If you can tolerate being just on the other side of 2nd road, I like The Whitehouse Condotel over near Soi 13 next to the Dynasty. You can book it routinely through Agoda for around 1100 Baht/night with breakfast included. Rooms have stand alone showers, i.e., no tubs to stumble in as in the Areca. On Agoda the Whitehouse 1100 Baht/night rate comes in with Agoda's fees included at roughly 1300 Baht.

An airplane was about to crash, there were 4 famous passengers on board but only 3 parachutes left. The first passenger said, "I'm LeBron James, the best NBA basketball player there is. My fans need me. I can't afford to die." So he took the first pack and left the plane. The second passenger, Donald Trump said "Out of my way. I'm President of the USA and I'm going to be the greatest and cleverest President in American history." So he quickly grabbed the pack next to him and jumped out of the plane. The third passenger was the Pope and he turned to the fourth passenger, a Rabbi and said, "I am old, frail and don't have many years left. As a good Catholic, I will sacrifice my life and let you have the last parachute." The Rabbi turned to him and said: "Thank you but it's really OK.... there are enough parachutes for both of us. America's greatest and cleverest President has just taken my Tallit bag.

I'VE BEEN BANNED FROM TESCO'S Yesterday I was at my local Tesco's store buying a large bag of My Dog dog food for my loyal pet and was in the checkout queue when a woman behind me asked if I had a dog. What did she think I had an elephant? So, since I'm retired and have little to do, on impulse I told her that no, I didn't have a dog, I was starting the Dog Diet again. I added that I probably shouldn’t, because I ended up in hospital last time, but I'd lost 10 kilograms before I woke up in intensive care with tubes coming out of most of my orifices and IVs in both arms. I told her that it was essentially a perfect diet and that the way that it works is to load your pockets with My Dog nuggets and simply eat one or two every time you feel hungry. The food is nutritionally complete so it works well and I was going to try it again. (I have to mention here that practically everyone in queue was now enthralled with my story.) Horrified, she asked me if I ended up in intensive care because the dog food poisoned me. I told her no, I stepped off the kerb to sniff an Irish Setter's arse and a car hit me. I thought the guy behind her was going to have a heart attack he was laughing so hard. I'm now banned from Tesco's Better watch what you ask retired people. They have all the time in the world to think of daft things to say.
