I still have not received any refund for the unused portion of my ticket, despite Expedia telling me I would (within 8-12 weeks). It is now over 10 weeks! I would expect at least the UK taxes on the flight, which are a fair quantity of money, could have been refunded more efficiently. Whether it is Finn Air or Expedia holding onto my money I am unsure but I think I will stick with booking directly with carriers in the future.

National Lampoon's Vacation.

A baker's dozen.

Agreed many steaks are a disappointment in Pattaya, yet command a price. I always felt the same way about steaks in the UK. The best results I got were cooking them myself, with a little help from a thread I read here saying how to cook them. I often wonder if it is simply bad cooking. I am afraid the pic above doesn't look very good and mean with the chips.

As previously posted, when a UK pal visited me he ignored my advice about getting a UK IDP. He had no problem hiring a bike on a UK licence, but the policeman who stopped him wanted to see an IDP and he got fined. I also recall being pulled up and being nearby a Brit tourist arguing the toss with a cop because the rental company had NOT required an IDP, yet here was a policeman who did, as if they cared. It is only about making money guys.

Hmm, that is hardly a convenient place. I too am considering this for a few reasons. My UK licence will have to be put away soon and the Thai one used when/If I rent a car in the UK. The address will no longer apply. They are getting quite 'difficult' when you rent a car in the UK these days (at the airport). I also had an issue with the UK credit card which was apparently a problem for Hertz, but not Avis. Still a problem for me after standing in line so long.

Yes I would say it is just closer to Second Rd, next door to the Indian (Raj). Google Maps

Not sure about that, love my pies in the UK but was sat in Witherspoons with juice and gravy stains down my front a few too many times.

Dear me, don't like a nice butter dripping corn on the cob? I think the pie filling may also include cream of chicken soup, I have heard of it being used before.

No, in the UK they are relatively cheap at £5.50 which is less than a single stop and fine....(400 baht), with no guarantee you will not be stopped multiple times. Who knows what flavour of the month is with police, they are certainly still collecting for their retirement fund as I saw Friday in town. The 3rd Rd Klang junction was doing a good trade for no left turn on red, the 2nd heading North across klang also had the regular guy picking off those without helmets or those stopping too far forward.

Oh a world of problems......... But at least you can save on the request for extra cash in the morning 'for taxi'.....

Drive her bike for her!

Usually I am past making smart decisions at going home time!

Not too much detail in open area please guys.

They line up on 2nd Rd just past Tai and you can negotiate with them, they will take you any-place you want. Or you could just jump on, pay the 10 baht each and get off at Soi Diana and walk through from there, it would be a churlish girl who thought this too strenuous. Stop at beer bar on way. Option 3, girl with own motorbike... it happens! From Soi 6 it would be more messing about. Get a 3up motorcycle taxi!

I think it was over ten years since I last went in, it looks the same! First taken in by a TG, heaven knows how long back that was, I bet over 20 years. Once off it was a place for very good fast Thai dishes, I often went for their duck curry. One day in the past I took a look inside and it had lost that 'Thainess' atmosphere. Next door but 2 or 3 was The Berlin Cafe where I often had lunch, their soups (particularly Hungarian Goulash) with fresh baguette hit the spot. They seemed to have an excellent selection of cakes, no fairy cakes though, they did the serving. Thanks for the memories.

Just booked via Mr Toom and usual quick response (within an hour actually). Perhaps someone went to visit Mama at Mr T.

One of my earlier domestic flights in the USA I was astounded to be given something similar on quite a long flight. Perhaps it was a bag of nuts. That was perhaps in the old days when BA were better......I often relate the tale of when I was flying Club Class and commented to the trolley dolly, 'Oh, when it said Shrimp salad, I didn't realise it was a shrimp, with salad' I once used to look forward to my BA flights to Heathrow, stilton and a glass of port! Glad you explained what a 'FUN sized chocolate bar' is, this is also supposed to be for our benefit to stop us eating too much sweets. I remember when a Yorkie bar or a Marathon Bar used to be a good snack, now it isn't worth bothering, but costs the same. I too noticed my Emirates puff pouch (in Biz) was only given on the overnight leg, but it was a pretty good one. For reference.
