Displayed prices are for multiple nights. Check the site for price per night. I see hostels starting at 200b/day and hotels from 500b/day on agoda.

I like that ,but its just an old "Irish " joke that's been rewritten.
-
Most Brits will get it no problem as the joke used to be about 2 Pakistanis 30+ years ago.

I understand that I have an special wish for a chair ,but it was an honest question, as When I was young and had to live in furnished bedsits here in the UK, I either had a comfy(sometimes not so comfy) Chair on its own or a chair and a sofa depending on how big the space was .I never had only a Sofa, mind you I also only ever had a single bed in those rooms, so I really wondered if it was a Thai thing. PS I have had to put up with Sofas on all those occassions when I rented a condo in Pattaya as I never thought it worth the trouble when it was only for a holiday rent ,even when it was a 4 month holiday, because I could have a massage every day if I wanted .
-
This I can understand ,but I would not have it that way in anyplace I owned or rented,I would have a fold up for drunk mates or a blow up matress and still have a comfy chair to ease my poor back .
-
I grant you that both of those are an option ,but I have a bad back so a comfy chair is a blessing.I just wondered thats all because I would never have a couch before I had a good chair ,though I am happy to have a couch as well but not instead of.
-
This is just a general question about Thai furnishings in condos in general .Why does there always seem to be a sofa but never an individual easy chair. I think this condo is beautifuly furnished, from what I can see, but how can anyone come home and relax on a couch?.
-
Yes you guessed it im not fat im just about 4feet too short.Still if I was my correct weight for my height I would be too long in the leg for these to fit anyway.

What do you call a half sized fridge? The one I see in the pics is a normal all over the world,except in the USA, under the counter fridge.

Assuming ,and I know that to assume anything in Thailand is to get into trouble,that the building is freehold and I can own it with a company ,then the only thing would be to haggle for a better price ,although its not out of the question its £220,000 as near as damit and at that price you could probably make a good living if there was a good occupancy and that was recorded. And to keep things real for the fisherman,I did look at buying a business in Pattaya but the big thing that stopped me was not the low returns on capital or even the need to have a company own any property ,no it was the fall of the £ and the fact that it dropped from 71 to 52 overnight ,well it seemed that way to me,and that just made the idea pointless as I would have had to work hard in Pattaya to earn a living ,and that was not the point of moving there in the first place.Having said that ,I see no problem highlighting problems for others to consider,just as I highlighted the claim of open space that one bar seller was touting ,as the pavement outside .
-
To be honest I thought that $25,000 was cheap so I got the calculator out and its actually £47,229 at todays exchange rate(45.615 to £)and thats $74,051 (29.709 to $)And at that price I would want a lot more than some furniture and dubious goodwill for my money.

At a 40 inch waist I would be considered very slim.

HOT PRICE Studio 33 sqm. Central Pattaya For Sale
sinbinjack replied to condostreet's topic in The Market
I have stayed there many times and though it is an OK place to rent ,I have heard so many owners complain about the building management that I would think twice about buying there before the court battle ,unless it has been resolved ,is resolved,and the building is under much better new management. Given that I am wary of buying because of the management ,if that has been resolved I would consider buying there as its a good price and the unit is big enough for a single old man who is only there for a few months of the year and is trying to downsize in any case. -
The one time I had a problem with a girl in Pattaya I was staying at this place (it was 3/4 years ago)I called the night manager who came up and got her out of my room with minimum fuss ,so It was a big plus to me that I was staying there when the problem occurred.

Subject: Racism Everyone seems to be in such a hurry to scream 'racism' these days. A customer asked, "In what aisle could I find the Irish Sausage?" The clerk asks, "Are you Irish?" The guy, clearly offended, says, "Yes I am.. But let me ask you something. "If I had asked for Italian sausage, would you ask me if I was Italian? Or if I had asked for German Bratwurst, would you ask me if I was German? Or if I asked for a kosher hot dog would you ask me if I was Jewish? Or if I had asked for a Taco, would you ask if I was Mexican? Or if I asked for Polish sausage, would you ask if I was Polish?" The clerk says, "No, I probably wouldn't." The guy says, "Well then, because I asked for Irish sausage, why did you ask me if I'm Irish?" The clerk replied, "Because you're in Halfords."

