    OK, fine, when you're sick. EVERYONE has been in masks for months now and yet infections are on the rise. Clearly the masks don't work very well and there are good reasons for this.

    infections are on the rise because people didn't wear masks! Look at the photos of the cafe del mar event in Kamala .You won't see anyone wearing a mask either inside the venue of queueing up to get in .

  2. Well done City!  Great achievement! Now fingers crossed for an all England final   BTW  How  you managed to beat the great manager Pochettino. (who, remind me has won?????????). I will never know.    So Mbappe was fit enough to be on the bench  but never played a minute? I don't get that!

    The good people of Thailand need anyone that can bring in any foreign currency at this dire time of government imposed self destruction... even people like 'him', whoever people like him might be!

    Really?  People who dish Thailand at every opportunity and don't even live here! They are almost as worse as the people who live here but still moan like F@@K!

     

  4. Patong Kata Karon. are dead. Little bit of nightlife in Kamala,. The beach in Kamala as most beaches in Phuket are, is pretty much deserted. Rawai is still relatively busy but it's beach is not a patch on others. Cassia in Laguna area doing great deals if you ring them and want a base to explore Phuket . Laguna area has a few bars and restaurants open.

  5. With "Wise" it is better to transfer funds to their UK bank account from your  bank I believe there is a higher  charge for using your debit card.  They have better rates than Dee IMHO.  Dee seems to allow transfers from Thailand to other countries.

    Easy to compare "Wise" rates and charges versus your bank or other transferring apps before committing

     

    If you use this invite you get your first transfer up to £500 free

     

    FYI I get a bonus if 3 people sign up from my link I am currently donating all my bonuses to the local bowling club green renovation fund here In Phuket

  6. I use it all the time and so do all my mates

     

    used it 3 times yesterday but 2 of the transfers took a long time 

     

    I think that was a temporary blip

    If you follow the above link and sign up you get a free transfer up to £500

     

    If I send a link and 3 people sign up then I get a £75 bonus which I am currently donating to the Bowls green renovation fund here in Kamala  Phuket

     

    So, no personal gain for me and you would be helping the bowling community in Kamala out. 

     

    Cheers

  7. 'Also try sundowners and food at Vanila Sky Bar at the Cape Sienna Hotel in Kamala. It has happy hour 5-6pm. Best sunset view restaurant/bar in all of Phuket."

     

     

    This time of year the the sun goes down behind the hills behind CS>  So sunset from Cape Sienna not that good IMHO >

    It will be a lot better view from the Novotel in Kamala ,Their HH is from 6-8 I think and a lot cheaper than CS.

    Boat Bar, Smile Bar and Lillo Island on the beach great for sundowners too.

    Personally think you will be better off in Kamala for restaurants and bars than Patong. Loads of restaurants open and many doing "special offers"  

     

  8. Sorry pal (or not pal, or not paypal?) It's not a scam to recommend someone to a service and if you go back and read the OP he has Euros. So, it is quite feasible for him to set up a Transferwise account and get the Transferwise debit card posted to him (by a relative or friend) in Thailand if he still maintains a European address. Which he can then load up with baht and not be charged. Paypal fees .His choice if he follows my recommendation link or not!

  9. I get some money for recommending if 3 people sign up but it's not a scam The guy can look and choose to see if he wants to set up  and  use Transferwise and he gets a free £500 quid transfer so both parties win-win. Transferwise is mainly for people sending money toThailand and not FROM Thailand But if you get an account set up overseas you can get the debit card too.

    Most people over there have never seen this kind of immigration situations in their home country. Hence they don't realize how immigration in Thailand works. Especially Europeans have no clue, a person without papers (and illegal immigrants) over there has more rights than a person with papers and the right visa in Thailand. They don't have a clue that different countries have different laws. They believe it is (European) standard all over the world ???? 

    That's. rubbish!  if they have been stuck here since the initial amnesty (March wasn't it?) Then they have had enough time to sort out a visa or get home (with a few, and that's very few exceptions!) and surely been involved in many conversations and been able to research about what to do and what might or might not happen and what options were available. To be here since March at least they should have an idea as to how immigration work in Thailand.

    Strange one Treasure Hill, because it's a poorly designed course it beats majority\all of people up everytime but people play it because it's cheaper. Better to pay more and play a course you enjoy or skip a day

    Great layout at Treasure Hill IMVHO ! Maybe a bit too long for some people?  Certainly better than the much played Khao Kheow which (again IMVHO) is a bit "mickey mouse"

    Can't sympathise when I'm being kicked out in September.

     

    I don't hear anyone in power (or not in power) asking for tourists to stay.

     

    Maybe it can come back to life in the next decade.

    You are not being kicked out, on the contrary you have been given a free extension to stay!  You can take the necessary steps to get a visa to stay after Sept . (OK from an agent, which will cost you a few bob of course, but my feeling is wither you can't be bothered to get one or either don't have the funds or are Khee Neow.?)
