Newbies they still exist


Recommended Posts

So I have a mate of mine who asked me are Thai dentists really any good?

 

He has a mouth full of holes, not cavities, holes, and could buy a new Tesla for what it would cost to fix in Farangland.

 

Yep, in Thailand mostly I've had great experiences, 2 shitty ones, back in Farangland 2 great experiences and mostly shitty ones so I'm sold on Thai dental care.

 

So ignoring my recommendation, of a place in Rama 9 area, he found on dental place in Sukhumvit, in the heart of Soi Arab area.

 

Seems quite ok by the website, cost would only cover 4 tyres, the following days will tell. 

 

But as he's a complete newbie, and he claims, regularly, ZERO interest in nightlife!!!

I suggested he stay in Rama9, or Victory Monument. His budget is, well, budget, I know places there that charge by the day not the hour for the rate he wants, so together we found a bunch, preferring Vic Monument so he could get the SkyTrain to the Dental clinic easily.

 

He told me he was definitely NOT interested in night life, he doesn't drink, or do drugs, so, I believe him, letting him book which ever hotel he wants.

 

He has my number so he can call when he lands in case of problems. I suggested he gets the SkyTrain directly to his hotel, cheaper and safer than taxi and frankly easier to explain. He doesn't want to carry Farang $'s so he will get Baht from the airport ATM, easy. 10,000 baht will cover for the first few days at least! As hotel is prepaid he tells me. 

 

So he lands, gets a little lost within the airport calls me a few times, finally after a long discussion he understands that he can't use a money exchange, as he didn't bring any money . . . and uses an airport ATM and gets out and tells me he has a hotel booked but not Victory Monument.

 

Suk Soi 7

 

WTF

 

That's a bit hard core. You'll be surrounded by nightlife

 

Really? He asks me?

 

Yeah, well enjoy 

 

So next day dawns and I get a call, he can't find internet, it's 2024, not 2004, he's becoming the ultimate newbie.

 

What ATM can I use? 

 

Well what are their names? 

 

One is blue and one is another colour, very helpful. NAMES???

 

Oh! It dawns on him their is English on the machines. Thai Military Band and SCB.

 

Ok, you can use those, but get on the internet to see what your being charged? Didn't you get 10,000 out last night?

 

He doesn't telle where there 10,000 baht went

 

But tells me he has internet issues

 

He won't put a Thai Sim card in his phone  because he might miss a call from Farangland. I point out he's unemployed, no wife, no family, just who will call? Take out the Farang Sim and out in a Thai one OR learn to use this magic thing called WiFi 

 

Anyway, that's not the problem.

 

The hotel sucka, it's aweful.

 

Excellent! Move to Victory Monument, Rama 9 anywhere away from Sukhumvit and I'll feel safer for you.

 

No it's all good he tells. I've found a much better hotel.

 

It's in Soi 5.

 

The ultimate Newbie!

 

That is Arab and Nigeria central. Drug deals and whore all night! You will not last!

 

Oh! I noticed some African looking people, are they Nigerian? They seem very friendly.

 

I am waiting for tomorrows call . . .

Dentists in Farangland should be made to wear balaclavas

Been going to this place for almost 20 years. All prices on website. Highly recommend. I did my research before deciding on this place.
