boydeste Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 (edited) Been out reaquinting myself with a decent pint of Guinness. Now in the Kebab shop ordering far to much food to take home to eat with a bottle of wine. Edited September 18, 2022 by boydeste 1 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Queues of traffic with people going home. Thousands of baht lost to businesses and lots of tourists being caught by surprised. I expect it will all be back.to normal tommorrow,at least I hope so. Who knows?. Can't see a logic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was at King's Club and noticed they kept checking the camera feed outside. Was told they were watching for police to come. Decided I didn't need to be there when that happened so paid up and went over to Purple Club. At PC I was enjoying some private entertainment behind the curtain when I heard a bunch of Thai yakking back and forth. My lady said they got a call the police were coming. Fortunately it was just after she had made me another satisfied customer so paid up and went home. 1 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coxyhog Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 Just finished booking a condo in Pattaya for Monday.Used booking.com but not easy when you're using your phone with a Thai sim card for a hotspot & the cc card companies & bank keep sending OTP's to my UK mobile.Eventually used Amex as they send it by email. But it was very frustrating,especially when at the end I couldn't find my Thai sim card.Missus found it after a long search. Staying in the Grand Avenue Condo by Bormon,I guess somewhere around the Avenue. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always take a card reader but usually I get offered the chance to receive an OTP or authorise via my app. Overseas I generally use the app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
galenkia Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 Chilling out. Got today and tomorrow off work on holiday. Got another 10 days to use this year plus we have seven days off for Jewish religious days between next week and the end of October. Perk of having Jewish owners, they shut down all the branches on Jewish holidays. 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On my morning walk I decided to tag on an extra 30 minutes to go check my PO Box, so walked down passed your hotel on the way to the Post Office. Lots of metal on metal hammering and heavy machinery outside your hotel but it shouldn't be a problem in your hotel room or swimming pool etc. However it will be extremely mucky if it rains ...... and it WILL rain!

Lesson learned,check with people on the ground beforehand.I was booked in the LK Residence but changed it because I fancied a condo.Paid now & it's non-refundable so I'll see what Monday brings.

I expect you will be able to for several weeks to come while they work on the section from the Grand entrance to Buakhao as they are leaving vehicle access open to the west.
