  1. Am I right in thinking if you get to your hotel after 6PM that needs another night in quarantine, add the fifth night and a 3rd test in a week to go with 3 nights banged up and they can kiss real tourist arrivals goodbye for now.
  2. Last time I spoke to one was 3 years ago in the UK, never speak to any here and very rarely see one. I avoid any wearing cargo shorts anyway, most of them are dickheads.
  3. He said he came here to end it all but that Thailand saved his life, sounds like an intended suicide. Being a London cabbie though it's understandable!
  4. Why come all the way here from the UK to 'end it all'? top yerself at home and save the airfare ????
  5. Quite a few to choose from, many seem to have a show with Khon and classical dance, like a bit of music but not that. Anyone been on a good one in the evening that does not have the tourist shows on? food not bothered about.
  6. How many have $1 mil in assets and $80k over 2 years? if they had why would they want to come here anyway for 10 years!
  7. soundtrack to the fake documentary the good woman of Bangkok, 1991 I think
  8. Never been on one here, as about one bike rider is killed every 30 minutes why would anyone? I know you all think you are great riders but that does not stop idiots running into you killing or crippling you. Silly, dangerous machines anywhere.
  9. I think you answered your own question, 3 pcr tests in 7 days is over the top and most tourists will not take the risk of a positive ending up in quarantine which their $50k insurance will not pay for.
  10. For some reason Japan and Korea produce some of the most talented youngsters. Himari is one of the most gifted, it does help if your parents are musicians.
  11. 3k on top of 1500 seems reasonable for transport, PCR test and meals, PCR test alone is at least 2k anywhere. You are right to say day 5 test is crazy, people just wont bother turning up for it.
  12. The Thailand pass site still has no option for test and go 1 and five day hotels and tests, looks like somebody will be on overtime this weekend Booking for 1 day on approved SHA Extra+ or AQ hotel Approved List: SHA Extra+ AQ Hotel
  13. what happens if you paid into it for years then the company goes bust just when you need them, just happened to a few companies this year already. At the level of premiums they ask for better to save it up and self insure IMO
  14. We had our car insured with them, we are meant to get a refund but not banking on it
  15. Anyone been up there for the views and glass floor, is it worth it? More to the point is it better to buy the tickets in advance on line or just turn up, is there a price difference?
  16. Same happened to me at Krungsri after giving them the tax info. Had to go back, they said they never realised I wanted the tax stopped! Also took 6 months to get the tax back after a few phone calls. They claimed I had not handed in all the paper work which was untrue. You have to persist.
  17. Not it mine, horrible, dirty, sly animals.
  18. Looks like one of our relatives homes, a lot with hording syndrome here.
  19. Most do not use agents, possibly in a place like Pattaya with it's down at heel drunks with no option
