hope its still going early sept when i get there, i love a curry and havent found a decent 1 in patts yet, i might try and coax skygod out as well.

www.expatnetwork.com, they have loads of stuff in the oil/gas industry.

for me its a combination of a lot of small things, its cheaper than the UK, the weather is a damm site better, having 3 shops within 300mtrs of the condo all open 24/7, no non-smoking regulations everywhere, always knowing when i go out there will be someone to chat too, in the Uk as i work abroad, often when i was at home a lot of mates couldnt get out during the week. and as others have posted little things like the comp repair, or in my case getting the bike brakes done for next to nothing. 1 other little thing is 44kg with a great smile, lol. ( i know it wasnt about the girls, just

there was also a while ago a very good post on here about this subject, complete with pics etc, try a search and see what you can find. if anyone can remember the post and find it please post a link

interesting read, and some good points, dont agree with everything in there, but some harsh truths there.

i love these reports always make me smile. thx

i think you did the right thing, my condo is 96sm and havind been there 6months and bought a load of stuff it now isnt big enough, 48sm is tiny!!! luckly i rented this one, as wanted to stay a yr to make sure i still liked the place, come december i will be looking over 3rd at some houses, 2/3 bedders are around 20/25k a month for a top notch one.

great as always, definatly puts a smile on my face reading these reports

the above is not correct, check out www.thaivisa.com, as redwood 13 states, it is now 40,000 mth joint income and no requirement for money in the bank, this topic on there is widly covered with people who have obtained the visa under the new rules.

i think its fine, even if the original author is somehow connected to the club, i had looked up both sites on the net, but had never realised you could take the lady for the night. talen, i dont play out much now, but i think if you hold on to your visit till after the 3d i will give it a go, as on our 1st visit to soi6 we were both upstairs in 5mins, this should be even quicker. hehehe

i will be using it in may, had a great meal there xmas night,with great company.

Jacko/Casper, i got my account 3 days ago with the siam bank on 2nd rd, just past the central junction on the right hand side. totally painless, copied my passport, and i only have a tourist visa, lady spoke perfect english, deposited cash, got the ATM card, registered for internet banking all in 20mins, no problems about visa etc etc. seems to be who you get on the desk at the time about the visa thing. TiT

when i got stopped i had to pay the following, 200 for no helmet, 200 for not having licience with me, and on top of that they took the bike and i had to pay 300 to get it back. The cop told me if i had offered a cash settlement b4 he wrote the ticket he would have let it go. having been stopped since, twice, 100 has made him dissapear, no questions asked, just took the money and waved me on. so in answer to the original post, yes its the norm here.

adam, which executive residence do you have on the books?? will chat when i catch up with you. Kev

same same, fly business, get a shower, grab some food, head to the bar( most lounges are non-smoking) and relax for a couple of hrs, great break from the flight.

hehehe great as always!!!!

a great time was had by all, one of the best parties i have been to there, damm AM still looks good!!!

hehehe great write up, and i thought satire was dead.

defo not my thing, but whatever floats your boat!!!!

i agree, despite contacting them by mail 4 times i never got a reply until over a week later, by then i had booked and confirmed the RG with 1 mail, and Ib didnt even ask for a deposit, top man in my book, but also had similar problems with the arica lodge, so its not just the LK group.

Iwill be there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

hhmmm, adam advertising another place? maybe cynical but you wouldnt happen to have a financial interest there would you? only joking, see you around the 12th.

hi just got back from staying there for 3 weeks, the 2 room rate is 2.700 a night, and there is a in room safe big enough to take a laptop, overall i couldnt fault the place, 15mins stroll to walking street or 3/4 mins on the bus to soi16 and a 2 min walk. would definatly recommend it.
