Quite interesting and excellent video quality! I reckon many will think the narrator is an obnoxious wanker but it's compelling stuff! Thanks for posting Sir Duke!

Secrets just opened on Street 136. It has the same logo as Secrets in Pattaya so maybe there is common ownership. Or not. I've seen lots of unconnected bars using the same Cocktails and Dreams logo. Seems like they are trying to be pretentious in an area where nobody wants fancy. There is a huge grand entranceway, which seems like such a waste. Inside there is a band that was too loud for my tastes. Took a look at the menu and the cheapest draft beer was 4 USD WTF. Usually I will stay for a beer once I walk in but 4 bucks is taking the piss in an area where the more expensive bars try to get a way with with charging 2 bucks for a beer with $1.50 being the most common price for a draft. So I walked less than a minute to Madamme Butterfly which has dollar drafts from 9PM to 3AM and 50 cent drafts before 9PM. If you sit outside at Madamme Butterfly it gives a great view of the epicenter of the ladyboy zone. Each venue on that corner (Street 136 and Street 5) has a huge TV and u can chill watching the comings and going. But if live music such as at Secrets strikes your fancy, there is upstairs at Oscars on Street 104 with a band and buck fifty beers.

Bly is waiting for you!

Most beer bars and gogos in the LOS will not be serving booze on Friday, July 27th and Saturday, July 28th. Therefore many will close. Plan accordingly and order takeout from Thai Friendly.

Happy Birthday Emmy! Should be a great party!!!! Wish I was in Thailand so I could go.

Then he heads down to Drinking Street and Dolphin Roundabout. Lots of new businesses are catering to Chinese tourists.

Billionaire creep Elon Musk calls hero diver Vern Unsworth a pedophile. Musk's erratic behaviour caused Tesla's stock to plummet 3% in one day. Besides Tesla, Musk is the head honcho at SpaceX. Maybe he is headed to Uranus.

For Thailand, I think bringing cash and making the exchange at the Airport Rail Link booths (technically not in the airport) might be the best option. Extremely small buy/sell spreads. In an emergency situation World Remit is an option. You don't get the best exchange rate but if American is sending money to Cambodia there is no exchange rate since you will be receiving USD. What's nice is that there are cash pickup locations so it is like Western Union. World Remit and other useful Links

Is the Daily Mail reliable or is it "fake news"?

US actress Scarlett Johansson has pulled out of a movie in which she was cast to play a transgender character following a backlash from some members of the LGBT community who believed the part should have gone to a transgender actor. Johansson had agreed to take a role in Rub & Tug as Dante "Tex" Gill — a real-life American crime kingpin who used his massage parlour as a front for prostitution in the 1970s and 1980s.

Here's one to avoid.

I agree Don. It is well worth 1000 baht to keep the cops out of almost any situation.

Discovery Channel is set to air the first feature documentary of the rescue of the Wild Boars football team from the flooded Tham Luang cave in Chiang Rai. The hour long Operation Thai Cave Rescue will air on Friday 13th July at 10pm ET/PT on Discovery Channel in the United States, followed by another airing on Science Channel on Saturday 14th July at 10pm ET/PT. Not sure when it will air in Europe and Asia. Check your local listings.

Two heroes from the UK!
