Thanks, that's my view from the back of the house, the volcano shaped feature is an old coal tip, a reminder from the coal mining industry. Double glazing is a must this time of year.

The sky is just as blue here in Wales too, trouble is everything else is white. Looking forward to seeing your blue sky next week. Glyn.

โรคเบาหวาน according to Google Translate pronounced Rokh beāhwān but เบาหวาน is listed as a second option. Glyn.

Perhaps the "Register" being referred to is with the Locate website. Glyn.

Agreed, a great hostess and a lot of fun. Glyn.

Agreed, real Chang, not the imitation Scottish variety, is 6.4%. Glyn.

Agreed, you have to sign up for it. I was asked if I wanted online access when I opened my kasikorn account and filled in a form with my e-mail details etc. Glyn.

I'm not surprised with that shirt lol Glyn.

I now take high denomination TCs, cash them then top up my Thai bank account to withdraw cash from an ATM as I need it. That is the cheapest method I have found. Glyn.

Love the ending to "Michael Flatley is really from Chicago" Glyn.

The New Plaza, that'll be a first. Glyn.

Pattaya Addicts have a Soi 6 Crawl on Boxing Day but you can't get too much Six in my opinion. Glyn.

I'm a beer drinker and my choice while in LOS is Chang. During the day I drink those cheap 10B "energy" drinks just to keep hydrated while walking or the soda water flavoured with voghurt when I can find them (haven't seen the lemon flavour one for at least a year). Glyn.

When I was going to BKK regularly I often stayed at the Tai-pan Hotel because of it's closeness to Soi Cowboy, literally around the corner and a few minutes walk. Glyn.

Cars now sold so topic closed. Glyn.

Hope you had a good day Mick. A great post showing what a wonderful life you have out there. Long may it continue. Gyn.

Crossings or not I'll still obey the old Pattaya adage "look four ways when crossing a one way street" i.e. 2nd Road. Glyn.

Well done Tony, keep up the good work. Will you be doing the crawls over the peak perion of Xmas/NY too? I know many crawls stop over this period which is unfortunate with so many BMs in town? Glyn.

Strauss fell at 110 but at least Cook just managed it (much to my amazement). Glyn.

On my Truemove Thai sim I dial 00600+country code to get calls from 1 baht per minute or 006 for better quality calls but more expensive. Glyn.

It comes from the reputation San Antonio has as stated in places such here and shown on many tv prorammes which, I admit, are probably not a true reflection of the place much like the ones on Pattaya are not. But the name exists and means something to many as a result. Glyn.

Note the time the OP edited his post in response to my query. He had no problem with my question, I left his post here once his question was clear. Glyn.

The Ibiza crowd if you're talking Brits. Glyn.

To be honest the trips I've had to Patts this year have been the best ever and I've been cuming for 10 years so, for me, getting better. Glyn.
