Snookered in Hua Him...

Do straights pay more than us?

Usually, yes.

Think of it as God's way of punishment for being straight.

colmx, I have to disagree with you. Most early houses are located around the markets area (fruit and veg). I've been in most of the ones on your map

Most of the remaining ones in dublin are around the markets. But that's because the traditional docklands have been eroded and gentrified and the docklands early houses closed down due to lack of trade

But in other port cities (e.g. Waterford & Cork) the early houses are all based along the quays

Oh and to keep this on topic... Most of the early houses that I have visited back in my youth have had pool tables... But at 7.30 in the morning after leaving a club and a house party.... The pool playing is pretty abysmal!

Smiles, that's a great story. I don't play pool myself, but if my opponent was in his underpants, I might just reconsider my position.

Why? To get a better view? :-)

colmx I take your point (but never your pint)

An Early house is a pub that opens earlier than a normal pub (7.30 in the morning versus 10.30)

They are usually found in the vicinity of docks and traditionally had extended opening hours so dock workers can get a few rounds of drinks in before starting work:]

.

Are you sure that is right?
Early pubs in London open at similar hours to provide drinks for market workers AFTER they have finished a night shift.

Do they have early houses in Hua-Hin?
