  1. One of my favorites: "Car 54 where are you"? Tutty and Mulddoon. They were the same 2 actors who were grandpa and Lurch on the Adams family. Good stuff, both shows.
  2. Been a member since 2003 (thaivisa.com) but this Aseannow site just doesn't work for me on my PC using Windows 10. (Google chrome) I get to the homepage and then anything I click on from there just goes nowhere? This has been going on for at least 6 months. Anybody know a solution?
  3. came to this thread expecting to hear from others about inexpensive, yet decent phones. Instead, I find an obvious troll post on the 2nd answer and so many fell for it. Wouldn't it be better if the admins would just delete a post like that? Or is it that they like the trolls ruining a thread like this? Or else, just learn to spot a troll? Anyway, I have a Samsung that I bought 2 1/2 years ago. Not the cheapest but it takes great pictures, has lots of memories and is quite durable. It's a Galaxy S20 I believe.
  4. Does anyone know if this is still the case and if any of the other hospitals are giving the jab here in Feb of 2023? Cost?
  5. Black Rock is pretty awesome IMO. Also the Dragon Campground in the same area. You need to walk to get to both though.
  6. If you're just one person, the Smart bus is only 100 baht and almost as quick as a cab. (if it's leaving soon) They leave every hour, on the hour. 100 baht to Talang, Surin, Kamala, Patong, Karon, Kata, Rawai. All are the same price. Great bus! Friendly drivers.
  7. I agree about Laem Prom Thep. I have a BIG friend who needed some shirts. He wanted 4X or 5X. They had up to 6X (too big for him)
  8. Simple: Because they can say what they want, anonymously. These (haters) people are most likely not like this in real life. But one of the problems with the internet world is the "hiding behind a fictitious name" Most people are good people. Especially Thais. (they ain't on here)
  9. It is the future. Here starting already. I first saw it in Sweden 3 years ago. (before covid) and was shocked and scared. But you get used to it. We still had some cash because the reindeer herders would only take cash for the boat rides, but most everywhere else was app or credit card only. So, now it's becoming mainstream in Thailand. I'm sure it'll be rough for some for a while. Sort of like smart phones. But we got used to them, didn't we? (well most of us anyway) Good luck folks. Crypto accepted everywhere is next.
  10. Just came back from a 3,500 km road trip (10 days) from Phuket to northern Thailand and many places in between. I'd say about 95% of Thai people were wearing masks everywhere we went in rural Thailand (we didn't hit any big cities and didn't stay in any cities bigger than Chumpon) But back in Phuket now, only about 70% of Thai people wearing them and about 50% of farangs. Just my observation.
  11. I believe the best ones are quite remote and it's advantageous to stay on their grounds. Is THAT what you are looking for? If so, yes, the Amanpuri is probably the highest end one. But there are so many. Some are closer to other (night) action in case you want to experience more than just high end amenities. For example the Pullman near Naithon beach is nice, as well as the Hilton in Karon. Both very nice and near good beaches.
  12. I jumped to the last page so .........this has all probably been said before. Isn't it obvious? Camera quality is MUCH better. Memory is bigger (which not only means you can take lots of pics and videos, but you can download many apps (and they work!) Longevity (quality again) More RAM (so you can do more, faster) I normally find that people who have cheap phones don't use them for much. ps Is the OP a troll?
