  1. sinbinjack Maybe this will help http://www.r-conhotel.com/ I think the hotel you are asking about is 10 K per month low season, 12 K per month high season, plus bills. Yes, on the bend/corner. Unsure about pool. Friend stayed there and seemed content with it.
  2. I prefer Brooklyn Diner to Pizza Big, eaten from/at both. Very good staff at Brooklyn Diner also.
  3. Meeting Point still have live music, for some strange reason they stopped playing on Saturday nights for a while but have it back again as of a couple of weeks ago. I go in sometimes. The bar opposite Bodega has live music also, didn`t rate it, maybe just me although as it was devoid of customers maybe not.
  4. Just in case you are unaware, the normal turnaround time for a Thai Tourist visa in PP is 4 working days, as opposed to next day turnaround in most other neighbouring countries. Whether there is a way of speeding it up, don`t know, not so according to the agent I used in PP.
  5. Patna Thanks for mentioning that, looks OK to me, will try it sometime, had never heard of it. + Thks to bratpack for the comment and directions.
  6. Yes, that`s right but they have a new band there, Cross Colours, As to suggestions, you could try Purple Space Monkey on soi Chaiyapruek Jomtien, it`s not been mentioned on this thread yet Pop/rock, air con bar, does food but I have not eaten there. It`s been a while since I went there but enjoyed the visit, no website that I am aware of but they have a facebook page Yuth Bar as previously mentioned very good for Rock, Leos in naklua can also be good, 3 other music bars on the same soi. A Filipino band ( or at least part Fillipino ) play in Funny Girl bar, which is in a
  7. Hi Spud I`ve flown Cathay a fair few times and been happy with them but have never flown with Etihad so can`t compare the two. I know what you mean about the extra flight time, when stopped in Hong Kong I`ve generally just gone to grab something to eat quickly, maybe catch up on emails etc and the time actually at the airport went by pretty quick and at least when you touch down at HK, you know you are " nearly there".
  8. Hello I have some doubt as to whether it would be suitable but Leos Blues Bar on soi 18 ( Wong Amat) naklua have jam nights Fridays and Saturdays. They state everyone welcome. Customers there appreciate good music. of varying types. I`d at least make a point of going there if you happen to play.
  9. Hi A couple of places to consider,I`ve not used either though : http://www.safe-storebox.com/index.html http://www.u-store-it-pattaya.com/index.html
  10. Good places for pizza include La Grotta, an Italian restaurant on soi 33 naklua( about a 5 minute walk from the Dolphin roundabout, soi 33 will be on your right.) Air-con inside or open air outside. I thought it beat Pizza Big which is slightly further up the main naklua road. Casa Nostra, just off soi 7 pattaya, in the cut throught that leads to pattaya klang. Valentinos soi 4 pattaya klang, very near FoodLand supermarket. All the pizzas were thin crust and thought Valentinos was the best of those I`ve mentioned.
  11. Hi If you`ve not already sourced the furniture, might be worth taking a look at the warehouse type shops at the back of Big C( north/2nd Road) Some items seem reasonably priced, others not.
  12. Hello Unless there has been any change very recently it will cost you 1900 baht to extend at Jomtien. No.2 option seems OK to me, as does No. 3 each involving 1 border run and 1 extension.
  13. Accomodation, Transport Doctors Dentists Cigarettes Soft drinks in shops. Some medicines. Probably loads more.
  14. Hi Yes, watched all but a couple of stages, the team TT one not of real interest. been enjoying it, yesterday was good, Contador on the attack. Looking forward to Thursday and Friday stages.
  15. Hi You can pay to extend your validity period, costs 30 baht per month extension.
