You're the only one who has mentioned drinking outside 7/11's, what's the appeal in that?

I don't usually go to bars, except sometimes the skybar in Siam@Siam, or sometimes to the Hilton, to have a cocktail while watching the sunset. But I do drink in restaurants at lunchtime, or at the Holiday Inn seafood buffet on Saturdays. As for my language expressive abilities, they are quite good in my native language, and I think I can handle myself acceptably well in the other languages that I speak to a greater or lesser degree (Spanish, English, French, Russian, Italian and Portuguese).

It's not your language, it's you ability ti reason and think critically that would be the same in any language. You clearly have you alcohol consumption mapped out - and see to think where your drink makes it "different"? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimTripper Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 There’s some French guy that’s always in my condo pool. He keeps talking to everyone constantly and will approach you in the pool. Is there any to get him to shut up? I’m not comfortable being in the pool with him. It’s some European guy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bbbbooboo Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 hmmmm... from memory a beer for breakfast is more tasty than usual as your taste buds are not sullied by other things. However. I wouldn't recommend it as it leaves you feeling very tired later in the day (classically you are supposed to keep on drinking for the rest of the day to stop this happening, so each to his own Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great idea if it means very cheap beer (which are ice cold as well) I love the idea of getting a beer anywhere where the cap is left on and I pop it off myself. I feel like some of the bars are filling old bottles with the tap instead of popping a new beer. I got a "bad beer" that tasted awful the other night, flat and stale. So bad that I did not drink it, just left it there. It was one of those cheap places streetside on soi baukaow. That's very rare for a bottled beer, I think. Just more comfortable not having it open, people hands or fingers around the rim, etc. Or at least pop it off at the table which is never done, instead of in a back room somewhere. Always wondered why it's always opened in the back. Seems odd. May just be me being paranoid, but I also like it capped so someone does not slip something into the beer in a back room or over by the bar where I can't see.

However.

Putting poisen into your body first thing in the morning before you've had a chance to catch up on your fluid intake isn't really the best of plans. It is fun, though ????
