Re: Emirates flight charges to BKK
yeh we're all singing from the same hymn sheet there.I used the VIP bus last year for the first time and was impressed with the VFM........ beats a 2500kb taxi any day of the week so I will use that as another moneysaver.

Re: Emirates flight charges to BKK
Thanks for all the insight into other peoples travel methods and useful links.At the end of the day(we go to bed) it's all about the money and I still might go but will research what I've learned so far.All further advice heeded too. Ta.

Emirates flight charges to BKK
I've been coming to HH for a few years now and was planning another month-long holiday here from july to august.But when I went online to check flights on Emirates website I was well-shocked.Seeing as I always take the same flights back and forth I wasn't expecting much change,how wrong was I.My usu...

Re: Bars on Soi 80
Oh I wouldn't cast any aspersions on the beauty of ANY thai ladies on soi 80 ? I mean why would I try to barfine 2 if I did ? besides beauty is in the eye of the beholder, even IF you are looking at a fat minger,which of course I wasn't.Went there tonight again with just a view to food and had a fir...

Re: Good deeds sometimes get rewarded
I caught this on tv several times over the past days as I recover from my late-night holiday attributes and I gotta admit, as a soon to be alcoholic Glaswegian I was deeply touched by it's inner message,but don't actually know what it has been developed to encourage people to do ? Didn't Charles Dic...

Re: Music Room ?
Thanks for all the advice.Rode down there this afternoon to locate it and its exactly where it should be,hahaha.Now all I have to do is locate a decent bar girl unlike the one last night that gave me the runaround and I still ended up outta pocket.Maybe I should take the expat route and avoid the bi...

Re: Driving license
Well tues night I downloaded the AA application form for an international driving permit based on the 1949 agreement,there is another based on an earlier 1926 agreement I believe.But their website claims the 1949 agreement applies to LOS. On wed I sourced a photobooth at a SAINSBURYS branch and got ...

Re: International Driving License - Hua Hin

Re: Early closing for bars in Hua Hin
Well when I'm on my british summer holiday (in Greece before I discovered LOS) I still headed out late and got home even later,I guess that's the difference between being a holidaymaker or an expat ! besides I couldn't possibly live on a different timescale from the rest of the population.But when I...

Re: Early closing for bars in Hua Hin
Well being a tourist myself going out late is all part of the fun,I get enough early rises and early nights in blighty to last a lifetime,so my month in the LOS is spent doing the contrary to the daily grind and I imagine a lot of guys like me feel that's the way to go if you're on your holidays.......

Re: Airport VIP Bus to and from Hua Hin
Yes, when I arrived at the bus station in April I managed to get a motorbike taxi from there to the centre of town for 50 bt. There was a couple of taxis there but I asked for a bike as there was a lot of traffic about and they found me one from outside in the street. So does that include a suitcas...

Re: Hua Hin accommodation reviews sub-forum
I think it's a good idea as I personally have booked my accommodation twice through recommendations online here.Other than that I have no other way of knowing how good it's going to be.Mind you since it's all pretty subjective it could turn out to be a bit of a minefield.For anybody who's interested...
