robsamui Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 (edited) Plus don't forget that the sale of alcohol will be banned on Friday and Saturday as they are two important Buddhist holidays. The booze ban will be effective for 48 hours from 12:01am on Friday to midnight on Saturday. Better nip out to 7-11 for your prune juice before midday.
