  1. Don't know why but the boys look a bit gay at the "Boy Gaga" bar. (from that arcade/walking street, blurred by me)
  2. If you haven't been for a long time you will hardly recognize the beach now. They built a promenade all the way from police box corner to Pratamnak Soi 5. Quite nice to walk/ride. Many fit work out women in the evening jogging/exercising. It is still unchanged that many venues restaurants/bars in the area are preferred by gays. Many bars/restaurant at the "Super Town Jomtien Walking Street" a bit up from beach rd.
  3. From now to Sunday incl. there is a long holiday weekend and expected more congestion. But in normal times the connection should be fine. Where are you coming from? What day? 7 PM sounds like ThaiSmile WD46 from Suvarnabhumi. In the past they were mostly in time. But they started to produce some significant delays. Recently I was almost 1.5 hours late. Might be in your favor.
  4. (Robu was faster) Tried to find news update in German press. But no precise description. Colloquially called "K.O." drops (knock out). Likely Ketamin, Rohipnol also mentioned but this would be unusual. Women only: yes if you know that the drug is also called "date rape drug". Of course also well known in Thailand applied to males who paid a high price for the encounter (Ketamin alias Vitamin K, no taste, no smell). It's really getting worse in Berlin. "Spiking" at rave/techno parties is a "trend". Women getting a short needle injection. Believe it or not. What scumbags do this!
  5. You can get it as leafs: https://www.lazada.co.th/products/senna-leaf-i2152532254-s7180730328.html Or prepared in tea bags as in the above example. If you look for it in a shop, take a picture on the mobile.
  6. There are countless offers on the usual online sites like Lazada. Thai word for Senna plant: มะขามแขก (má-kăam kàek). Interestingly dictionaries translate it back as "Indian tamarind"(?). E.g.: https://www.lazada.co.th/products/10-i268637687-s420825012.html
  7. The app brought me up to the point where the SWIFT code etc. has to be entered. No other requirements up to that point. Whether the barrier lies behind, I don't know.
  8. 47.46 is pure petrol 95 octane. Rarely seen and used in Thailand
  9. 1) prices from 4th July. Down 4.5 or so since then 2) pure petrol/benzene almost unknown to the very most motorist. Gasohol 95 is the benchmark.
  10. Yes. You will not notice a difference after the setup for SIM1/SIM2 is done. Just checked again: youtube and a paid TV subscription work fine with 15 Mbps. Even with the DTAC signal being weak at home.
  11. Clever remark. You realize that this is about mobile internet? About the OP: I have 15 Mbps flat with DTAC and it works with youtube, Facebook/instagram, newsclips and things. Used it a whole week when on travel in Thailand. 10 Mbps is about what is needed for an average video on a mobile. BUT: how good is the reception/signal at your site? Do you live in a very densely populated area? What does the raw performance measurement say if using: speedtest.net (please save remarks about "wrong test", it's about simple test of connection with AIS) For my DTAC it shows 15.37, so throttled quite precisely. Do you have a chance to test your desired sites at a fast WiFi somewhere (cafe, shopping mall etc.) to proof that they work in general?
  12. The poorest get 50 units for free. And believe it or, many don't climb above. The rest of your babble is for the bin.
  13. Maximum. They will fiddle with the "Ft" (fuel price surcharge) but the progressive scale will not be changed. 0 - 149 units 150 - 399 units 400 and above Only the latter will peak over 5 Baht.
  14. Another day, another battlefield. So sad. Call me prejudiced but small wheels, sporty rims and a crazy color for a pickup. Do we like to do some pickup racing?
  15. At least a proof that it is no unsecure website nor being blocked intentionally. Have you checked date/time on your device as suggested?
  16. Also useless. Where do you see "Access denied"? "Isn't secure" is the keyword.
  17. Useless statement which has nothing to do with the OPs problem. Completely different item. The OP has a technical problem with his device/browser/"addon"/"security SW" whatever.
  18. Which one? Does the address start with http or https? An example could help. You use a VPN to generate another Thai IP address? Sometimes the root cause is a wrong date/time on your device. Have you checked? Click on the right arrow on top right to see more details and tell what it says.
  19. Good opportunity to prearrange a private party
  20. Opey de Place. Stayed there very often since 2004. Unfortunately they stopped filling the big fride with drinks ("mini bar"). So another walk to 7/11. Poolview room. Quiet. As high up as possible. Reasonably big pool with nice garden in the back. Never take a room overlooking the street. Blazing loud bar(s) opposite. I saw foreigners with Thai family there last week and they seemed happy. Breakfast: few steps to Soi Buakhao is "Kung's". Many comments in the forum say best English breakfast in Pattaya. I liked their homemade sausages. I am not English
  21. Always good to have economic experts at the round table ????????
