  1. It was blocked at the back of the avenue 5pm yesterday , looked like they had just laid cement...................i was on the bike , came off second road to avoid the traffic intending to cut through to Central road via the back of the Avenue/Buakhao route had to u-turn and head back to second road.
  2. Is this a guessing game?............????
  3. Chips look a little overdone in first pic................second lot look a lot better
  4. Did mine last week online............reported 6am.............approved 1pm......................if you have the pending showing when you check its progress i would give it until tomorrow
  5. Edit...................was going to offer you one for 1000 baht but looking at Lazada they are so cheap now better to buy new
  6. We are meeting at 5pm..................enjoy Vickins bar , watch the world go by. Reason it was 4.30pm was i have to meet someone else in Pattaya at 4pm..............so with a bit of travel time 4.30 would of been good I guess by normal place you think the same as me, that service is allowed elsewhere
  7. Can someone put me right............... I don't drink in the afternoon but have just arranged to meet a mate at 4.30pm Vickin's bar Jomtien and he informs me we will not get served before 5pm.....................in line with the 2pm-5pm supermarket/7-11 restrictions.................he says the manager has had the police in warning him not to serve before 5pm I always thought bars/restaurants were ok to serve between 2-5pm as long as alcohol was consumed on the premises?
  8. Nicky's looks the best ...................
  9. Agreed...........i got fined 2 weeks ago, tried to argue the one years grace period, cop wasnt interested..................500 fine
  10. Was a lot easier this time, instead of pointing to the chart they had something akin to a traffic light with red yellow green lights................each light approx 6 inchs across so relatively easy.........guy pressed a button and a colour would be illuminated
  11. Renewed mine last week, ran out in December 21............got stopped by police 10 days ago in Pattaya 500 baht fine so made the effort..................interesting thing is paid the fine at the cop shop , went back to bike, cop gave me the keys and off i went even though he knew my license had expired..............just goes to show its nothing to do with road safety Anyway trip to immigration and a local clinic , next day out to the licensing center to book an appt for 9am the next day............colour test and brake reaction.................was out by 12pm Longest wait was a good hour waiting for license to be printed.
  12. Update............. sorted it myself....................i ordered a new ignition barrel from Lazada it was only 240 baht so probably not a genuine part but just wanted to give it a go........and voila started straight up. Which the beggars the question why didnt shorting the ignition before work?.............photo below of the piece of wire in stuck in the connector block which is supposed to bypass the ignition barrel but obviously not......or i did something wrong Anyway all's well
  13. Thanks for the reply...................ruled out the kick stand sensor as i have an aerox and click and both the lights and horn work with the stand down....................Mio nothing works Think i/ll just load it onto the pickup...................too hot to work on it cheers.
  14. Yamaha Mio...................no electrics whatsoever I know the battery is ok.................checked fuse thats ok, replaced it just incase...............bought new starter relay.............took out the ignition barrel and shorted the "plug" to make sure the barrel contacts were not faulty I could load it onto the pickup and take it in to get sorted but just wondering if anyone had any ideas? Also will not kickstart.....................could it be the killswitch at the kickstand?..............i.e switch is faulty so bike assumes stand is down and wont start..............and if the switch is at fault would the horn still not work? Thought i would ask here before taking it in.
  15. Facebook has them closed from 12th April............... https://www.facebook.com/Honest-Indian-cuisine-Pattaya-108276631064718/
  16. That's where i normally go.................be good to compare with elsewhere though.
  17. Seems a tad expensive? Will have to try the Hang Lay from Lung Chef restaurant..................Hang Lay is hard to find in Pattaya
  18. Think you/ll find the old passport was sat in the agents office for the month.............i renewed mine in November after waiting a few days for them to take it to Bangkok i called into the agents office and picked the old passport up.........the new landed 8 weeks later.
  19. Anyone flying back to the UK all restrictions have been scrapped starting 18th March............vaxed and unvaxed Checked on KLM websites and that confirms you can just board the plane Only need Thailand to follow suit now https://www.gov.uk/government/news/all-covid-19-travel-restrictions-removed-in-the-uk From 4am Friday 18 March, all COVID-19 travel restrictions will be lifted, including the passenger locator form (PLF) for arrivals into UK, as well as all tests for passengers who do not qualify as vaccinated. This change, therefore, removes the need for unvaccinated passengers to take a pre-departure test and a day 2 post arrival test.
  20. Was held opposite the Sunshine Cafe (Soi 7 ?) all i could see were surfboards being raced back into shore by guys stood on them with paddles As usual any chance of having a quiet beer went out the window thanks to a shrill womans voice coming over the speakers commenting on the races...........akin to the long boat race commentators.................
