  1. doesn't look sturdy enough for those holiday weekends when beach road is full of stalls and pedestrians.
  2. how about the next big storm. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vmCBwATzDjA
  3. I wouldn't trust a random place in Tukcom either. It's filled with cheats and those that haven' a clue.
  4. not like getting a 4k tv and moaning about the lack of content available.
  5. So, besides being new and unfamiliar (which is a positive trait in itself) what does EI offer that is new and interesting? Do you run windows VIII?
  6. Worst case scenario is you buy in advance and take your girl to the beach.
  7. I was thinkin' more-so that an increase in wholesale booze prices doesn't mean a similar increase in bar prices is warranted. I think the bars are as pleased as punch when I order a Sang Som w coke or vodka/lipo over a Chang.
  8. it's not like you can't get booze or find places to drink at if you really want to.
  9. I do it both ways and it doesn't work. As I mentioned, I can sometimes do it but lately, no. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RzBM34cEyUU http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RzBM34cEyUU
  10. and at 25 ml a pour that costs the bar about 13.5 baht a drink.
  11. A 750 ml (26 ounce) bottle of cheap local whisky is ~ 800 baht (27$) at home.
  12. England and Thailand silly. When the restaurant is full of whities I know I've made a miss step, no different than going to a Chinky. We prefer authentic foods and don't claim to own nor alter foods like the English do. We describe restaurants as authentic or not no matter the style. If I want a Mexican I don't go to Taco Bell. MM's threads on Indian food look good unlike the Butcher's Arm's gruel on this thread.
  13. True, but if the same thing happened to you who would you blame more, the Thai hotelier or the Chinese tour operator?
  14. I know there's a billion of 'em but is there no end to their scams?
  15. Less authentic with less variety. Somewhat industrial tbh.
  16. Things seem to change for me all the time. I can embed youtube on another forum run with IP board software but this one didn't let me do it the last few times I tried. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RzBM34cEyUU
  17. Must be an error ....the pound aint worth more than 40 baht
  18. There are a number of guest houses available under 1000 baht near 76th street just off the main road (Phetkasem). Everything is nearby including the beach the Night Market and a shopping mall with a theatre.
  19. The night market is worth a look as is the Kings summer residence. http://www.huahin.bangkok.com/hua-hin/night-market.htm http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cg7uaddf7eU
  20. I've always thought that the airlines were more flexible than this. Why fly a 400 seater that's empty? Cancel the flight or use/rent another aircraft. And why was your baggage delayed? Might it have been the Swampy authorities reducing staff?
  21. That's why the girls want to stay all day. They get fed and prefer your hotel to their dorm.
