Yes, my (Thai) wife and everyone in her extended family have the same view.

I joined in Pattaya Expats club (life membership 800 baht) early 2006 when they used to have a Sunday morning meeting at a large hotel - can't remember the name - opposite/ just down from the Twin Palms resort on 2nd Road (between Pattaya Klang and Pattaya Nua). They had a good buffet breakfast and the best talks - on the subject of visas - were provided by Darrel (R.I.P.). The other talks were totally forgettable. When they moved the meetings from that hotel, I lost track. I joined their forum a couple of years ago, but there is too much badmouthing and verbal abuse on there, so I left; basically, a lot of major saddos.

Anyone know where to get cans of hummus (hummus tahina) in Pattaya; I was buying it in Friendship up until about a year ago, but they no longer stock it?

Your question just reminded me of a song the Prathom 6 Thai female teachers used to teach the "students" - when I worked as an English "teacher" (TIC) many years ago: "Where are you come from; where do you go"?

Answer: No.

You ask too many quest-i-ons.

The Pattaya Expats Club forum.

Fair comment.

Sounds about right to me.

Head for the hills.

ONE CARAFE OF ICED TEA (duh)...

I went for lunch in my usual Santa fe "steak" restaurant the other day. I have been going there for years, get an annual discount card (199 baht) which gives you a couple of free meals plus 10% off ever bill for the next year. I sat down at a single table and waited for the menu. When I chose my meal, the waitress came to take the order. I ordered a spinach soup, a fish & chips and salad meal and - being as I was thirsty - a carafe of iced tea (carafe = 89 baht which gives about 3 glasses, as opposed to a glass of iced tea @ 49 baht). All was going fine until the waitress said: "One" (after I ordered the carafe of iced tea). So, you tell me, IS IT ME???

Thanks for the history lesson; I'm get back to it in time... then again...
