  1. This works well for Football you need a bit of patience to find your teams game then try the different links. Sometimes English commentary but more often Thai. Keep in mind it’s free but works 9 times out of 10. Once you get used to it it’s easy. No log in or vpn needed anywhere in the world including China. https://www.warpfootball.com
  2. Just a note of caution with Travel Trolley read their small print in case of airline cancellation basically they have no liability. Voice of experience.
  3. Tried once very nice change have they finished the road construction nearby to it now ?
  4. I have always insisted on a Washing machine as priority but recently for the big stuff like sheets we’ve started using these laundries much more convenient and easy to use.
  5. Not quite so sure the group these days is so big let’s say from a westerner point of view. More these days or at least pre-Covid it was more and more Chinese and Japanese. I think specifically if you want to do something it would be sell and target the Chinese market with a good price. There are still a few around buying places not as many as was but I’d say that’s your best bet the problem with them is they are happy to pay big money for these shoebox condos in the high rise places as long as they are new. The other thing with selling the agents are obviously in it for a cut and tha
  6. Location Location the condos there are really nice but 5 years ago they was asking the kind of rent you are thinking about now. For me money wasn’t a factor it was just that the location is too far away from Pattaya even I would say things have developed down there over the last years but it’s more for the vacationers. Good luck in these times.
  7. Over enthusiastic is a very nice description. For money in the bank TMB have savings account which is about 1.5% I think without any restrictions for taking money out.
  8. Funnily enough I once bought a bed from there and he was still there up until last week and when I drove past on Sunday the place was raised to the ground and gone. Buying a bed depends on you I bought my decent one from Index and I know not cheap but do you skimp on bed you’re spending half your life in... Didn’t see SB mentioned Sealy that’s what I bought very good.
  9. Would you mind to share what was covered to that looks very reasonable. I never got as far as getting a quote. Be interesting to hear if anybody else has any experience with this company ?
  10. I’m no expert on this but obviously it’s a topic we all will consider at some point in time. I somehow come across this video on YouTube no doubt somebody on here will have view on it one way or another but on the face of it it doesn’t seem too bad on the other hand it could be a complete rip off.
  11. Absolutely living here they did a good job of deterring me from using them pre-covid. I just either went up the hill or out the back way to another Soi to pick a bike up. Obviously now I will just order a Bolt car for 50 baht. Incidentally you could order a bike on Bolt for 40 baht for same journey. Basically they had the luxury before of not bothering because there was enough tourists around to keep em going. Near me some of them more or less live on the job the ones that don’t look to be the ones who’ve disappeared. One actual sleeps in his old banger he uses as a taxi sometimes,
  12. For sure normally it would have to be a committee decision if they dropped the price to 80 baht but now times are different and surely they can see that. Everyone is cutting their cloth to suit so why aren’t they. Just bloody stupid.
  13. I live in Pratumnak and there is Moto taxi stand nearby. Before all this shit I stopped using them because they are just ripping people off I’d rather walk up the hill and get one of the guys up there. This lot I say lot because at any time there was easily 7 or 8 at a time working, Anyway now their numbers have dwindled and obviously the customers are few and far between. I just saw 3 potential customers walk by and ask how much for down town 100 baht each madam. The people just walked off. I just don’t get it they would rather sit and do nothing than earn something for li
