john luke Posted March 28, 2020 Author Share Posted March 28, 2020 Only the basement of Central Festival is open and it is a giant take away market. Chairs and tables well spread out to keep the order takers and delivery staff a reasonable distance apart from each other. The supermarket at the Second Road end of Central Festival appears well stocked but few customers. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john luke Posted March 28, 2020 Author Share Posted March 28, 2020 I think this is the beggar who used to be seen on Soi Buakhao. Not particularly good photographs but his MO is sort of rubbing his stomach in a circular direction. The lady with the hat walking away from him gave him some money and he is putting this in his pocket. I got on the baht bus and was quite surprised to see him flag down a motor cycle taxi on which he was driven along Second Road. Last shot is from Baht Bus at stand near Pattaya Klang. That concludes today. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haaaa funny but that brings up a good point go out only for essential needs well no one in pattaya has to go food shopping as you can get food delivered by many restaurants so lets close all the markets and only allow delivery. That guy has shit between his ears he seems to have slithered away now 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forcebwithu Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 (edited) The market on Nurn Plub Wan is now roped off to funnel customers through a screening checkpoint. One lane of Sukhumvit, north and south bound, between Klang and Tai got an anti-virus scrubbing this morning. Nurn Plub Wan got the same treatment. Of course the above is an exercise in futility and a big waste of water. Water we can't afford to waste now that Mabprachan Reservoir is fast approaching puddle status.

Less traffic so there should be fewer low speed collisions, however less traffic also means traffic will travel at greater speeds and the potential for more serious high/higher speed collisions increases.

john luke Posted March 29, 2020 Author Share Posted March 29, 2020 The Avenue Robin Hood Sunday Roast Security Officers at each entrance but otherwise deserted is the appropriate word. The Fountain switched off. Food Court closed. - Good job BM @Painter or @Krapow not here. Mr DIY closed. And finally the shots you have been waiting for. The rest are Soi Buakhao as it was this afternoon. Down then and onto Second Road. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

john luke Posted March 30, 2020 Author Share Posted March 30, 2020 I am conscious that a lot of these photographs are very similar to those posted during recent days. From Thai Air Office The Beach - pretty quiet Road works Onto Soi 6 Not seen this before. Plug for Bella Italia delivery service. These two massage places only opened earlier this year. Finally a lack of Social Distancing. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forcebwithu Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 Water truck with free water made a trip down our soi this morning. We've been without city water for three days now due to a broken main, so the free water is appreciated. Someone asked if Katesiree was still serving coffee. Sadly the answer is no, at both locations. Still working on the new Jomtien Hospital. Looks like outpatient services are open. Resorts/ST rooms are now closed. 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
