  1. I have met loads over the years, they come across as being to serious I find thats the older ones from back in the USSR, There is a couple of younger ones live near me when I see them they are always friendly to me, and the women come across as being cold I just tell them You smile they smile, I did learn a few words of Russian, most of the younger ones do speak English, I think you would be miserable if you had to live in minus 30 degrees,
  2. Do you mean European OTA's? or the Chinese ones? My daughter booked through TUI last year, doesn't seem much demand for package tours here, people seem to make their own way here, thinking the can get cheap accommodation when they get here,
  3. I see the Irish bar in Patong ar giving Free shots every time Scotland score
  4. Man Utd first 5 PL Fixtures: Fulham (H) Brighton (A) Liverpool (H) Southampton (A) Crystal Palace (A)
  5. All the highlights from all the games here guys, https://hoofoot.com/
  6. Could happen, especially if he doesn't remember the number,
  7. Bikes getting stolen happens a lot in Phuket, When my wife first moved to Phuket I bought her a new Fino, It got stolen still had the red plate on it, the thieves just picked it up and put it on a truck. A neighbour of mine had his bike and sidecar stolen a couple of years back, A couple months ago we bought a new Yamaha Grand Filano in white it looks good, people are telling me that's the one that gets stolen the most, the white ones,
  8. I know he should not have stolen it but that is a bad habit leaving the key in the ignition, It wouldnt have been long before a Thai would have come along and stolen it,
  9. When I die, dont send me to heaven, there is too many Filipino bands playing Hotel California up there
  10. I thought the same, it's great down here in Phuket I used it the other day reasonable price, plus you know how much before you start
  11. Thai's will blame everyone else, it's their fault,
  12. I was told there was another incident a couple of day later, although nobody drowned
  13. Survey Reveals Pollution as Thai Citizens’ Biggest Worry, The Tourist are not happy also,
  14. In my experience low season is usually ok, but not this year so far, lots of people come here for the rain by the way
  15. I think one of the areas they should look at is, Food and Drink Hygiene, I dont just mean the 5 star hotels they should go right down to street level, My own experiences I could list many, Mostly food not cooked properly and that's regular, we recently went to a restaurant and was given a beer past it's sell by date, I normally ask for a glass so I knew when I poured it, we are talking about a well known place with a few branches on the island. I have been told in the past getting Thai staff to put new stock to the back is difficult,, Taking food out of freezers and letting it defrost then putting it back is another thing that happens.
  16. Cheers, I speak to the local people, I think I have lived here longer than most of them, The lady I know down the pharmacy it's quiet, the laundry at the top of my soi said she was doing better during covid this is quiet she said,
  17. At least this time they have come up with the real story instead of the usual B/S, I can tell you here on the ground in Rawai it's dead, most mornings I go to the beach I know what it should look like to what it is now, I stopped at Amazon the other morning it was empty even the staff told me it's gone quiet since last month, Sunday morning is when we do our shopping, Makro was quiet even the carparks in Central were half empty,
  18. He only played that one league cup game, he didnt play for the first team in the league
