Listening to a bloke in the pub is always the best way to garner the most reliable of information on any subject or topic. Thanks for the letting us in on it.

Surely there are transport services available for you to get back to civilisation.

I wouldn't get out of bed for 3%.

Good grief 😬

I never wai anyone. A smile and perhaps a gentle nod of the head is sufficient in my mind for me as I am not Thai. Been coming for 25 years and lived here for 12, but I am still not Thai and never will be. The only time I can picture myself performing a wai is if I have an encounter with immigration officials or police where a positive outcome is dependant upon them, but that hasn't happened yet. I cringe when I see farang at a bar, restaurant, or reception waiing the staff - eek!

I went to Royal Garden Plaza today at around 11.30am for my third shot, first booster -Pfizer, which followed AZx2. Enter at the Beach Road end. Up one level on the escalator. Just on your right. There were perhaps 8 people in front of me but they were already progressing through the process and by the time I got to sit and wait for the actual injection I was sat for less than a minute when the time came. Only saw one farang, the rest were Thais. Nothing compared to the crowds and long queues at Central Festival for the previous vaccinations last year. My decision to get this booster was based more upon ease of international travel than protection. In addition to Royal Garden Plaza this following link may be useful for other options in Pattaya as well as for Hua Hin, Chiang Mai and Khon Kaen. https://members.bccthai.com/BCCT/asp/news.asp?NewsID=1101&SponsorID=0

Arriving in any country with less than 4 bucks of local currency in your pocket seems a bit thoughtless and adds unnecessary hassle on arrival, especially after a long trip. It's always worth taking some Baht back home with you at the end of a trip. At least enough for a sim card (if you need one) and to cover transport to your first accommodation and perhaps some food, drinks or snacks. For me it's just common sense.

A bigger table wouldn't hurt.
