  1. That has been the usual practice for as long as I've been here....having said that....I did manage to do the ship four of the aircraft carrier as part of my Rotary Club function....got a lot of strange stares from the locals at the White man on board....?

  2. I get great customer service at TMB (Thai Military Bank). And, like Bangkok Bank, TMB has an international branch -- only instead of New York, it's in the Cayman Islands. Hey, I wonder if that is where all the bonus money went from that Thai aircraft carrier that has no airplanes. Maybe it will receive the retirement bounty from the submarine purchase. Anyway, handy to have that Cayman Islands account for the unusually big money that sometimes comes to those who fight corruption.

    I also very much like TMB's "no fee account." I can transfer money anywhere in the country with no fees.

    I was a guest on that aircraft carrier not long ago....they have a few toy ones for sale and the officer's lounge...aka a bar was outfitted to the max so things aren't as bad as they seem...??

  3. Just try living here for an extended period of time and the shine quickly comes off the apple...?

    When I first arrived the motto of the town was "The Town That Never Sleeps!" I've changed it to "The Town Where Everyone Thinks They Are More Important Than They Actually Are!"

    And do not forget...."Alcohol gives you infinite patience for stupidity". I see it on a daily basis, sorry to say. ????

  4. Wow, not on my watch....try Made in Thailand Soi or New Plaza. Soi or even Toy Bar up near Kiss Restaurant near Mike's Shopping Mall any day around the 4 AM hour.....all the spots are jumping....and all the action seems to be on 3rd Road these days with the Thai folks....all the new clubs are packed out 8 days a week until the early hours of the morning....?

  5. Some new Bars and restaurants opened, Indian on 2ng Road, another Scooter Bar in LK Metro and the Elephant Bar next to the Dragon Bar in Soi Bulkhao being reopened, The Pook Bar also had a name change and a big refurbishment. Some people must be thinking it's going to 'pick up' again.

    Elephant Bar will be shut in a few months.....no need for another bar on Soi Buakhao....someone is looking to blow their wad on another good deal...?
