Evening time again and I decide to go for a meal at the Pattaya Beer Garden.
I haven't been there for a couple of years and was looking forward to it. But when I got there the wait for a table,the service & the food was bad. Over 40 mins to wait for a table and get a menu.
The food when I finally got it wasn't very good either.
I dont think I will go here again?

I was back in Bangkok for the second time on my 2015 trip.
The evening of 29.11.15 I went back to Soi Cowboy and ended up outside Suzie Wong's again for a few Chang's. Sat there for a while to watch the world go by. It was a nice warm evening and the chang's were cold.

Part 2

Bridges Crabs Smoothies & Bars
Continued from part 1,
I make it down to Khlong Lat Pho (คลองลัดโพธิ์) which is a nice view point to the rather impressive Bhumibol 1 Bridge สะพานภูมิพล 1 . It really is a sight to see.
Now feeling hungry I scoot over to a restaurant I have visited before and know is very good.
Its the turn of Huapla chongnonsea Seafood Restaurant บริษัท หัวปลาช่องนนทรี จำกัด to get a visit from the Knobbster on his 2016 trip.
Two dishes this time , Stir-fried crab meat with curryเนื้อปูผัดผงกระหรี่ & สะตอผัดกุ้ง Stir fried prawns & pork with stink beans. Both were very nice. Every time I go there I choose something different and enjoy what I choose.
Then it was time to move on up the road. I end up going to Soi 7/1 to Vasu money exchange then round to Soi 11 and a little mini bar that I remember does a mean smoothie. My first thought was to then go down to Lumpini Park สวนลุมพินี but checking the time I decide to head over to Vertigo & moon bar which is on the the roof of the Banyan Tree Hotel.
Amazing views to enjoy there and it's a bar you just have to visit.

Deer Suspension Bridge Chumphon Thailand
Vlog # 250 13.11.23
After a very wet day down in Chumphon I came across the unusually named
" Deer suspension bridge" so had to stop and take a look.
A good place to visit if you like wildlife and places that are different.

EXPAT Living in Thailand Part 3
Vlog # 224 5.8.19
The final part this week.
I take you up to the top floor and show you the household, electrical and clothing sections.
Much like Tesco back in England, there is a range of items available to suit your needs and budget.
Once again at the time of filming the baht was very high against the Pound sterling and the U.S dollar.

Bridge Over the River Kwai Tour Part 5
From vlog # 41, the train powers up and we start the next leg of the tour.
We had been told by the tour guide if we paid a little extra we would get "better" seating on the train.So we did, when we got on the train and saw the "better" seating was actualy just wooden bench seats we all wondered what the lesser seating was like !
Oh well may aswell just sit back and go with it. It was nice to get a breeze and see some of the country side. As there was no windows those of us with cameras spent most of the journey hanging out of the windows taking stills photos and shooting movies . It was a hot and dusty joruney but some good sights on the way. The "Dangerous Curve" being one of them .
The joruney ended with lunch at a resturant which was very welcome. We all needed some shade,some cold drinks and some lunch at this point.

Vlog # 80 Part 5
3.12.16
Evening time now and I go out in search of some Thai food.
Tonight its the turn of Ros Nung Restaurant รสหนึ่ง to get a visit.
I have a lovely meal and then its time to move on.
As it is Saturday night this means its Saturday night market night. So I head over for a look around.
The crowds are more than last year and its really busy.
After a look around I stop over at the famous street food stall
Khao Kha Moo Chang Phueak (ข้าวขาหมูช้างเผือก) aka “The lady in the cowboy hat”
When in Chiang Mai this is another stall you HAVE to goto and eat at.
After this great meal I end the day.
