Lovely video Darren. I admire you for not going down the MacMaster route of selling your soul to hunt for viral videos every time. You're making the videos you want to make and I'm sure you'll get enough of an audience from people who will tune in to watch you. no matter what kind of video you make. The numbers are going up already! Good luck

The chocolate looks good, but the best chocolate I've ever had was my recent trip to Switzerland, even went to the lindt museum and factory.

HI Darren Thank you for another great video,well that Chocolate Factory looked great with great selection of Chocolates. That place reminds me of the Hotel Chocolate places in the Uk. Glad you enjoyed your Chocolates,just about to go to watch those videos on your other channel. Thank you for sharing.

[@burilad1]

Hey Darren, quite happy to take you to a really great coffee shop on the way to bang saray that you might want to do a video review on. Just drop me a message if you fancy it and I will drive you there 👍

[@macrook1961]

The coffee brandy reminds me of the chocolate liquers we use to get st christmas , not had them for years , Drambuie, Whiskey , Brandy.

[@youwouldvelovedit]

A nice quirky place; especially if you are a chocolate lover ( and let me tell you i love my chocolate ❤️🙂). The artistry of the chocolate pieces was amazing. A nice relaxed ambience.

Personally Darren, I dont need to see the nightlife. There are other channels for that. Im happy to see you move forward with setling into the new chapter of your life and the adventures to come mate.

Nov to mid march is where it's at in Pattaya, regards climate. Just lovely. Se how you go late march to may, when it's damn hot and a chore getting around, or doing much outside, other than the beach or pool.

Yes totally agree, freedom is going on the bikes in Thailand. Love fried morning glory since I first tried it in 1999. Still a favorite 🌺😀

It's been a while since I was last in Thailand but the exchange rate back then was 70 something baht to £1. So not far off double what it currently is

[@listey]

Totally agree with you about enjoying the freedom and not wearing protection. You have health insurance, so that'll fix you up if there are any issues.

[@keithhardy8513]

Having an accident on a motor-bike and NOT wearing a helmet would probably VOID any travel insurance policy. Some insurance providers may even deem riding a motor-bike a "dangerous or hazardous activity." and not pay out in the event of a claim.

[@listey]
