Eagles Nest

Anybody know anything about the new tree house near Beverly Hills?

I can still remember Brian Chesky announcing that tree houses were the runaway best performers on Airbnb.

Re: The Coffee Thread

"The general sarcasm plus the rolling eyes at the end of your first reply wasn't too nice."

My apologies. I was trying to use the emoji to convey an extra bit of informality to the message, but I am not very adept at these new fangled communications methods.

Re: The Coffee Thread

Why do you insist on telling me that it is available online, when I have always very specifically asked for an physical retail location? Do you think I am deaf?

Re: Shocking attack on elderly Brits in Hua Hin

My guess would be those horrible modernist cubes that are stuck on the wrong side of beach road. Any other suggestions?

Re: Shocking attack on elderly Brits in Hua Hin

The article mentioned Sam Roi Yot police. How far south of HH was their development? All the way down as far as Pranburi and Dolphin Bay?

Re: The Coffee Thread

Thanks Steve, but I am looking specifically for Ipoh instant. It is frustrating when it is so widely available in all the other neighbouring countries. Honestly, BKK is a bit of a disappointment compared to Kim Yong!

Re: Thai household debt deeper than ever

What Bamboo says is true. I was amazed at how many department stores are still open, but at the same time, upmarket shopping centres also have racks of second hand clothes at the same time. This all seems to be especially true in HH. Lots of generational wealth, currently funded by a dwindling line ...

This is an interesting subject, but I am not a fan of CNA. Therefore, any alternate perspectives would be most welcome.

This one is more of the European style, with a V shaped head badge.
It is kept in the back with the Lexus PPC.

Re: Electric Vehicles (EV) Thread

Midgets were fun but few youngsters have the means to upkeep a vintage auto. My midget was for weekends. I used the Micra for commuting, especially in the cold. Do you happen to know what brand of supercar the owners of the Big C food court recently bought. All these hypercars look the same to me! ;-)
