Displayed prices are for multiple nights. Check the site for price per night. I see hostels starting at 200b/day and hotels from 500b/day on agoda.

  1. Dam man, he was in a Tarantino film, do you actually watch this type of stuff?
  2. Yes they do.... but high end bikes no. Basic models, yes, cheap too.
  3. You need to get closer to him.
  4. Sid Haig (24hr)
  5. So runners up and lose in Europe again?
  6. Soi Lucky StarWebsite Walk down here.
  7. Of course. I have more time on my hands and still use a regular computer while I can, before Apple can get them banned here too!
  8. Yeah, doubt you would get bit by a rabid dog on one of those.
  9. Any issues transferring the ownership? I recall when I bought my BKK registered truck I had to go to Chonburi City and got new plates.
  10. When making these types of comments, they are more credible if spell checked!
  11. I had a friend recently stay at the RG on my recommendation and he gave it a thumbs up.
  12. Well SQ are out of T3 aren't they? Is that any better these days? For me it was always transiting in LHR, where I had to change terminals, shit.
  13. Uncredited I think.....
  14. As said, Moo, short for Moobaan is a village/hamlet area.If you type Moo 5 Naklua into Google a shit load of hotels will pop up and give you an idea where it is. It seems to extend from the Amari as far North as the sea.
  15. Good guess, so my one level bungalow is on the 71st floor!
  16. Well each region has a limited number of streets or Sois so the Soi 33 Naklua Rd nails it down to the second road on the right after the Dolphin roundabout, heading out of town. (Numbers start at the far end) Here The Moo 5 is abbreviation for moobaan....5, which is like a village/hamlet number (a subdivision of tambon). Then the 159/173....well the 173 defines the house number, (my neighbour has an adjacent number), leaving the 159 to represent a block or something like that. It is something related to land plots and are assigned as they are subdivided, hence chronologically more than location wise. Hence it can appear illogical. It seems to make sense to the post office. Here is a thread on Thai Visa which doesn't make it any clearer.
  17. 24hr... Vincent Barbi (I tried to pick someone who had actually done something else.......not many of The Blob cast did!)
  18. If you are working to a budget, then actually you are worrying about what you are spending.Even when I go out, I have limits........ the contents of my pocket (I never bring ATM card out and live too far off to drunkenly go get them). I see some guys ringing the bell or whatever, usual gaggle of GG girls and fat servers on the scrounge, and wonder 'how much did this guy bring out'?
  19. Did I say tipping? No, the idea of presuming tips and reducing salary I find unsavoury. I think everyone should be paid a minimum wage. Your link goes to a Google list, so you have not provided anything specific. I never said I didn't tip, quite the contrary. And what makes you think a waiter is necessarily less fortunate than a customer? I find it tacky, that in an advanced country like the USA, they deliberately reduce the salaries of a particular group of hard working people, and force them to become beggars, relying on the hand-outs from others. Karma, I don't much go in for Deities or religions.
  20. Not sure about that. New drugs come along now and again and detection is always playing catch-up. I think the deterrent that a drug taker can be uncovered retroactively justifies it.
  21. Looks like you are baiting someone there!
  22. Yeah, you will have a good time. I can drink 18 beers but if they were draft I think my head would explode! The lady drinks are a killer on a night out, they are surprisingly cheaper in GGBs than BBs (mostly). But if you can speak Thai and crack a joke with them, and are a young fellah to boot I think you will be pissing off a few of the grizzly old Expats as you will have all the company!
  23. And a beer...... ?
  24. I think it is of more concern how the renters treat them which is often an unknown quantity. But with a fully automatic bike like this, abuse is harder.
  25. Some areas are well known for putting ketchup on everything. I came from a household where the HP/Daddies only came out for the Sunday AM breakfast......unless there was a weekday fry-up for tea.I always thought they did more of this in the USA. French fries had to be eaten with fingers and ketchup. The GF there wondered why she ate salads and put on weight, could have been the blue cheese dressing eh?
