Perhaps it is what you can do in Pattaya the night before that requires the severe calorific intake of a British full-Monty breakfast. Can't go out shaggin' all night on a diet of bugs and rice!

I changed my post that you quoted... in the matter of stuff like this you have to get the words right.

Mine was drinking tequila (none of that salt and lemon crap, with a side glass of tomato juice) a habit that set me back a few years.

If so rather sad,hardly an environment to cultivate new businesses. I agree that this is not a place to undertake running a business lightly..... Nor would I think employing the lokals to be easy on the patience..... Sorry to hear another falang has had to run with the tail between the legs. Good luck to him wherever he ends up.

Oh, by the way you idiots, it is baht...B-A-H-T.... a bath is something Australians keep crocs in!

Bangkok Bank. No such papers with me, I think I just had the passport. Now here is the caveat.... at the time I had a sizeable savings account, and I was required to open a fixed term deposit as guarantee for the cards (I say cards but originally only applied for 1, when I went to pick it up the guy had got me two, must be on commission). Another point is I have had an account with them for some years.

Could be he is spending a bit of time out of network coverage. I have just been in that situation and my phone reported SIM Inactive (1-2-Call). I had to shut it down and restart it. Coverage is not 100%

The visa extension will be cancelled if you leave the country without an exit/re-entry permit. I always put a multiple straight in there, sorted.

Note Joe's reply on this one. A lot of people think that obtaining the retiremeent extension includes the 90 day reporting....no, it is separate. 90 days from entry or last reporting date.

Reminds me of the Seinfeld line. Yes I am interested, tell you what, I'll come round to your place later to discuss buying something. What time do you eat?

Rubbish Joe, got mine easy peasy, don't work here, each with 200k limit on them.

Yes, quite pleasing to see, amidst all the depressing things about the UK.

Well not every tourist has a Thai bank account to transfer into.

Jeff Goldblum.

French run so food of a good standard. Nice pool and surrounding area. I don't think the location is so bad, pretty close to 2nd rd if you walk through The Avenue, although I would not like to stagger down soi 15 from Buakhao in the early hours.

Randy Quaid

Well since you 'gave away' the lead actor... Heath Ledger.

He doesn't appear to have been credited under his stage name, nor his real name, James Bradford. There was a discussion on this a little while ago and the consensus was an actor needed to have been credited. Personally I agree with you, if he appeared in the final print, he was in it! Let's move on eh.....? Nice little tits.... Halle Berry

So we need to go back a bit...... let us say.....Evita.

Back onto grumbles..... and yet again it is traffic related. Mini-bus/van drivers..... Fucking huge great coaches blocking the whole road trying to do a U-Turn. Falangs driving their truck with the window open, their elbow sticking out and loud, crap music blaring out going thump-thump-thump. Only cheap charlie idiot poseurs do that, shut the window and put the AC on you tight-wad.

Were you not the driver of that banged up Bentley on 7 early Saturday evening? It looked like some cars had been playing dodgems and considering the heavy Pattaya bound traffic a weaver may have caused the mess, fortunately nobody looked hurt. I wound down the window as I maneuvered between the dented cars and suggested to the guy leaning on the Bentley that things were going to be expensive on that car.... then he did look hurt, or pained, or pissed. Driving is an easy grumble here...... parking too.
