  1. I went into Hooters 2 days ago about 5pm. It was fairly busy, but not buzzing. I asked about Xmas day dinner reservations and one of the staff came over and took my booking. I was concerned she wasn't writing it down, but she did confirm it back to me verbally. I decided to have a cranberry juice (80b and very good) and just chill a bit. About 10 minutes later, the Rubenesque bartender who I'd given my reservation to came back with a notebook where she wrote my reservation request from memory, then read it back to confirm she'd got it right. All in all, I was pleasantly surprise
  2. Well, it's that time again. I successfully filled in the 90 day reporting form using IE on Monday. Now, on Thursday, I can't access the kludgy extranet site https://extranet.immigration.go.th/fn90online Using IE, it tells me to change my TLS settings, though they worked before. Using Chrome just to check reachability, it says Can you imagine what a fuck up the "Single Gateway" is going to be when they can't even get a forms based system to work with all browsers and cannot keep it going regularly?
  3. I've upgraded you to MEMBERS group, so you should be able to do all that you need.
  4. Seems it's actually quite busy. Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk
  5. I'm glad he decided to not use Thai turkeys again.
  6. In the foreground you can see ashtrays on every table, and approaching from the beach is a very lithe Russian bartender/server. EDIT IN: After I took that photo, the "Russian" came by and asked me if I wanted another drink (cranberry juice was delicious on a hot day). I didn't detect any accent during the short interaction, so I am backing off from identifying her as a Russian and will simply say she is a Westerner of unknown national origin.

  7. Duh! I got mixed up between Hooters and Hard Rock. Have fun! Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk
  8. Is it a buffet? From the description I can't tell definitively, but I get the impression you're served each course. Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk

  10. Picked this up from a post on Facebook: Dear Santa, ? How are you? How is Mrs. Claus? I hope everyone, from the reindeer to the elves, is fine. I have been a very good boy this year. I would like an X-Box 360 with Call of Duty IV and an iPhone 7 for Christmas. I hope you remember that come Christmas Day. Merry Christmas, Timmy Jones * * Dear Timmy, Thank you for you letter. Mrs. Claus, the reindeer and the elves are all fine and thank you for asking about them. Santa is a little worried all the time you spend playing video games and texting. Santa wouldn't want you to get fat. Since you ha
  11. The whole 10 year extension thing seems to be poorly thought out, though that's not surprising coming from this government. Okay, it's for over 50 retirees. Given that insurance is prohibitively expensive and less and less likely to cover existing conditions by age 60, that's really a 10 year window where the applicants would have decent insurance. Beyond that, many have picked up various ailments that would be excluded by any insurance, making the coverage limits inapplicable. So, why would they require such meager insurance anyway? The yearly limits are quite low and would hardly mak
  12. Jazz and blues would be a very welcome change.
  13. Okay, I don't get it..and I did think about it for a bit It's apparently led you to say "drap" beer when the sign says "craft" beer. But I have to discount the idea that you are thinking they meant to say "draft" or "draught" beer, since "craft" beer is a common term now used in the USA (and UK, from an internet search). So, I know it's no fun if you have to explain a joke, but... Also, where is this place? It sounds like a good night out!
  14. A few weeks ago, the missus and I went to Monster Shrimp on that soi. I was surprised at how clean and eclectic (for Pattaya) the street was. Across from Monster Shrimp is that party store and the "Cat Cafe". The Cat Cafe actually has cats as furry hosts for the diners. People were in there eating with cats doing their leg rubbing thing and just wandering around. BTW, we really enjoyed Monster Shrimp. From what I have gleaned from speaking to others, it's very similar to some southern USA cooking style. You can order various combinations of shrimp, crab, squid, mussel, and clams that
  15. The Kerry Express tracking shows it was delivered successfully...are you still expecting a refund?

  18. Sadly, with the shortage of imported turkeys, Eddie made the decision to provide Thai turkeys for Thanksgiving. I have never eaten such a tough, stringy, flavorless turkey. I left half of it on the plate as I considered it inedible. On top of that, the turkey dinner was 900+ baht, and many other places were using Norbest turkeys and charging less.
  19. Good place to go for a deposit...can't guarantee it's safe though.
  20. Topics like this should not be in the member's bar section. Generally, I'd say either "Idle chit-chat" or "Off Topic", depending on whether it's PG or not. BTW, I just finished the season and am looking forward to season 2, though it's not going to be released until 2018. Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk
  21. Do you know any other BMs who live in or near Philly? If not, why are you posting this one city constantly? Are you trying to build up courage to book a flight?
  22. It's working great. I get an email when any mail arrives, I can view the envelope, and if I want to see the contents, I can get it scanned within a few hours. I had them forward some mail to me after viewing it, since I needed to fill out some forms, and that worked perfectly.
  23. I had a guy who wanted to get a box from Phil after he had moved to the UK. I contacted Phil and he told me his girlfriend was handling sales and delivery now. I contacted her on FB and she said she was out of stock, but would have some within the week. Never heard from her again.
