Just an update, booked with Eva for £440 a few days ago. Happy days roll on June.

Thanks guy's for replying, think I will give BA a miss.

Got a price alert from Skyscanner today, BA London - Bangkok £399 direct. Always go Eva or Thai and avoid BA, but for £399 would you go for it, or wait and hope Eva price comes down?

All photos are showing with me.

Hi Tim Stayed at Le Katai a couple of years ago, enjoyed it but must admit the rooms looked like they needed a refurb even then. Are you still selling Bulmers and Magners cider in the bar?

Very nice pix and reports from Bangkok. Thanks for posting.

The name of the rose

Ahh Boardwalk Empire, right up there with my two all time favourites The Sopranos and The Wire. Must see tv. On the other side of the coin, i know you either love it or hate it. But watched the american version of Top Gear of the weekend.

Champagne gogo in lk metro used to open about 2pm. Personally i would give Far East Rock and Nevada gogos on soi post office a miss. They were pretty grim last time i went in.

pompeyjoe if you let us know more info on how you intend to spend your day? Like how much you drink, how many girls, beerbar or gogo and so on. Everyones different someones comfortable budget per day is different to the next. Personally i budget on about 5000 - 6000 baht per day. Some days i spend less somedays more, but thats just me. CP

Yes please repost, i find the old pics fascinating.

Theres a pharmacy on soi buakhouw opposite the sugar sugar gogo that sells Apcalis. Its cheaper than most places, i think the pharmacy has green writing on the frontage.

I can confirm the free shuttle is just from BKK to Pattaya, if you book two nights or more in one of the Pattaya hotels. Don't know why they do not offer the same service for Patts to Bangkok?

Unlike most international airports Heathrow's hotels are not allowed to offer free complimentary shuttles. Instead fixed route "Hotel Hoppa " buses operate to several hotels on each route from Terminals 1 and 3. Separate routes go to Terminal 4 and 5. Just go to your terminal as normal then take the Hotel Hoppa for your hotel or hotel to your terminal. I think they start about 4.30 - 5am ish from hotel to the terminal. its £4. CP

Last 3 trips have been with Eva never had a problem from London, my first choice when looking for prices.

Stayed there for a couple of nights this summer, the rooms are not run down or dirty just too expensive for what you get. I found that with wooden panels on the walls and dark tinted windows onto the balcony the rooms felt a little too dark and gloomy. Not the best for light if you like taking photos of your bf. Its a great location and no extra charge for one girl not sure about two. The staff were friendly enough but at 1,280 bt low season and 1,480 high season i sure you can find better value in that area. Only stayed in standard so can't comment on the superior rooms, its

I saw this on Yahoo, a few asian ones including one Thai Airline which i have never heard of before. Blacklist The first line of defence against potentially unsafe airlines is the Commission's blacklist - which details all airlines barred from European airspace. While largely composed of African and Asian airlines, there are also a number closer to home: Name of the legal entity of the carrier State of the operator Ariana Afghan Airlines (AFG)* Afghanistan Aerojet Angola Air26 Angola Air Gemini Angola Air Gicango Angola Air Jet Angola Air Nave Angol

I had a look at the Grands standard room back in June, can't beat the location. Found the room and general feel of the hotel to be very old and run down , but they were in the process of refurbishing so may be different now. If your budget allows the seaview deluxe and suites on the 9th floor are ment to be better value. Have also stayed at Secrets a couple of years ago i really liked the room and thought it was very good value for money, i liked the bar but found it a bit expensive for my budget. The management seemed to get a bit funny, i got the impression it was because i

Thanks for all the good advice guys. Just counting down the days until wheels up.

Hi, I am due in with Eva at 15.05, will i have enough time to collect bag /clear immigration and make the 16.00 Bell bus to Patts? Do not fancy hanging around for the next one at 18.00. Cheers CP
