I was able to get a certificate from my UK insurers, stipulating that it must be brief enough to download.
But it was a damn nuisance, requiring a number of phone calls.
I do urge you to keep...
I recall Tango from those days, where the Mamasan ruled with a rod of iron.......though it was alleged on the message boards that the rod was actually a cane! le vice anglais?
There was also...
I appreciate the feelings many tourists have about buying the Thai Covid-specific insurance....something I chose to do even though I have a first class policy in the UK from Allianz.
However, I...

I applied on Saturday. Certificate due soon. No age limit...I'm seventy-five. About 5000bht.
I shall also have my UK...
On the other hand, the entertainment offered- namely the dancing elderly falang and the humping of the khatoey- is worth anyone's 250 baht.....isn't it?
I recall, across the soi at Throb, paying...
Yes....a Youtube vlogger also claims that Covid Pass applications will receive immediate responses as from 1 June....no more waiting. I hope he's right.
Nor was there a contest on my first visit in 1997. I'd just started visiting Pattaya (some would say obsessively....I even took early retirement to further my "interests") and thought that Patong...
Many falang visitors , perhaps most, don't have pools at their hotels and so Sansuk's was always a draw. Add to that a decent and well-priced restaurant. It meant that even without large numbers of...
If it has closed for good, I shall be sad. I recall Punya's story as an entrepreneur well; he was always a charming host and would go out of his way to talk to P and me. He must be heart -broken...
I had two flights cancelled. The refund was in my bank account within a week. Unlike Thai Air who emailed me to say that there was no immediate prospect of one due to the company's on-going problems....
Babylon was the first Thai sauna I visited and, having being "out" for only about three years, the availability of young Thais- and their surprising interest in me- was a revelation. I'd been happy...
Not one instance of dishonesty experienced in Thailand over twenty-five years.
Fortunate? no. The guys on the scene whom I used to invite to my room were invariably decent people trying to make an...
That reminds me....are the street dancing guys (B-Boys?) back? I always thought they contributed a lot to Boyztown and the Jomtien complex. And Xboys too, if I remember correctly.
Accommodation is so cheap in Thailand, and particularly in Pattaya, that spending few extra baht a night can make a huge difference. This is true whether choosing a higher grade in a hotel or a...
Yes, the old Babylon was the best, even if its maze of staircases was an intellectual challenge. The Obelisk was a pleasant environment- perhaps even luxurious- but didn't seem much of a...
Please clafrify....no go go in Jomtien? that was already the case- there never has been.
But no go go anywhere, ever? Pattaya and Bangkok? that's news to me. And if so, does that mean the end of...
