Popular Post DonniePeverley Posted December 2, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted December 2, 2023 (edited) Stupid beyond belief. Desperation too. What idiotic schemes will they think of next ? Why not extend Christmas till January ? Why not turn the clocks back at midnight by 6 hours, so you can have peak time all over again ? Why not pay tourists to come ?

Popular Post boloaf Posted December 2, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted December 2, 2023 It seems to last practically the whole month in Pattaya district as it is. I'm sure her suggested extension would make little difference here. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post shackleton Posted December 2, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted December 2, 2023 Well I thought it could not get worse First extending the drinking hours to 0400hrs in the main Tourist areas 🤑 Now on about a Songkran celebration for a month so tourists can come and throw water over each other in different parts of the Country Talk about water conservation 😱 1 1 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

findlay13 Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 (edited) Well ,not opening Shopping Malls until 10 am , closing Service stations at midnight and not selling alcohol between 2pm and 5 pm [I'm not sure of the times] were all Shinawatra ideas and look how well they worked. So why not a month long Songkran ? Edited December 2, 2023 by findlay13 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So why not a month long Songkran ? Alcohol sale hours in Thailand are 11:00 – 14:00 and 17:00 – 24:00... so that minors can't buy alcohol after they come out of school, as clearly minors don't carry ID cards in Thailand.

Chris Daley Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 (edited) It's amazing that there are people on here who dislike a water fight. It must be a sad day when a water pistol offends you. Do you also hate spikey hair and yo-yos? How many footballs have you popped this week? Edited December 2, 2023 by Chris Daley 2 2 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andycoops Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 Idiocy at it's supreme best. I've avoided Pattaya for many years because of the 10 day nam fest and remained in by Isaan retreat where the event is celebrated on the 3 actual days of the Songkran festival and in a civilised manner. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first year I came to LOS I had this in Pattaya.I was renting bike bikes and at the back of Jomtien they nearly killed me when I got a bucket of water in the face from a pick up while riding.I stayed up .Parked the bike for 10 days and never went back to Pattaya during Songkran again. Esan has succumbed to the uncivilized water throwing idiots but as you say only for three days thankfully. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
