....In which case I am totally wrong and out of my depth here..

There are at least 20 different types of smile in the Thai armoury. Most are not genuine, and range from a contemptuous smile to the condescending smile to the infamous 'kee-nok' smile. These take practice to discern and I'm frankly still learning, even though I've studied bosy language for years..

 

I think you watch too many Thai Soaps but ....... I know this is going to hurt......They are not real life....

It's just the gradual Americanisation of Thai culture.She had obviously been watching Melania and Donald together.

I traveled last year with them back to BKK never again very old 777-200 business class very bad

Yep. I used to use BA regularly business class LHR to Biejing in the early 90s ( non smoking business class was on the upper deck!!)..Then they became shit so I stopped using them until a few years ago into T3. I had booked and paid for my seat in economy class (25 quid maybe) but on checking in at LHR they had changed the plane to one with a different seating plan...I ended up with a centre seat and was told I could only get my money back if I went to their offices in BKK or sent them a letter of complaint...... I did neither..

This episode and their move to T5 with no post office for an IDP did it for me. Never never never BA again..

Hi Argus 
           hoping to fly late June into July.
I haven't bought a ticket yet as I'm waiting (for ever) for surface mail regarding this years tax return.
This involves a code sent to my Thai phone, so that's that.

I've now found the "open return" ticket is outdated online and I have give a return date.
That's today's project.

I have just read Argus' post where he quoted your remaining questions. Regarding "choosing a seat"...it depends on the airline and travel class whether you can pre-book and whether it is free or not..

That is obviously true but you will only find out if there is no solution without first seeking one.

4. You tie up resourches

5. There is solutions to your problems

 

 

I would agree except that your option "5. There is solutions to your problems" should always be number one option..

Darn, now my dreams about all the beautiful French ladies is shattered. After watching that video I think I may have been misled. My late great father told me how beautiful all the French ladies were during WW2. Now I suspect while marching across France, he may have developed a drinking problem and had one to many bottles of Vino.

But as the country and western song goes, the girls all get prettier at closing time.

Agree! which is the flaw in Jingthing's insistence on facial recognition....Not even a randy goat could manage a facial in this case.....or have I totally misunderstood what he was referring to...????

Let the buggers rot, they wouldnt co-operate with the police.

They will only speak to embassy officials, good that should take a while, give them time to ponder their disgusting act.

Agree . It'll make things move a l'escargot pace ....

The only thing that changed during the economic crisis was that foreigners got more Baht for their money, so they spent easier, and the Thais got more Bahts for that reason.

 

Money makes people smile.

Prior to, during and shortly after the crash, "normal Thai office girls" became concerned for their jobs, got pay cuts and some lost their jobs. Getting a freebie was never easier if you had a car and a condo. But as you say, we had "loadsamoney"  and we were willing to go out and have a good time and the girls were just along for the "ride"..........Brilliant days!!!

Fair enough. A 5000 Baht reward for a crappy phone that's probably barely worth 5000 Baht if you tried to sell it at MBK - what's on that phone that the owner is willing to basically buy back their own phone?

I thought it was 5,000 baht for finding the thieves not finding the phone...
