Cherry Bar - 20th Year Anniversary Party - 8th August (Soi Diana). This Friday marks the 20th Year Anniversary of the Cherry Bar. Seven years on Soi 8 and now Thirteen years on Soi Diana. Not a bad accomplishment in today's Pattaya climate. There will be free food, shots and lots of fun So if you're in town, please join us to help celebrate this occasion.

Greetings Monkeywatchers, showaddy crap to the height of summer, and to the floods that come with it these days. You’ll probably get better weather at home. The latest establishment in Pattaya to burn to the ground is Catflaps in Pratumnak, which met its demise due to “a faulty bug zapper.” When police visited the premises belonging to the vendor of the offending item, they were told “It wasn’t faulty. It killed all the bugs, didn’t it?” A small group of Koreans had an expensive night out in a Naklua restaurant when they were presented with a bill for 100,000 baht. This may seem a l

Wow, business must be bad if Indian tailors have taken to spamming Pattaya forums!!!

Breaking news a cheese factory in France explodes. Eyewitness reports of De-Brie everywhere.d

I don't even know what a line app is. And yes I have had a computer since my first Vic 20 in the 70s. I am still a luddite. Happily I got through and Kevin fixed me up as usual so no worries.

The derelict, Chittaphawan Monks College. Worth a visit, if you like taking photos, but take some dog food along with you.

I don't know the answer but Google street map goes back to 2012 on soi 6 for a nostalgic trip back.

A man was in a hospital bed wearing an oxygen mask over his mouth. "Nurse" he mumbles, "Are my testicles black?" The nurse raises his gown, holds his penis in one hand and his testicles in the other. She takes a close look and says, "There's nothing wrong with them sir." The man pulls off the oxygen mask, smiles at her and says very slowly: "Thanks for that. It was lovely but listen very very carefully ... Are-my-test-results-back?!"

What may be the last morning walk for some months.

Yep, there are some VERY good Managers in this league. My target is always to be in the top 10 but have never quite managed to make it despite jumping up the rankings last season with a lucky Assman Chip ... Good Luck everybody involved .. "Isan Chez Moi" this season !!

If you ask nicely at check-in they will give you the extra leg room seats too.

LOL, and then there was a fire at the lingerie factory. It was a falsie alarm.

Having read the replies ,yes its called Foodland and for a small place like Pattaya it has a great selection of foreign foods, IMHO. The prices are a little high when compared to at home but if you want a taste of home , and some years I have spent 4 months in Pattaya , then a few extra baht is worth the expense.

Its been a while since I bought cheese in Pattaya but there is a supermarket halfway up the left had side of central Pattaya road If going towards Sukhumvit, that used to have a huge but rather expensive selection with my favourite, Stilton, at around £48 a kilo. In all honesty that was far to expensive as I only pay about £13/14 a kilo at home so bought a few other blue cheeses that were much more economical.

CAAT bans drone flying nationwide until August 15 CAAT bans all drones nationwide until August 15 due to Thai-Cambodian border tensions; violators face fines, jail time, and possible drone seizure. The Civil Aviation Authority of Thailand (CAAT) on Wednesday issued an urgent announcement prohibiting all drone activity across the country until 15 August 2025, or until a new order is issued. Nationwide ban covers all UAVs except for security agencies According to the announcement, the ban applies to all types of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and all areas nationwide. The only exc

This seems like activity that could get one banged up, & it would be even easier to get nicked by the Bobby if you do not know where you're heading & are asking about. I remember being loose with the rules in a middle Eastern country & we ended up getting a little in the shit for being drunk in public, just for trying to get a cab.

I recall one hotel that had an isolated floor where tarts lived, and you could call a number and get one to come to your room. IIRC they were mostly from Eastern Europe back then. Again it is decades ago for me too.

I believe it is in the heart of the Arab quarter. Currently, the thing to avoid is young Kuwaitis racing their rented motorbikes!

I worked there for 6 months. One of the smaller malls has a mainly filipino blowjob bar and there is a Thai bar there at night too. Not the place to be on a "muslim weekend" as they all drive in over the bridge sober and return ratassed with their balls emptied ..... Too long ago to be of any use to the OP though .. Sorry!

dkmotorbike is pool hustler's aka pattayagolf's business. I see @sinbinjack has posted on PA and already received a reply back from pattayagolf. I had tagged @PoolHustler in my previous post since that will generate an email to him if he has notifications turned on.

Anybody know the background on what the pier in the last picture is meant to have been ?

Greetings Monkeywatchers, core coon crap for tagging along, and welcome to Pattaya as it begins its celebration of the Year of the Stinking Pig. No wonder the Chinese all left. Well, a new law passed by the Thai government at the end of last month means that in certain areas we can now buy alcohol 24 hours a day. All we need now is somewhere that’s open 24 hours a day so we can buy it. Investigations are under way after parts of Sukhumvit Road were plunged into darkness following the theft of street light control cables. A local spokesman said “We take a very dim view of this sort

A small car show on the ground floor of Central Festival. This, as I assume many will know is situated in front of a restaurant on Second Road, usually accompanied by another prestige car. By good fortune today the second car had been moved. Quite a difficult shot as there is a metal grill located directly in front of the car and the rear of the car is in a shaded area. There were also bright red cones at the side of the car. Lightroom/ Photoshop have done a pretty good job. Not the colour one would expect for a rugged pick up.

I’m always amazed at the new places I get to with the wife around Pattaya usually connected to food places. Today it was the Hidden beach in Na Kluea and was nice to see Pattaya and Koh Lan from another angle or direction. Only been here 10 years and still discovering the place or as I get older my interests are diversifying 😊

I always thought this was a Chinese New Year Ritual.

@keyman Because ASEAN NOW deleted all the posts about these fake TDAC websites because one of their website sponsors owns one of those sites. So some of us are trying to spread the world to as many forums as possible that these sites are not official and harvesting your personal data.

Big Buddha

Wondering if the fat (Chinese??) Buddha is there as a model for the future Thai female Buddha images. The ones of the past are all of slim stature.
