AMFWolfie Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 I think as in the UK, there is a massive difference in going to the pub for a beer with, or meeting some mates enjoying social interaction/bantering or going to a club with the sole intention of getting wasted, meeting members of the opposite sex and parting to the early hours. Possibly do less of the latter the older we get but the risks of contracting colds, flu or Covid will be far less in an outside open bar than an enclosed club with sealed aircon. That's proven fact not guesswork so surely a soft opening as they did in the UK would be the way forward. Easy to monitor and regulate and to be fair, would satisfy a very large majority or ex-pats and tourists alike especially if it meant there was more likelihood of everything remaining open until Covid was under control enough to open the night clubs... One of the biggest concerns to most of the bar owners still forced to pay the draconian Key money upfront just so they can open the bar, only to find it all shutdown again in a month or two.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dickp Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 (edited) I do not see many true tourists coming if the Puds and Bars along with night life are not open. My Daughter and Husband what to come to see us as we 78 and not in good health. But if they were true tourists they would be going to some place else that's for sure.

Chad3000 Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 A lot of people don't need the bar drama. In fact, if that's where you're looking for your next date you're a dinosaur. I could easily enjoy weeks, months on end with my wife or if not married even alone puttering about the Andaman camping and snorkeling. Pack a couple of liters of scotch with the kit and yer good to go. It's the CoE, tests, paperwork, blah blah blah I object to. Bars lol. Loserville. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post AllanB Posted October 13, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 13, 2021 I have been away from Thailand since July 2020 and all I hear is "shutdown" "lockdown" "come to Thailand, then go away", "we will be welcoming tourist soon, bugga off farangs, but welcome Chinese" I have no intentions of coming back until I am welcome regardless of vaxx status, tests or "yes" one minute "no" the next. I really don't want the stress of jumping through different hoops depending on which scientist says what. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
