  1. And you just experience the prelude for the NYE party madness with complete traffic gridlock.
  2. Sounds like a report from upcountry village 😁
  3. Had good experiences with Tom Taxi service from Suvarnabhumi to Pattaya and return. 1000 Baht and proper limousines. https://www.tomtaxiservice.com/
  4. Interfering in a dispute between a Thai and his girlfriend?? Both unknown to the Japanese? How crazy is that!
  5. Once but never again will I mix in to that chaos. A good 12 hours to Pattaya 560 km. I study the holiday/ long weekend calendar carefully and don't fall for the idea that on the 2nd day traffic will not be that bad😖
  6. Quite likely the email address I used there had been leaked or intentionally registered at most terrible porn sites. Got hundreds of spam mails and had to give up the address.
  7. I was there for some years. Larry even promoted me to upper level. But that morning when the German language part had been removed with complete loss of ALL content there (big scandal about underage talk) the downturn started. Can't remember when it was finally dead. The hotel/bar business seem to have closed also. Larry is "retired" as he said in some YouTube video.
  8. Good for YOU (and me). But you think the endless stream of complaints and frustration with the system are fabricated ?? I have a mate whom I tried to help with no success. He repeatedly asked at the immi office what is wrong. No clue at all. "It's Bangkok problem" was about all he got.
  9. I assume you refer to scooters (automatic)? There is little concern about repair mechanical / motor stuff. As above: any Honda. Granddaughter has a 160ccm Honda PCX(?). If possible I would avoid electronic gadget stuff like keyless. Where do you live that you are concerned about repair? Granddaughters Honda 160ccm: Tubeless tires seem to be the norm for bigger ones.
  10. Never rely on directly involved witnesses. They lie in most cases. Happened to me and not in Thailand. Could have been anything. Hope CCTV will help to find the facts.
  11. Braindead driving on opposite direction. Saving a few hundred meters risking/loosing life. The road is a good four lane divided highway. I drove there often. But reckless driver manage a head on collision.
  12. Highway 1 and 2 up to the northeast yesterday about 11 AM: (times are for some trip from Rayong)
  13. ? In Thailand from 50. For years I used 800k+ at Khon Kaen. Then 2023 I used income statement from consulate (still available for me). Last time (Oct 2024) I used the 12x transfer method with account statements. Not a single question about source asked although I have pension notice at hand. But the transfer method makes me independent from consulate and frees the 800k.
  14. Until some years ago I would tell everybody how safe Thailand is. You can walk every street in the dark even in Pattaya. I would be much more reserved nowadays.
  15. May I be the first to celebrate 😖
  16. Yes a Russian in Pattaya loved Christmas so much. Complete off-topic: read about such a case in Germany on a super sports car. New TikTok trend?
  17. Sorry for the stupid question. Just reread the title 😁 If your mail allows to see the details of the sender address before opening then this is usually a quite strong indicator.
  18. By email? Check the sender address (not what is displayed by the mail client). You opened the WISE app on the phone and see no problem. So obviously spam/fishing.
  19. Good to see the CNG cylinders unharmed. That would give a hell of a fire
  20. Careless pickup driver with limited visual and brain features. Click Rider at warp speed. Deadly encounter. If all such events would be reported here it would fill a subforum.
  21. Not seen or heard of in 13 years. Mass testing is done at entertainment values, checkpoints. But a whole village...
  22. Bought a new TV. 4k Smart 4k is interesting. Smart YouTube forget it. 20 sec Thai language screaming about cream. No thanks. Notebook connect and all good.
  23. As long as I can watch ad free with Brave browser and download everything with WinX Youtube Downloader I don't care.
