Chappo

love driving in Thailand (once out of pattaya :)) - before covid shit we were doing pattaya -> uttaradit every 2-3 months. doing around 15000 kms each year. Have only done 6000 over the past year - i still like to head out each week for a little jaunt around chonburi / tak area.

i too am off to Bangkok tomorrow for a vaccine jab - the hospital gave me a letter - so printing a few of these off together with my passport (maybe my lease - but as i am registered with immigration at pattaya then may not need) - my wife is coming with me in case of any adverse reaction to the jab, so she will bring her vaccine certificate also..

probably 90% off the made-up-on-the-spot RRP or MRSP 🙂 - TIT

may not be beef steak for 59baht - probably the chicken thats underneath the piccie or could be pork

whats the website?

being vaccinated doesnt stop you from getting it or transmitting it - it has been shown to stop you needing hospitalization / ICU

all in close proximity - crammed into buses at the start and end of the day, all living and eating on top of each other ...

agreed - not one shop is being maintained - they are all starting to look extremely drab- this seems to be the Thai way to not do any remedial work to keep a place looking at least respectable - but just let fall into disrepair..

many things here in Thailand / Pattaya are copies or ripoffs of western businesses or western styles 🙂

maybe collecting cigarette butts ...

agreed! - same like many non-bar based business trying to stay afloat in Pattaya

welcome to the noobies

rain coming in last night

is it the same (original) owners who moved to soi boomerang?

My preferred walking shoes are northface Hedgehogs - extremely comfortable and durable light weight walking / hiking shoe.
