Cocktails & Dreams Bar, Phuket

[f0xxee]

I read a report in The Nation (Thai Falang newspaper) that stated that the baht was not artificially high, rather the western currencies were all devalued due to the massive trade deficits that most of the west is encumbered with, as opposed to the fact Thailand (apparently) has a export surplus. I guess this could be true and a rational explanation.
It would appear that although yes, the tourism sector has taken a drubbing, the rice keeps growing and the Toyotas keep selling.
It sounds at least feasible.

there's some truth in that. I think we. in the west, have got complacent over the years - taking it for granted our high wages and high standards of living. But its catching up, and we're going to have to accept a decline, while the East rises.
Mind you, i still can't believe Thailand will keep up, when their menfolk seem to do little other than sleep under a tree or drink whisky! Throw the political situation into the mix, and i really do shake my head at the strength of the baht.

Before i vanished with maria, i caught an impromptu cabaret back at HQ, which by that time was very quiet, and the girls just wanted to have some fun.

Great pictures. I live part of the time in Bangkok and I am supposed to be returning on 29th May. However I undestand that my apartment is inaccessible as it is in the war zone, even though quite a long way from Siam Square etc. So I may simply go straight to Pattaya and hope the situation is sorted soon. Two questions - where is Cocktails and Dreams and can anyone recommend an hotel within convenient distance.
