How about the new huge Foodland In the complex opposite Soi 4 (ex Boots) I forget the name(Park Silom?).

I may have been mistaken over all these years but I had assumed it was a LoSo hotel for the lady bars.

Stop it Min! I'm earing my lunch.

I'm spending CHRISTMAS at home here in Bangkok with dinner at Balcony Pub. CHRISTMAS here is not 'rammed' but New Year's Eve certainly will be.

Vinapu, have you looked at the exchange rates recently or the U.K. freezing pensions at the rate that pertained at the date of retirement?

Have a look at Bangkok Post on line today!!! Monday the 9th of December.

Perleeeeze --- I'm eating lunch.

You--- spring chicken.

I remember Vichai. Some of my Thai friends were working/visiting in Garden and Harries and were raided by the police one night. All were taken to the police station and herded into a cell overnight, Vichai included. Vichai demanded cushions to sit on on the floor and was surrounded like a queen. The ground floor of Robinson's was 'Dairy Queen' and was a notorious area for young, probably illegal, boys.

Ye gods Mavica -- how old ARE you? Must be as old as me! Harry's was my first bar as well. Some sort of show with the 'showboys' dancing in the grubbiest shoes I've seen. The 'ladies' in the show were about as classy as the boys shoes -- but a lot of fun. At two o/clock Harries closed and we were all ushered through a door at the back into another VERY late bar -- damn the name has just escaped me. (Ciro???) Next floor up was full of very young lads doing what seemed like 'line dancing'. Then above that Harry had a gym. A few doors away was Charlies Bar. Very long and narrow --- at the end away from the soi was classical music videos. At the soi end was the owner and cash till and porno (for those days) videos. The owner ,who talked the hind legs off a donkey was Charlie, who's claim to fame was that he appeared in 'Good Morning Vietnam' as an extra as a doctor, with about 2 lines of dialogue. When Ciros finally closed it was all over to the 24 hour bars at Malaysia Hotel till the early daylight hours.

Which soi 3 is this? What was the price?

Indeed, thriving and bustling when khun Bon and the awful water melon (Madam Tangmo) ruled the area . Worth the weekend flights after work . Is Bon still around ?

Trump loves the uneducated. If your result of the suggested literacy test show you to be educated and literate, then you can be barred from voting.

Dream on 😂😜😝 You might find it more of a nightmare ---- most have .

It's fantasy!

Ye gods NO!

I thought it was a joke, Vin.

Yes the motorcycle taxi boys could well be at a loose end with so many businesses closed.

I was suggesting to buy alcohol -- not boys🤣😂

And for those arriving on that day?

Or as I suggested in an earlier post, send a motor bike taxi boy to buy for you. They will always know who is selling. Maybe give him a can as an extra tip😂.

thanks bkkmfj2648. Couldn't find it on any calendars.

Which holiday is this Thursday?
