tim armstrong Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 I've got a cold and I'm sick. Reading all this now I want a banana roti, 4 doughnuts, some good coffee and a pretty woman to smile at me. But because I'm sick I can read a book without interruption, and I can sleep whenever I want to. But the weather is just great, cool and sunny - more of that!

Loles Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 500 baht (which included a 200 baht tip) for a 2hrs long massage in central Bangkok, in a nice air conditioned community mall. I guess the happy end was cancelled Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pii Kate Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 I was pushing my way between the (what seems like) millions of motor bikes/bicycles in my condo parking lot when I noticed attached baskets with food, school supplies, helmets, in them. No one steals here. Or almost no one. I love feeling safe in Chiang Mai. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saakura Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 500 baht (which included a 200 baht tip) for a 2hrs long massage in central Bangkok, in a nice air conditioned community mall.You are one of those who are responsible for double pricing the falang. Which normal man gives 2£ tip on a 3£ bill? You have to be on low battery Fatfather Sent from my phone Normal tip is a 100baht. But i normally take a bottle if aromatic massage oil and request the massuese to use it on my knee caps, calves and back, especially after about 2 weeks of hard workouts, so i tip a little more. All of them are experienced mature ladies, no hanky panky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neeranam Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 500 baht (which included a 200 baht tip) for a 2hrs long massage in central Bangkok, in a nice air conditioned community mall. Wow, a 66% tip - you must really love it. Do you want them to increase their prices or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neeranam Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 240 Baht a year for my bin collection (twice weekly). Can anywhere in the world beat that? I'm 20 baht a month although I give the scavenger bin man the odd bottle of whisky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ulic Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 REAL double espresso with sweet milk, 4 donuts, and all the sweet business ladies making eyes at me for B25. Morning is starting out nice 4 donuts for 5 baht, I thought it was cheap when I paid 12 baht for a donut. Clearly I was ripped off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Familyonthemove Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 I like the genuine concern shown by the security guy when he saw me walking out to the protests with camera in hand. I smiled when I looked at the Facebook postings from my Thai friends... food, food, more food, protest site food.
