  1. Found Fraser's on my last visit Feb had breakfast their most days. Well run clean good A/C TV and choice of drinks. The main guy got married to his Thai lady whilst there. Will return soon
  2. Hi Evil, I also was their Saturday watching the sports and having a chat with Steve one of the owners. I always welcome your reports on food. I suppose if you had known Steve was just there you could have had a word about the meal as I always find him approachable and eager to make sure the place is working at it's best. This last visit I visited the bar many times as I have over many years and had a feed or two and have got to admit have noticed a quite subtle change in the quality of service. There seems to be a big turnover in staff however I noticed the cook was the usual one. Food took quite awhile to come despite very few customers on some occasions. The Sunday Buffett is still very popular as is their all day breakfasts and they still get many regulars rolling in. I find when one of the owners or general manager is their things go a bit smoother.
  3. I find it difficult to believe. QATAR and a number of middle east countries have signed up as being against ISIS. QATAR also swims against the tide as far as ISIS beliefs are concerned. Unlike Royal Brunei QATAR airlines has alcohol on it's flight and in QATAR alcohol is accepted. However maybe I am bias, am flying to UK with them next year
  4. I agree it's a great trip. did it with my TGF and spent a couple of days on the River Kwai Rafts
  5. Mates and I stayed at the Sabai Wing in June this year for 2 weeks. I was asked for credit card as usual and for my ladies card and signature so she could sign for anything she ordered. Found the rooms with Balcony well appointed and quite large 2 bottles of water free everyday but they were slack if you didn't drink 2 they didn't give you 2. Mini Bar was reasonably priced. I left everything out computer phone and no probs. In room safe was good. Laundry put in before 11am and you got it the same day. 200bht for GF or LT to have breakfast no joiner fee even for 2. 24 hr security laundry and massage across the road motor bike taxi and money exchange 20 yards. Drinking street 100yards bigC 50 yards sabai dee 50 yards. Pool good and mostly in shade. Large billiard table and bar next to pool. The restaurant is now open after renovations. We had a few afternoons by the pool with Gin & Tonics. Is a bit of a family hotel especially on weekends when they come down from Bangkok heaps of kids. also many golfers (as I am). And just to add the obvious many Russians (not that theres anything wrong with that)
  6. Gidday, I have just logged on and a pop up screen has asked me to do a survey on behalf of Pattaya Talk Just wanna know if this is legit
  7. At The Haven now. Always stay here. Golfing Hotel, friendly staff food very good as I see heaps of falangs not living here but eating here Rooms are spartan but do me for stays of 2 weeks. Safe big TV good AC and good bed Pool is good. Accom doesn't include breakfast but for 1000 to1200bht a night still good value.
  8. Cant wait
  9. I try and keep my budget to $aud100 a day. At the moment I can get 3200bht for the ozzie $. My main costs are LT's as I really like LT's you can have one at night and another shag in the morning. Always BG's at 300 BF and 1000 LT. Then golf at around 1700bht every 2nd day So on average I have around 1500bht for drinks and food a day. San Mighuel Light 80bht x 10 breakfast 100bht lunch 100bht dinner 100bht This does not include accommodation which I get for 1000bht pn which I pay at the end of my stay with VISA.
  10. Good Photos looks like the Sharkman is back
  11. Will be in Patts in June and looking for restaurants that have good buffet lunch or dinners. I have heard Mantra may have a good one, but that was some time ago.
  12. I took the advice once about having your money in different pockets as this would confuse them. But with all the pockets in these cargo shorts it just confused me especially when i got pissed, which was quite often.
  13. Always the 1st place I visit when in Patts change in menu good idea I always enjoy trying something different. Last June me and 2 friends had dinner there we all had separate dishes and shared a Pad Thai next day we all had the runs and slight stomach pains. I was quite surprised as I have never had a bad meal there. But will be there again in November and have a chat with Wi and Oot
  14. The Roo Bar has a wide variety of English BF good prices and good food, comes with a cup of tea or coffee.
  15. Arrive 4th November would definately like a game How do I keep in touch?
  16. I find the results difficult to believe. I have only been to Patts 4 times but I cannot believe the amount of Ozzies I have run into. I sit at a bar and automaticaly say gidday and get a gidday straight back. I am having a foot massage and the guy on my left is from Perth Oz and the one on me right is from Melbourne Oz WTF. I roll into a bar on Beach Rd order a drink and a bloke hears me and says gidday he's from Sydney I jump in the pool at the hotel 3 blokes in there all army dudes fro Queensland on leave fron Afghanistan Went over in November to play golf half the blokes I played with were from OZ Same Same happened in Phuket many years ago Australia was not hit hard by the GFC and unemployment is at an all time low 5%. Theres a lot of people around with a lot of money take into account that OZ workers get 4 weeks annual leave and a lot get 3 months long service leave after 10 years, with a 12 hour flight and you have a heaps of tourists taking up the cheap flights thru Jetstar and Air Asia
  17. Seeing my name on the card of Mr T's driver at the Airport Handing over my suitcase to him whilst I grab some drinks for the trip. Booking into the hotel having a shower changing and heading out alone to anywhere I want Heaven
  18. I visit the PBG every time I'm in Patts. Have got to know OOT & WI on the day shift well, also the the guys and girls on night shift I love the place the staff always have a friendly smile for you and remember your name. Yes there is a lot of banter between staff but all you have to do is catch their eye and there's a beer in front of you. Food is always good, and you can be ensured that the check bin is not padded.
  19. Born in Scotland from Irish stock and of course of you are Scot or Irish at birth your "STAMPED FOR EXPORT" So we migrated to Australia in 1960 now an Australian Citizen Always said to my parents "the best thing out of Britain was the boat to Australia"
  20. Laem Chabang, Green Valley green valley is the cheapest and carts are not compulsory easy to walk around 1100bht get hold of some of the golf bars the haven, the golf club LK metro lewinskis they organise evrything traansport etc
  21. PBG one of my best haunts say hello to Wi and OOT for me. I have only been to Patts 3 times, but each time I learn more about the place and meet more great people. Even after only 3 trips I tend to agree that things are not the same as my 1st trip but I think thats always the case. I cannot forget when I,m home the feeling of sitting in the PBG and watching the sea and perving on the waitresses. Then maybe waiting for the freelancers to roll in and playin mind games with them. I still work and my pay is adjusted up twice a year, so aint to bad off. The ozy$ 29b pretty good I like my golf so its pretty good price wise. I have now decided to come twice a year. Admitedly as i get older it is harder to catch the eye of a stunner, so I have lowered my expectations and in doing so have had some great sex from the mature ones. GFE I quite enjoy as long as it dont go too far. Goin to the markets dinner drinks etc can be quite enjoyable for an old man. I'll be back
  22. Arrive 1015 will email Mr T cheers for that Good win by Liverpool
  23. Arriving on the 6th of November. This is the 1st time we have had to organise a lift from the airport to Pattaya. Have heard about Mr T etc etc, does anyone have a favorite or good or bad experiences?
