Koh Samui

OK, tangent time.

You mentioned chemists. Turns out Kodak started as a chemical company and made most of their money from film and chemicals. Their board actually purchased several digital patents and suppressed them, because they thought digital cameras would pose a threat to their chemical plants and factories that produced the film. Quite rightly. They didn't decide to embrace the future and technology, just thought they could ride out the "phase" or "trend".

I love it when shortsighted, greedy people end up eating shit.

Unless they have stock options..

So much to comment on in this vid.
The 1st place he stays at and vids is the roof top pool at hacienda at Bohput - Hacienda ,where I stayed last trip.(Also at 19:30)
When he pulls out and onto the Ring rd . I think , "Look hard right at the Massage Girls !".
Instead he stops with what he thinks is a flat . And meets some.
Next hes at Mynt Bar where I last met up with baccy to watch Rugby Union.
Then Coconut ... Bikini appears closed already...
The bar lady with the cat ( was gonna say 'pussie' 55 ) is familiar to.
baccy will like this vid.

Land prices are still the same if not a bit more but tightly held so selling much less often..Thai on Thai house and land sales have pretty much dried up, hardly any new builds...the big farang developments have ground to a trickle and those way over priced farang "luxury villas" that were once advertised at 30 mil have dropped to 20..the 20mils have dropped to 15 and so on down the farang on farang price band market..