I don't know the answer to your question but ,I do know that sometime in 2015 your green paper license will become obsolete ,so you had best get a move on in changing it for a photo licence soon.It is also a good photo ID to have as most people who want ID accept ypour Photo License as ID,much more useful than the green thing.

Tough-Harley-Guy Legend... On January 9th, a group of Pekin, Illinois bikers were riding west on I-74 when they saw a girl about to jump off the MurrayBakerBridge. So they stopped. George, their leader, a big burly man of 53, gets off his Harley, walks through a group of gawkers, past the State Trooper, and says to the girl, "What are you doing?" She says, "I'm going to commit suicide." While he didn't want to appear "sensitive," he didn't want to miss a be-a-legend opportunity either so he asked ... "Well, before you jump, why don't you give me a kiss?" So, with no hesitation at all, she leaned back over the railing and did just that ... and it was a long, deep, lingering kiss followed immediately by another one. After they finished, George gets approval from his biker-buddies, the onlookers, and even the State Trooper, and says, "Wow! That was the best kiss I have ever had, Honey! That's a real talent you're wasting there, Sugar Shorts. You could be famous if you rode with me. Why are you committing suicide?" "My parents don't like me dressing up like a girl." It's still unclear whether she jumped or was pushed.

Do you spend many nights alone in Pattaya?
sinbinjack replied to Butch's topic in General Discussion about Pattaya
Only if you want to.That would be my answer to you,but is that the answer you wanted to hear or is there another reason behind this question. Are you worried that as a singleton you will feel lonely? if you are alone at home then you will probably feel alone in LOS as its mostly about how outgoing you are that gets you company of the Guys ,The girls on the other hand could care less about your personality ,buy a few lady drinks(not too many or you will be thought of as stupid and taken to the cleaners)and the world of the Pattaya bar girl is your oyster.Plenty of blokes in Pattaya are in the same boat ,being on their own,and are almost always willing to chat to a fellow monger in the many bars that make up Pattaya so you will not be alone for long if you make a little effort. -
See, thats you getting with the programme,and adding a little acid.
-
In my own case I see stuff that makes me see red ,like when a guy was selling a bar and described the pavement outside which was not owned by him as "outside space",but still included some of that space in his estimate of the bars size. In other cases I might have been interested but the Facts as stated did not seem to corelate with things that are of the real world.

If you found those girls boring ,why have I not read of your death on these pages. Merry Xmas

" In the story of Cinderella, bizarrely the glass slipper doesn’t revert back to its normal form, if it did the story wouldn’t work. Similarly, whilst a courgette may more closely resemble the size and shape of a tampon, the joke wouldn’t work, because the tampon reverting back to a courgette would only cause Cinderella fairly mild inconvenience. " Whats bizzare about it?,in all the cases of things changing back the reason is magic,in the shoes there is no magic as they are given whole to Cinderella by the fairy godmother so do not change. As the tale has had hundreds of years to get it right,little things have been sorted many years ago.

Deck Overlooking Gulf of Thailand - Fully Equipped Fitness Centre - M&F Changing Rooms - Sauna - 24 Hour Security System with Specific Floor Access Card Offer Price at 4.2 M Baht (All of these types sold) What was the point of this ad when it clearly says "Offer Price at 4.2 M Baht (All of these types sold) " or am I missing something. -
I have to say that even with my bad legs and back it was am enjoyable half day out,I don't think it requires more to see all of the place than that but it well worthwhile making the trip at least once.I just ride my Bike over there so for me getting there was not any hardship,but as has been said using baht buses and moto taxis it no hardship getting there. PS that was a good video.
