Renting bicycles in Pattaya??
sinbinjack replied to galt67's topic in General Discussion about Pattaya
4500baht seems a bit much as here(UK) there selling mountain bikes at £49.99(3600baht)not the greatest bikes I agree but more than good enough to get around pattaya for a few weeks or months -
what sort of prices do they charge cause I was thinking of taking my own rod and bits and pieces as i'm going for 2months but if its cheap enough I might buy some new stuff
-
just take lots of money dont make no never mind as long as its lots and lots of money and you will be the most hansum of men

hi dajan17 i personaly would not come to pattaya if i was in your position unless I had a good reason to be there, like family or friends in the area,there are many much more suitable places with nice beaches in thailand that are better for "a holiday" than pattaya I am 54 so not the younger set and most of the guys I meet up with are my age or older(there are some youngsters but not very many) but we are not there "to holiday"we go to pattaya for its other charms.The hotels that are budget priced are in the main not what I think you would call "respectable"and only the higher priced hotels and resorts discourage "guests" I think that you may be happier in Phuket or Koh Samui which are much more the "holiday"scene as the beaches in pattaya and jontiem are not the best(I think blackpool beach is cleaner,tho colder)and if you want to spend time on the beach and in the sea I wouldn't try that here.I have no wish to frighten you away if you are determined to come,but come with your eyes open

best place to shop for gems/semi-precious stones
sinbinjack replied to dani305's topic in General Discussion about Pattaya
HI why would you want to buy stones in thailand like cowboysasys its cheaper in USA and even cheaper in amsterdam(and there you can get quality guarantee's so it must be somthing other than price might it be lack of import taxes and vat so you can make some money back in farang land well i do hope you are successful but unless you know a whole lot about precious and semi-precious stones you will get shafted so as they said in ancient rome caveat emptor(buyer beware) good luck SINBINJACK -

If you take the regular bus you have to get there and that means a cab and thats extra and as he's allready at the dynasty its much more convenient and will take him in to the heart of pattaya

sinbinjack replied to hangin's topic in General Discussion about Pattaya
hi hangin I like the LEK hotel on soi 13 and 2nd road good pool the new wing will run you 1000/1800 depending on size of room and time of year(you are going low season)the old wing which is where i stay is more than adequate goes for 700/800 and is very girl friendly its a great location and a great hotel IMHO. checkhotel reviews for more info -
Hotel Reviews from my last trip - BKK and PTY
sinbinjack replied to x4p3gsu's topic in Hotel and Accommodation Questions
hi x4p3gsu I dont know if the staff have changed a lot at the LEK since july last year but when i stayed there they were one of the reasons I liked the place so much and when i left my swimming trunks there when i left for Bangkok and gave them a call they went out of there way to send them on to me same day no charge so maybe you expect too much or they didn't like you for some reason it is thailand after all chock dee sinbinjack -

Some of us who are larger than the norm have little choice but to travel economy and so far I have had no real problems with scheduled airlines, but I have been very unhappy when i made the mistake of not paying the extra £20 to book the extra legroom seats on a charter flight

-
i booked thai only a few days ago and i would be spitting feathers at the lower price except the dates of my flight are outside of the ethiad time frame

glad to be of help jambo if you check forum when you get there we can meet for a drink
-
when i was there last may i had no real problems with the heat and i weighed in at about 375lbs then if you drink plenty (not alchohol)and wear light clothing then it should be allright,spend a lot of time in as well as by the pool and stay out of the direct sun and get plenty of rest as the heat tires you very fast one more suggestion indoor bars have for the most part AC outdoor bars dont so if your getting warm get inside and have some fun
