Koh Larn Sees Thousands of Visitors Over Past Weekend
NicoBKK replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
Also foreigners, many Asians. There are now many more bars and hotels/family hotels on the island compared to 10 years ago. I usually park at the Bali Hai pier automated parking, board the boat around 9AM, by 10 AM am on the beach then leave around 4PM to catch the 5PM boat. Parking is about 250 max 300 THB for the day, there are free parking spaces around but get filled up early and too many mobs. -

Never seen real Lego in Mega Plaza, only Chinese fake. But many. For a couple of months during Covid Lego had a temporary sales area at T21 - but not a shop and did not see recently. There used to be a Lego shop at the Siam Outlet near Suvarnabhumi, also closed now. I usually buy online (Lazada, again watch out for fakes) or in CW/Central Rama 9 or Siam Paragon.

American Man Found with Bullet Arrested at Phuket Airport
NicoBKK replied to webfact's topic in Phuket News
Yes, LagLag bala - I used to travel very often to Manila and was always worried about this scam. As they "found it" here the scam did not work? In Manila, after was found, the officers were asking money and after payment some of the victims revealed what happened or call their lawyers to expose it. Does not look the same case here, may be it was planted by other people to put the guy in troubles. -

They are listening too.. days ago I was discussing with a friend which is managing a surf's company in Bangkok. I did just enquire about his job, I do not surf and have no interest in such activity, never checked anything surf related - phone was in my hand. Following day, YouTube reels prompted me surf adv first time ever. Spooking.
