Christmas Lunch 25-Dec-25 For the third year in a row, I decided to book Christmas lunch at the Red Lion on soi 13 again. The Red Lion is a traditional English pub that has become quite an institution in BKK over the years. I have had a lot of problems with my leg since I flew back, so I left it until the 24th to make the booking. Luckily I managed to get a slot for 1600-1800, which is a bit later than I prefer, but beggars cannot be choosers. The Red Lion offers a very flexible set of choices for Christmas lunch: The Menu I was joined by @Behan and as I had tried to drink my weight in whisky last night, I decided the best course of action was to follow him with a soft welcome drink. @Behan ordered the main course option and I went for the two courses, foregoing the desserts, as I didn't want to aggravate the leg. The portions were very generous and the food was both authentic and good quality. Starter - Prawn Cocktail Main Course - Turkey and Ham There were representatives from all the major food groups on the over-sized plate and even two items which always triggered great debate in our family household. I remember endless annual arguments between my sisters and parents about whether peas and Yorkshire Pudding were traditional for Christmas lunch. My parents had a Victorian colonial outlook and it was considered heresy to serve Yorkshire puddings with anything other than roast beef. Thankfully traditions do change with the times. The jury is out on the peas, but I am glad that Yorkshire Pudding has now become a new tradition. Coffee I ended my meal with a coffee, which at the Red Lion is Lavazza and is very good. Summary If you are in BKK next Christmas and at a loss as to where to celebrate on the 25-Dec, I would highly recommend the Red Lion. This pub also serves very good Sunday Roasts, all day breakfasts, as well as other standard British pub food. Baht Buster Breakfast - THB 150 I had the Lorne Breakfast with @Kingdomguy earlier this year and he gave it the Caledonian seal of approval! SAG

Whores who find the term 'ladyboy' offensive? Where on earth is this world heading

Bullshit. "Ladyboy" is what they call each other. As a matter of fact, I have never heard an LB use any other term than "ladyboy".

In the last year I’ve used Nam’s taxis several times and it cost 1500 between Sukhumvit to Pattaya, and 1200 between Suvarnabhumi and Pattaya. I’m pretty sure that on one occasion the cost was slightly higher because they didn’t have a small car available.

If I recall, it's a 10kg for the overhead, plus an under seat bag with no weight limit. No meal, I'm not a lover of airline catering. I'll be stuffing myself in the lounge before I leave and will have some bits and pieces with me for the flight if I get peckish, but I usually fit all my meals into a 8 hour window and then nothing for the other 16, so it pretty much fits into my normal routine.

I've only ever heard the girls refer to themselves by that term. So that's the word I use.

Waiting to hear back from them @Unavowed, the rate is v reasonable on the website. I'll report how I get on if I book with them.
