Where does it come from and how to make sure it doesn't keep happening. I was reading somewhere that the ships that pass are dumping all their garbage over the side but for this to be the cause there would have to be thousands of ships dumping garbage. There is so much of it.

Never knew that, cheers pal.

Not simple, can you explain?

I've used this service many times, the one from across the road diagonally from Tukcom and there is one across the road from Walking st. When I first started using them it was 140baht but there is competition now and prices have dropped. One thing I am a wee bit apprehensive about is the speed of some of them but in my experience there are some good and careful drivers but recently there have been a few accidents involving vans probably not the ones we are talking about but tragic none the less. I remember once I got in the van and it was packed with girls going back to work after their holidays a long weekend, they were all speaking Thai so I put my headphones on and enjoyed the ride. I like to sit in the front or the seat next to the door, quick exit in case of emergency.

Thanks pal

Does anyone know if the renovations are finished in this hotel yet? Not far from the entrance to Walking Street.

True Move, thanks mate.

Good idea thanks, I'll look into that when I come back.

Honey lodge, basic rooms, like the last poster said musty but clean and the real attraction is the location, just across the road from Walking St, I think this hotel is excellent value if you can put up with the basic rooms, I'll be trying to book up there for my next trip in December. Very quiet as well at nights as it is set back from the. main road.

A very racist post, there's good & bad in any country, no use pigeon holing people because they come from a certain country, I'm a Scotsman living in Australia and the Brits call the Aussies arrogant. different perspectives. I just enjoy myself when I'm overseas on holiday and certainly do not look for trouble. I haven't seen a lot of trouble in my trips to Pattaya but I've read about a lot. One incident did come to mind though in Soi7 I was having a few beers and could easily have got in 2 or 3 fights with Englishmen had I not been able to calm the situation. I have some American friends and they are big spenders in the bars, maybe that's why the Americans are so popular

But if he did it he's where he belongs

Well! If you're in Pattaya the best place is the Soi Buakauo markets, I bought a lot of Thai music CDs there and always got the latest around the bars, I've got heaps of them.

If you have utorrent on your comp you can also get ''Thai pop'' from btjunkie.

Best thing to do is to download Limewire and search from there.

Can you please tell me is this the way to Walmart?

I feel sick, can you make sure if you are posting ladyboy pics not to include ones with dicks.

Thanks for all the replies

Fanx Cheshire Tom, that's what I wanted to know.

My brother asked me tonight. He's never been interested in Thailand until now. He's thinking about coming at Xmas 2009. I'm living in Australia so I don't know and can only estimate what it costs so I thought I'd ask people who knew, just wanted a quick answert is all.

You still never answered the question.

how much does it cost for a flight from London to Bangkok

MESSAGE FROM THE QUEEN After due consideration of the mess the USA has gotten itself into, the QUEEN has made an important decision : To the citizens of the United States of America from Her Sovereign Majesty Queen Elizabeth II In light of your failure in recent years to nominate competent candidates for President of the USA and thus to govern yourselves, and your failure to ensure that the Finance Industry is sound, we hereby give notice of the revocation of your independence, effective immediately. (You should look up 'revocation' in the (Oxford English Dictionary.) Her Sovereign Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II, will resume Monarchical duties over all states, commonwealths, and territories (except Kansas, which she does not fancy) . Your new Prime Minister, Gordon Brown, will appoint a Governor for America without the need for further elections. Congress and the Senate will be disbanded. {A questionnaire may be circulated next year to determine whether any of you noticed.} To aid in the transition to a British Crown dependency, the following rules are introduced with immediate effect: ----------------------- 1. The letter 'U' will be reinstated in words such as 'colour,' 'favour,' 'labour' and 'neighbour.' Likewise, you will learn to spell 'doughnut' without skipping half the letters, and the suffix '-ize' will be replaced by the suffix '-ise.' Generally, you will be expected to raise your vocabulary to acceptable levels. (look up 'vocabulary'). ------------------------ 2. Using the words ''like' and 'you know' in conversation more often than any other words in a sentence, is an unacceptable and inefficient form of communication. There is no such thing as U.S. English. We will let Microsoft know on your behalf. The Microsoft spell-checker will be adjusted to take into account the reinstated letter 'u'' and the elimination of '-ize.' ------------------- 3. July 4th will no longer be celebrated as a holiday. ----------------- 4. You will learn to resolve personal issues without using guns, lawyers, or therapists. The fact that you need so many lawyers and therapists shows that you're not quite ready to be independent. Guns should only be used for shooting grouse. If you can't sort things out without suing someone or speaking to a therapist, then you're not ready to shoot grouse. ---------------------- 5. Therefore, you will no longer be allowed to own or carry anything more dangerous than a vegetable peeler. Although a permit will be required if you wish to carry a vegetable peeler in public. ---------------------- 6. All intersections will be replaced with roundabouts, and you will start driving on the left side with immediate effect. At the same time, you will go metric with immediate effect and without the benefit of conversion tables. Both roundabouts and metrication will help you understand the British sense of humour. -------------------- 7. The former USA will adopt UK prices on petrol (which you have been calling gasoline) of roughly $10/US gallon. Get used to it. ------------------- 8. You will learn to make real chips. Those things you call French fries are not real chips, and those things you insist on calling potato chips are properly called crisps. Real chips are thick cut, fried in animal fat, and dressed not with catsup but with vinegar. ------------------- 9. The cold, tasteless stuff you insist on calling beer is not actually beer at all. Henceforth, only proper British Bitter will be referred to as beer, and European brews of known and accepted provenance will be referred to as Lager. South African beer is also acceptable, as they are pound for pound the greatest sporting nation on earth and it can only be due to the beer. They are also part of the British Commonwealth - see what it did for them. American brands will be referred to as Near-Frozen Gnat's Urine, so that all can be sold without risk of further confusion. --------------------- 10. Hollywood will be required occasionally to cast English actors as good guys. Hollywood will also be required to cast English actors to play English characters. Watching Andie Macdowell attempt English dialogue in Four Weddings and a Funeral was an experience akin to having one's ears removed with a cheese grater. --------------------- 11. You will cease playing American football. There is only one kind of proper football; you call it soccer. Those of you brave enough will, in time, be allowed to play rugby (which has some similarities to American football, but does not involve stopping for a rest every twenty seconds or wearing full kevlar body armour like a bunch of nancies). --------------------- 12. Further, you will stop playing baseball. It is unreasonable to host an event called the World Series for a game which you do not allow teams outside of America to participate in. Since only 2.1% of you are aware there is a world beyond your borders, your error is understandable. You will learn cricket, and we will let you face the South Africans first to take the sting out of their deliveries. -------------------- 13. You must tell us who killed JFK. It's been driving us mad. ----------------- 14. An Inland (not Internal) Revenue agent (i.e. tax collector) from Her Majesty's Government will be with you shortly to ensure the acquisition of all monies due (backdated to 1776). --------------- 15. Daily Tea Time begins promptly at 4 p.m. with proper cups, with saucers, and never mugs, with high quality biscuits (not cookies) and cakes; plus strawberries and cream. God Save the Queen! PS: Only share this with friends who have a good sense of humour (NOT humor)!
