Sandy Spring still Sea View?
Desmond Jones replied to TF_Heinz's topic in Hotel and Accommodation Questions
After the first week and a half I moved to room 305, corner room with the slider opening up to the pool. It was really like having a private villa, and just as I thought, for me, the pool hours were 24/7. I sat out at the table next to the pool at all hours, although I was somewhat mindful of the sound, and no one ever bothered me. I was a good boy this trip, nolo molesto for the help, just lots of tips. I was also grateful the junta had lifted the censorship from the internet. This trip I swam everyday walked a lot, and I'm glad to say I did not get sick once. OBLA DEE BROS -
Sandy Spring still Sea View?
Desmond Jones replied to TF_Heinz's topic in Hotel and Accommodation Questions
Allright, this is my update on the Sandy situation. I was there on the last week of May. My Sea View Deliux was conveniently unobstructed by any icomburance. In some kind of miracle the Whooters had added some kind of roof thingy, and the sound was greatly reduced. IMO. I still love my Sandi, it's so fucking central to everything. Just sayin………. -
Sandy Spring still Sea View?
Desmond Jones replied to TF_Heinz's topic in Hotel and Accommodation Questions
I'm curious to know too. I've been a devotee for many many years, and the 8th floor seaview deluxe practically has my name on the door. I love the location, and even after respiratory infections from the Legionaire air con's, construction noise, and bad to very bad bands at the hooters I have stayed loyal. The location can't be beat, the Sportsman next door, the laundry seconds away, and did I say location? On my last two trips I was seduced by 1) the pool waitress who let me fondle her throughout the day at the pool, and 2) the milfy housekeeper who flashed me in the room and gave the morning -
Jeez, hope not about the Sandy. Not to derail the thread, the Sandy was my beloved go to for location, price and amenities. Then the Hooters came, but I can handle the noise from the 8th floor deluxe sea view. Now if the view is wiped out, I'll be bummed. Who said the only thing that's constant is change? OBLA DEE BROS

In all my trips, never heard of Asia Beach. Kinda reminds me of the backside of Koh Larn, or the Koh Samet of long ago. Thanks for the hike report. OBLA DEE BRO -

Hey Evil, Thank you for the fine grub info........ Hey Evil, What's better Food or Sex ? "I'm livin for givin the Devil his due" -
After several days I crave the greens. Sizzler is convenient for the salad bar and soup lunch, forget the rest of the menu, and I'll go the grazing bar unsupervised and take my time too. OBLA DEE BROS

Sandy Spring Noise Warning
Desmond Jones replied to Fatboyfat's topic in Hotel and Accommodation Questions
I have stayed at Sandy numerous times over the years, and have been a big advocate for the seaview deluxe, 7-8 floor. . I have not been there for two years, though the last two trips I got upper respiratory infections which I suspect was from the Air Con. From time to time I've tolerated construction both inside and outside, though I was actually planning on staying on a lower floor with a pool, or seaview to get in on the member rate. My question is 1) Where exactly is Hooters located?, and how loud is it? OBLA DEE BROS -
Sandy Springs refurbished rooms
Desmond Jones replied to a topic in Hotel and Accommodation Questions
Thanks, It's been two years now, but I'm a die hard fan of the Sandy, and I'll be back in two weeks. I had the same rate with the membership quoted and always get the high floor seaview deluxe with balcony. I like the proximitry to everything, though over the years I've had to deal with various "minor" inconviences like jack hammers two floors below, broken dripping air cons, no hot water in the morning, etc. though overall I still have to say it's a great value for the money. I had looked at View Talay, though I smoke when on vacation, and I was told by the managers all rooms are no smoki -

Ok, I did it. First I went to the Firefox site. Then I reset the firefox to the original settings. The page then loaded like before, so I'm cool. "Isrealites".????????????? -

Desmond Jones replied to Desmond Jones's topic in Technical problems or questions.
Yeah, tried the change theme button, a bunch of times actually.......Maybe a PM to LaaaMook. Oh well thanks! OBLA DEE BROS -
Look man, I'm the first to admit I'm no keyboard warrior, most days lucky to find the on button. A week or so ago the layout and fonts all changed on the other website, Pattaya Addicts. I can't navigate it the way it is, I rang the AdAware and AVG, and reset the computer to a month ago, all to no avail. I'm wondering if this is my machine, or are others experiencing this, or is there a fix, and what is it. Ok, I'm open to all suggestions. OBLA DEE BROS

Thanks man, they have a balcony with a seaview though? -
UPDATE- Sizzler at Central Festival Mall
Desmond Jones replied to Evil Penevil's topic in Restaurants and food
Sizzler here in LA is on tier two rotation of usual places I dine at. I usually don't go for the steak, even though it's usually only a couple of bucks more than "salad bar only". With Salad bar comes cheeze bread, and chicken wings, and carnitas pork and everything to make a tostada, or burrito. The place near my house is a "training" restaurant, so the staff are on their toes. I'm just sayin............ -
It is with my double double w/cheez in hand I ignobly invoke the wizened words of my yoga master who taught me the slouching couch potato; "Namaste' Bitches"

Jeeeeeeeeeeezzzzzzzzzz..........cut the guy a break. He's only trying to bring the eat's on a budget info up to the board peoples. And how the heck does the dot get connected from Thai buffets to Hungarian politico personality analysis.....Patna, only you could pull that off! MM I humbly disagree that balloon chasing is akin (hardly different) to buffet frequenting. I go to several Thai, Chinese, Indian, and Korean buffets a rotating basis in LA, and Souplantaion too, and pay pretty decent bucks for the pleasure. It's not a pig on a spit on the front of the beer bar, I'll grant you that, but

Desmond Jones replied to a topic in Hotel and Accommodation Questions
Two years since my last stay. Do they still offer the "preferred customer loyalty membership" or whatever they called it? I've found Sandy to be the best location, nice pool, and view for the money, but am always open to options. Bring it on! OBLA DEE BROS -
Thelma is a uni- girl, she doesn't go with guys, and is only working for pizza money to keep her figure. How is the lighting by the way?'

This is the lovely Thelma. You won't find this girl working in the bars, she is a professional model. which one is your favorite?
