sounds like a plan. IMO in the order of KK, UT, NK. then you can spend any spare days in NK, and get the grit of KK out of your hair.

mukdahan and nong khai have good waterfront bars and restos. ubon has a beach with eateries by a river beach. khon kaen too big and built up for my liking, but still a great plave to visit passing from korat to udon. all have markets, 7/11's, bars, music, and 'other' types of entertainment not disimilar to that found in pattaya phuket etc. all easy doable on local buses between them. have yourself a little adventure.

and... @Iamfalang.... where do you live....?

they're all much a 'same same but different'. all have things to do and see, most have an expat scene of sorts. why not visit them all and give us a report and mark yourself each out of 10...

if it really rattled your cage, and are concerned for the future business model of the resto, you should offer a business consultation with the management. i'm sure Deano would love to meet you. btw, how much do you think a fair price for your time would be for the consultation? 30B?

20 years ago and when in perfect health, don't really care. but now, the ones which contribute (personally) to my appearance... 1. skin 2.liver 3.kidney(s) if these weaken, you will look like... Another chang anyone...?

here... i wish you all the best of luck. sucks that she's in the uk though.

if you are in england, find a local solicitor who deals in family matters. a quick google should point you in the right direction. a consultation will cost around 140 notes, and could be the best 140 nicker you've spent for a while. you may need some advice from an online thai lawyer as well, probably cost around 5000 baht, for advice only, there is a pinned topic on this forum.. somewhere. search for 'thai law' on the search bar... if you can't find it let us know and i'll have a lookie for the link. the england solicitor should be your first step though, they'll need your wives name, maybe ID to check there's no conlict of interest.

does anyone local to Pattaya know if the Siam Legal offices are still just off 3rd road near the Pattaya South junction where the LK apartments are, or have they moved? a 'friend' claims to not be able to find their office there....????
