Has anyone had experience with this before?

Most of our floor in the office tested positive including me. I was sent home today but I dont have any real symptoms apart from feeling a bit lethargic. I dont have any coughs colds  or fever and they want me to take these whopping big antibiotic pills.

Is it really necessary?

I have mainly being eating at home of late but I had a friend from Bangkok come down and we have been out for meals the last couple of days.

We may have been unlucky but out of four meals at different establishments we got shocking service in all four. Two were plain incompetent which you get a bit used to here but the other two the service staff were down right rude and nasty.

Yesterday had a late lunch at a well known pub in soi 6 and two meals arrived after about 15 mins. After thirty minutes mine still hadn't come and i enquired politely and was told it would be a minute. 10 minutes later when my companions had finished their meals and mine hadn't arrived i asked again what the problem was and said that 40 minutes was too long and the service was poor. Well then the service staff started getting really nasty saying that mine was difficult to cook and eventually brought the meal out and then proceeded to slam it down and walk off in a huff.
Customer service at its worst.

This morning went down to have breakfast in soi 7 and asked for srcrambled eggs with bacon and toast. Service lady says only cannot. Ask again then she says extra that is the all. Okay i say then meal comes out with scrambled eggs and two fried eggs WTF. I say i dont want fried eggs she says cannot change. Unbelieveably surly the whole time. Walked out without paying or eating the meal. WIll eat at home more from now on.

I wont bore you with the other two stories.

I usually eat with my TG so I am wondering if I have been somewhat insulated from the poor service in Pattaya's eateries because of that?

I am looking for a long term rental in Pattaya Klang. I would like  a 1 bedroom with cooking facilities. (not easy to find).

Does anybody have any ideas or tips out there?

I don't want to spend anymore than 10k baht per month.

Located off Sukhumvit road about 5 mins or so past the Ambassador in Jomtien this restaurant owned by a Thai tv star channel 3 I think is one of my favourite dining places in the Pattaya area.

It has great views back over Jomtien Beach and it has a terraced type set up where you can sit outside and admire the views.

The seafood is very fresh and tasty being a bit higher quality than your Walking St type seafood restaurants.

Prices are reasonable aveaging for us at around 600 baht a head with a cocktail.

I recommend the soft shell crab and the grouper.

Great place to take tourists.

My girlfriend is on a 12 month tourist visa to Oz and one of her girlfriend's who I have known for a number of years wants to come over and visit.

Can I act as her sponsor as well? Has anyone done this before? Comments please?
