Re: No reason given for permanent closure of popular Saphan Pla Hua Hin Walking Street
Since mid December I've tried to visit this place for the ambience etc..Every time I went there was bugger all there! So this inconsistency about whether it was 'on' or not? may have had folk (same as myself) thinking sod it..& not bother coming any more to an empty pier../

Re: Hua Hin Traffic Gridlock

Re: Thailand tourist slump continues

Re: Bars and nightlife in Soi 94
I see Woodstock has been closed since last week's fly-past by the SHA+ team..?
I wonder WHY (when it is/was open) their music has to be Soooo damn LOUD! ?? Woodstock seem like they are going head to head with BKP decibel-wise! Up to them I guess.

Re: (Don't) Wear a Mask Debate
It seems that in H.H. the only folk refusing to wear masks (When EVERY THAI PERSON in town is doing so) are fat middle-aged farang ex-pats! All day long I see farangs on motorcycles with no helmet, & no mask.. OK, what makes them so special..? Do they not witness the black looks from the locals....

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...
