  1. Carrie Sent from the mostly bugfree Tapatalk app for Android. John Travolta (there's a bug in the quote function!)
  2. I bought a Sony Laptop in Pattaya from Numchai, quite expensive but preloaded with a legitimate Windows 7. A bit of a mess about getting all the language options sorted and removed a fair bit of software on it I didn't want. Bought an English only 'skin' for the keyboard. I think Sony supply good quality kit.

  4. No beer, with a curry, they have no idea these Indians!
  5. Yes, always forget that option.
  6. You have to wonder..... they have no real idea how much to administer....so had he been a 6ft 6 fat-bastard, and she a 4ft 2 inch 35 kilos wet-through, she may well not have woken up. Good on him being so alert and wary.
  7. No 150 baht Thai fixed charge?
  8. Mercure Hotel Pattaya. I believe they limit the size of the dogs to 10 kilos. These are standard hotel rooms and there is nowhere nearby where you can take the dog out, besides the car park in-front.
  9. That's not a bill...it is hardly even a tip.
  10. The Pick Up Artist.
  11. I think it would very much depend on what he spent it on. Your example of fuel is a good one, that alone is 60% on top of the already taxed £ in your pocket. Precious few pence left on the £ earned....and precious few earning those £s.
  12. Very optimistic,but there are a few streets that are pretty glum!
  13. And Barcelona humbled by a powerful Bayern. Well done Germany reaching such a high standard...... and wake up England, Manchester United weren't good enough yet overshadowed the rest at home.
  14. Many of them. perhaps you could suggest location. Residence Garden. Nova park
  15. 24hr. Phoenix.
  16. Well and good, but the guy said he is coming to Pattaya and wants to keep the dog with him. Of course there are dog kennels near Pattaya too. But it sounds like the OP wants to have the dog with him. He even specifies WS and the beach, well I think Jomtiem is a better chance than so central. Personally I would not think much of a hotel or condo that allows dogs (I know the Mercure Hotel does as I have seen Thais with their soppy little dogs there). Best bet, for a 3 month stay, would be to rent a house/villa.... I wonder if the Sheraton Villa would go for it......Britboy seemed to get a way with a lot there!
  17. Yes people get off further out now as traffic starts to slow the bus down. On-Nut used to save some time if you were heading into central Bangkok, now it is Udon Suk. It is soon after you come off the Expressway. I find it easier to ask a local, they seem to know where they are.
  18. Not likely to improve for a spell though is it?
  19. Which debit card avoids the 150 baht Thai charge?
  20. A man in a pet shop is fed up of looking at puppies and kittens, rabbits and goldfish... I want something different, unusual he said to the proprietor. Okay he says fed up ....how about this........ Oh wow, that is wonderful, how cute..........what is it? It's a baby gorilla..... What will it eat......? Milk and baby food, banana flavour....... Where will it sleep? It's only a baby, at the foot of the bed, in a crib, Wonderful, I will take it....... I must warn you that it will grow quickly, and in 12 months will be 6 foot 6 and weigh 360 lbs. Where on earth will it sleep then....... Wherever the fuck it wants to.
  21. So bring 1000 $1 bills to change next trip.
  22. I think I have advised opening an account and transferring money into it at least 2 dozen times on this board. My transfer fee is £17......... bugger. And 500 baht at this end...bugger. What I do like is taking out 10900 baht. 15900 or just 900, so I have some change. Where does it all go?
  23. Yeah I spotted a large bottle in TOPs recently. Carlsberg was my Thailand tipple for a number of years and I probably drank enough to float a tanker in. Surprised to hear it tastes horrible.... maybe designed to compete with Pattaya lager which I haven't heard much of.
  24. That is quite a big dog and why I asked. I have seen small dogs accommodated at a hotel or two but don't know about this. Try this.
