These new PVC chairs are not at all adapted to Thai people and not adapted at Pattaya beach were people used to meet on the small wooden chairs around a small table for a drink.

Stefanix Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Quote Many had fallen out of them and it was only the softness of the stand that prevented injury. OMG, tourists could get seriously hurt by falling 20 cm! Fortunately the soft sand prevents this from becoming a humanitarian catastrophe! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best thing about fat Americans is they usually don't go to the beach and they don't wear speedos where fat slobs in Europe usually do. Most American beaches have no beach chairs for rent that's why they look nice. Florida like Miami Beach does have them but most people there are hot and sexy.

juice777 Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 So if I am to understand this Chang have given them free chairs but they are charging us 60THB more. And how are the Thais going to have a feast with 10 people and loads of food and whisky in sun beds. Why can't we just choose a chair or a bed.

StefanBBK Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 I do like the new chairs. They are pretty much standard sun loungers. I am also happy to see clean and new umbrellas. Looks much better than the old ones. Unfortunately Pattaya beach is not attractive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elgenon Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 If the chairs are not stable in sand i would think it would be easy to topple. It's not a joke to expectantly fall over. Question: Were the old beach chairs made of canvas or nylon webbing? It looks like these have a solid plastic cushion. Not something I would want to be associated with on a hot day. It could cause you to sweat and be very uncomfortable or, if exposed to sun, it could burn you or at least be quite hot. They needed someone with beach lounging experience to consult. I would assume the people making the decisions had little experience in this realm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's been a lot of impersonators infiltrating Pattaya lately. I think some might be Poms, you know how they keep sending their no gooders to us, started a couple of hundred years ago and they haven't stopped. So now they come here, call themselves Ozzies in an attempt to conceal their nationalities and besmirch out good name. You should be proud of your true heritage.

Nielsk Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 A load of nonsense... We have these sunbeds and parasols on my beach. The best You can have. " And the cushions actually retain heat making a beach lie down something akin to a wartime torture." Yes, of course, you bring a big towel to put on your sunbed. What's the problem. Given the parasols, it is the same size as always. Just get some more... O.M.G. ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
