Day 5. Time to check out of Raya Hotel. As much as I like it for its location, big rooms and the glass shower, there are some cons for me. Firstly, there are no toothbrushes in the toilet! Imagine you come back with a guy at midnight and both need to brush teeth (before you can start kissing!) and you realise you need to ask reception!

You'e just angling for that $100 gift LOL

I regret I totally disagree with @vinapu. Granted this year the rainfall problem that has devastated many Asian countries with Indonesia, Thailand and Sri Lanka the worst hit has been unusually high. The Philippines, Malaysia and Vietnam are not far behind in terms of rainfall and destruction. But it is certainly not the first time the south has ben flooded. This from The Nation - Recent severe flooding in Hat Yai is yet another wake-up call that Thailand remains unprepared to cope with climate change. This is not the first time the South has been devastated – similar floods struck Hat Yai in 2000 and 2010, and other regions have suffered from extreme weather. Yet, despite these warnings, preparedness remains inadequate. The latest deluge dumped 635 millimetres of rain in three days, submerging central Hat Yai, stranding thousands of residents and tourists, and once again we saw how extreme weather is becoming more frequent and damaging. https://www.nationthailand.com/the-opinion/commentary/40058777 And as @floridarob pointed out some posts ago - The increasing severity of cyclones is certainly partly due to the oceans getting warmer. With the feeble attempts by the world's governments even to acknowledge and then do something about global warming, it is only going to get worse. And that inevitably means that annual flooding will increase. Forget this being a once in a 300 year event. It is bound to happen more frequently, although perhaps - I only suggest perhaps - at not such a level of severity. As for retirement in Hat Yai, I would think long and hard before moving there. I experienced the massive flooding in Bangkok in 2011. I would never wish to go through that again - and my condo was hardly affected. The effect of global warming and the resultant warming of the oceans has other undesirable consequences. As has been known now for nearly a decade but rarely mentioned by the Thai authorities,warmer waters resulted in the deadly Australian box jellyfish arriving off Thai waters. Already a few Thais and tourists have been killed through their stings. The numbers being caught in fishermen's nets indicate that this problem is only going to get worse.

That is the same thing all over the world unfortunately, including in the US. Language acquisition is how we gain the ability to speak, by…you guessed it, speaking. But most school based instruction is vocabulary, grammar, verb conjugation. You learned all of that from your family before you were able to read. Language acquisition is really interesting.

Go in a group and get bottle of whisky for 4000 baht. Unlimited mixers and can invite models to drink with you.

you must be my long lost twin brother

The tour guide on my recent trip said that while English is mandatory in the public schools, what they teach is written English, not spoken English. If that is, in fact, the case, it should be the reverse. They should focus more on conversation.

Yes. I agree.

since this flood is result of heaviest rainfall in 300 years, I venture to guess chance of you encountering such calamity there are not extremely big

off them one by one and they tell you

There are just six of us (sister, brother-in-law, nephew 1 + wife, nephew 2, and myself) so we decided several years ago to do a secret Santa type thing. We draw names and only buy for that one person. It can be from a list the person has created or totally a surprise item. Maximum amount to spend is $100 USD. That works well for us. Only need to worry about that one person and it is a reasonable dollar amount. Nothing too extravagant. As I mentioned previously, I don't do Christmas cards anymore via mail. The few I do send are e-cards online through free services. Not something I subscribe to or pay for.

I know

what is better then long German sausage ? Two long German sausages

You have a wonderful and kind heart!

I would. Either contact guy and ask to pick it up or deliver to his bar / spa

I probably would too

I think it may be temporary client milking in high season and expect fee go back to 500 after 1st week of January if not sooner

Some years ago my family and friends made a pact - no presents at Christmas and no cards. An exchange of emails is welcome as it helps bring everyone up to date with what has happened during the year. And a WhatsApp call around that time is always welcome. Mind you, if someone was suddenly to send me a 250 gram tin of Beluga caviar I certainly would not send it back. I might, though, ask what happened to the bottle of best vodka which should accompany it!

My spies are telling me that there's new , quite upscale, place a celled Titan in the same Silom Plaza where Arena is. No reports from visit so far.

Hope certain weeknights don't mean Monday to Sunday, sigh

Since @Paco-Campos is new to the forum, might i suggest that he starts a new topic/thread perhaps titled something like What Makes for Good Gay Party? Might get some interesting responses. Anyway, welcome to the forum.

Just one night? That's all you can afford at the Capella?
