  1. I had it happen at the BIg C checkout, I let one get away with it but when another friend tried it I lost it, took her stuff off the counter and threw it to the back. They seemed amused by it. I am perplexed by such rudeness and arrogance....... Sadly, as you say, becoming more common in all nationalities, plus I don't get tougher looking each day, just uglier.
  2. Although Jomtiem is a popular place, with a long beach, many restaurants and suitable for staying, the night life isn't there. Getting to and from is an aggravation..... much too far to walk, heavy traffic between there and Pattaya, and heavily used transport.
  3. It was a noisy night at my place. Lightening and thunder starting about 8.30 and then rain with it by 9pm or so. Woken up by thunderclaps throughout the night! Sounded like 2 major storms. Still fair rain at 6.30, a full pool and some sink-holes in the garden. The TGF is quite happy as there will be no need to water the garden for a few days! Any beach left in Pattaya? At 08.00 I need to put the lights back on as the rain gets heavier. My cable TV is out, the TGF will take the truck and I will be left here watching my expensive chlorine spill over the edges of the pool... and the earth of my garden mysteriously vanish..ever fearful the house will tip to an angle. I am told this weather is here until Saturday, and the radar image shows it heavily around us. Any idea where that hit MM? Surely some damage!

  6. No, they get to park their BMWs infront of entrances.
  7. Remember him in Terminator 2
  8. But up there it's price is compared to a 5C.
  9. You were sharing????? Are you Indian!
  10. She made quite a fuss of getting them back when she realised her machinations had failed.
  11. They seem to go a long way, I have seen them at the 36 junction and can guess they are going at least to Laem Chabang. I think I gave 20 baht each time I went from the Ford dealer in Jomtiem to Klang, but really don't want to ride them farther.
  12. I mention prices to the extent of tear drawing boredom in GO-GO Bar Reviews.
  13. I thought Air Asia had changed their format anyhow, and that seating was preassigned and baggage needs sorted when booking. I certainly didn't like any 'free seating' arrangement and always paid for 'Pre-boarding' and the seats near the front. ... even though at some locations it didn't happen. I once boarded to find an orange on my seat, and many others at the front, and was surprised that Air-Asia was giving out anything free. Actually a Chinese lady had pre-boarded and was trying to reserve seats for the rest of her party as they boarded after her. Bloody cheek.
  14. I forgot heir.....
  15. I will pass on that suggestion if you don't mind.
  16. Yes I have done that...left my suitcase at left luggage in Bangkok while I did a short side trip someplace. Very convenient. Might have been when Air Asia or another budget carrier was still at Swampy though.

  21. Looks a lot like my Ranger with a back on it. My Ranger has been a good vehicle.
