So few remain - however remain emotionally attached to thai360.com.
Pom Michael replied to Kiwi's topic in General discussion
Agreed - once or twice a year type of event would be good. Anyone remember the name of the venue where we had the Server Party? On Soi 11 if I remember correctly. -

Thailand and Saudi Arabia seek to move on from 30-year row over diamond heist
Pom Michael replied to Coss's topic in News
Any idea what type of Test & Go he gets upon return? -
I thought they were talking about Rupiah! 1,000,000 Indonesian Rupiah equals $69.74 United States

Stick taking another break it seems
Pom Michael replied to My Penis is hungry's topic in Expat Nightlife
Ok, so the plot thickens - ? I have no idea if Stickboy was anyway connected to the Stickman site - https://www.stickboybkk.com I now see (source = Twitter) - that the person behind the Stickboy media network has left Thailand - and per his own announcement - for good. Related or just a strange coincidence? -

Thanks Stick - I thought as much but wanted to post here figuring you would give us the inside scoop. -

Anyone know what is going on with Stickman Uncensored? -
Yes - exactly - you need to do a real test when you arrive at the hotel here. Once the results come in (and negative) then you're free to leave the hotel.

Not quite smoothly yet though - I saw reports of places being closed down for not having the SHA+ required certification. Also from today's clarification - but Baby Steps! “For those who do not finish their alcoholic drinks after the 9pm deadline, they should take their bottles home or try to drink up or just throw them away. Officials will be sent to make regular inspections.” My suggestion is to pay attention to domestic tourism first, then bring on the internationals - and even then start with people who basically want to come "home" to Thailand (for work / family) before the "normal" tourism is opened.

The PM may have been exposed to the COVID virus directly - which under the present guidelines would mean he needs to self-isolate for 14 days! PM Prayut-self-isolates-after-covid-exposure-at-phuket-reopening

Thai ban on International/American travel to Thailand
Pom Michael replied to dean's topic in Travel/Transportation
Hey Dean - I would guess that July would be a good date to expect this. The expectation is that the quarantine will be reduced to 7 days for fully vaccinated people as early as April. -
Vaccine passports approved to cut quarantine time in Thailand
Pom Michael replied to Flashermac's topic in News
Yes, I saw that - but that is just the cost for the piece of paper - not the actual vaccine! -
Brings back memories of the 3M (MMM) Hotel!

Sorry - that did not come out correctly - no - I don't own them - but they are available for sale - at least it seems. Didn't Khun Sanuk own the nanaplaza domain in the past? It used to redirect to the forum back in 2004/2005. -

Hey Stick - good to see you here again. A few weeks ago you write an article about the old Bangkok based bloggers - that was a time travel piece back in history for me. Time for someone to consolidate a few newer bloggers/vloggers or now Twitter/Tiktok stars - something for Stickboy or someone. I'm surprised I never figured out the connection between Stickman and Stickboy. Still have both http://www.nanaplaza.com and http://soicowboy.com domains for sale! -
Larry King died today - just announced on CNN.

Almost 10 years since the last post - but here is a duplicate from another section I just posted:- Will Tahitian Queen (TQ) rise again? Let's hope so. https://www.gofundme.com/f/save-a-local-business-Thailand https://www.pattayamail.com/featured/tahitian-queen-pattayas-oldest-bar-calls-it-quits-after-42-years-339508#:~:text=By Pattaya Mail,last time after 42 years. TL;DR VersionMy father, Woody, has been living as an expat in Thailand for over 30 years. He spent most of his time helping children in need using the motorcycle-club turned charity drive, the Jesters’ Care 4 Kids. With his good friend Bob, Woody co-owns a well-known rock & roll bar in Pattaya, and that has been their only source of income for the past several decades. The pandemic has worn down tourism and thus businesses across Thailand, and soon the bar will no longer be able to stay afloat. With another lockdown being imminent, I’m hoping to help the bar limp along until businesses can operate as usual again. JANUARY 8, 2021by Chuliporn Underwood, Organizer Hi everyone, Although the bar has been forced closed due to COVID, it is still paying rent. The Pattaya Mail article made it seem like it is closed permanently, but we still have a chance to save it! Thank you so much for donating and sharing this campaign. It means a lot to us. My dad already said he is overwhelmed by your kindness! I asked him if he could share a photo of the bar and he gave me one of him in front of the TQ back when Pattaya beach was still barely developed!

Actually, I was serious. The real story is much different than what is TripAdvisor or the BBC is implying.

What is the real story here?

Cav - you're always on the FAKE NEWS bandwagon, except when it is actually Fake News!

Mekong - that is typical in the airline industry/hotels, etc... when spelling out names. The US (actually NATO) uses the NATO Phonetic Alphabet. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NATO_phonetic_alphabet
