  1. (UAV) Unmanned Aerial Vehicle, hovering Thai skies surely. Witnessed on a few occasions these drones near east Cambodia boarder, they move and circle about the skies. Past May with a friend in Isan, we both watched in amazement a bright light going back, forth, up, down, at altering speeds, aimed binoculars at it, appeared to have flashing red lights, after hovering for a while with sudden change of increased speed flew directly over us (as we flipped it the bird) and disappeared into clouds. Uncertain about UAV intentions; spotting poachers, tracking wildlife, charting forest conditions or maybe surveillance, intelligence type missions. Mystified, sap son, leuk lap…

  2. Ate a delicious salami pepperoni thin crust pie at Top Cafe soi Wattipapai last month, washed it down with a many cold beers, seems to be a expat gathering there on certain days of the week Quite a trek from where I usually stay, I try to stop by this Pizza Cafe and the mini Tesco in the area there probably once a quarter.

  3. If she is saying Udon Thani area I would bet it is Suwannakhuha in Nong Bua Lamphu Province, typically ladies from Nong Bua Lamphu say they are from Udon Thani province, being Nong Bua Lamphu was established as a new Thai province in the mid 90s. Nice village areas, beautiful mountains, caves, buffalo eaters; Suwannakhuha claim to make the largest sticky rice balls in Thailand.

  4. Pulled mine out of Montessori and Mooltripakdee Brit curriculum schools felt both were overrated and way overpriced, and put them in Maryvit where English, Thai and Chinese is standard bi-lingual model study there.

  5. Purchased some off brand Power-Z made-in-Thailand running shoes at Bata 699 thb, about 6 months down the road they have been holding up pretty good. Been searching to get another pair or two in the <1000 thb price range looking around Pattaya and Bangkok, been to a many stores, seems really hard to find us13, eur48, uk12 sizes here. SuperSports at different locations seemed to have only small sizes with way over overblown prices being sold by snobby sales staff. My opinion paying more than 30 bucks for a pair of sneakers is stupidity, unless you are going to be using them for some professional athletic event. Even so barefoot encourages natural walking and running motion.

  6. Udon Thani old bus station 042221489 have air con bus to Pattaya about a 10 hour ride, was 550thb a few months back, believe they have lots, 8 or 10 departing daily.

    VIP bus, maybe check out Roong Prasert Travels 042343616 heard they operate those 20 seat VIP busses to many locations.

  7. Some interconnected info, believe departing or arriving is same same, at Mukdahan bus terminal 042611421 they used to have air con buses to Khon Kaen leaving every hour for 170thb, not sure about transferring to Udon Thani.

    Huanam hotel 042611137 have clean simple rooms 300 thb.

    Boat to Savannakhet 9am-3pm every day was 50 thb each way, dock is a two block walk from Huanam hotel.

  8. Belated fyi, was just there a day ago, easy to get to from underground MRT, station Chatuchak exit 4, short 50 meter walk down the street, huge building with red roof, well marked. Got a new blue book and 2555 sticker issued for an old car 1,600thb in about 15 mins once at counter, though on the downside waited in queue 3 hours prior to getting to the counter for service.

  9. Back to Super Car series and the great looking Thai race track girls.

    More eye candy check out

    enjoy :rolleyes:

    Pleasing to me perfume scents surpass diesel, gas and rubber smells during these Thai events. Cold beer Leo and Sing were being sold for 35thb Fri through Sun, heard it was tough getting cold ones elsewhere during Buddha lent weekend. Always a fun day out, great entertainment. Eager to get to the BangSaen beach event later in the year.

  13. not yet found in the northeast, though visiting Samui could not resist a Whoppy Sloppy triple bacon cheese, thinking whopper was like 1400 calories with 90 grams of juicy fat, no worries, continue to wash the crap out of my system with another 1500 calories of beer nutrition, 10 or 12 Changs later felt great
