PattayaParent Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 What if he's got a manual car? And would that have a food seller in it to or would he use the foot pedal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CGW Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 These people are plain mean! First, adjust your mirrors and put on your seat belt........... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LennyW Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 Take sukhumvit soi 89 - Toongklom Tanman, about 4K soi 13 on your left, drive right round to the Elephant Camp, about 100m before you reach the Elephant Camp cut across the dirt road on your right (sometimes has a sign but the elephants keep knocking it down!), and you will come to it. Or, go all the way to the end of Toongklom Tanman and take a left, about 2k's and you will see it signposted on your left! Warning!!! Dont be expecting a big / fancy place!!

Mobi Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 Go to the very end of Soi Nern Plub Wan, turn left at the T junction, and about 500 meters along you will see a sign for Siriporn Orchids pointing right. Take the right, and follow the signs. It is well sign posted and easy to find. It is a very interesting place, with some wonderful orchids. If you are lucky and you find the the old boy who owns it there, he will give you a guided tour and explain everything about growing orchids,and show you some of the really rare ones. He will also show you his large pond, and he will throw a stone in, and about 200 fish will suddenly appear He is a fascinating character and speaks excellent English. It's worth the trip just to chat to him. Enjoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jyckowitz Posted January 13, 2009 Author Share Posted January 13, 2009 It seems to be difficult to get the right answers at this forum. Are you all from UK, USA, and Australia, since you allways are picking of my spelling, writing etc. Anyway, did I told you guys that I have been driving rally for 10 years?

PattayaParent Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 Just a bit of banter/wind up/p1ss take. Nothing personal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've come to the right country then. Most Thais have been "driving rally" all their lives. Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
