Displayed prices are for multiple nights. Check the site for price per night. I see hostels starting at 200b/day and hotels from 500b/day on agoda.

  2. And a friend of mine had to buy the immigration office somewhere in Nakhon Nowhere a filing cabinet!
  3. Thanks for all that, it has been an exercise of refreshing my old skills and figuring out the quirks of Windows. Unzipped them on a Win 7 PC, Played fine on Windows media player there, (I have some extra codecs in), subtitles and all. Moved some mkv across to the Win 10 pad.... played video and audio but no subtitles, again in media player. Tried moving some of the other (superfluous??) files over, like SRT, but that didn't help. Aha Kodi played them fine with subtitles, so that is what I will use. Looks like subtitles are embedded in the mkv file, learned by getting curious.! Old age, problems are to be circumvented not solved! Thanks... Yes, it looks good, well directed and sets a good mood.
  4. Well good luck, that is over peak season and I have friends who rent out for substantially more in VT 5 over that period.
  5. Well thanks for the Gomorrah link which I downloaded yesterday, looking forward to it. Rather absent-mindedly I downloaded it to my little Asus pad, and of course there isn't enough mrmory space on it to unzip it there! Then I got into a bit of Laurel and Hardy trying to figure out what to do next. Don't have any big enough thumb drives...been a while since I bought one! Tried external disc... needs a double USB power connection and my small pad only has one. So got fed up and had a beer. It took over an hour to download, so I expect transferring it over my wireless network to my laptop will be quite a wait... I shall try my other external disc first! Now of course I cannot play it from the laptop to TV as my lightening strike fried the HDMI port...... so I ask, when I unzip it on the laptop, are there separate files per episode that I can move around easily?
  6. Wasn't the whole SOE initiated by the taxi pulling out in front of him? Yes I agree, video driver exacerbated it all. Still, taxi driver was fined 400 baht so that will teach him!
  7. James Cromwell. (Opportunity for a good response here)
  8. I do seem to still have a signal when we have a local power cut.
  9. On a busy day they sometimes turn people away at 11, or sooner, and say come back after lunch. Anyhow, thanks for update, mine to do in a week or two, then the dreaded extension renewal soon after......
  10. Did well to get done before lunch break.
  11. Ha, perhaps when the roads are finished end of 2018! Actually where I live is near Hwy 36, so getting on Hwy 7 and to Swampy isn't so bad and likely no worse. Even UTapao isn't so bad as I can head up Hwy 36 to 331 and the new dual carriageway takes you straight there. (Nicknamed 'death alley' maybe not the safest way!). Nice to have alternatives.
  12. Well I believe CARFAX,, which you asked about, is for USA vehicles. This is a vehicle being sold in Thailand, so is the question relevant?

  14. Breezy weather heralds season change. Cool nights.

  15. 9 1/2 Weeks

  17. They charge you to get out!
  18. Looper
  19. Switch it off, the towers are down anyhow!
  20. The long goodbye is over....

  21. Unbreakable.
  22. And where did you perhaps hear this nugget from?
  23. Wonder if this will deter or incite people to knick them......
  24. Pulp Fiction
  25. From Dusk Till Dawn
