You make good points. Then again and I'm not referring to you. There are guys on this forum who are nit pickers.

I have no problem with you and others saying April is the hottest month. The end of July is still very hot.

Are you suggesting someone who lives in Thailand is infallible? I quoted a weather site that may have more accurate information then some guy who lives in Thailand and gets his weather information by sticking his head out the door. https://www.worldweatheronline.com/aboutus.aspx "We cover approximately 3 million cities/towns worldwide and our weather forecast is trusted and used by a wide variety of companies and organisations from SME's to large corporate clients. That includes Intelligent Planet, Sonitus Systems, Skydive Mag, G&D Creations, Surfcast, Weathercare and many more. Many of these companies have joined our API community which has immense benefits such as free promotion to over one million visitors that we receive each month. We currently operate two high-tech weather data centres; one situated in Denmark and the other in Germany. We also have dedicated team members working in the UK, USA and India in order to make sure that our information stays as current as possible and delivers the best possible service to all our users."

LOL. BKK is in Thailand around 60 miles north of Pattaya. If you want to argue the point. Go with it. I'll go with what I wrote. The climate in Bangkok is at its hottest from March to August with a very high humidity.

Bangkok Monthly Climate AveragesBangkok has a tropical monsoon climate and the highest average temperature of any city in the world. Temperatures in Bangkok regularly stay well above 30°C throughout the year. The humidity levels also remain high during this period and you can expect short spells of rainy weather, with frequent afternoon showers, monsoons and spells of thunder at times. The climate of Bangkok can be divided into two key parts, wet and dry.

My big mistake. I saw this on PattayaOne News site and I misread the date. I'll be more careful in the future.

Officials will host Amazing Pattaya Seafood Festival 2016 during July 29-31. PATTAYA – Recently [PattayaDailyNews]; Chonburi Provincial Administrative Organisation, Pattaya official, TAT and PBTA (Pattaya Business and Tourism Association) would hold Amazing Pattaya Seafood Festival 2016 during 29-31 July 2016. The officials aim to stimulate tourism in Pattaya and Chonburi and make the good image of tourism. There will be 150 food shops along North Pattaya beach and performances from Thai famous artists. Seafood market would be available in the event and the people can buy fresh seafood. Plus, experienced chef would cook a special dish for free. In addition, the people can take part in Gala Dinner which would be held on Pattaya beach. Special dishes would be served by famous chefs all 3 days. Seafood on the beach during the hottest month. The possibility of a mass outbreak of food poisoning is very high. So many food shops set up and so little sanitation inspections before and during the event. If I was in Pattaya, I'd avoid eating there.

Excellent prices to Asia from LAX.

They told me a few years ago to pay the bill. Get a copy in English and they would reimburse me.

I don't see the Tequila Reef Christmas dinner listed? They used to offer a very nice holiday menu.

There maybe another mail option available to US military retirees and to 100% disabled vets. This rating must be from the Veterans Administration. I was told I could receive letter mail in Bangkok. Check out: http://www.jusmagthai.com Phone Numbers 66-2-287-1036 (international) 02-287-1036 (long-distance, within Thailand)

I remember my US Army days. The military went all out to serve everyone a hot meal on the holidays. I may have missed it. Did Tequila Reef have their special Thanksgiving meal?

Embassy used to provide these services at no charge. When the State Department budget was cut. Fees came into play as a revenue replacement. Trump wants to reduce taxes. You can expect the fees to rise.

TREENAI CHANSRICHOL Construction of two roads through Noen Pha Suk village began three years ago, starting from opposite directions. They were supposed to meet somewhere in the middle. They didn't. Please join us on our Facebook page http://www.facebook.com/bangkokpostlearning Misaligned road in Si Racha raises eyebrowsTreenai Chansrichol CHON BURI – Residents of Noen Pha Suk village in tambon Nong Kham of Si Racha district have been puzzled by the fact that what is supposed to be a road through their community has turned out to be two, of which ends do not meet properly. Construction of the two roads began three years ago, starting from opposite directions. They were supposed to meet somewhere in the middle, seamlessly creating one long road. But this was not the case. The problem stemmed from the fact that each of the roads was built by a different municipality – Laem Chabang and Chao Phraya Surasak. When the administrators of the two municipalities met on Monday at the spot where the two roads were supposed to meet, they agreed that the junction was under the jurisdiction of the latter. They also learned that the owners of two plots of land through which the roads were built had refused to transfer it to be public property, so the municipality was not able to make adjustments to make sure their ends meet properly. At the request of the municipality, the land owners had agreed to transfer the part of land on which the roads were built to be public property. Adjustments to the two roads to make their ends properly adjoined would be made after a land transfer transfer Meaning: to officially arrange for someone else to be the owner of something Thai Translation: โอน Learn more paper has been signed by the two owners, said Supong Panchalermchai, the mayor of Chao Phraya Surasak Municipality. A question which remains unanswered is why the two roads were not built to meet in alignment in the first place. http://www.bangkokpost.com/learning/advanced/1096908/unhappy-ending-for-si-racha-roads

Not at this time.

Tequila Reef on soi 7 is known for hosting special events like the Super Bowl. Since it's American owned (I think) he might be interested in opening early.

Sabai Inn has a great location on Soi 2.
