I thought that I would share my recent reading with you. I came across these books when I was last in Thailand and they were in fact presented to me by a fellow guest at my hotel. I am fairly sure he felt that I needed them as he was well aware that I had a Thai lady living with me and saw this as a way of warning me in to the possible consequences. In retrospect, he was reasonably on the money! The two books are: Thai Private Eye & Confessions of a Bangkok Private Eye. The author is a New Zealander called Warren Olsen who has now left Thailand and is an academic in his home count

Wherever it is there must be some applause for the reply to this question. Thanks for sharing. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

I was having issues logging on and this came as surprise to me. I was however thinking of names for this place. How about: Butt I Love You. Goldfinger Massage. Cultivate the Prostate. Come--Again--and Again. Wholesale Massage. The options are endless!

Not sure about that. For instance Budget Baked beans are half the price of "Premium" beans and as they are canned on the same production line, is buying them cheap or frugal? If I opt to buy the budget one then surely I am endangering the livelihoods of the people working for the premium brands? Most countries have a great amount of people who have to live frugally to have an existenceand I am sure that they wouldnt understand the distinction of buying cheap and being frugal when all they want to do is survive.

Yup, another great news update worth a read.

It was a funny old night in Pattaya. Sure there was drink being sold before midnight but the clubs were filling up awaiting the starters pistol. I was in Sugar Baby and it was a rip roaring start to the Wednesday however walking around town it was a game of two halves. Soi Diamond was quiet other than Windmill which was pumping. I was also in Sensations which was also chocka. A number of places didnt open and some were empty. I ended the night back in Soi LK via the Cherry Bar where Skygod was in conference. The night as usual ended with a monster bill at Showgirls where I was accused by

Thanks for the write up and the letter in Thai. I had problems explaining the closure to Kennika so gave her the letter to read. Thankfully I can catch up on the computer and she can do the house work!

As usual a good read and great to start the day with a laugh. Where is the place that has the Friday night music show or is that a secret? Question. According to this forum the cost of nooky in Pattaya is soaring. If so why is it so popular with the Indians? Perhaps they are negotiating a bulk deal?

I would imagine that some of the England supporters will take comfort from the following. It has oft been said that a World Cup is unlike any other event and that in a situation like this the form guide is rather useless except in the broader sense. I am sure that the Japanese and now the English will agree with this. Also, the "All Black number two teams". Tonga and Samoa have had a miserable cup as well. New Zealand usually start favorite but they have been dumped out a lot more times than they have won so there is some truth here.

Thanks Atlas. As is well known I only go Long Time so it is no use to me.

I have to believe that in the long term this could be a good move providing that there are sufficient destinations and the infrastructure of a shuttle service for instance to get passengers to and from the place. This seems to have always been an issue . One of the great joys of visiting Thailand for me has been the ability to have cheap flights to all over Asia. This changed when Air Asia moved to Don Muang and since that date I haven't used them.

Just another add on to my comments about what could be the culprit. For years I would religiously keep a bottle of water in the bathroom for washing my toothbrush. I now just wash it under the tap so I guess any greeblies in the water could come, in my case, from there. I stopped guessing where the ice I get in drinks came from ages ago as well.

Thanks for the links guys. All these years and I have never bothered but I can see that it can be quite addictive.

Last two times in Pattaya I have had an upset stomach but it didnt really impact on the holiday. I am always conscious that when I am in Pattaya I have all sorts of strange things in my mouth and therefore never try to point the blame in any one area. As an instance of the above I take the odd dose of Kamagara and I like eating pussy. I used to blame the food but I realise that I am my own worst enemy and also get kissy kissy with the odd gogo dancer. There are simply too many possible causes for me to ever pin down the real culprit. I am also a draft beer drinker and some of that stuff

Hi there. I opened a Kasikorn account in Pattaya and find it a great help. It is also so easy to slip into the zip pocket at night should I run out of cash. I am pleased that I use Kasikorn as there are so many ATM's and it costs nothing to withdraw using the banks own machines. One thing I do not suggest is that you change your overseas funds there as the rate is crap compared to places like TT Exchange. I also don't suggest that you transfer in from your home bank as the joint fees from both banks can be quite expensive. I have however tried all the options just to see if they worked and wou

Bugger! Missed out but see you next month.

Can I suggest that you read between the lines as well as the Headline News. There is no doubt that the top end girls have raised the rates but there is still a massive range of prices and opportunities available. Beer bars still have 300/400 baht bar fines and 1000 baht LT fees. Just a week ago a number of go go bars in LK had a 2 for 1 happy hour and there are 2 for one beer places all over town. Then there is the food. My Thai GF loves to go to out favourite noodle bar where a large bowl with meat will cost you 35 baht with free water included. I can also get a great English breakfas

A good read as always. My eyes were drawn to the following. The decision by Bamboo Bar to increase toilet charges from 3 to 5 baht still seems to be a hot potato. Though it may seem trivial to some, we should be mindful of the fact that the average Bamboo Bar punter has to take a piss every five minutes. As is well know the piss is taken everywhere in Pattaya on a second by second basis. Also, Thai logic would dictate a 20 baht fee if people were taking a piss every five minutes!

The way that things are going I will not be able to afford to fly Auckland to Bangkok with Thai Air. The prices at the moment have shot up to unacceptable levels. I was able to get a reasonable flight for my next visit but have had to switch for the one following. The last time I flew however the plane was full so perhaps in this case they are cashing in on their success. I can only hope that they stay as they are the only airline that flies direct.

I guess that if you want to keep an eye on what is happening while your in Pattaya then Tapatalk springs to mind and it is now free. I dont want or need it when I am not in Pattaya and being free I can dump and install as needed. I do like having Hotel California as my ring tone so Zedge is a great site for all sorts. I did install a voice recorder so that I could make notes on bars and gogo's but as I get pissed I forget to use it but it is Smart Voice Recorder.

Last night was my first night on the Freeview site. I took the lap top to bed so that I could watch for the first time in over 30 years Cleopatra with Elizabeth Taylor. It has actually got better with age.

Just want to thank the OP. I didnt know that this existed but have wasted a lot of time on it and have enjoyed it.

The rest of the story (as per a well known Pattaya publication: "...and as pissed off as a mad hornet she went back to her falang boyfriend in his hotel room. She repeatedly kicked him in the nuts till he fell screaming to the floor. She then took out a very blunt knife from the kitchen drawers and slowly, deliberately, cruelly and with total satisfaction cut his cock off and ran from the unit with the bloody knife and his cock still in her hands." "Miss Thangaporn was arrested a few hours later and charged with stealing a kitchen knife."

I too have enjoyed all the Flashman, Nick Stone and Lee Child as he is published. Having said that I love the novel of Philip Kerr and Quintin Jardine and have read everything that they have written. If you have an interest in war era stories and very good writing get into Philip Kerr's Bernie Gunther novels a soon as possible. Having said all of that my daily Pattaya read is abut ten years old and I am loving it. It is A short history of almost everything"" by Bill Bryson who's books and writing are as good as it gets,
