Re: Child Protection in Hua Hin
Sorry, I don't have the required information, but this off-topic burbling is annoying in a thread where someone is asking for important information. The only "burbling" is coming from you, and why you think it is off topic completely eludes me! 'Why does he need it?', 'Who is he?'. What's...

Re: Child Protection in Hua Hin
I don't see the reason for suspicion, what on earth are you suggesting he is trying to do? He is asking for information which should be in the public domain in Thailand but he cannot find from the UK. Does that look as though he's trying to perform some illegal activity? :/ Sorry, I don't have the r...

Re: 2018 Rolls-Royce
Ok, I give in. You are an individual who will NEVER change their view regardless of the evidence. You sure you're not Thai and worried about 'losing face'. No. He's a troll. Replying only encourages them. You and HHTel have not called Dannie Boy a troll or replied to his post, but he also quoted an...

Re: Cocktail bars
Putahracsa Hotel on Naebkehardt Road does 2 for 1 cocktails for happy hour(s) at the Oceanside Beach Bar (outdoor), quite upmarket with a live jazz duo (check for timings of both, it can get busy with BKK HiSos, so reserve a bed or lounger). Food is good. Very nice for sundowners. https://i.imgur.co...

Re: 2018 Rolls-Royce
My uncle had a Silver Cloud in the late 60s. He sometimes used to stop at the bus stop I was waiting for a bus at and I'd hop in (my side of the family were pretty poor). Made me feel top of the world for a few minutes. :D He and my dad drove it down through Europe and across North Africa on a month...

Re: Cocktail bars
I'll just say that people who feel that wanting to take one's other half to somewhere classy for cocktails once in a while is pretentious are themselves more pretentious than anyone. Inverted snobbery makes me cringe even more than snobbery, which I find I can just laugh at.
Go, sip, enjoy!

Re: Poor choice of dashcams on Lazada!
Yes, I've been PR in Thailand since 1988. I started using radar detectors back in 1993, they do have radar and laser traps around, and I used to drive extensively so found it was a necessity then. I don't drive as much now, so it's more a habit than anything. It's to save the hassle of being pulled...

Keep it in your pocket in a snuff tin, or similar? (I wish you could buy snuff in HH, I didn't have any for a loooong time).

In Market Village, Boots always has a pharmacist that seems know her stuff. But Fascino is currently the cheapest on most items in MV I think.

Re: Which Mobile Phone?
It depends what you want the phone to do, other than send and receive calls. Are photos important to you, endless apps, speed, etc. Pick a price range and read reviews by pros and users. par ex: Google, Best smart phones under $. That's obvious, I was just responding to the unusual nature of the ph...

Re: Thai women second fattest in Asia
I think there are a couple of factors that haven't been taken into account, one is that before about 1990, poverty rates in rural areas of Thailand were very high and the other is that people living in poor rural communities in SE Asia have a very high rate of intestinal parasites. Both of these fa...

Re: Thai women second fattest in Asia
It would be interesting to compare a standard meal now to the past. The bulk of the meals I see that are priced low is generally rice. Look at people (women especially) in Mexico and central America, many are heavy set. Standard meals, especially for the lower classes, have lots of beans, rice, pla...

Re: Poor choice of dashcams on Lazada!
Thanks, this morning I got off the pot and ordered the DDPai M6 Plus from Amazon... Amazing how some actions tend to clear your mind and goad you into action.. :lach: Good buy, good price. Enjoy when it comes. Don't forget a separate battery pack so you will be able to use the time-lapse recording....
