Typical monies paid, upon signing a lease in Pattaya
Parkwahn replied to Wannabe's topic in Expat Issues
If you pay a year upfront you well get a decent discount if you plan to stay, where I stay a guy has 14 condos he works it that way. -

Driver's Licensing - foreigner without a current license
Parkwahn replied to Wannabe's topic in Transport in Thailand
I understand you need a visa not a tourist, I had an O visa when I got mine. Get a letter from your landlord or copy of a document showing you have a lease/own a place. Get a health cert 100 baht any clinic will do one Couple of photos , then soi 5 immigration to get a proof or residence cert. Then off to Highaway 36 on Sukumvit head towards Bangkok past Hospital at flyover take 36 to Rayong, after about 8 clicks you will see on the right Regents School, take the next u turn after then come back towards Pattaya after 100 yards there is a sign turn left its 400 yads -
I am amazed anyone would be concerned about it, its another feature of a forum like many things on forums certain people tell lies if those people vote and poll others to sending PMs who cares.

I did one, went with the Sportsman 2500 but if you book 11 days in advance its 2200 .. (I seem to remember) great buses takes 8 but only 4 in ours, you get a breakfast , videos all the way there a packed lunch and a drink when you return, very good indeed only ever did one. I cant see anyone being as good as that, left at 7.00 back by 3.30pm...

If Spurs stay injury free they could go close, its rather funny as they have Adebayor from City he wont be able to play against them.. lol All the Man U fans have run off... buying their Blue City shirts I guess

I was in UK for 11 weeks on my return (single entry) I did not get 90 days, my reporting date is 90 days from the start of my retirement visa, whuch was set 8 weeks after I applied as I had 90 days on arrival on O visa, I have been told on a multi you get 90 days, but on a single you dont....

another bad experience with the Brits
Parkwahn replied to peckerwood's topic in General Discussion about Pattaya
Why did you not give him the 30 days notice ? was that not the terms ? how would you feel if he gave you two weeks notice ? You should have both agreed and understood terms, -

British Honorary Consul in Pattaya resigns
Parkwahn replied to Basil B's topic in General Discussion about Pattaya
Pity he did a great job for me getting my over 50s visa, I am never sure why he gets so much abuse ? -
How many send or have sent ?
Parkwahn replied to Parkwahn's topic in General Discussion about Pattaya
It was a thread wondering how many have sent, there is no need to be rude about the thread, I know many many girls who get sent but not many guys who send Good for you sending money to people less fortunate than you -
How many send or have sent ?
Parkwahn replied to Parkwahn's topic in General Discussion about Pattaya
Thats how I see it, each to their own -
Man Utd were exposed today as having no money, a starting line up including Evans, Welbeck, Fletcher and Anderson shows how far they are behind City. Rooney would make the City team maybe the goalkeeper and Vidic if fit , totaly outplayed by a very expensive team if you buy the best you have the best. Arsenal cant retain players starting with Ashly Cole trebling his wages to go to Chelsea, you cant blame the players but the team that buys the best players en masse will win the EPL. Look at Citys bench, scary Man Uth cant compete simple as that same as Arsenal cant co

Pattaya is a great place to see other counties, mate Singapore, Phillipines there is more to Thailand than Bukao and Nana Plaza mate.. Spread your wings :whistling: :whistling:
-
Lots to see mate get out to Khon Khean, Nong Kai, Phuket, Samui, Koh Phan Yang , Kanchaburi all great places.... Dont restrict yourself far more than Soi Bukao and Walking st. :whistling: :whistling:

Buy Or Rent A House On The Darkside
Parkwahn replied to som nam na's topic in General Discussion about Pattaya
Som nam na, you could use the rent from your condo to rent a place there, but rent is dead money if you are buying it with your girl and with you sons future in mind , could you not buy it on a Thai mortgage in your better halfs name ? A guy I know has 8 condos, he rents them out and rents a house on Darkside, all I would say is leaving condos empty is not that same as houses, crime, maintenance are issues with a house left unattended as it were. Do the numbers then see how you feel about it all.. Good luck -
The longer you stay, the people know you are an expat you may have a wife , girlfriend, girl you see who other girls call "Wife" People change, the world changes but its still a great place to spend time I am never happy leaving, even if only for 3 weeks to go back to UK .... Pattaya is like a live theatre, :nod
-
Why would they ? its a decent and valid point you make, Pattaya is best experienced as a single two weeker, its a great place for longer trips and to reside but its different. The funny thing the Pattaya bashers still visit or cant visit, If a guy cant have a relaxing time and a laugh there the issue is with the guy not Pattaya..
-
Dont go then , go somewhere more suited.. Its a great place to live and visit as for magic gone Magic is not real, they dont actually saw people half on the stage its an illusion, like a 20 year old falling in love with a guy 60 an illusion, so what enjoy the show you can play in it just make sure a Thai girl dont saw your wallet in half, thats real Not sure if Rabbits live in top hats though :clap1

6 years ago Mick the place was mobbed with farangs, I have noticed a difference but I wondered if it was as I had stayed there longer ? Also 6 years on mobile phones, sponsors change is here whether we like it or not.. Many reasons I would say, girls are looking for 2 week millionaires or guys that can maybe turned into sponsors I would say..

Just the mixing of cultures, dont seem to work too well... bet the Thais would go made if they chopped a Thai kid up .. The Burkhas could be used for bombs, one guy has just gone guilty in the states he had a bomb in his pants, caught fire never exploded on a plane from Amsterdam to America.. YOU CANT MAKE IT UP.. France wont swallow the Burkhas, Joanna Lumley wants to swallow the Ghurkas.. What a carry on...

Wait till the Ugandans get there killing children for good luck, who are we to interfere in thiet culture ...

Made me laugh how you wrote what the Thai girl said.. FAF

Never stayed there, had a few breakfasts and the odd beer a lad call Barry runs it decent chap if the rooms are anything like the bar they will be pretty good I suggest. :chogdee
