Re: 200 Baht Admission to Sam Phan Nam Floating Market

That floating market is absolutely garbage, on my only visit I could not find anything I would want to buy, the place was tatty, the whole experience was one of amusement at how such a crappy place could ever be built.

Re: Next to Soi 102...are they constructing a mosque ??

Dogs and Muslims don't mix very well, the Muslims think dogs are dirty and they get very scared when close to one. Dogs can sense fear. So it seems that nature will settle this issue.

Re: Finding a Good 'Farang'

Where do you find a bar with no bar girls that has farang customers. And I cannot believe I read the teuchter word "quine" in a thaiforum. Almost made me homesick.

Re: new bar

Jeez, two pages of posts to get the location of a new bar. Must be a record. Think I know where it is now, its the street I never go up.

Isnt Villagio mall in Qatar the one that burned down last year. Hope this place has better luck. A few emergency exits would be a good place ot start.

Re: Snakes in the garden

I am curious as to whether "stevepiraq" meant the snake jumped the wall or his missus. Both might be funny to see.

Re: Airport VIP Bus to and from Hua Hin

I have used it for three return journeys now. Very comfortable. Staff flexible at BKK when i arrived early, they put me on the earlier bus. Safer than many of the taxi/limo services. Overall great value and a pleasure. No stops other than cha-am and hh

Re: Early closing for bars in Hua Hin

Re: Thai Airways

I used Thai in the past from Dubai to BKK regularly. In flight service decent, food passable, trolley dollies fairly easy on the eye. But the website is crap, often the prices displayed are completely wrong. The office in Dubai is a nightmare to get to, very very slow and completely inflexible. One ...

Re: Mosquito Screens

I asked our builder for a quote for screens, and when I arrived he had already installed them. They cost much more than has been mentioned here.

Re: Coco Beach Club

Bottled beer prices are difficult to swallow, (120baht for leo) but really nice place, diiferent from the other bars, and decent food. Certainly nice to have such a place in our midst.

Re: Is Mr Finch still with Chavalit Finch?

Jane at CF is excellent and brings Thai property law into a couple of pages of A4, instead of the hugely complicated looking process that it could be. She works with Thais of whom some will be local lawyers. Who cares where her qualifications are - she is brilliant. She did my will easily and quickl...
