Udon Quiet? or is it just me?

Post by bumper » September 4, 2008, 6:55 pm

Normaly this time of the month you go into Lotus to use the ATM and there will be lines five deep to get the money from honey. Thai's standing there with scars of paper for muiltiple accounts and poking away at the ATM like it's a video game.

Five days now we have walked right and used the machines no lines at all. Loutus look like a ghost town for this normally busy time of the month

They were saying, tourist cancellations to Phuket and Hat-Yai were
approaching 50% with all the nonsense going-on at the airports.
And this has already been a painful "low season" by all accounts,
You just can't flip a light switch and get all these people back. [-(

It was very quiet down my soi last night.
Not a dog barking.
Probably something to do with the rain.
Managed a decent nights sleep for once.
Some rain in Bangkok might cool things down there as well.

Maybe the Locals are staying in and waiting for the inevitable political resolution to this week's events...

Friday evening, the line at the ATM at Tesco was 20 people deep for one of the machines.
