  1. Thanks for your replies, I have told him this before but he seems to have a romantic idea of sitting on the beach being fed food by young ladies in bikinis I shall give him the address for Bangkok Hospital 😉
  2. Thanks, but he is looking for one of those vendors that rent loungers and make food, 25 years ago there was one in front of Central that I used but I dont know of any that I would trust now
  3. A friend of mine will visit soon and wants to spend a few days on the beach in either Pattaya or Jomtien. He wants to hire a lounger and eat and drink there. I have bought drinks on the beach but generally avoid eating there, does anyone know a place where the food will not put him out of action for a few days. He loves Thai food chilli etc so no problem there Just dont want him spending half his holiday taking Immodium 🙂
  4. I understand what you are saying I guess they want everyone on the same type of visa as running 3 types, let alone the sub-types is not easy or fun, but screwing the customer over in the process is very typical of the non-rational thinking that I ave come to expect
  5. Many years ago the Elite visa was without an end date, when they brought out the previous visa they tried to get them to change to a 20 year limited visa, not popular now they are trying to get people to move to the new visa, shorter life, more costs I believe the Americans call this a "no brainer"
  6. Yes new series of the farm is due, plus maybe a reforming of the trio for a new Top Gear, although I doubt that will happen
  7. Wat Boonyakanchana Ram, Nongprue, Bang Lamung, Chonburi is a very long winded way to say Patttaya
  8. Surely if you are aware that you are or were on a blacklist, you would have been advised for how long you would remain barred unless you did something criminal normal overstay excetera has a finite timing
  9. i feel happy for you, today I found an idiot who doesn't understand sarcasm, perhaps you should find someone to pick on who is dumber than you, but that might be difficult
  10. Oh how I love sweeping generalisations, of course only idiots make them
  11. This December marks the 29th anniversary of the Budapest Memorandum, in which the United States, the United Kingdom, and Russia provided security commitments to Ukraine in exchange for the latter joining the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT) as a non-nuclear state. As part of the agreement, Ukraine relinquished the third largest nuclear arsenal in the world (which it inherited from the U.S.S.R.) and Russia agreed (among other things) “to respect the independence and sovereignty and the existing borders of Ukraine”. One could question why people sign treaties just to ignore them when it suits
  12. I would bet the house that 1000+ Russian oligarchs who bank in the Schweiz will not allow him to upset their bank accounts, many still have non-blocked bank accounts there amounting to billions in assets
  13. Based on history, no world war ever crossed the Swiss borders, you don't bomb your bank I guess Napoleon was the only one I recently recall, Caesar too, but that was before Switzerland got into banking
  14. I guess the biggest difference is that with restaurant food you have some chance of them washing the utensils and plates properly
  15. I am never too sure if things are getting smaller or my eyesight is getting worse as I age
