Report British Influencer's Lamborghini Recovered in Thailand After Eight-Year Saga
Who's looking for Boss? Not the cops. They've been paid. Not the family. They have, too. The only ones that seem to be interested in finding him are internet posters. -

Car Wash Places in Pattaya.
I've been using the car wash at the Shell Station on Sukhumvit in Na Jomtien since the old days BC (that's Before Covid, lol). It's a family run business, friendly staff and good prices, cheaper than most places in Pattaya. They'll do the works, inside, outside, underneath and wax. You can while away the time in the air conditioned Delicafe right by the car wash, with toilets next door. Before them I used the Easy Car Wash place on Thepprasit Soi 17, starting from when it first opened on the other side of the road. They did a good job too but were more expensive than Na Jomtien and, after moving across to the current premises, they never took less than an hour so I found it quicker and more fun just to drive down to Na Jomtien. They've recently taken over the small garden centre next door to give them easier access and more parking, it was a very cramped place. The GF, on the the hand, swears by the car wash in the Rattanakorn market on Thepprasit, but it's a bit more expensive than Na Jomtien and nothing like as nice. Then you've also got the long-established car wash on the north side of Thepprasit near the Sukhumvit junction and a new one has opened up on Third Road across from the new Arcadia Millennium Condo. I've not used either of them, the one near the Suk junction also had a one-hour wait when I stuck my nose in a few times years ago even though it didn't look busy. There's loads of them around the place, another one I haven't tried is near the Flybird condo on Soi Regional Land, it also looks busy and cramped though, just find one that suits you and does what you want at a price that suits your pocket. We really are spoilt for choice. -

Moving a family to Pattaya from Bangkok thoughts?
I’m going to echo the others about Jomtien. We have lived in Bangkok on Sukhumvit Soi 11 with our then 13 year old daughter. We saw way more body selling there than we do here. We are now in Jomtien right outside Sukhumvit. We absolutely love it here. We have a pool villa on an Soi where we are the only farang. Our neighbors are lovely. We’ve lived here for 3 years. Everything you could want close by. 10 minutes to the beach. 1.5 hours to Bangkok. Lots of international food available. Plenty of family friendly activities. You don’t have to go down to Central Pattaya unless you want to. And if you head deeper into the Darkside it’s even quieter. Definitely an upgrade from living in Bangkok. If you or your wife have any questions about living and raising kids in Thailand from a western woman’s perspective, feel free to message me. -

This will be the real test whether USA will honour their obligations to Article 5. Under Trump, not so sure with his open declaration of friendship with Putin.
