A group is singular, so a group was observed.

....says the man who has repeatedly judged all Thais. You really have a massive chip on your shoulder.

Yeah, it's kind of equidistant to both and really not that far. A 3-4 minute walk max, probably less - I haven't tried it, just been past it a few times. The station is pretty much directly connected to Paradise Place though (not Paradise Park) but I've never been in there so no idea if that is good or not. Hua Mark ARL couldn't really be anywhere other than where it is. It is about 200 metres to Srinakarin Road. If it was any closer it would jam up Srinakarin road as people got dropped off / picked up on the main road. Now people drive down the little street and there is a loop for dropping off and picking up. A lot of moo bans in the area have shuttle busses, lots of private vehicles doing the drop off / pick up. If all that was happening on the main road it would be a nightmare. Agree it is a bit sparse on the taxi front unless you walk to the main road. Plenty of motorbikes though. But I really don't see where else the station could have been. Also it remains to be seen if they will ever build a direct walkway between there and the Yellow Line. No sign of anything happening at the moment. Yeah, the green line connections are great. But mostly they didn't exist when it was first opened. Hopefully over time we get more of those on other lines as private businesses fund connections to their own locations (as happens on the green line I believe).

Saw it parked outside Villa Thonglor (assuming this has to be the same one). Also a couple of days later I saw a beautiful Ferrari F40 drive down Thonglor, my favourite car of all time.

Wow, that does look like a cool place.

Yes, I know. They also fly to about 20 other destinations around the region where they don't own the airport.

It's not a monopoly by any definition of the word. It doesn't only fly to Samui you know.

Why? What is wrong in the criteria of the World Airline Awards?

I recently made a thread with questions about import duties for hand carrying a wood fired pizza oven and 20kg of oak pellets back from the UK. Got some good info and I carried it back with no issues. Some people were interested in the oven and asked me to post a review once I'd used it, so here it is. @richard_smith237 It's a brilliant bit of kit. So nicely engineered, easy to put together (took one minute), easy to use. It gets to around 450 celcius in 15 minutes or so and cooks the pizza in 60 seconds. I had to cure it for 30 minutes the first time (just burn wood in there at maximum temp) then it was ready to use. The very first pizza I cooked in there burnt as I put it in and came back 90 seconds later to check - too late; the second was great. The heat is so intense that 10-15 seconds is the difference between being underdone, perfect, and burnt - literally - so you have to be vigilant. The taste is amazing, the texture is amazing. The machine needs no looking after other than cleaning soot out of the chimney. I just fired it up for the second time tonight. Honestly better than most pizzas I've ever ordered, but definitely room for improvement still. So my review is it is well worth it. Needs a learning curve as to how to cook at such high heat (how thick should your base be, how sloppy your toppings can be, how devoted you need to be about watching it cook and turning it around and removing it in time), but overall it is 10/10. If you were thinking of getting one I recommend it. I should point out I have absolutely no affiliation with the company, they don't even ship to Thailand, but I had wanted one for a while, I had a trip to the UK booked so I ordered one to be delivered there then carried it back. https://ooni.com/collections/ovens/products/ooni-fyra Some pictures from today.
