My favourite bars are closed, the restaurants I would like a glass of wine in are not serving. Grant you a beer in a mom and pop shop in 30 plus degrees in the middle of nowhere may be an option, but I would rather stay at home in that case. Been working here over 25 years, should that make a difference? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These are the types, regardless of how long they've resided here, that still keep to their isolated bubble and aren't aware of what's up and what's not..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But still, my dear local Mom & Pop always comes to the rescue should I run out. Just mind the soi dogs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I fancied a small bottle of Chang yesterday evening, and went to the local 7/11, unaware of this Buddhist holiday. No problem, I'll go to a ma and pa shop I thought. Would you believe me when I tell you that I was unable to find any such shop that would sell me 1 small bottle of beer?! Up and down small sois I went, but nothing was found. This was in central Pattaya!! I'm teaching right now, but come 9pm, I will again venture outside in search of a small beer.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After that long only a really bitchy whinger would be complaining and not working out a solution... <deleted>. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where are you..... it has been raining and never got above 28 degC where I am? Home is fine, I got the fridge set just right.... watching the rain sitting on a terrace.

Drinking at home I can do most nights of the week if I choose, but having a couple of days off work and wanting to hits some decent bars, have a meal with a drink without having to get up in the morning is pretty difficult when everything is shut?
