    Drink less alcohol. Save money. Hire a motorbike. Spend more on boys. Have more fun. Done.

    I only drink ONE beer when out..so no matter to me...and a price increase is not going to BREAK anyone nor make them cut back the amount the want to drink,,I think,,

    Yeah, wouldn't surprise me. They seem to increase the price every 18 months or so, so it's about that time now.

    Don't worry, it only ever goes up by a little. Few baht for a can of beer, maybe 10 baht for a bottle of whisky, etc.

    Worrying about a small increase in the price of goods in Thailand is like worrying about a change in the exchange rate.

    Unless you are talking big bucks, I'd imagine it wouldn't adversely affect anyone.

    Apart from Christian, perhaps.

    I used to get over 30 baht to the dollar. Now,it's around 25. I'm not happy, but it doesn't change anything.

    Besides, Thailand is cheap to start with.

    Exactly. Take away the cost of boys and drinks in go go bars and Thailand remains one of the least expensive holiday destinations.

    arsetroll.....stop being so cheeep.....cost of MB in gogo bars and drinks is still dirt cheap compared to most other countries...and once u take into consoderation how cheap decent hotels and meals are then its a real bargain.
    Back to the cost of drinks in a gogo bar...its not the ACTUAL drink u r paying for....

    Rabbi Poxxy. That's what I said. Are you posting from your sheltered accommodation again? Matron has told you about that.

    I thought there was a restraining order on his use of a computer.

    If there isn't, there ought to be - a green crayon would be more suitable
