Re: UK passport photograph
I've always used the Kodak shop across the road and to the right from Soi 80. I've used them for many years - passport, immigration, school pics and anything else needing a pic. Just tell them what it's for as immigration and UK passport are different requirements. They know all the rules. Never ha...

Re: Foreign property lures are rejected
I can’t understand anyone building a house on land they don’t own in Thailand, using a 30 year lease. Easier to buy a beachfront condo. Indeed. Usufruct's are only as good as the land office's word (which can be bought). I know people who have still lost property with these and leases (most of whic...

Re: The Impact of the Supalai Blue Whale Condo
Thank you for the detailed reply. This was quite unexpected after Benroon's pointless rant, but it is good to get a reply from someone who makes an effort to appreciate the subject. errrrr a) the 'rant' was in response to your defence of a monstrosity for the sake of it and b) if you look really ca...

House versus Condo? I'll take a house with a private pool thanks

Re: The Impact of the Supalai Blue Whale Condo
So I popped in to find nearly all worth having are sold already! (Fully expected that probably a BKK buyer would have snapped them up as is usually the case) Though there is a 3 bedroom condo on the top for 10 million available! The ones worth having (1 bedroom plus imo) they have just one left if y...

Re: Pizza in Hua Hin
Daddy Deli does excellent pizzas. For those of you have access to Facebook there was recently a poll for the best pizza in Hua Hin on the page for Hua Hin Foodies. I believe DD won but plenty of other popular venues. YNWA I've never eaten there but I go past it every evening when I'm in Hua Hin and...

Re: Hua Hin Golf Festival 2023
I said it was in decent condition. Didn't think there was much difference to B. As a member I played B a month ago and haven't been back since due to the utterly disgraceful condition Even though I've paid my green fees I'd rather play elsewhere than look at that shit! Benroon I assume by course pr...

Re: Napping
But I know many people are unable to snooze for only 20-30 minutes, they go off deeply and find it hard to wake and to function properly afterwards. So yes, it's 'horses for courses'. I'm one of those and usually feel worse if I've slept during the day (unless a hangover is involved)! Yep I'm one o...

Re: Kebab Shops in Hua Hin
We seem to be talking 'Doner Kebabs' and 'Shish Kebabs'. I wouldn't have thought they're comparable. I'd agree with BB's son in that the best kebab (shish) is in Bahn Khun Por. I've not found better and of course the price is very reasonable. I think so - I'm talking sliced kebab meat from the spit...

Re: The Impact of the Supalai Blue Whale Condo
It's an eyesore regardless I would say that it is the rest of Hua Hin that is the eyesore, especially when compared to other international tourist destinations. Srassing Road is a disgrace. The Grande is even worse, and Bluport is build right alongside an out-of-control landfill. Maybe if you are c...

Kebab Shops in Hua Hin
I've been reading reports that Kwality has re-opened in Soi 94 near Space Condo. They used to do a decent meal when they were just behind 94 before. Will hopefully give them a try tomorrow or Sunday. I heard about this too, didn't know it was called Kwality tho Surprised someone hasnt opened an Ind...

Re: The Beer Thread 2
This isn't going to help, but I just can't remember but it was a 2 storey restaurant and had a huge cold fridge with loads of english and continental beers in it. Could sit inside or outside. I can see the bloody place but can't remember the name. I am hoping for a eureka moment when it comes back t...

Re: The Impact of the Supalai Blue Whale Condo
Yep it is a horrible looking building thats for sure. Well it is not designed for us, and I am sure that somebody out there thinks that your house is an abomination, even though you love it to bits. It's designed for whoever wants to stump up the circa 15k a month - most of the people I've seen go ...

Re: Royal pardon reduces Thaksin’s jail term to one year
As a billionaire I would still rather be holed up in California, Paris, Milan (definitely not London) than a year in ANY hospital then released into Thailand. There's even more to this than meets the eye I reckon
