I bought one from Lazada last year, about 2,500 Baht and it looked very comfortable in the photos. It arrived from China and turned out to be a complete piece of excrement. Very cheaply made, plastic instead of fabric, and the wrong colour. Thank Buddha for that last one as it gave me the excuse to return it and get a full refund. I'll never buy a chair again online, you really need to see them in person and try them out before buying.

Everything's going to be fine. They've given the cops a nice, humble wai, so a 500 Baht fine and a warning not to be naughty again and they'll be off.

What amazes me is that this guy isn't in the next cell in The Hague to Duterte.

If you've got a reasonably modern infotainment system in your car then you can always go to the radio station live website on your phone: https://alwayspattaya.com/radiochannel/fabulous-103-fm/ and play it on your car's speakers. As 103 FM has a limited range, when I'm driving further away than Nong Nuch or Laem Chabang that's what I usually do. Of course, you can play almost any radio station that way, but I find keeping up with the Pattaya news and the same old music as always is kind of comforting when I'm driving in Isaan or Surat Thani.

103 FM was very much on the air between 11:00 and 13:00 today when I was driving around the area.

The village where I've lived for the last 14 years has had a number of foreign Chairmen of the HOA. I know them all well and none of them has ever had a work permit simply to act as Chairman of the HOA. One of them, though, did like to do various jobs around the village himself, partly for exercise, but he was advised by several owners and, I think, the Juristic Person, that he should not do things like painting or gardening in the public spaces as they do require a work permit.

We all know what he means.... lol

I haven't tried it since the times BC (Before Covid, lol), but using 004 instead of 001 as the international access code gave a cheaper rate with AIS 1-2-Call. The downside was that the call quality was poorer. Someone told me it still works, so it may be worth a try?

It sounds like half of Pattaya attended this long meeting, presumably including some people with actual powers to sort things out, yet nothing happened. Why? Was it a case of the officials seeing who could come up with the best offer, but none of it was enough for them, Thai officialdom at its finest?

Didn't the Thai government at the time spend several hundred billion Baht on the rice pledging scheme? That's why Loong Tu staged his coup in 2014, he fancied getting his mitts on some of that lovely lolly wanted to save the country from imminent bankruptcy, lol. So why fine her a mere 10 billion Baht, surely a hundred billion Baht would be more appropriate?

What a loser! He can't even afford a proper mankini, lol!

From their FB page, it just says they're sorry they're closed for one day today, no reason given, open again tomorrow.

Along Jomtien and Dongtan beaches there are plenty of shops across the road that offer you a shower for 15 or 20 Baht. Pattaya beach may have the same thing but I seldom go there these days.

She probably read that Keir Starmer is giving away fishing rights, so she thought she'd ask for a few million tons of mackerel every year, lol

Don;t worry so much, have a look at this topic:
