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?

Just look for what Americans call a 'mom and pop shop' --- almost certain to be open and selling alcohol. I once went to my local for a few beers but said to the lady "I'll hang on a moment, there a policeman on his motorbike outside." She replied "Don't worry, he also buys his beer here". OR send a motor bike taxi to buy for you.

My point. Why are they so insistent on the more expensive version?

I'm not a spirit drinker but it always amazed me that the Thais much prefer Johnny Walker Black rather than Red and then drown it with Coke or even Coke and Soda.

I meant adulterated as in diluted to little or no alcohol.

555 yes the bars are all heart.

There was a law at sometime that all bar and restaurant staff had to wear a name or number badge.

Except, if it's a spirit, it will not be the same strength as yours -- in some cases only Coke.

When they get individually served drinks, they have virtually no alcohol in them. Buy a bottle or bottled beers and tip them what the bar would have paid them (20 baht per drink?).

Postponed till next year. View today's (Saturday) Tim Newton Live on Youtube -- about 35 minutes in.

'twas ever thus. Interesting to know if any investigations have been done to see the validity of this practice.
