Is not worth make a report to local PS?

The police will need a lot more that that before they will even think about looking into it!

SHAME on you for going 132 and endangering the lives of people living in Thailand.

 

What horrible behavior and really makes expats look horrible.

 

You seem so proud of riding dangerously and "getting away" with your behavior when compared with back home.   Horrible in a million ways, and you will never learn.   

Sarcasm Sunday!!

Why you need a rule when common sense should prevail.......oh wait.....

Most buy it no problem, but at the 18ct rate not the 24ct rate.

Burn map from 6 days ago!!

Let the more advanced "monkeys" climb the trees and you wouldn't be able to afford the coconut milk anyway!

Been like this for last two weeks, why single out Wednesday?

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?

Interesting topic for many expats, who had enough of the horrible traffic in Pattaya, and wish to stay in a quieter area.

 

How about condos and apartments for rent?

Any advice?

 

 

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.

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!!

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. 

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.

No, i am from UK and my one starts 6217.

The Chinese clean up was all widely predicted when Covid was causing the demise of many hotels.

How terrible. I guess the vehicles waiting to turn were blocking the right hand lane of the carriageway and the HGV driver didn't even notice that they were stationary?

 

Astonishing that no-one died outright. ????????

Watching movies on your phone has that effect of not being able to see anything else in front of you!

Not only for baked beans, but it seems the worldwide shortage of cornstarch is a key factor in many food products not being available or if they are available there is a huge price increase. Google is your friend!

I bow to your superior knowledge. Can you find out the price of HP beans. TIA.

Unfortunately none on the last shipment, i think most that were holding stock have now sold out.

So they should be cheaper than the UK price if they come from China.

But the ones you get here are imported from the UK not China
