  1. Unfortunately Makro here are not a true cash and carry like the UK was, they let anybody in. No card is required, if you do not have one they scan one of their own at the cash register
  2. No evidence that so called strong waves were to blame, by the description in the full story it is more like he had a heart attack.
  3. Truck did exactly same maneuver just in front of me when we went to Makro on Sunday morning, i explained to my wife that a guy was killed at night when a truck did exactly the same thing right here, her reply was simple, " why motorbike driver cannot see big truck"?
  4. The Strong Waves must have disappeared by the time they took that photo!
  5. Many people dismiss the answers they receive anyway because it does not align with their notion of what they think the answer should be!
  6. Thankyou, hopefully those that are randomly posting without knowing the scenario might now understand.
  7. Yet you are clearly oblivious where and in what scenario this happened.....
  8. Since when were the Oscars not a fiasco?
  9. You are obviously not local to Pattaya or Jomtien, it is not new to those of us that have lived here for many years no matter what slant you choose to believe from the Sun.
  10. Starbucks of coffee is like the McDonalds of burgers, everywhere but not that great!
  11. The sensationalist Sun again, this is nothing new, droves of Russians have been coming here for years, Na Jomtien has been an annex of Russia for a long time now!!
  12. The police will need a lot more that that before they will even think about looking into it!
  13. Sarcasm Sunday!!
  14. Why you need a rule when common sense should prevail.......oh wait.....
  15. Most buy it no problem, but at the 18ct rate not the 24ct rate.
  16. Let the more advanced "monkeys" climb the trees and you wouldn't be able to afford the coconut milk anyway!
  17. Been like this for last two weeks, why single out Wednesday?
  18. Air horns in a party atmosphere is what it is, why not start with the badly tuned smoke belching pick-ups, motorbikes with modified exhausts that you can hear for miles, baht busses peep peeping, eardrum popping advertising trucks....or is that all too simple?
  19. Yes there are some in town also down by the beach, many stand alone serviced apartments available, also Grand Garden hotel and New Kantaray hotel have serviced apartment options, lots of houses of various shapes and sizes, many rentals in a lot of the new developments around town.
  20. Great infrastructure now with the end of the 7 Motorway terminating at Ban Chang, Sukhimvit through Ban Chang all complete concrete now (just wish they would get the white lines finished), international schools, quite a lot of new restaurants in the last couple of years. Decent food options at the beaches but the beach quality can be hit or miss depending on the season, hugely popular on holiday weekends though. U Tapau airport on the doorstep set to expand in size and service, access is good now. New hotels also in the last couple of years. So many new 7/11, miniC, Tesco etc. everywhere. Robinsons is a bit of a white elephant, not the same as Robinsons in Rayong, the one in Ban Chang is a "lifestyle Centre" quite small and limited - but the Cinema is popular with the locals. Many golf courses on the doorstep. But because of all the above....land and property prices are getting a bit crazy!!
  21. Probably get around 20 deliveries a month from Lazada for the last 7 years, never had an issue. Always COD which is also never an issue.
  22. Long weekend this weekend so the Bangkok invasion will make it seem busier, last couple of weeks have been very quiet at Makro and Big C on Sukhumvit, road very quiet as well. But it does not take much traffic to make the middle of Pattaya look busy.
  23. Apparently It is illegal to leave your home in Thailand without underwear on.
