  1. They have a western food store attached to it. Which "western food store" is "attached to" Big C supermarkets?
  2. Huh? What is "farang" about the Thai supermarket, Big C?
  3. Yes, very irritating but that's not how retail works. Generally, items are moved around in the stores in order that customers see more of what is available and buy things that they wouldn't normally have bought because they wouldn't see them if they remain in the same location all the time. My local 7-11 has just rearranged half the stock on it's shelves, happens all the time.
  4. Thailand has the worst driving record in the world and you come out with such nonsense, Point out what was factually incorrect in my post that you quoted there, then. Around 99.95% of the Thai population do not have problems on the roads.
  5. Joke mate, although the majority of flying accidents are in the general aviation sector. No, it clearly was not intended as a joke until you were called out on it, it was another lie.
  6. Read the post before you reply Oh, I did. How about reading my post that you quoted here before you reply and answer my question?
  7. I'm glad. I decided not to risk it on my own at the manic, overcrowded Bangkok office that I have to use.
  8. A RC from Pattaya would be a one month cert from Immigration, he said he got his from the UK Embassy (even though, according to the .gov website, they apparently do not issue them) but when they did issue them they were stated as being valid for one year, as I remember.
  9. Not sure if that is actually the case. You may have got away with it but, as you didn't know that at the time of your visit and had your UK licence with you that they must have seen, I'd say that a proper UK licence is normally necessary and just turning up with an IDP wouldn't be enough.
  10. I've used one, twice, there's the reassurance of the "hand-holding" and a guarantee that there'll be no issues with any language issues for applicants whose Thai isn't as good as it should be.
  11. The Asia Hotel in Soi Pratumnak 4, as mentioned in the thread.
  12. Doesn't he have a usufruct on it til the day he dies? You think that enables him to kick out the woman who owns the property and the land that it is built on?
  13. Yes Well, "yes", depending on what the landlord wants, there are no laws about it. Two months deposit plus one months rent is perfectly normal, as my good pal Worgeordie confirmed.
  14. And it would have to be firsthand knowledge to know the financial situation of a private company! Wait a bit, though, the owners are contemplating re-listing through an IPO.
  15. Bear in mind, more importantly, that is incorrect, BIG C is owned by TCC Holding and Lotus's is owned by the CP Group.
  16. "...the open chillers were not very cold..." Not exactly worthy of a reply. What temperature were they and what temp did you want them to be? Did you write the email in Thai?
  17. Are you quoting US requirements?! The same US that has a worse, overall, air safety record than Thailand?
  18. Sounds reasonable for 3 persons at international rates. The fare that I posted is per person, maximum of two people. The fare that he quoted, although taken from the website, is not correct.
