So no RR Engines for this variant? BA have always stuck with them in the past.

Worth a look I say, particularly since that place you mentioned opposite is getting beat up lately!

The Imperial Hotel / ? new shopping mall
jacko replied to Bazle's topic in General Discussion about Pattaya
I recall staying there while I was working in Laem Chabang, this must have been around late 1990s. I had to move out for a spell as it was fully booked and I ended up in the Dusit. Two hotels that have been around a long time. It was a bit strict to bring girls back if I recall, although doable. To be honest there was nothing special about the rooms back then. Extensive space around the place, the pool area at the Beach side and gardens, parking and tennis courts at the rear. Will this become another of those places where rooms are around 5000 baht as Pattaya slides away from the mongers? -
3600 baht for 25 shots, cheaper than Babydolls! Something different, but a lot of money for a short time of entertainment. The safety aspect is important, there have been a few incidences of the lovelorn turning the gun on themselves.

As much as I would like to see Liverpool take the points, I don't think they are there to be had. Always a grudge game.

Wanted decent motorbike rent 200cc min
jacko replied to accyboy's topic in General Discussion about Pattaya
Pool Hustler rents motorcycles/scooters out, contact him. Although min 200cc is an odd request. Mostly 125cc or 150cc here. There are Forza and XMax types at 300cc but you don't see many for rent. Big bikes can be rented off the Beach rd. Scooters are all over the place, a copy of passport and an International Driving Permit required. -

How to make a donation for the boards server fund
jacko replied to frostfire's topic in == Announcements ==
It's been a year already since we lost MM, and the barcrawl last night reminded me to put a little cash in the pot. And give this thread a bump. -
Long term Russian Expats in Pattaya
jacko replied to Butch's topic in General Discussion about Pattaya
Some of the older Russian ladies wandering around Pattaya now, well there simply isn't enough beer or vodka. Strange, the young ones are super hot. -
Their stock is so old, it looks exactly the same as it was!
-
To who I wonder?
-
Beer bar complexes, names and locations.

The other end of it is that Biz, with the main carriers, is quite a high standard these days but also a high price to pay. Obviously the market seems to uphold this price.They have made Economy so cheap, and let us be honest, so crap, that anybody older, richer, less physically fit is not keen, or maybe able, to stand up to 12+ hours of it. I don't know how full the expensive front end is these days, I wanted to book Emirates and sit up front on the A380 last year, far too expensive. Now the A380 will stop production in 2 years, that level of comfort will perhaps vanish. I just booked a mid-range flight, not a budget carrier. I booked Economy, Biz would have been 4x the price, and it wasn't especially cheap at the back. That's Thai for you. I hope this 777-X is not as bad as the uncomfortable and noisy 777-200 ER I last flew on.

Well personally won't be sat on a lounger near that end, it usually stinks round there.

Under 300 Baht ... And Good! (updated July 4, 2022)
jacko replied to Evil Penevil's topic in Restaurants and food
Jameson's has some memories for me as in my early days I often stayed at the adjacent Nova Park. Very similar to the Residence Garden, suite type, 2 rooms and the place a bit out of the way! I had some good meals delivered to my room from there, I recall the ribs well. The pub interior was indeed gloomy but the weekend roast carvery often got me in there. Too far off the beaten track to be a contender, walking back down a dark soi SaiSong 4 very late was a little concerning but mostly I was on a M/C taxi being followed by another. A pizza shop next door is a fair fit for the hotel, but I wonder how Jameson's survived. -

Well certainly got that although the bookies would have given good odds on that scoreline!
-
I think by making the expensive end more expensive!

Firth posted them mate! I did post some pics from there in 2015 This is in a Trip report by the recently departed Barrief, in July 2014. Agree it is overpriced....
