  1. Rolled porridge oats with Soy milk, strawberries, black grapes and half a banana.
  2. Easy don't ever go back, tell all your mates about them and if they're on Tripadvisor then give them a negative review.
  3. Use an agent 100 Baht, just give them your passport and pick it up the following day, I did it last week,saves all the hassle of going down there.
  4. Few years back I got bitten by a dog so I went to Pattaya City Hospital for rabies jabs . I needed a course of 4 injections spaced over a period of about a month if I remember correctly, anyway each jab I had in Pattaya was 500 Baht. I happened to be in Buriram when the 3rd jab was due so I went along to the government hospital there and the charge was 20 Baht. Go figure.
  5. I paid 500 Baht a couple of years ago in Pattaya. This was at a small dentist opposite the Friendship supermarket on the south Pattaya Rd.
  6. I've had accounts with Kasikorn going back to 1990 when it was Thai Farmers Bank and to date I haven't received any e mails about this, I'm not a US citizen. I reclaimed some tax back around 25 years ago from the interest I paid and had to get a tax number. This is 10 digits, can anyone confirm that this would be the TIN number ?
  7. Soi 6 is extremely family friendly.
  8. None really,very poor choice and well overpriced compared to neighbouring countries. Back in the day I used to enjoy a Singha Gold but it hasn't been available for years now.
  9. It certainly didn't help the currency exchange rate, £ dropped like a stone after the vote to leave, it has never recovered to pre Brexit levels.
  10. Rory Gallagher was very underrated in my opinion, a far better guitarist than most and also the Icicle Works, a great 80s band from Liverpool.
  11. It was even better in the 80s when it wasn't called walking street.
  12. I've never been asked for a 12 month statement, just copies of the pages from the previous 12 months of my bank book. This was at Jomtien Immigration.
  13. Sorry should be Kalasin
  14. Does anybody know if there are busses that go from Korat to Karasin and roughly what the journey time is. ? I've been trawling the internet and can only find busses that go via Udon that take over 9 hours.
  15. I did it this week and was rejected, I resubmitted it and lo and behold it was accepted. This is the third time this has happened to me , every time after I resubmitted the application it was accepted.
  16. I heard a story of 3 Indians negotiating for a 1 hour massage, they wanted 20 minutes each.
  17. Because that comes under the heading of 'Logic'.
  18. A lot of them don't stay slim, I came here for the first time back in the 80s and it was rare to see any thai people that were overweight. Back then though there was very few fast food outlets, now they're everywhere. These days a lot of thai's have a craving for these sugar laden drinks that most coffee outlets sell.
  19. Born and raised in Manchester so my accent is distinctly Manc despite being over here for many years.
  20. Don't pretend to know what this was all about or who was to blame , in my many years here I've only ever seen a Thai male fight one on one when it's involved a female.
  21. From memory it wasn't far from there.
  22. I've seen hookers many times along Jomtien Beach Rd, in fact not too long ago one of them showed me a video on her mobile of the type of services that was on offer.
  23. I'm not saying that the American/European lifestlye is a healthy role model, far from it, I thought the topic was about Thais.
  24. Eat a balanced diet and exercise regularly to keep an healthy weight, many Thais do neither. I've seen them hop on Baht buses to travel walkable distances (200/300 metres) on many occasions.
