  1. About 1 week ago I Acquired a push bike. I have managed to find a few bike shops but I now need to get the bearings put back into rear Sprocket. Can anyone recommend a good Cycle repairer in Pattaya? If no other suggestions I am going to go to CH.Numchai. I,m just waiting for them to get back to me. If you have never cycled in Thailand, I would recommend you try it! I have enjoyed it a lot. Not a lot of effort is required and you get a nice breeze as you go along. My first day I got it i did 35KM. Neck and bum ache but that was about it.
  2. I hope this is extended to bars and restaurants when fully open. This could be the start of the end to smokey bars in Thaialnd! https://forum.thaivisa.com/topic/1165637-smokers-beware-youll-be-fined-5000-baht-if-caught-lighting-up-in-bus-stations-and-markets-nationwide/?utm_source=LINE&utm_medium=Social&utm_campaign=news
  3. Sliced diced and carnation milk!
  4. No I wanted people views on why apple is better and why it would be beneficial for me to change. I just wanted a list of advantages and the disadvantages, ie a constructive debate!
  5. I always listen to this hype about Apple. I have never had anything apple and refused to buy any apple product because of the snobbery around it. People with a apple never say " i will look on my phone" its always " I will look on my Iphone" As I always have a contract phone, I can have any phone I want. I did say to myself next time I'm going to have a apple just to try it out. I also dont like being controlled, Android is very open source and works with everything. As I understand it Apple is not and has a lot of restriction on what you can do! OK give me the reasons and benefits, why I should try an Apple phone. I did want the new bendy phone , but i think they are going to be a lot of problems. Do apple do one?
  6. I must have got this wrong that is nearly 12b million per vehicle. Yes I did get it wrong, it $2.7 million on 7 cars. Which is 11.8 million bht per car. Straight to no 1 slot! Do not pass go, do not collect £200! That would pay 17, 550 people the 5,000b they need for food now. But hey the priority is catch those speeding drivers, who will bribe there way out of it!

  7. Thailand just spent $2.7 million on 9 Tesla car at $386k each to start sustainable law enforcement. that is about $300,000 more than list price for each car. The above average punter has a pick up truck. Go Figure
  8. Well this goes straight to No 1 slot!! Lol I was so pissed one night I jumped on a motorcycle taxi, told him where I lived, he nodded, took me on a ten minute ride and arrived back to where we were! He pointed to my apartment then asked for 100 BAHT😅😅 I was that drunk I'd been outside it all the time.
  9. When you are crossing a busy road like second Road, you walk across and a car will slow down because of traffic and stop directly in front of you. So you are now standing right in front of his passenger door. Why could he/she not stopped 4m earlier and let to pass in front of them. So now you have to stop and walk around the car!
  10. Why Thai girls will pay 100b for a motorbike taxi, when the bht bus goes the same or near enough the same route?
  11. f**k the plates lets see the girls!
  12. Good job you got the cider locked away!
  13. I very often find my self in Buriram, the home of Chang Beer! On my fist trip you could get 4 large chang for 200b. The beer would be stored in the fridge over night so it was perfectly chilled. This is where it all goes tits up! You order your 4 bottles, and they bring them out the ice cold fridge and put them on the nice warm table along with a metal bucket of ice. Within 15 mins the 3 remaining beers are warm and half the ice is melted. The warm beer then melts the ice super quick in your glass, so then you are drinking watered down beer. I could not get them to understand, to bring me 1 cold and the other 3 warm and them swap the warm beers for cold when ready to drink. So they continued to bring 4 cold and I still swapped when ready to drink. Then towards the end of the night they have no cold beers left in fridge. I did a Andy Pandy, "time to go home!" And why dont they use thermal ice buckets!
  14. If you just click pay by credit card you still get the crappy rate 38.65. What you have to do is press "get other exchange rates" then you get Visa exchange rate, which you will not know until credit card comes in.
  15. The paypal rate is a right stich up 38.65. I manged to pay on credit card, but the banks rate which should be 40+. I was thinking the better rate, they would get more but i just ment I pay less. I should have added 20b but I had already paid before I realised. lol
  16. Can anyone recommend a good place to hire from? I want a PCX as i,m not a little guy!
  17. Yes it was. I know what you mean about OYO, they have many in AC. But this one is OK, I am more than happy here. the Royal I was paying 1250b a night and I Prefer this place.
  18. Because I've been a naughty boy and grounded, i thought i would download some movies, the hard part here is thinking of any good films so help please any suggestions. Anyway Only film i could think of was 1917. Went on Pirate Bay found it and downloaded it through a torrent. It can vary with download time depending on No of seeders. After a bit of fannying around i went onto files to see if it had started. not only started but finished in about 5mins at top quality. Next day I asked hotel boss an Indian Guy, was his internet fibre, he said no its 5G. I cant even get 5G in my home town Newport Pagnell. Before my flight was cancelled I was stay at the Royal Suits LK Soi Baukow, Although I got it a good Price, I was paying for the breakfast that I did not want, so decided to move to the above. I'm paying 550b a night (I've now gone monthly so paying even less.) and i cant knock it, no lift but i'm on first floor. Good water pressure and piping hot, good staff and balcony overlooking road. nice foyer with pool table, And now i find out it got 5G. Unless someone is going to burst my bubble and tell me they do not have 5G in Pattaya. Is 5G better than Fibre and whats the difference?
  19. You mean they have'nt got a lounge!
  20. YES...Because it was not enforced and bar owners know that smokers are controlled by their habit 24/7, and if a bar does not allow it, they will move to a bar that does. The non smoker is not controlled, nor do they have the collective dedication and unity shown by smokers and will generally go with the flow. It is only later when the non smoker starts to get itchy eyes and a sore throat does it start to impact. Yes, So I see why bar owners are reluctance to ban smoking, and that is why it will only work if it is enforced by government, like it is done in most of the civilised western world.
