  1. Seafood krapow pet same same Thai from Mr Moo in Jomtien,superb food they do farang as well & lots of farangs were eating there. He's a Bangladeshi & said it's his mother-in law who does the cooking. Nice bloke & I wholeheartedly recommend this place. 460b inc 2 glasses of vin rouge.

  2. There's a great Isaan Gai Yang lunch spot a short walk from the Chong Nonsi BTS station. I ate there a lot when I lived in the neighborhood. Excellent chicken, nam tok moo, som tum, etc... The owner, Khun So...holds court right out front making som tum. Go early...11am'ish...it gets busy with the business lunch crowd. . . . . I ate there so much they used to make me cook my own chicken... 🙂 My Baby Mama aka Isaan Princess -- liked it a lot... Great Food...

  4. Like everything living here in Thailand.....sometimes we all just shake our heads at what goes on here. Swear to God, if any person ( Swiss or otherwise) EVER kicked my wife anywhere for ANY reason, this particular persons brains will be all over the concrete, ready to ship back to his home country!

  8. I've been travelling since 1975 when I was posted to Germany & my # 1 basic rule has always been never upset the locals as there are more of them than you. As for the assholes who beat on Thai women they are the lowest.

  13. It's a normal maneuver called 'crabbing' to keep the nose aligned with the centerline of the runway, then using rudder when flaring to put the plane on the ground in the proper landing position to continue straight down the runway. Used to do it myself, a hell of a lot, when flying smaller aircraft such as Cessna 172's and Piper Warriors in Fort Worth Texas. It's just the same principle in bigger planes. Slipping a small plane to the runway was far more interesting, although maybe quite scary to the passenger.

  16. Who can blame them really with what has happened in the last week - Arrogant Swiss kicking woman in the back yelling "f**k Off"............filming it and putting it on social media. - Another Swiss punching shit out of an old lady that was using a zimmer frame to shop in Big C. - A Brit chucking a glass at a woman feeding soi dogs. They really are fucking it up for the rest of us !!

  18. Signage only went up a couple of days ago... it's been there and open for a few months, but the only people I've ever seen in it were a few (like 3 or 4) of the younger ?Russian? crowd, doing karaoke...

  19. Wifey and I and 2 friends from USA hit Asiatique, July 2016 was nice, fairly new place if I remember correctly. Tons of restaurants, nice walk around by the water and such. Then took them over to the rooftop bar at Lebua Hotel over on Silom...quite nice.

  20. We went to Asiatique a few years ago,don't remember any food stalls,just restaurants alongside the river which were not cheap.There was a big Irish pub somewhere in the centre.Not a place I was in a hurry to get back to. Probably changed since we were there. The Tawandang German Brewery on Rama 3 is a good evenings entertainment,food & beer are excellent with a non stop cabaret.

  21. Just settling in to our long term rented room (13 years) in Pattaya. Here for 39 days again. Came via 15 days in Vietnam, which was good, but different.

  25. If i was ever buying property in Thailand, it would be in the wife's name. Too easy for this shit to happen, nevermind an official change made by whatever Thai Gov. Not that i plan to buy any property or land in Thailand anyway. It would be 'long trips' whilst keeping everything registered as living in the UK. I have a small condo legally in my name for years now in Pattaya, but haven't been there in years, it's rented out.

  28. Couldn’t be arsed to cook roast on Sunday so took the family to a pub about 15 miles away for a carvery. We booked for the 3rd sitting at 5.30pm and the place was heaving, because I’d forgotten it was Mother’s Day. Typical of me at carvery’s, pile it high and hope it stays on the plate as you make your way back to the table. There’s beef under there somewhere and it was bloody good. 🤗 The son and wife had pork and most of wife’s food ended up in the gullet of my son as she doesn’t eat much, but understands that she can pile it on her plate then give it to the ravenous son. 🤣 2 glasses of Merlot and an apple crumble with ice cream topped it off.

  29. All of the many properties the in-laws have in their portfolio, including the business we started there back in 2018/19 is in the Thai in-laws names and my wife is the only child, so will inherit a very large property portfolio. They would love us to go back now and hand it over to her, as they are getting on in years now, but they understand that their grandsons education is much more important and they also understand just how bad the schools are in Thailand and the reason they sent their daughter to the UK to be educated. They’ve made extremely good provisions for our son as well and have increased that every year since he was born. If we were to go back to live in Thailand, she’d have no need to work (in the real sense) for the rest of their lives, but she’s not yet ready to leave the UK for good. We’ve talked often about going back to live for good when our son finishes his education, so maybe in 8 years that’s what we’ll do. Sell up everything here with the exception of one house just in case our son needs a base in the UK or just a UK address. I’ll be 80 by then and sitting on the porch (of the beautiful house that the in-laws had built for us in Hua Hin) at sundown with a glass of wine in my hand, will suit my lifestyle just fine. I’ll be old enough not to have to mix with the ill mannered Farang by then, in both the UK and Thailand and I’ve come across a few in both countries. 🤣

  31. Shit yeh (again)! When I moved to Surin in '97 a Swiss guy got his throat cut at the Kap Choeng border because he'd been slagging off a bunch of Thai blokes in one of the food shops there. I had met him a few times in Surin City and he was a right arrogant, rude dickhead !!

  32. Where I lived in the States, you would be facing a hefty fine if caught with an untagged deer in your vehicle. To avoid the fine you would have to jump through a few bureaucratic hoops to salvage a road kill.

  33. Did a paper delivery round from age 14 for something like £8 a week. At age17 i was "promoted" to working in the station paper kiosk for 90 minutes a day 6 mornings a week before school. Wages were £12 a week, of which £7 went on petrol for the week...

  34. I went in there shortly after they re-opened following his death. I was checking the 3 places on that strip for signing the "I'm alive" insurance letter prices. In my time in there I asked a few questions and it seemed they had put their prices up, which is why I pointed out the price difference earlier ..

  36. Just got home from the Hospital visiting my Dad. My Mrs came along and bless her, there's a dead Roe Deer on the side of the road, she asked why we can't take it home as she heard that Venison is expensive. I pointed out that having a deer carcass in the back of her car leaking stuff everywhere, stinking and covered in shit isn't a great idea, and although it wasn't there last night when we came home, I might struggle to lift an 80kg lump of dead animal over the crash barrier in the live lane of the A11 and into the boot. Bless her she's very clever but sometimes I do wonder to myself. Incidentally, there were about 10 dead pheasants littering the roadside as well I counted.

  38. My wife owns our house in Thailand, my thought was that with 2 kids if anything went seriously wrong who owned the house was the least of my problems.
