  1. I noticed that once again Eva cancelled BR067 and BR068 yesterday, this is twice on a Wednesday in recent times. Maybe if loadings are light they cancel the flight and transfer the pax to TG. I fly out on Tuesday and return a week on Wednesday and I noticed on seatcounter plenty of room. Any comments
  2. cheers rains I am OK for time with a 8am pick up, my flight is not until 1250pm. I just like to check in 3 hours before and spend it in the lounge, hic!
  3. I enquired to Ma Maison about rates, and they e-mailed back that they have reserved a very nice standard rom for me Just to add some fuel to the SS war thats going on, I have stayed there twice, once a suite about 7th floor, IMHO not worth the money, it is just 2 adjoining rooms. Last trip i got a room on 2nd floor, standard but quite large, very clean and OK. I would stay SS again but my room at MaMaison works out around 2000 cheaper over the week, there will be no shortage of takers to get their little hands on that.
  4. I have not used Mr Toom before but I am considering using him next week. Just to clarify, is it 1200 each way including tolls? Also is the return service from Hotel to BKK reliable as I want an 8am pick up? TIA
  5. Anyone know the difference between standard and superior rooms at Ma Maison? I have looked at the web site and the items listed are the same, i can only think the Superior is ground floor and larger. Before I stayed in a superior, it was OK but nothing special. I may try the standard which is 900. TIA
  6. My usual agents Ours Travel were not too helpful so I have just emailed west east travel, office now closed. Hopefully about £407 inc tax plus free national express tickets plus my lounge access at LHR and BKK, but no miles on this deal. I am a big chap and have never had a problem with the entertainment boxes under the seat in front, but then again I do know which row to sit in Lock up your daughters, I'm on my way soon
  7. Their is a special Eva fare from LHR-BKK 12-14th June, works out £407 inc tax with WestEast, which is £265+142 tax. Strangely, Travelmood say £260 +179.60 tax, tax is confirmed because they have reduced it by 30p No miles on this fare but I may still give it a go, just going to see if the coup makes any difference to Thai affairs, I would assume nobody in Pats will even know about it
  8. telmah I am also a big guy but fly economy with Eva. Elite is not so good as Evergreen used to be. Save your money for more important things Going during this time of the year the flight may not be over crowded anyway, have a great time.
  9. The free night at the Landmark is worth 60-70 quid, handy for Nana as well
  10. Typical of the Thais, have a very long road called Sukhumvit and no place at the end of it Maybe the road between Lands End and John O' Groats could be re-named Sukhumvit.
  11. I have just noticed that Wednesdays BR067 and BR 068 have been cancelled. Maybe the aircraft has gone tech or the weather is not too good. Even the Taipae-Bangkok leg cancelled. Commiserations to any BMs on tonights BR 068, hopefully you'll get bumped onto TG.
  12. Guys, I just bought a Canon A710is for my next trip to LOS after problems with my Pentax Optio on more than one occasion. I have a small user guide plus a CD for an advanced user guide but I cannot find what I am looking for(U2) On the right hand side of the LCD monitor is a hand which does not disappear after a few seconds like the other info. Any of you guys know what the hand means or does? TIA
  13. I didn't see Adam air or Phuket air mentioned Probably Adam Air have crashed all their aircraft
  14. Cheers guys, nothing is sacred anymore, I even looked on a google earth type site and saw the 2 seats in my back garden, one with a cushion and one without. I wasn't around but I also saw a Black SUV parked on my drive, Help!!!
  15. Some times I inadvertantly find myself on a porno site or two Then a new window comes up saying that girls in my town are looking for some fun etc How does big brother know where I am?
  16. Weren't air Asia going to fly to London gatwick for very low prices? Seems to have gone quiet.

    Sounds a great idea to me Different airlines have different rules, I have around 10K AA which I am never likely to use, but EVA I could always use more
  18. Tom If you are still in samui on Saturday night go to the Thai lady boxing in Lamai, it is brilliant. I have been several times and never been disappointed, it is a great night. It is advertised at starting at 22-00 but starts around 22-30, usually 6 bouts, 2 men, 3 lady and 1 katoey. The girls fighting work at the bars surrounding the ring, so when a girl from a particular bar is fighting you can imagine the mayhem caused by her supporters who work bar. Did you notice that USM is having a new terminal built, I took some good piccies but my SD card became corrupted. Have a good time, b
  19. Tom I bet you are not a cheap charlie and staying in the 999 rooms. I can imagine you in a deluxe sea front. Do the departing aircraft come right over your roof? Have a great time
  20. torre, Bullshitters, it takes one to know one Thank you for your opinions, unfortunately we can all be wrong now and again, as you are now. Next time I come to Pattaya I will come to your bar and buy you a drink and you can grill me as much as you like, and you will soon come to the conclusion that I am not a bullshitter. I am just a complex person and you do not understand complexity. I forget all of the points you raised but I will try and explain as eloquently as I can. In the UK when you reach 60 you can move into sheltered housing, in my case I can move into Martin Court in m
  21. Yes, I work for myself looking after sportsgrounds and a few gardens, so it is quite nice in the summer, but this winter i took it really bad in the UK. This is surprising as November and February were spent in LOS Christmas was a nightmare, I had the Blues big time, I never even went out for a drink, Xmas eve, christmas Day lunch or New Years eve. On the infamous skygod thread I can remember him posting an image of UK women in his pub on New Years eve, I would rather stay in I forgot that I am due my pension as well from 2011 I think I will go out in November and see what comes
  22. First of all guys, many thanks for all the informative replies, this is pattayatalk at it's best. Unfortunately there are too many tips to reply to each one but the general concensus is I will not have enough money. I accept your findings 100% as I do spend money rather easily, massage here massage there etc etc and also I was shocked to see how the GBP has nosedived against the baht, now 63.30. I think it was Ben who made a good point about going for 5 years until I have shagged myself into senility One option I have been thinking about is to stay in the UK in the summer and pe
  23. ian You may need to pop into the internet cafe and book on-line, then print out your e-ticket. I am not sure if Air Asia are going to start using the old airport later this month.
  24. bigjl Smoking and Drinking won't take your money, it's the girls One major reason that flights are more expensive this year is that Gordon Brown whacked a chunk on tickets for UK guys, plus the Thai departure tax is now included in your ticket price and that is now 800 I believe. Also some airlines introduced fuel surcharges last year and now the prices have fallen the airlines are suffering from insomnia. My Eva flight was only £375, with £139 added for various charges.
