smooth expat Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 I don't understand. Is it a Thai holiday? Every other store I've gone to today is closed. Or maybe they just close up shop when they don't feel like working?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KittenKong Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 I was at the Hilton for lunch and there was hardly a soul there either. It's usually pretty packed. Maybe everyone is hunting for the last remaining cans of beer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or maybe they just close up shop when they don't feel like working?? Went to Immigrations this morning, then Big C South, a garden shop, Pattaya Tai Tuesday market and Friendship. Everything was up and running, but it did seem traffic was a little lighter than usual and I was in and out of Immigrations in under 5 minutes. Maybe just the late summer lull before the high season begins to ramp up. Whereabouts were all these closed shops? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gone Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 I haven't noticed anything closed but I have noticed over the past few days that Pattaya seems to be a lot less action going on everywhere. I even rode my Motorbike to Pattaya Nua today and didn't almost get killed.......very strange. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emdog Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Hey guys, they are looking for haircuts BECAUSE it is Tuesday, if all the barbers are closed on Wednesdays...... Thursday is just too far away to enter into mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSixpack Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 (edited) Lots of family business are open on the weekends and so take a weekday or two off, esp in the depth of low season. Are we done? The DYING PATTAYA brigade will soon arrive and we'll have to listen to a bunch of doom & gloom nonsense.

After that I took the car to the car wash on Thepprasit Road which was busier than usual for some reason. I then drove back via Pattaya Tai and 3rd Road. Pattaya Tai was chaotic as usual.
