Re: Thai Driving License renewal 2019-22
So, my plan (cunning or otherwise..?) is to scoot on over to either Cha-am or Pranburi on Monday to renew my licences. It was good to here that in Jan. Pranburi were still using the old-skool colour dots & brake/reaction set up...Has anyone been to the Cha-Am/Na-Yang centre lately (it's generall...

Re: New Year - Amazing Hua Hin
So ..what was to be the busiest night of the year for nearly all the bars in HH saw them being closed as early as 8.30 ffs! The great 'countdown' to the New Yr saw sooo many bar girls all huddled together down on the beach because their place of work was shuttered by 9.30! The army were out to monit...

Re: The speed of a heart attack
Firstly.. My condolences to you HHTel on the untimely passing of your dear sis. Last year I was diagnosed with Atrial fibrillation...(uneven heart beat). Seemingly it is quite common in today's society, and I am now on daily blood-thinners to reduce the likelyhood of clots forming... But according t...

Re: Flying into Thailand, latest updates

Re: Bars Soi 94
I agree about the death of Binta.. It was not the money coming in from the customers, it was what had to go out each month, and increased alarmingly year by year! Anyone hoping to open a new bar in town has a good choice of 2nd hand bar-furniture if the closed shutters of Binta gives away the closur...

Re: Tough action against Hua Hin beach encroachers/demolition of pier restaurants
Makros (diggers) are always available when the Amphur needs to make a point... Then the scars of 1 weeks hire lasts for years to come...Paradise City..? Not if you walk around any witness the mess.

Re: Flying into Thailand, latest updates

So wait a mo..1 guy had his test taken at 7.30 am, by hospital...

Re: Thailand tourist slump continues
So, I decided to pull my finger out & crack on with my 90 day Non O visa application. Now my plan (cunning as always) was to book my flight for mid-Dec..plenty of time to sort things one would presume. Well, farce #1 is the webpage for London's Thai Embassy...It just had me going round & rou...

Re: Binthabat/karaoke Areas
The rental on the small/round bars in Wonderland were set at 9,000b/month for the 1st 3 months, jumping to 12,000 from then on.. I do not know of any other 'hidden' expenses that may have to be paid..? IF W/L can keep it's customers, and the bars can thrive (without hiking the prices to much) then t...
