Very nasty for him.

Nasty. But if you have a company you are required to file tax returns. Did he lose the house or brown envelope his way out of it.?

When I first came I was told that buying a property through a company with Thai nominee directors was illegal but common practice. Nobody had been prosecuted or lost the property. That was close to thirty years ago and there have been periodic scares about a crackdown but I am unaware of many if any problems.

You surprise me guv, anyone who's been here more than five minutes knows that if the area is not specified it will be Sukhumvit.

It would have been better to ask him to specify the multiple ways and then to answer them one by one. The problem is he might just be right.

That makes two of you.

It's worn in a bit, I remember when it first opened I hated the place. The exact opposite of what I thought a Bangkok bar should be, my places were Jools, the Bus Stop, the Madrid and the Crown Royal. Like I say the place has improved with age while Jools and the Madrid are no longer.

Is that happy hour price or normal price.?

Best of luck to you and them, they will very likely soon be the big club that we've always been told they are. The reality is that the Carabao and the 2 lesser European competitions are only really important to whoever wins them The important thing in England is to be top 4 or possibly 5 in the Premier, which you should be this season and if not then almost certainly will be next year.

(UK) many decades ago a cat food TV advert featured this cat because he dipped his paw in the food and ate off that. This I was told was very unusual behaviour. Now cat sitting for my wife's niece one of her cats does likewise but with the water (don't know about the food). Anyone know if this is fairly normal behaviour or unusual. As I've never spent a lot of time amongst cats, I don't know the answer. And no I am not going to go round advertising agencies flogging the idea, just curiosity on my part. Plus being a retired old git with little to occupy my mind.

Possibly spelling it High so instead of Hi-So is what put her off. Doesn't mean you won't get another chance, give it another go.

Irony not your thing ph.?

I had radiotherapy middle of last year for throat cancer. It seems to have done the job but my throat is still recovering and the misses worries about the Bangkok air pollution so wearing one keeps her happy and might save me a problem.

Not into irony then Gotters.

What is your definition of low alcohol and which American beers do you have in mind.

Perish the thought, but it's funny at one time they were Roman Catholics now it's always devout Catholics. Don't suppose they're that bothered.

But the Irish (not sure if they were actually called Irish then) were into slavery quite early on ask your mate Patrick. Did they really not do a bit of rape and pillage while they were at it.?

Harry when you've got nothing worth saying it's best just to say nothing.

Visa on arrival has never applied to British passports (in the last 30 years anyway). Anything else you care to be wrong about.

Was never scammed in Jools, and never experienced what you describe in the Bus Stop bar, The Tavern or Chequers, or any other place there I've occasionally been to. Not been for over 6 months due to bad health but feeling ready again now.

I think he meant the Soi not Nana Plaza.

That's three people on this thread whose total knowledge of bars around Soi 4 comes from reading posts by others who've never been there.

Can the mods please close the thread, and thanks to everyone for their sensible and constructive replies.

If anyone has seen the article and/or can tell me where to find it I would be obliged.

I saw a headline either Earthquake Drunk Syndrome or Condo Drunk Syndrome and I cannot now find the article. My wife is complaining of anxiety, feeling dizzy and feeling that she is walking unsteadily, is this what the headline refers to.? I expect it to go away in a few days but does anyone else have experience of this. She would also like to leave the condo and move to the country pile up in the Nakhon.
