JoePai Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Looks like Pattaya could be extremely busy this coming weekend with hordes descending for a long weekend. Thursday is a Public holiday and so is next Monday so with taking a sicky on Friday the Thais can have a 5 day holiday 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post JSixpack Posted April 28, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted April 28, 2014 Look on the bright side: it isn't a filthy water-ice-powder throwing holiday. Take the opportunity to enhance your Thai language skills. Wonder if the bars will be closed any day? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post champers Posted April 28, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted April 28, 2014 Why can't these inconsiderate Thais leave the city to the Brits, Irish, Aussies, Russians, Germans, Indians, Chinese, Malaysians, Koreans, Iranians, Turks, Africans et al? What are they doing taking a holiday at a resort in their own country anyway? 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think many of them actually manage to arrive at the 'resort', I find most of them queuing all the way up and down Sukhumvit Road on a Saturday and Sunday. I guess I can just play spot the traffic jam for 5 days this week instead of the usual 2. Coming from Bangkok I don't suppose they even notice the difference, just bring their accustomed gridlock with them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Nixon Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Horrible weekend coming up in Pattaya. I thought every weekend in Pattaya was a nightmare. Come to think of it so were the weekdays. If only all those sex tourists would stop bothering the foreigners. If only all those foreigners would stop encouraging them. If only all the beaches were clean and devoid of all that flesh. If only people would learn to walk. WELCOME TO HELL !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NanLaew Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 I think the short run is only a few kilometers. I will certainly do the "ball buster". Not all Hashers are overweight alcoholics There's absolutely no social stigma attached to being an aficionado of the 'women's and wimps' trail. I hared a couple of has runs in Houston several years ago where they were used to inner-city pavement pounding so I introduced them to the wide open spaces out the Katy Freeway. It royally buggered up the couple that liked to run while bouncing a squash ball (honestly!) and the guy who insisted on taking his bloody bike on the run rather sheepishly surrendered it to the back of my pickup at the water check... where I served an anchovy with a peach schnapps chaser in lieu of any water.

Woody1 Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 There is a bar closing coming up I want say May 13. You're correct. Just for info, checked on the Thai public holidays for 2014, there are only 33 of them this year! It's a wonder any work gets done here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
