Rancid Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 people happy to be leaving that is why it is number 1. Now, now don't be like that. Perhaps you have forgotten your first trip to Thailand, everything just seemed to be such a buzz. After reality sets in it is never quite the same, however I doubt all those photos were from jaded expats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

notmyself Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 Can't fault the airport's 'wheelchair assistance' service, easily the best at any airport I've used though Dubai is also very good. Worst was at LA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worst was at LA. I have to agree. I was treated like royalty when I was temporarily unable to walk last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't they just. I have apparently been in Chiang Mai this week with the parents of one of my little girl's school friends! News to me as we have been at home in Nonthaburi for Christmas this year. I have a question? Is there a competition in Thailand for the most "page likes" on Facebook? I manage the online presence of a small business in Bangplad, catering to foreigners. We have 36 "likers" on our page, all ex customers. Every day I remove and ban 2-3 Thai teenagers from liking our pages. When I do a bit of investigation (I don't want to ban a customer's other half) they always have 10,000+ page likes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
