Cheap as chips
Dans still around and promoting pattaya, telling us What he spends 2,000 THB on every Saturday in Thailand. maybe not what u think.
2,000 THB (USD$60) is it


I have to say, I really enjoy it. There is quite a diversity to what I get done and by the end of the day I am ready for a nice cold beer somewhere.
This vlog looks at what I get done and how much I spend, and when you look at it – compared to the Western world – it looks remarkably good value. Life can, when you get it right, be wonderful as an Expat in Thailand.

I catch his blogs sometime. On the whole I like them, but he keeps pumping Patts as the best place for expats, which he does claim, whilst at least part of what he does is selling property. I was there last weekend and I wouldnt live there if you paid me! It's Thailands equivalent to Blackpool - with sex. Although so much of it is still geared towards Thais rather than farangs.

He visited the UK recently, and was mightily p****d when his Russian wife couldn't get a visa, or was delayed to such an extent, she couldn't travel with him. Many pointed out to him the golden rule of getting your visas then booking your trip. He really should have know better.

Dan talking telephone numbers again, Zensiri Midtown Luxury pool villas are developed by ESS Group.
Hurry up 7 villas sold already, A good investment say's dan, if your quick you can watch your own villa being built
The 3 and 4 bedroom pool villas are well worth checking out and can be located just off Third road, There are tens of thousands of condo units in Central Pattaya but very few modern villas.
Prices start at 17.45 mil bht

stairway to heaven - dan in chanthabury hope you made merit Roger, it's a long old slog.
Hey it's dan, visiting a Buddha Footprint, which he later discovered was fundamentally a huge boulder up super high in a mountain at Chanthaburi along the Eastern Seaboard of Thailand.your chance to pay your highest merit to Buddha by committing to this long trek up into the mountains. you can hardly hear him as for the bumpy ride, at the start. but the vid imo is worth a view. dan gets a sweat on but all good fun. amazing Thailand

Thanks for the video Tiggs - I've made several efforts to go up without success.

We know it as Khao Kitchakut and it is quite high - but the Soi Dao area to the east, about 70km from Chantaburi, is much higher and you can take the trails yourself.

I've asked if I could walk up KK very early morning but it's not allowed. Lovely of course and great views on the right day. It's a typical Thai very touristy set-up . . . I prefer a lonely walk myself.

This year two of the pick ups collided I believe and there were some nasty injuries.

But thanks again - I've seen it now   ;D

yes roger a lonely walk, you never know what you might find, i wandered the dorset countryside for years, just an old stick. apple n orange in pocket and off i went up hill n down dale. i just liked the solitude of being away from it all. restoring and refreshing. YES! a very touristy set-up.

thanks for the reply

I just looked at that video about Zensiri in central Patts. My first reaction was what a dump the surrounding area looks, the 2nd was how close the villas are to each for 17m. Looks like there would be little real privacy and I think we all know we can take his 'guarenteed' rental returns with a pinch of salt. I also thought the monthy fees a little on the low side, I pay 2260pm, but that does depend on the size of the land, but what about electricity and water, will that be controlled by the developer, or will you be directly linked to the PEA and main water supply - and how reliable is that?

The Banyon company built a huge development - now fronting a dual carriageway - just south of Hua HHin, a good few years back. They were pricey, as you would expect, but not as much as Zensiri, it also has a highly regarded golf course attached, and they promised a 'guarenteed' rental income, that never materilased as promised. It did for some, for a certain amount in any case, but not for others. Some owners felt conned. It was quite a story at the time.
