Yep, it's pretty poor these days.

They definitely have an attitude. On a review complaining about being aggressively dealt with on check out for using a tiny bottle of mosquito repellant their reply was: Unfortunately, some guests don't always follow hotel policy, despite being brief upon check in and also during your room orientation, and this is the reason why we have management team to make the guests abide by the rules. It's a shame that you found the policy and procedure not to your liking. We respect your opinion, and we wish you luck travelling around with the same mindset. Not a good attitude. Even if the guest was in the wrong why post such an arrogant reply?

Absolute nonsense. He is clearly in business class in the picture - no way does he want to sit in a cramped AA flight for 4.5 hours, why would he? He's good at publicity stunts, this is just another one.

I just completed this quiz. My Score 40/100 My Time 45 seconds  

I just checked in Villa Thonglor - no Liptons. But as others have said it really is the most insipid "tea" you could ever have. I brought back about 1,000 Yorkshire tea bags on a recent UK visit. Villa did have Wispa bars though which I have never noticed before. Delicious!!

Are you OK?

My advice to you, stop getting triggered by emoticons - I assume you are a grown man. I also suggest not looking for the negative in everything here, maybe you'll even get a smiley emoji which you can tell your mum about.

What a bundle of joy you are.

You've got to start somewhere. A few decades ago Thais couldn't build cars or electronics.

Honestly, I have no idea, but don't think snakes will chase you down in general. Same. Must be close to ten years since I went. This thread reminded me of it so fancy a refresher myself.

I would have that the other way round.

No, it won't. Slightly off topic but if anyone is interested in snakes you should go to the Red Cross Snake Farm in Bangkok - it is excellent. Or the Queen Saovabha Memorial Institute to give it its proper name. They produce all the anti-venom for Thailand there and once a day they have an excellent and really informative show with all kinds of snakes including king cobras. They also have venom milking demonstrations. It's not your typical tourist trap but genuinely informative. Highly recommended if you are in Bangkok and have any interest in learning about the snakes here. https://www.tripadvisor.com/Attraction_Review-g293916-d456221-Reviews-Snake_Farm_Queen_Saovabha_Memorial_Institute-Bangkok.html And because it is the red cross it is not set up to make money like other shake shows in tourist areas, but all money goes towards supporting their operations and making anti venom, saving lives.

Why?

No, you're wrong. I am no fan of this puppet government but it's a good policy. They have started with the lines they can control: Red Line is SRT owned (state enterprise), the Purple Line is run by the MRTA (state enterprise). Also consider purple and red lines were under used so capacity is not a problem. All other lines are currently privately owned and run and as such the government can not impose fares other than what was stipulated in their contracts. Hopefully one day they can sort out agreeable compensation with those private enterprises and have a flat 20 baht across the whole network. It's a good start.

Sorry to hear that.

I've been on one like that in London. And indeed it had to terminate before London Bridge as it couldn't go under.

It's called humour.And irony.

I agree with Richard. Sai Keaw Beach Resort is great. Nice rooms, good pools, right on the nicest sandy beach, plenty of restaurants right on your doorstep. From your description of what you're looking for I don't think you can go wrong with it.

Yes, eight years ago.

That was two weeks ago.

Yeah, if only we were all still crammed into ancient Don Muaeng then riverside communities would be safe!

Sorry, that is nonsense, you have no idea what you're talking about.

Yeah I'm sure that's it, well done.

Eminem loathes himself? Really?? Have you ever tried writing a few sentences without using your book of right wing cliches? Like actually use grown up words that you think of yourself? What doe "self loathing Liberal" even mean?

I know we saw a few weeks ago that the Ford CEO and his CFO spent time in China driving Chinese EVs and said they were way ahead of Ford and posed an "existential threat". Now it's been revealed that he had a Xiaomi SU7 shipped to Chicago. He has been driving it for the last six months and says he "doesn't want to give it up". Yet all the Trumpers on here still call them "Chinese junk" etc. Sad really, such closed ignorant minds. https://www.businessinsider.com/ford-ceo-driving-xiaomi-su7-electric-vehicles-ev-2024-10
