  1. Pharmacies on Second Road one before Tim's Bar run by a woman around Soi 13 ish and the other right by Tim's Bar. So my mate told me ....
  2. You can load money on a PayPal card and works great at ATMs etc I find the young Estonians very efficient.
  3. Try comparison websites like TotallyMoney. Com lots of others I just like this one ...
  4. I loved Jerry Sadowitz never knew he clocked Saville as wrong 'un. The Netflix doc is good and well put together but the book Hiding in Plain Sight is much better. Its terrifying on reflection how he got away with it all that charity bollocks he did ..... Jerry Sadowitz said his favourite ever joke was Angus the ..... look it up.
  5. Ooh now that looks crispy and porky and delicious and much better looking than a hot tub babe in the old Babydolls ....
  6. Just back from my second day of tennis in the blazing sun. Backhand would make Wawrinka and Federer swoon but my forehand has gone to 0.2% THC shite ..... volleys solid as ever, serve crap ..... I'm hoping for a Wild Card ...over 60s visually impaired non-binary no Russians competition. Oh ye of little faith long may you scoff ....
  7. Back playing tennis after 3 months ... just home ....... had 3 broken ribs after fall in Jomtien ..... stop laughing you cruel heartless bastttards ..... it hurts when you fall off seawalls ... stop laughing I tell you ... 🤣😅😂 ...... I played well today in the heat and another hour or more tomorrow.
  8. There is JL regional Thai food and 10000000% Isaan food. I'll invite you up to our restaurant its a unique cuisine to Thailand. The rest is fusion food nothing wrong with that before the Woke brigade jump in but yes Isaan / Lao food is Thaiand's real food. Bit like roast beef and Yorkshire round your way ..... now go and sort out your cricket club ..... hope Michael Vaughan will be OK.
  9. Is it specific to the airline or general upgrades ????
  10. These roadside karaoke are everywhere in Isaan when you know the area. Mostly owned and controlled by the boys in brown I have been very reliably informed. Ages seem to range from grandma Ma Crockett to I dread to think. Mostly little roadside shakes lit up like Santa's grotto with fairy lights.
  11. Never seen Thai Lounge so busy as last night. It's huge these days with at least 3 bars and loads of buffets for every taste. I'm not a spirits drinker but unlimited if that is your thing. Food looked really good too and they kept changing it. Only downside one really noisy Indian (again) jabbering away loudly on his phone and then a sodding Russian starts barking out loudly too. Lounges are usually so quiet and peaceful ...... great places before flying.
  12. I met them both during negotiations ...... and indeed young Ricky is happy now. Pandora's was great ....
  13. Just try not to get a lounge that has flights to Mumbai or Delhi. Remember back in the day just before boarding Indians literally pulling everything out of fridges, buffets and stuffing them into bags almost frenzied. Poor old Thai staff tried their best but horrible sight ....... not seen it for a few years so ... Sikhs are however great fun in the lounges and usually prop up the bars great company.
  14. Agree with Baz they will rebrand it as the Thai Welcome Smiles Pass or some such nonsense. Governments like keeping tabs on people.
  15. Worth it Butch. I love trying out different lounges. Quiet calm and relaxing and some Istanbul, Munich and Toronto have been amazing. Swampy ones have almost all opened up again so yep fill yer boots. £26.86 for a one off probably not worth it but if multiple visits yep...
  16. Because I was travelling 48 hours later my last Thai Pass took less than a minute. 4th time got one now. Posted elsewhere about airline check in via Austrian Air. Wanted copies of every damn thing was a disgrace but just a warning even now. Print everything and sod saving on your phone.
  17. Good to hear mate was getting worried about you. Thought some old black and white Crimewatch footage of you in your QPR following days had appeared on the internet ... ..... I'm up in the Boonies in Isaan chilling and sweltering if you get my drift. Loving it to be honest .... peace and love my bro. !!!
  18. Don't panic they still do the 99 Baht Lighter version ......... less fat and grease etc ...each to their own.
  19. Take it you've never had the nearby Canterbury Tales breakfast special .............. you can always throw up behind one of the bookshelves if need be. PS I drive a small urban run around car and its over £50 / £55 to fill it up and I don't drive much these days thank the good Lord Buddha.
  20. Wouldn't give the I Rovers 129 baht breakfast to my dog. OK I don't own a dog but .....
  21. Like Tommy D. know too many similar stories. The ones that get me are the ones that get rinsed more than once. The Brit high speed train driver on great money. Lost two houses cars etc and last time I met him up in the boonies he was asking me about a girl he had just brought back from Pattaya ................ aaarggh ...... sadly he dropped dead last I heard. Aussie skilled boat builder houses land all his savings gone ..... she was in hook to a local Thai / Chinese mafia nasty piece of work. Ex-army smart guy lost .......... list could go on and on. It is mainly gambling rather than drugs etc ...
  22. Two of my favourite writers at the same time. I up in Isaan watching the rice grow and dogs scratching themselves so ....... beautiful day after pouring rain yesterday. Douglas Murray's book is brilliantly written and argued but so depressing in that so many people follow this unthinking / woke / CRT / Buy Large Mansions/ my lived truth--- agenda. Everyone should read it and argue back when you hear nonsensical dangerous arguments. He does even get into the eco / animal rebellion lot but yep nearly finished it. The other did not know about until I saw it in the airport. Read everything this man has ever written and this one is a humdinger zinger ..... reads like a detective thriller and yet you know where it is going. People who foresee the Covid pandemic and what happened next ........ fabulous writer Michael Lewis.
  23. I can echo what Pretty Bitch says and Dollhouse beside the old Secrets was rocking late last night too. Good to see ...... Most tourists however seem to be Indians large groups everywhere and not a Chinese flag waver to be seen.
  24. Beautiful oasis in the heart of London.
