  1. I transfer partial pension from HSBC UK on a monthly basis direct to SCB. Sent in £ direct via SWIFT. £5 UK transaction fee. SCB this end convert to THB at 1½% + THB200 receipt fee. Always virtually instant transaction (fastest was 17 minutes) until about 4/5 years ago when changed to overnight. Never had any problems.
  2. Dr. Bunyaporn at Bangkok Pattaya gets my vote. Excellent English and superb treatment at reasonable price
  3. First visit to Pattaya in 1977 and again in '78. Beach was wider then but cr@p gritty sand. No tourists then, not even Thai. Mass unrestricted tourism has ruined the place. Have lived happily on the Darkside for 15 years but use Hat Nam Ram in Sattahip for beach outings.
  4. I swear by Doi Chang via Lazada. Really strong go for French #5 roast. Vienna #4 slightly milder. All 100% Arabica in both bean and ground. Note : Pre-ground is fine for espresso machine or filter but not great in French press.
  5. Have always used and recommended Burda Tailor on Pattaya Tai. About 50m down from Friendship supermarket on the opposite side. Excellent quality, service, and price.
  6. Guido's on Tepprasit. August at Mabprachan.
