KhunBENQ Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 (edited) Maybe it's worth to put a reminder on the oncoming holiday in General topics? Some foreigners still have no Thai wall calendar. I have three in the house Bars closed, well many might be more interested that all gov. offices (incl. immigration) will be closed Edited February 19, 2016 by KhunBENQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonathan Fairfield Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Yep most bars will be closed. The odd mom and pop store might still sell you a Chang or two. Also, as KhunBENQ rightfully points out, all Thai holidays are listed in the Thaivisa Calendar which you can download here: http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/files/file/718-thaivisa-calendar-20162559/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thai Immigration/ Passport Control will give blessings for all drunken delerious Brits who have consumed all 5 chicken wings ( bones inclusive) who still retain a Passport ?

Aussie69 Posted February 21, 2016 Share Posted February 21, 2016 I have no idea what Makha Bucha Day is, but I hear that Whiskey (and I guess spirits in general) are very expensive in Thailand? I have seen mention of local variants Sang Son and Mekhong, but always followed by terms such as severe hang-over, sickness, poison. What's the story?

Some people assume anything Thai is poor quality. Personally, I like SangSom, and have never suffered any ill effects from it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thian Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 (edited) Why so stingy with the beers? I walked 3 rounds in a big temple carrying a candle, 3 insence sticks and a lotusflower.... How many of you did the same? I'm not a budhist but it was very relaxed in that templecomplex and i go with my wife every year. And for ONLY this time i agree with soibiker, Sangsom doesn't make you ill....much better then (thai) beer.
