Pattaya, friends & food 2022
Pattaya, friends & food 2022 & life is very good. I’m told Australia is getting more expensive every few months as opposed to Thailand which remains very affordable.
This group of reprobates dining at L’Auberge from the right are Bill Edge from Airlie Beach, yours truly, Joergen Ulitza from Melbourne & finally John Martin, aka Pothole Bin Laden.
Beautiful fresh vegetables
While we are on the subject of food check out these delicious vegetables from Playa Bistro on the ground floor of my condo at Markland.
Rain damage September 6
Not unexpected as September is Pattaya’s wettest month.
Impossible to stop this
The rain pours down from 2nd road, jumps the Beach Rd footpath & carries away the sand. I have lived on Beach Rd for 11 years & it’s always been the same.
Check out the Pattaya webcam, just click here.
Here’s a smile to brighten your day

Fabulous oysters from France, many thanks to the owner who gave us a 50% discount down to B900 or $36 AUD.
Heavy construction on 2nd rd.
This used to be a bowling alley, it’s na huge site which may end up as condos.
Drinks at Playa
A very nice Bistro & bar on the ground floor of my condo Markland, on the corner of Beach Rd & Soi 1.

I’m guessing this was around 2002.
Sadly we lost Richard yesterday, RIP.
Richard Blair is the big fellow in the middle, beside him is Ken Shelly. Here is a post from 2004 showing many more shots of Richard.
