I also understand that they moved out and somebody else moved in, such they were 2 unconnected independent business transactions. But Phil said that the new name only contained the word "Heaven" not " Heavens Above". Of course if it was a blatant copy and called "Heaven's a Dove" then I would understand. Is it only because they moved into the same location or is no other business in Pattaya allowed to use "Heaven" in their name? Perhaps he converted existing sign to save money. If the old sign was left! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mai Thai took a decision to close. We visited usually twice per week and each time there were always a few customers apart from us. Probably the most expensive restaurant I use regularly but always good quality food with equally good service and a pleasant environment. Great shame John, one of our favourite restaurants to visit when in Patts. Boy some of those Belgian beers packed a punch. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I moved into a condo with a salt water pool about a year ago... But shit the pool has been closed because of insane-demic most of the time...I honestly dont give a rats-ass about the rules,I would use the pool anyways,except the pool is on the roof and they made it where your key-card can't go to the roof....

Yea, it's like the thread i started a week or so ago, about the amount of ex pats now saying they're leaving, at least temporarily, to 'home' or places with a sense of normality again. It's going to get worse until it gets better in Thailand, and if my daughter had only been in school for 5 out of the last 18 months, with no sign of getting better, i'd be thinking the same. The owner seems well known and liked, does a lot of Muay Thai etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Classes are scheduled and held over zoom, so they can interact some. Homework assignments and tests are uploaded to Google classroom and graded. Communication is over Line when there is an issue understanding something, as well as reports to the parents about their child's progress. I think the big killer for the owner is the business. If I had to earn a living here and it got shut down by the pandemic response I would have to leave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here when the schools were closed, though no where near as long as in Thailand, teachers were very good sorted home education. Yea, i think many will be thinking about cutting their losses like this guy, because even though the end of this shitstorm is in sight due to the very effective vaccines, many country's vaccine roll out leaves a lot to be desired, and Thailand's is even more 'complicated' again ...
