RIP LVP

If the fog at Heathrow holds off and nothing else happens on Saturday then i am on my way (God willing) and hopefully nothing happens over there before i get to Pattaya

Thanks for the pics, enjoyed them but i don't want to go back either

Good post and thanks for that Gabor

February is good for me , i have been in Pattaya during voting and didn't like it. Now, as long as they don't do anything stupid at Suvarnabhumi this weekend then i am good to go

I use Lloyds Bank, to get Sterling (pound) T/c's without commission you have to order them online or by phone and either way they say that you cannot specify the denomination of the cheques.. If you order in branch then you get hit with a 1 1/2% charge. Last Xmas i ordered £2500 of cheques and i got 8 x 200 pound cheques, 4 x 100 and all the rest was crap 50's and 10 pounds which i brought back and handed them back to Lloyds to credit back to my account.

Hi Evil, I arrive on the 15th December and hopefully i will be able to get some baht to you but i will not visit walking street / Flb until the 19th as she works in that area and i don't want her to know i have arrived earlier than she knows

Hi Teelack, Assuming you have gone to countdown clocks http://www.countdownclockcodes.com/christmas-countdown-clocks/ and set up the required details and then copied the html code (by hitting the "get html code" at the bottom, this will then copy the code like this Then go to the top of this board page to the right and hit your name next to the sign out link and click the drop down box then hit the "My settings" link and this will bring up a new page, look to the left of page and hit the third one down which is settings (after the email and password button) Then paste the html code in the edit signature bit and that will put the signature at the bottom of your posts and click "save" and it should be as mine shows (hopefully)

sounds good, just under 4 weeks till i arrive, will try to pop along for a meal

I am booked in there next month, from the 19th December i have a confirmation at 1450 baht per night but i notice the price increase to 1500 baht per night and from the 21st ( i think ) it goes up by 350 baht per night as a christmas surcharge, so we will see what they charge. This will be my 3rd xmas/new year in a row at the Residence garden and i enjoy the place. I arrive Pattaya on the 15th and have 4 days in the Centara Pattaya hotel just for a change.

Nice pics, cheers for posting Firth

The watch shown is a good watch, i have had one of those for more than 4 years and it runs perfectly.

I flew Emirates 1st class in 2009 for my Xmas trip, 2 legs in the A380 and 1 leg on the 777-300ER all with suites and very comfortable. Cost me £2580 which was not much more than i normally paid for business class in the peak Xmas period.

That looks great and thanks for that Evil, Breakfast would be fine but no way on the black pudding. Cheers
