I stayed in there once myself and it was okay, but I much preferred their sister hotel, the Dynasty Grande a little ways up Roi 6 which is also apparently shut down at this time although I haven't heard any other news regarding it.
Same, the Dynasty Grande was my first ever hotel in Thailand. It was very new itself at the time. I subsequently tried about 8 or 9 different hotels along the Nana/Asoke strip over the years but always had a soft spot for Dynasty Grande. The website is still up but has no updates and it is not possible to book anything through end of 2022.
We shall keep a light burning.......

Just back for a rest before heading out for a sundowner.
It seems most bars are opening at 2pm but Morning Light and one or two more were open before. Word on the street is closing at 11pm but some places have slow clocks....555
The Dynasty Inn all locked up and the Dawin Hotel is gutted. Will they open again...who knows
Bullies just around the corner is gone...gutted with workers inside and bull still outside. Not sure what is going on there.
cheers
I hope the Bull stays there even if Bullies doesn't survive. They had a very nice chef there back around 2018/19.

Always good to see up to date pics of BKK. It will be good to get back.

Interesting to see that Siamese troops occupied Neustadt in Rhineland.
Good video, cheers!

We had meatloaf, scallop potatoes and a nice little salad. Always one of my favorites.
I couldn't stop thinking about a Twitter post I just saw: 😅

I went to watch Hearts at Tynecastle on Tuesday evening.
A nice big crowd, good second half performance and another three points.
I travel to and from the game by train which takes less than 20 minutes and the station is five minutes from where I live.
After the match I get to Haymarket station very quickly, go into the entrance hall and look up at the departure screen.
Cancelled...Cancelled....Cancelled.
At least two thirds of all departures were cancelled including my next two next trains back to Bathgate.
What was the reason given for all the cancellations?
COVID !
Translation.......the fucking drivers are using self isolation as an excuse not to work.
So I have to get a bus back which took almost 1 1/2 hours as it does a magical mystery tour through the West Lothians.
At least you can tick the West Lothians off your bucket list now. 👍

Been quite a long time since I read a John Grisham. Halfway through this one and so far very entertaining.

Arctic Chill by Icelandic writer Arnaldur Indridason.
Set in an Icelandic winter it is about a half Thai boy found dead. Gripping stuff set in a bleak, poorer immigrant area of Reykjavik.

I was speed reading through that post and misread the last word. I thought 'shit the cat must have been on the homebrew as well'

In homage to George's wife or is this named after another Mildred?

A very informative and entertaining travelogue. Thank you. You never quite know what quirky little things you will find at some of the temples around the country.

No way! Michael K Williams, who played the stickup artist Omar Little in “The Wire”, gone at only 54…..I’m in shock. Edit: paraphernalia found near the body, he had known struggles with drugs. Damn
Also French actor Jean Paul Belmondo passes at 88. Never saw his movies, but in the VHS days around 1986, remember seeing his films all over the video store

I trust your condition is stable.
Yes, condition stable. I'm not ready for the knackers yard yet but they don't want me galloping out of here just yet. It will be a while before I feel like strapping the old feedbag on and I have been warned I am at increased risk of Hay fever.
I'll get me donkey jacket...

On the advice of a BM here I took Ivermectin and got a sore throat. I went to my doctor and said 'Doc, is it serious?' He said 'Naaaaaaaaaaay laddie, you're just a little horse. But to be on the safe side it is best if you hoof it down to the horsepital'
So off I trotted and now I'm sat in the examining room with my legs up in stirrups and a fecking doctors arm up my arse. To make it worse the cnuts name is Dr. Herriot

RIP Ed.
To be honest I was surprised to hear this as I thought he had been dead for a few years but glad to hear he lived a good long life.

If the question was: Thailand - is it Like a Virus? I would agree, an addiction certainly.
