Re: Noise Polution

One suspects, from the OP's description, that these are wind chime bells. Quite often also found around Thai temples, they are between 7 - 10 cm and have a bronze leaf to operate the clapper. Known as 'krading lom', the locals quite like the sounds of these and believe they bring luck. I suspect th...

Noise Polution

A Thai neighbour opposite my house has put up 2 large bells outside her door. They ring all day and night in the wind, and are loud and extremely annoying. They do not speak English, my house owner shows no interest in helping. Any ideas, other than moving? Can police make them take them down? I wou...

Re: Bintabaht vs Soi 80

Forget both and head to soi 94. Much better.

Cat Spaying Hua Hin

Hi, Where have people taken their CATS to be spayed? And did everything go smoothly? I'm looking to book in an appointment for my cat within the next 2 weeks. I've had good experiences the last 2 visits for vaccines and testing at the 'Veterinary Teaching Hospital Hua Hin' and am wondering if this i...

Re: Closing Times in Hua Hin

The new owner of Cat Bar was around yesterday and said the latest closure is due to another shooting/stabbing. 4 people dead in total in recent weeks. Closure was said to be for a couple of days so all the nightclubs probably open now as usual. It had delayed his official opening party which is now ...

Re: Closing Times in Hua Hin

There are more than enough tourists/customers when it's open. Older residents won't be affected by the bars opening at the usual times (Not talking about extending the opening times, merely not reducing them further!) You've only got to pop down once to see how busy it is. Just depends whether they ...

Closing Times in Hua Hin

Why were the nightclubs closed tonight? (02/04/18) Why are the bar and club closing times failing to meet the standards of other tourist destinations in Thailand? I am not a big party guy, but on occasions I do like to meet friends or play pool past the early bar closing time of 1AM. What has happen...

Re: Soi 41 shooting leaves one dead

The word from a Thai friend of mine that is family of a police officer, the 12AM closing time and nightclub closures will last 1 week.
This is said to be a knee-jerk reaction from the new police chief that arrived last week.

Re: Warning to all patrons of entertainment venues on Soi 94

What you're speculating may or may not be true in terms of the facebook issues. However your remarks about why their marriage broke down (And your personal hatred towards him and name calling) shouldn't be posted on a public forum to try to win people over, and is totally out of order IMO. I've seen...

Re: Police corruption, drug tested in Hua Hin

I was stopped and drug tested last month when passing through the Chinese cemetery alone on the way to Big C at 3PM. (8 police officers at the checkpoint) Naturally a bit sceptical about it, but I had nothing to hide, gave a sample after initially being reluctant, and was free to go after the test p...

Re: ThaiExpatTV,ExPatPremiumTV & 365Sport Problems

Thanks Pete, it's not what I want. I'm fast coming to the conclusion that our TVs can go to the recycle man. They're no longer of any use to me :cry: . I don't mind paying, but money can't buy what I want. TV's still good for movies and the PS4 BB, T.I.T as they say, a new fiddler is just around th...

Re: ThaiExpatTV,ExPatPremiumTV & 365Sport Problems

I wonder what has happened in the last month that has led to this. There is no way that these services have just been discovered. Have they pi**ed someone off, have they failed to make the necessary payments? Just on the Thailand side, the subscription ID's show there are 10's of thousands of subscr...

Re: ThaiExpatTV,ExPatPremiumTV & 365Sport Problems

There's a lot more positive signs with Thai Expat.

Like has been said, always a prompt response if any issues previously.

Who is going to trust them again going forward?

Re: ThaiExpatTV,ExPatPremiumTV & 365Sport Problems

Anybody have any info or feedback on what's happening with 365 sports and whether it will come back on?

Lots of the channels are streamed out of Malaysia so don't know how European copyright can be a problem.

Terrible customer service to keep everyone in the dark.
