Re: Ask Degen Anything About Living In Thailand
Oh man. I don't think i'll be bothered to drag my own clubs there the first time around but what I hear it seems there should be no problem in renting very nice clubs? I'm lucky i'm a standard in everything so off the shelf clubs are perfect. But I will miss my pings [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Re: Ask Degen Anything About Living In Thailand
A Thailand checklist
- Thai street food = everything is fantastic, especially seafood, spicy - tailored suits (a quality armani copy suit + shirt + pants < $150) - fake diesel/D&G/versace/armani exchange/etc shirts everywhere for ~$3 each - almost everything you could buy in the USA + Siam Paragon = larges luxury mall in southeast asia with Chanel/Versace/Gucci/Rolex type stores, has an imax theater and a giant aquarium floor + Emporium = smaller/older version of Paragon + MBK = cheaper stuff (take on the teen thais at LAN counterstrike) + Platinum = clothes - BTS skytrain and MRT subway to travel around downtown Bangkok = fast - Clubs = Qbar and Club Bedrock - go-go bars = Nana & Soi Cowboy (Dollhouse has naked dancers) - Cabaret Show - transvestite dancers - Golf = world class courses - Thai Massages = amazing, "Foot Massage, Sir?" - Taxis = costs $1-2 to travel long distances - Culture = 95% buddhist, extremely friendly, passive, polite, nice - Weather = 85F daily and sunny (Sept/Oct it rains a bit, Nov-Feb is bit cooler but not much) - Beaches/Islands = Phuket & Krabi, Kata Beach in Phuket is amazing. Patpong is full of bars and go-go girls, even kickboxing matches. Take the Phi Phi Islands Tour, James Bond Tour, 4 Islands Tour, scuba diving, jetski, snorkel, swim. Use AirAsia.com to travel there for <$40 from Bangkok - History = Grand Palace (emerald buddha!), Ayutthaya (former capital) - Muay Thai Kickboxing = "In Bangkok, Lumphini stadium and Ratchadamnoen have matches on alternate days of the week, usually consisting of eight bouts and starting at about 6pm." - Thai Girls! |

Nicer courses have nicer clubs of course. I have had rental callaways that were pretty sweet. If you are here for any period of time, just put the clubs in luggage. I rock Ping's too - old school Ping Zings. |

I finally checked the out Lumpinee fights last tuesday night. I was a bit surprised at the cost though. 2000b for first class. It was worth it though. We saw two killer knockouts. |
