  1. I registered on that site when it was first opened, what, some 3 months ago. No response, so it doesn't seem to work.
  2. You got a message on LINE and sent a payment? Bit risky dont you think? Not some thing that I would do.
  3. Why as an airline would you purchase a four engine aircraft , when you can provide the same or better service, more profitably, using aircraft with 2. It never made any real sense once the NEOs came onto the scene and ETOPS became a common reality. Of course hindsight is a wonderful thing, but that's why you pay the big bucks to the manufacturing executives. They got a bit carried away with their own propaganda, having done the same with the A340. The A350 redresses the failures by Airbus and should be ( is already?) a big success.
  4. I hesitated to post here, as its not really a matter for disclosure on a forum, but here goes. I have over 8,000 hours on the B777- 200 and 300 ER. Boeings are very nice aircraft to fly, understandable ( as opposed to Airbus) and relatively easy to fly. I used to say to my colleagues that I could teach my Grandmother to fly a B777 in no time at all. I am retired now of course, but it is apparent to me, and to the airline pilot community as a whole, that Boeing have lost the plot and lost their soul, aided in great part by the incompetence of the FAA, something that is not only saddening,
  5. I'm sorry, but I don't agree with that view. To me, the Jury is very much out on the Chinese and Russian vaccines. One cannot trust the statements of totalitarian regimes and their largely untested 'products'. I will wait until,a western vaccine is available to me in Thailand . I am far from stressed about waiting.
  6. quote: 'we have come aware that some have not been vaccinated yet' ; what planet do these people live on? Talk about stating the blindingly obvious. Most older expats have not been vaccinated yet, even I know that. In our group of over 40, only one has been vaccinated here and that was with the Chinese version ( good luck with that) . Two others have returned from the US having been vaccinated there, one is away in UK getting his. All are registered here, including me and all we get back is a deafening silence. I do not expect to get anywhere near a vaccine until Spring next year. In th
  7. I nearly added, 'and the ladies had shapely butts too', but I left it for you to get the laugh. ?
  8. I tired it once but I went to sleep and was thrown out of the class. I think it was more for admiring the nice shapely butts than the sleep, but it would have never have worked for me, you can't make the lotus position with an erection. ?
  9. They are absolutely hopeless. Until they have a total clear out and employ a management team with intentional aviation experience (I am available by the way ?) they are doomed to repeat their obvious mistakes. Thai is a basket case and always will be.
  10. I don't normally stand on such principles, but I will not fly with an airline owned by a terrorist supporting State. I will fly with the more liberal Middle Eastern airlines, but not Saudi or this one.
  11. I registered last week, I even got an appointment date, 1st January 1970. Just have to find where I parked that damn time machine and I will be fine. I know that that date is the default date stamp for all computer programmes, which I suppose means they didn't programme the thing correctly, what a surprise.
  12. Ah well, it was a nice idea while it lasted. I'm not expecting to get vaccinated anytime this year, maybe January 2022.
  13. Has anyone any information on this report, that the various western Ambassadors are seeking vaccines for their own citizens based in LOS. If true, its about time. better late than never I guess.
  14. Knew a man who was nicknamed 'Sirus' ( after the dog star) because he was white, small and dense
  15. I heard that you need an IQ of 120 minimum, big balls, a 9 inch dick and you get 100,000 Baht a month, but I could be wrong, on the dick bit.
  16. I use Express VPN. very good, can stream several movies at once, Quite stable , but it can have its off days, as they all can.
  17. I only went to Sabai once, I was not at all impressed. Not too clean, girls average at best and the service very 'mechanical.' I left very dissatisfied. I am not sure about the 'aimed at Koreans'. I just think that they aim at a higher end clientele, that values service quality over price, It's not for the cheap charlies that is for sure. I was treated like a valued client, which of course, I paid for at 4K.
  18. None of that inflatable mattress nonsense in Rasputin. I hate those damn things.
  19. It was odd really, there was quite a crowd of Indian guys milling around on the outside parking area, maybe upwards of 10 or 12. I surmised that they had been told that no way would they get any service that day. They did look pissed off. They were just run of the mill guys, nothing indicating money. In the waiting area there were probably around 4 or 5 waiting, but the lady who escorted me past them said that they would not get serviced, but had decided to wait. The staff were serving them drinks so I guess that they were making some money off them. She was quite open about it and tha
  20. Perhaps a little more detail then , on my last visit, albeit, pre Covid and pre last Christmas. Decided that I needed a bit of pandering , so went along to Rasputin. Lots of Indian guys in the waiting area, as only a very few of the girls will entertain them. I was ushered straight past the waiting area, to the goldfish bowl area and offered a drink. I had already seen the girl I wanted, she was in the area dedicated to the top, 3,000 Baht range. Her name was Jane, small, as I like them, slim and very pretty. She was around late twenties I would guess, I never asked, never married (sh
  21. Pre Covid, it was the place I would prefer to go very occasionally, to give myself a treat. It's a bit pricey, but the facilities are very clean and very comfortable. If you paid the 2,000/2,500 for the top girls, (90 minutes) they were certainly above the average. By the time you ordered drinks and tipped the girl, you could be down 3,500, but worth it for an occasional treat. https://www.google.co.th/maps/uv?hl=en&pb=!1s0x31029601bb1f9877%3A0xf43a5b7cf013d9b9!3m1!7e115!4shttps%3A%2F%2Flh5.googleusercontent.com%2Fp%2FAF1QipOzm6b15M_OrwMGX6GI0fmU_me2VvYY024iE28%3Dw240-h160-k-no!5
  22. Anyone know if Rasputin's is open and offering the full range of services? I love that place but haven't been since last year. I dont know if some of the girls stayed in Pattaya for it to open.
  23. I have been in my house for 3 years now., bought it new 5 years ago. I like the large rooms and big ish garden and of course the pool. I feel its my space, with nobody intruding into it, but that's me, anti social to the end.
