IIRC, There was a news item about the farm. The farm was started by a taxi driver to earn money during the pandemic. From the continued expansion of the farm I'd say he's done quite well. Good on him. Pictures from July 2020 when he first opened. If I'm not too hungover tomorrow I'll take a few pics of what the farm looks like now. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was off home for a bit and not been walking much since I got back so that's my excuse for not noticing. The fact I can see it from my balcony is irrelevant. 😉 Anyway here's some pics from when I got caught out in the rain this morning. First from across the road from M Club entrance. Second from the same place but looking over towards the entrance from Third Road by the changing rooms. Third from the Third Road side. It's not earth they're dumping as I'd thought but something more substantial, whatever that indicates. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KWA Posted June 19, 2022 Share Posted June 19, 2022 The football pitch site ongoing: Both pics from the opening off Third Road. Fencing completed round the rest of the site and the inside of the fence painted. The piles of smallish stones have been spread out and a roller has been crunching over them, so whatever is going in here can't be too substantial if that's the base. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek Dangleberries Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 On this morning's walk I noticed that the demolition/building site at the junction of Pattaya Tai and Sukhumvit road has now broken through to the slip road, knocking down everything that gets in its way! Is it gonna be a condo, shopping centre, hotel, a replacement Batman nightclub, Monorail terminus or Casino...???? I can see this as a perfect start to finish project for @forcebwithu to do a pictorial report on ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forcebwithu Posted July 6, 2022 Author Share Posted July 6, 2022 Noticed this hole the other night while riding by. No streetlights in the area, and no barriers to keep the unwary from falling in. An accident waiting to happen. The area is just past the Full Love Inn strip of GC's and across from Nirun. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That area has received quite a lot of investment over the last 5 years or so.. .Hopefully Arunothai will start to recover and improve but still keep the school. It did really well with my daughter. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

john luke Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 The new hotel on Naklua Road, part of the Grande Centre Point Group. Whilst I am sure the convenience store on the complex will be welcome, it does seem a little ostentatious. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supposed to be a restaurant surrounded by lots of other smaller stuff. There was a site map going about and it showed over 100 other plots IIRC, but I don't recall the structure pictured being on the map so something may have changed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fforest Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 (edited) I dread long flights in planes just like this one.....Pay to eat a meal in a plane? You must be joking....Would any international tourist be interested in this? Either finish building the stupid restaurant or get rid of the plane...
