I think that Nicky's is one of the best all round restaurants in town, and have never been disappointed with the food that I have been served there. I found myself having dinner there almost every day, on my last trip. The only, very small complaint was the air temperature, and I am not sure that it is fully airconed inside, but not unbearable by any means. Massive portions of food as well, which even I could not always manage, but better too much than too little. My missus also said the Thai food was good.

I heard the Geckos, small lizards have there uses for easting mosqitos I have a few of them as residents when I lived in Phuket, and they never caused any problems. I dont know where they were defacating though. More than a few times, my companions for the night, would leave their shoes outside, which became overnight accomodation for frogs

Great pictures, definately a place I would like to visit What is this BTW ? It looks a bit medieval

I like this

Fixed fo you

He is still at large by the looks of it.

Nice picks, Is Kaoh San Road still very much a backpackers area ? Looks very different to what I remember, but then its been a few years since I went there

Absolutely and they provide a completely false sense of security Never seen a lollipop lady in Thailand either where there are nearby schools.

I have always been amazed at what we call in UK, Zebra crossings in Pattaya. There is almost no regard for them by vehicle users and are probably just as dangerous as any other part of the road. They appear to be cosmetic. Its different here, we have to stop if someone has left the pavement and using the crossing, and the penalties are very high for not doing so, if you hit a pedestrian on a crossing. That vid look very scary by not at all surprising. I am aware of the crossing on 2nd Road where you take your life into your own hands just hoping that traffic will stop for you. Sometimes it do

Smashing pics, thanks for sharing

Seems a bit steep to me. Is it one of the larger top end place ? I can understand a deposit on line to cover a booking but 10K in either case seems rather excessive

Same here

Yep, and that applies to "Senders" as well. I don't care what other people spend their money on, as long as its not my money, why should I care.

test Yeah, this one did not hang

I am still having exactly the same probs as before, ie Hanging after sending a post. Does it every time. My settings this end have not changed

I take my own.

Yeah, the bastards I use Tescos carrier bags.

Happening every time for me, but I am expecting it for the time being and just click refresh and my post is there. Just a bit annoying. No problem when editing though, all normal.

Reminds me of Sin City

I have been hung 9 times already and still alive

Yes, editing seems to work fine, Its just the first post that hangs, but is there on refresh/reload.

So that's 4 times 500 baht =2000 baht. That is very generous

Testing EDIT Post still hanging on "saving post" but post visible
