I am extremely saddened by this terrible news.

RIP Phil

Probably impossible but be good to take a few days off and go somewhere for a few days and chill out. Maybe go to the "source", like Kohn Kaen, Buriram, Nakhon Nowhere, etc. and catch one before she may even think of heading to Pattaya.

Plenty of TGs up in the temporary wife's village in Sida/Bua Yai who have never stepped foot in a red light district enthusiastic to meet a farang. I personally would look for an orphan with no kids who has her own home. 555 Good pickins upcountry if you are lucky.

Thanks for the PayPal drinks from Germany. Cheers from me and Bee.

How do we do the same with PayPal to help your bar out? I am interested.

Yes, exactly right. I'm very surprised things haven't kicked off big time already. 

Is this a see daaeng shirt uprising? The GF up in Northern Korat said the usual folks in her village who always make the trek down to BKK for these things haven't gone anywhere.

I bought the boat from my father and keep it docked at his pier off his property. I am out on the Atlantic atm so you see less and less birds. The boat is a 22 foot pontoon.

I am selling it in a year and a half when I retire and move to SEA (hopefully if this current shit storm subsides a bit). You want to buy it? I"ll give ya a good deal on it my friend. 🙂

It was on the top floor of a 4 story block of flats.... he had fenders hanging from the balcony, so definitely wasnt in danger of drowning....

I thought the flag was upside down. Only a trained eye will notice. 🙂 

A flicker of hope at best unfortunately. i guess it depends on how much clout the Minister of Tourism and Sports has with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Ministry of Public Health, Ministry of Transport, and Ministry of Interior. I like his initiative. 

I have joked with TGs and BGs over the years when we pass a gold shop and they insinuate that they would love some "thaawng". i always told them, "f**k thaawng" jokingly right back at them. They always ask, "Do you saapeak -fak thaawng- or -f**k thaawng-? I'll then say, "laeo tae khun". 🙂

Is that your boat?  Quite nice. No "birds" on board to help you with your "bait" LOL! 

Did not realize until a few weeks ago, how much fun it was to be out on the water again.

Tight lines.

I am having a lazy day after my exploits with the copper. just as well as it has rained continuously today.

Good that you know a bit of plumbing. That kinda work here cost a fortune. It's sometimes $140 bucks just for them to show up. If I didn't have my nephew over the years who has a home improvement company, sort out my plumbing needs I'd be right f**Ked. 

Looking for a fishing spot.

Saw these legends 18 times in concert. The tail gate parties before an AB concert was half the sanook.

I've had a quick scout round some of the Thai-based media (not exhaustive by any means) and I haven't spotted this "no tourism until Feb 2021" publicised anywhere.

Has anyone found it?

If not, I just wonder if this is pure scaremongering by "someone". When I played the video, at the time I did wonder how any country, with the current facts available, could say that they're "closed" to tourism for 6 months. That's a helluva long time, apart from the fact it wipes out all of Thailand's high season.

If it's fact, in my opinion, the Thai government are bonkers to make such a statement.

That's good that you cannot find another source confirming his claims.

I don't buy into this taking away freedom nonsense.

For me, wearing a mask, social distancing, hand cleansing and future vaccination is not just for ME. It's also a care and concern for my fellow citizens, friends and family alike. 

Agree 100%!! Some people in this world will always be "deuu" (stubborn).

Scooters WAS just about the most successful bar on Soi Bukow...

Pit Stop seemed to draw a fairly large crowd on Buakaow as well.

When there is no evidence of ANY internal cases of Covid 19 in Thailand for many weeks does it make any sense in wearing a facemask? Who are you going to catch it from?

The Thais will continue to wear the masks.

This series was mentioned before. I am halfway through the first season and it's a good watch IMO. (On Netflix and AMC I believe)

February 2021?? pom gloom jai maak maak 😞

Wouldn't take his redundant and some inaccurate points too seriously. The guy is living in the Philippines according to his channel, so WTF does he really know about living in Thailand? He also has a video called, "21 Reasons to Retire in the Philippines". Hmm? 

Used to hear this song 5-6 times a day/night years ago in the Patong Bars and Clubs.

The nasal spray sounds interesting. I am sure everyone is hopeful that it's a successful preventative measure until a vaccine is up and running. Maybe it could help open up the globe a bit more in the meantime?
