New Trend In Condo Advertisements
ChipButty replied to stratocaster's topic in Real Estate, Housing, House and Land Ownership
My question is would you buy a condo that didn't have a pool? Not many people use the pools we have a condo with 2, 25m pools hardly anybody there, yet the project is fairly busy judging by the amount of cars and bikes parked, It was the same when i lived in Bangkok many years ago, -

I always make sure I reply back to any revenge reviews as for smoking in the rooms I tell them when they arrive and point them to a smoking area, If you are talking about Airbnb guest you can appeal to have that review removed, I also remind guest about the law sometimes "Smoke Free Building" it's worked so far -

In Total, 64 Deaths in 4 Months From Phuket Road Accidents
ChipButty replied to webfact's topic in Phuket News
the only thing that has changed here in Phuket in the last 20+ years the roads have got wider and bigger and the invitation to go faster, so i guess speed does kill. surely there is a need for speed cameras, i can hear in the night big bikes using it as a race track down here in Rawai, That has always made me laugh when the police stop you at their road blocks, no helmet, no license fine you and let you ride off, the bike should be taken off them, the rental shops should be taken a look at, I recently spoke with a farang tourist who had rented a car without a license, not a very smart move by the rental company, -
Why do tourists go to the same 5 or 6 places
ChipButty replied to bignok's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
I recently had my daughter and her husband, baby and his parents here for holiday and we eat out for 2 weeks in Phuket and i have to say i was totally disappointed about most of the places we went to, mostly around Kata and Karon thats where they were staying, Most of these places are geared up for tourist first i noticed was the small portions they wouldn't dare serve that to Thai's, the only decent places were the farang owned places, We went to a well known restaurant here, one ordered a burger it wasn't even cooked, There is a Turkish place in Karon was pretty decent or as good as it gets when you have Burmese working in the kitchen My daughter wanted to order some pizzas one night at the hotel they wasn't even cooked. I can imagine if tourist find a couple of places they like they will feel safe -
How to deal with a card game addicted wife?
ChipButty replied to Toughsituations's topic in Marriage and Divorce
were i live it's well know where the gambling dens are and i have known a few Thai women addicted to cards, and lost a lot of money, two that come to mind both had farang husbands in the end the only way out was to get out, the one farang done one back to Australia and the other one back to England never to be seen again, one of the poo ying is still here but living in a room after living in a nice 3 bed pool villa, the farang managed to sell that, the other one her husband just bought a brand new truck and he must have put it in her name within a few months she sold it or it was taken off her to cover gambling debts, I was told she would go around renting motorbikes and then losing them to gambling, I think she had to get out of the area she owed that much money, It's not just women I knew a Thai guy who used to buy 10 to 15k baht a month on the lottery and play cards My wifes mother died and left the kids with a load of debt, thankfully the wife doesn't gamble. -
