when I look at my pictures from 1999 or even 2006 I looked much better too

that's better as thinking that people go voluntarily for aggressive war beyond their country borders makes me cringe. It's one thing to defend St Petersburg from overwhelming Finnish forces but another to try to take Helsinki by force.

what war ? Isn't it special military operation? watch your tongue as you never know what closeted gays from FSB are reading

while you are right I think so is Moses with his suspitions

What you said above must be true as I heard it many times but still there are people, including our members who like that time in Bangkok so I'm tempted to see who is on the right side of the truth. Sad thing is that most miscreants are foreigners , not locals. Certainly i wouldn't carry passport and phone on the street with me at that time. Hottest month sounds even more scary but i so often say ' go and check for yourself' that part of me is tempted to do what I preach

Dorothy, my Golden girls hero along with Sophia, Blanche and Rose Nyland de St.Olaf , MN

you got that right !

I would add some bleach

I'm curious but not THAT curious although one year I need to taste SONGKRAN . March and April are only months I was not in Thailand yet.

visit is always possible , only we are not brave enough to go and rightly so. View on 2nd picture is similar to one on reverse of the 100 rials Yemeni note

20 days and we will know for sure

I can vouch for first two , never been to either Socotra or Yemen's mainland though

I have feeling that Michelin Tyre Man is on his way to deliver yet another star to Foodland Patpong

and Convent road has own share of street food stands but Patpong 1 is the best option as it has plenty of seating although it fills up

I don't know about others but I still have as much fun in Pattaya now than i had when I visited first in 2013. Use ' all we need is one bar and one boy inside we like " principle and fun is never ending

You can't get Bokassa off your head ?

very little but I still like all that space and air coming with it for reason explained above

me too and I know why I like all that space - I grew up in very smalI apartment where every square inch was utilized. One danger of big hotel room is that we may tend to spread our stuff all over and when packing something may be forgotten - see my last trip report where I confess to leaving about 100 000 riels in 5000 riel notes on the night desk. And no, I was not in rush when packing , it just happened.

good to know as those hotels are not too often mentioned here

unfortunately it was not me, that guest breakfasting with said hunk. Meridien is not my league when comes to accommodation unfortunately, LOL

At least some light in the tunnel

I personally wouldn't as I never discuss any specifics with managers or any third parties including boy's friends. Performance specifics are always best to discuss with service provider.

Brilliant !

Removing street food vendors in Bangkok would be like removing gondolliers from Venice just because occasionsionally one of them pee or spit in the water

I'd add Amara.
