  1. Nice brochure. But somehow I just dont see teams of multinational lawyers bothering to try and get compensation for an incorrectly valued Pattaya condo, even assuming that there was any negligence involved in the first place.

    Personally I put lawyers in the same bucket as real estate agents and financial advisers. The less I see of them the happier (and richer) I am.

    Same ++

  2. China town in BKK, you get window price with no extra charges on 10 baht bars and up

    Would extra charges be considered a commission? On a ten baht ingot what would be a fair extra charge?

  3. There is a shop on Sukhumvit, between central and south pattaya in the building that also has the Mc Donalds, which has a sign with gold bullions outside.

    Anyone any idea what that shop is ?

    Is there a gold store in the festival mall on beach road?

  4. I received a notice via Facebook that the Acorn Pub is closing tonight ie out of business.

    Sent from my Samsung Galaxy Note 3

    High season and can't make it. Things must really be bad.

  5. You can walk into Big C, or Tesco or HomePro and see promotion prices every day.

    Thank you for reply. I purchased one today on promotion at Big C extra 3,500bt

  6. The last couple of years I have done the barbecue buffet on the third floor of Central.

    It was a good place to watch the fireworks.

    Maybe it was 1300 baht per head i think?

    What time does Central close? Fire works 12 o'clock?

  7. I think that I've seen cottage cheese at Best Supermarket at the Dolphin Round-about in North Pattaya. Would think that Foodland as well as Villa Market would have it as well.

    Good luck.

    Roger that, Roger. I've seen it in Best too. Cottage cheese that is. No idea what Quark is. Like Quorn?

    friendship has.

  8. Yeah, my impression is that they are buying the latex pillows to bring home, that they see them as very cheap here. That's understandable but they must really LOVE those latex pillows! I've had good access to latex pillows for as long as I can remember and never felt tempted.

    They specifically need the feel of the latex when performing the very private and personal (to them) mating ritual,in Russia its normally too cold for most of the year this is why they are flocking here to take advantage of the heat-and the latex of course.

    Don't they have Goose down.

  9. WE have such a good dentist when living in bkk, we still make the trip there. child is 4 yo. have had the whole gamut from anathesia to replacement teeth and "papoose" restraint fillings.

    pm me if you think it worth while.

    Thank you for the response. I believe the tv rules allow you to give the name of the dentist and information which would be helpful to all tv members.
  10. Gil here. Anybody have ideas on how to increase deliveries in east Pattaya? Flyers is hard. Time consuming.

    What about putting ads in local Pattaya newspapers - both Falang (Pattaya Times, Pattaya People, etc.) and Thai (your wife can help with those)?

    Buy a bar and sell beer.
  11. Not my idea of a good meal but surely they have been doing this for a long time now?

    As for "of course they add 10% service and 7% VAT", there is no "of course" about it as far as I know. The Hilton's prices are always all-inclusive of service and VAT and to do anything else is just a rip-off as far as I'm concerned, designed to make the prices appear lower than they really are.

    You cant avoid paying the service and VAT so they should be included in the advertised price.

    Agree. The ribs are outstanding. I had the rib special and a pint of Guiness[260bt] and with a 15% discount the bill came to 570bt. If I have known about the ++ I would passed.

  12. First stop is Pattaya City hall, explain to them what you are doing and where and then depending on the location of your business you will either get licenses there, or Banglamung or to a place just other side of Sukhumvit if you are in Nongprue (it is up a narrow soi just before you come to Soi Wat Thamsamakee if you are heading south on Sukhumvit)

    All quite painless once you are in the right office.

    You get separate licenses for just about everything but the are seldom over 50 baht each, selling food, selling Thai cigarettes, Selling imported cigarettes, selling Thai whisky, Selling imported whisky, selling Thai beer, selling imported beer etc etc, you get the picture

    When you get the licenses best to get them framed or laminated and hang them in a visible location on your premises - saves a lot of grief should you get a "visit".

    It amazes me the ammount of people that try to do without, especially when it is cheap and easy, then complain when they fall foul!!

    The police will let you sell on the street for a price[tea money]
  13. Bangkok pattaya hospital say that the only thing that will keep them away is if the product has Deet in it

    OFF does have it and is very effective as Lenny says

    the ''smooth and dry '' version is easier to live with in my opinion

    Skin armor soap contains deet.
  14. With the high rate of dunge fever looking for a good mosquito product for protection from mosquito bites. Read about Skin Armor anti-mosquito soap. This might be a good and not harmful product for young children. Has anyone seen this item in pattaya? Thanks in advance for any helpful news.
