I'm in Bkk at the moment, and I have been surprised at the number of foreign visitors that seem to be around. I went to iconsiam earlier and it wasn't particularly busy or even worth visiting, compared to how it was when it opened, but the food place on the ground floor was heaving and I doubt many were Thais. This is the area that was a pretend floating market, but they seem to have given up on that, and was jam packed with food stalls.
The trains seem particularly busy with tourists.

Not in the UK, not sure about mainland Europe?

Re: Thailand tourism situation
^Next week in the bit of Europe where I work.
Yesterday we went down to Sam Roi Yot and had lunch at one of those seafood restaurants next to where you get the boats to the Phrya Nakhon cave and it was surprisingly busy with Western tourists.
I was expecting locals with the long weekend but not so many foreigners, I was there in May and there were none.
( Incidentally, the restaurant to the right by the crab sculpture is pretty good for a tourist spot and has it's own parking. )
