A rather belated response to Bill's post, but hopefully of some use. Having just returned from Hua Hin, I must say that in Asia - outside of Singapore - it would be hard to find a place that felt safer. I was with my wife and we never even spotted any trouble - of course we could be wrong. With rega...

Flamingo Bar and Richard

Well - we are back in UK. Thanks to the guys on the board for your help in finding Richard - we had one or two drinks, as you can imagine. Alan in the Flamingo made us at home. The girls in the bar were great (have to be careful of how I say this!) and made us both welcome as a friend of Richard's. ...

Hospitals

Hi prcscct,

Perhaps one of the board moderators could elaborate.

Richard

Thanks Buksida, Bamboo Grove & Lev for all your efforts here.

Please note that some stuff, from earlier posts, has now been edited at my request. Further communication will be by PM.

Thanks (Looks as though this could cost some beer!) and regards

Thanks,

That's great.

Janet & I will be at the Anantara from 28th to the Saturday before Songkran. I would very much like to meet up with Richard (and buy you a beer too, if you are up for it!).

Will send you a PM with further details.


Many Thanks

Hi Bamboo Grove, Thanks for the response. Richard's surname is as the original post title has been removed. Whilst he would undoubtedly recognise the name Pete B at SCJ, the names are Peter & Janet, now living near Chichester, UK. I am always wary of using full names on boards. Cheers Peter [ ed...

Check out the web deals for Eva Airways (and flight reviews http://www.airlinequality.com/Forum/seats.htm )

Best Prices (especially if you want premium economy ) I could find from LHR and AMS.

Its a long trip and a bit extra legroom may be worth it.

Lev, My view. The idea is good - for both 'out of towners' and locals I would think. It could be difficult though, because there is great subjectivity - type of food may not appeal, even though the quality & price may be good. 'Out of towners' would probably be interested in type of food (Thai, ...

Many thanks Lev,

There appears to be a variety of info on the web regarding the airport - mostly undated (or unable to be accurately dated).

ANANTARA . WHAT DO YOU THINK OF IT?

Hi Lev / Betts / All Following on (belatedly) from the earlier posts, I would love to know if Betts stayed at the Anantara and get a first hand opinion. My wife and I are due to spend a few days in BKK at the end of March and then come down to Hua Hin on 28th for a couple of weeks, staying at the An...
