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. Mr T is 200 baht cheaper from the airport and 100 cheaper to the airport. It is quite easy to get a taxi for 1000 baht tolls included from the airport. When is Mr Toom going to become competitive and why does he think charging 20% more than Mr T is reasonable. Why should anyone pay 20% more for the same service?????
  2. Can non residents use the pools at Sabai Lodge and is there a charge?. It would be handy for anyone staying in a guesthouse in the area.
  3. You should be made a freeman of Pattaya city. ... You should be exempt from paying a barfine in Pattaya. Why don't you drink Irish whiskey?????? ....... I may have to bring a bottle of Jameson to the penthouse suite at Skytops.
  4. There is a place on so bhuakow on the same side of the road as Siam Sawasdee hotel at the juction of the road going up to Villa Panalee, I think it is called Marine Toureg and they serve good fresh fish for a fraction of the cost of Walking Street restaurants. Alternatively you can buy a whole fish that would be reasonably fresh for 50-80 baht in the market at soi bhuakow. Thai girls are not fans of expensive eateries and if you want to bring a girl to a good value for money fresh seafood restaraunt then look no further than the seafood restaurant at marine plaza behind JP bar.
  5. The Night of the Iguana
  6. At the start of my last trip in August/September I was getting about 41 baht to the Euro, it dropped as low as 38 during my trip. I would say that it averaged at about 39 baht to the Euro overall on my last trip. I don't know how much I will spend per day on my upcoming trip but if I spend €150 per day it should leave with an extra 375 baht per day due to todays better exchange rate (41.5). It was about 50 to the Euro last year. The problem is that the exchange rates are changing by a coupe of percent in a few hours and you cant really plan. It's all swings and roundabouts; while I may ga
  7. well known DJ caught with drugs and ammo so where did this well known DJ work and why did he tell the police about the extra drugs that he had stashed away?
  8. In my experience Polish girls are hot but Polish guys have real bad attitude when you grope polish girls.
  9. I dont bother with ED drugs anymore because all they do is give me acid reflux. If you get an attentive pretty girl then you do not need to use any ED drugs, a pretty girl will get you hard no matter how drunk you are. You have to want to fuck a girl for your brain to tell your cock to get hard. ...... Why cant we fake an orgasim like women can??????
  10. So does all this mean that it is safer to lick a girl's arse rather than her pussy as it is unlikely that she will pass contaminated water through her arse
  11. Problem solved I hope, I purchased a Wireless N Access Point for €35 (1400 baht), it has an ehernet input port. I have done a dummy run here at home by running an ethernet cable from my modem into the wireless access point and I am now getting a WiFi signal from both. .... I hope it works the same way in Pattaya. The 1400 baht that I spent means that I will get to stay in my place of choice and save about 200 baht per night on the room.
  12. You are correct, I now know that my ADSL modem wont work because it does not have an ethernet input. I should have realised that the connections in the hotels are not phone connections. Unfortunately I am still waiting for the official Froyo 2.2 update and have to work of Eclair 2.1. I downloaded a programme called "Connectify" that is supposedly able to turn any computer with Windows 7 into a WiFi repeater. Connectify wont work on Widows 7 starter but is supposed to work on Windows 7 home. .... My netbook has only got starter but I still could not get it to work on my lap
  13. Thanks guys. Can you give some details about this device like where you bought it and how much it cost. ... A photo of the device would be appreciated. I'm still wondering if my wireless router/modem will work there.
  14. I want to be able to get WiFi on my smartphone and on my notebook out on the balcony
  15. If I were to stay in a hotel that provides fast free ADSL internet but dodgy WiFi could I use my Nepotia 2247 wireless router modem to get WiFi? If so would it be relatively straightforward to set up? Has anyone created a Wifi zone in their hotel room by using this method? The hotel is fantastic and relatively cheap but the WiFi is patchy.
  16. The clocks went back one hour last night to winter time and tonight we celebrate the ancient Irish festival of Samain which translated into English means Summer' end ( this festival was highjacked by Christians and Yanks and renamed Halloween). With the passing of "Samain" we will be stuck in the darkness of the long nights of winter until Bealtine (May 1, the end of the dark half of the year). During the dark dreary days of winter many people in Northern Europe suffer from SAD which causes severe depression,cantankerousness and weight gain. According to research about 20% of people in Irel
  17. This application is on your phone. It is not the same as dragging a cumbersome PC around, you listen to your radio station instantly and there is no buffering period like on a PC. You can wear earphones if you wish nobody else to hear. I'm listening to adds for Paradise park in Jomtien on classics hits Pattaya 105fm, it's great to able to listen to Pattaya radio while walking around outside in your home country.
  18. It is simply amazing how advanced technology has become in that I can listen to practically every Pattaya radio station live on my mobile phone as long as I'm in an area with 3G coverage or WiFi. I recently downloaded an application called TuneIn Radio from the "Market" onto my Android phone. This application allows you to tune into over 40000 radio stations worldwide and it will be quite handy for listening to the radio back home when we are on holiday in thailand(make sure you use WiFi only in Thailand). The application is free to download on Android phones but you have to pay for downloa
  19. In the past I considered Glitterman to be a harmless attention seeking eccentric that likes to windup Pattaya lovers but I find his latest post quite disturbing and I reckon that he should should seek psychiatric help before someone gets harmed.
  20. I took a chance and booked 3 seperate trips together earlier this year, it seemed like a lot of money to commit at the time but because I booked when a good deal came up it's like I got the flights for 3 trips for the price of 2. One of the trips was almost 9 months away. I saved about €900(37000 baht) by booking 3 flights together when they were on special offer If I see a good flight deal then can determine when I visit.
  21. Hoverin' by my suitcase, tryin' to find a warm place to spend the night Heavy rain fallin', seems I hear your voice callin' "It's all right." I have met a number of people in Pattaya that literally live out of a suitcase, they spend a month in Pattaya, a month in the Philippinnes and time in Cambodia. Everything that they need they haul around in their suitcase, they dont own a condo and just rent a fully furnished room for as long as they need. These people are very mobile and can leave in an instant if they so wish. They have no commitements or live-in girlfriends. They'r
  22. Thats a blatant lie coz everyone knows that there aint no smarter being in the solar system than our very own joekicker.
  23. From the time you disembark the plane allow about 40 minutes to get through immigration and collect your bag, I have done it in 25 minutes only because I was first in line at immigration and my bag was one of the first out. You will have plenty of time if your plane is not delayed, if you miss the bus then you should be able to get a taxi for 1000 tolls included provided you bargain.
  24. Don't take in personal, I just simply hate smoke being blown into my face and onto my clothes. I was delighted when I heard that Thailand introduced a smoking ban but like many things this law is not properly enforced. Sitting beside a prostitute wont damage my health or stink my clothes.
