This is my first posting - be gentle with me!
Sincere thanks to all posters for all the invaluable information that's available here. Wisdom from experience! Every topic under the sun and in the shade. Plenty of hilarity amongst the more serious topics. I'm coming back for most of July. £430.00 strikes me as good price for an Eva Air flight. Started visiting LOS in 93. Was around town in March for my first visit to Hua Hin. Felt at home pretty soon. Really enjoyed day long picnics on Suan Son beach with my GF and family. Amazed at how quiet it was on a Saturday. Hope to move to HH before too long.
Thanks again for your entertaining writing. It's become quite addictive.

Welcome aboard.
I think you've found the way to enjoy life in Hua Hin already; lazy lunches on the beach followed by a bit of moderate nightlife. (Unless you want to spend all day in the sun trying to knock a small white ball down a hole for 3,000 bt, that is!)

Welcome to the forum roger. Just remember there's a big difference between kneeling down and bending over...

Welcome Radical Roger,

What are you "radical" about?

Me too at this statement

Suan Son is usually packed at weekends, mostly by the Bangkok tourists. Must have been a rare occasion.

Monday to Friday is when the place is usually quiet

Anyway - welcome to HHAD

Thanks for 'welcomes'. Yep, if I have right name of beach, after a bit of a stroll away from the car park it was pretty quiet. Clean sand, gentle slope - ideal for a 3 year old to play. Shade from the pines. Certainly relative to what I saw in ChaAm on a Saturday or other tourist resorts in Thailand. I guess the best part was nobody trying to sell me stuff every 5 mins.
Been a tree surgeon for 37 years. Still climbing at 55 years. Trying to gently persuade customers to be brave when considering pruning or changes in their gardens got me the 'radical roger' title. Seeing the results a year or so afterwards they have always been grateful. I liked the irony that chainsaws are/were to a degree not so widely available in Thailand to the general public.
I hope to make a garden in Thailand and looking forward to learning as I go. Is there a 'gardening group' in Hua Hin?

"Radical Roger' the tree surgeon! Welcome - I think you'll slot into the eccentricities of this forum with no difficulty at all!
