  1. California wow had an escalator to the second floor next to the stairs. I was the only person that I ever saw use the stairs. It always amazed me that people would use an escalator to go exercise. They also ripped me off on their "lifetime" membership. I had to pay 300 baht a year after the first year. They don't bill, or remind you as you walk in that your membership is about due. 30 days after it is due, they tell you that you can no longer use the gym unless you buy another "lifetime membership" There is NO negotiation, buy another membership, or go away. I'm not sad to see t
  2. The Dream Hotel tel # (038) 420771 address 115/11 M10 Pratumnak road it's a short walk to walking street, or Secrets. Not as nice, but cheap, and has 24 hour checkin. Sawasdee Sea View 302/1 Moo 10, Soi 10 Pattaya 2 Road, Pattaya City, Chonburi 20150
  3. He is right. No drug is going to make your cock, bigger, or smaller. It is the size it is, and that is that. Steriods can cause testicular shrinkage though. I know a girl in Pattaya that likes to go with body builders. She says that most have small cocks. If you asked her, she would say that exercize make a cock small. What is more the truth is that most body builders are over compensating for something. For some, it may be a small cock.
  4. Jane says that it is cream. I'm thinking condensed milk.
  5. I agree, for several reasons. I book a room for 3 days max. After I arrive, I have the choice of extending my stay, or finding another place I like better. Switching around is not a bad idea. You can find a place that you like better, that is more convenient, or just a better price. You have no idea if since the last time you were in your favorite place if they started noisy construction next door, or management has changed. Keep options open.Just like you can't make plans in Pattaya, don't lock yourself into a room. If it's not the high point of high season, there are always lots of ro
  6. Huh? I was never quoted a 1000 baht barfine, or anywhere close to it. I wasn't told short time either, longtime 1000-1500 Has something changed?
  7. I have had the same experience with both Tequila reef, and Mike's. I like the food at Mikes better. The next day or two in the toilet happens more than in just Mexican places. I think it has more to do with the cooks, and refridgeration than the food itself. Knowing some restaurant owners, they have a hard time getting across to Thai's that they can't leave food out all day, and then cook it and serve it to a customer. The same goes for frozen food, that they will refreeze if it goes unsold. Getting Thai's to wash their hands before cooking after they have been to the toilet, picking the
  8. He said Big Mac, you said Big Mac set. In the states right now, add $2.99 for the meal, or set. You also mentioned car insurance, but also health insurance. I got a years health insurance for less than one month of my COBRA insurance at home. Paying off the cops is a biggie. Pattaya 400 baht for driving with out a license, in my state its $500 and they will tow the car which will cost just as much to have released from impound. Running a red light 400 baht, in my state $235 Thai food is much cheaper. I took jane to a Thai dinner tonight, she ordered two dishes at $9.99 each plus $6 for
  9. That is what I would do. The police will say that you are required to have it with you. Most will settle for a copy, those that won't just want some money anyway. Cough up a couple of hundred baht, and be on your way.
  10. I just went through the whole process of my sister trying to pay for my flight with a credit care. The whole thing is a long story that I won't tell. I ended up with three reservationc cancelled for what the airline said was the credit card company refusing the charge. Even though my sisters card had been charged twice for the tickets. More hassel than it was worth. I ended up going to BKK and paying cash at the airport. Another thing that will work is booking through a travel agent, the charge is through them, and then they pay the airline. Save yourself a lot of head ache, and either
  11. My experience is that the places you go, are nothing more than an ticketing agency. The vans are a separate Thai company. When your van arrives, you will find people that bought tickets all over Pattaya. Just like a travel agent that doesn't own the plane you fly on. It should be noted that who is cheapest today, doesn't mean they will be cheapest next month. How much time and effort is saving 100 - 300 baht worth? Is it worth visiting 3 agency's? Six? It's your holiday, that is for you to decide. The Cambodia runs for the 15 day visa are all about the same price everywhere. For the L
  12. Naklua is mostly Russians and Germans. As Jacko said, Soi Buakhao area, add soi seven and drinking street.
  13. I have to agree here. I can't tell you how many times I've seen cooks return from the bathroom and start cooking. Sat and picked their nose, or squeezed pimples and went right back to handeling food. Not to mention having a coughing fit right over a plate or pan full of food.
  14. Glad you sorted that out. You had me wondering how you were going ship something to Pattaya, from Pattaya.
  15. I opened my SCB account on beach road. The were a bitch to work worth. They started off saying that I couldn't open an account. Then said that I had to have a work permit or a letter of residency from immigration. I showed them the form for required paperwork for a retirement visa. One of the requirements is a Thai bank account with at least 800,000 baht in it. I then explained that I couldn't get a letter of residency until I had a retirement visa, and couldn't get the visa until I had a bank account. The branch manager came over and acted like she was going to bend rules to do me a fa
  16. Soi 6 is not close to the action, other than soi 6 action. Under 1000 baht, I would pick the Dream hotel just south of Pattaya Thai on 2nd road. Phone # 038-420771 If you are not a newbie, and they are not full, the guest houses on soi LK are good. They can be hard to get to, for a newbie, and usually full this time of year. The Swasdee chain has several places under 1000, they are decent, and the swasdee sea view was my first Pattaya hotel. It was walking distance to most places that I went. I found something more to my liking a few days later. Check out Trip adviser.com or http://www
  17. I like $100 TC's, not sure what is available in the UK. There are exchanges at the airport in BKK, cash one TC there and you will have enough for taxi, food and such for the day. Cash two if you want to have money to go out on later in the evening. Personally, I prefer reception safes, depending on how their system works. Most of the in room safes are not safe, and easily opened. The better hotels have good in room safes, but most guest house, and low to midrange hotels all use a cheap electronic safe that is easy to open. There are even instructions on how to open them on youtube.
  18. I haven't checked out Joe's reputation lately. However when we first got the option to rate, I did watch how others reacted to him. I find that sometimes he gives great advice, other times seems to ramble, as well as posts windups just to get a reaction. it seemed that others gave him plus and minuses just about the same way that I did, though I tend to give many more plus than minus. I did notice that Joe went way into the negative in a very short time. Looking at his posts that were active at the time, I didn't even see that many votes, much less that many minus votes. I think that MM
  19. I have to agree wit Joe here. In Pattaya you can get away with shorts and sandals However, Thai's are very class conscious. I know some will say, "who cares what a whore thinks" But every one you come in contact with, isn't a whore. Those that are, would still rather be seen with you, if you are wearing a shirt with a collar, long pants, and shoes. It puts you above a farm worker, lets face it, they left the farm to get away from that. As much as you like arm candy, the ladies like it too. I can't tell you how many times I've been with women and seen a man that was shirtless, or wearin
  20. I can't tell you where to go, but I can tell you where NOT to go. Cayman National Bank.
