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. Chinatown.
  3. A pity the safety issues of real cigarettes were not considered earlier. Perhaps they warrant a ban!
  4. Otherwise the TV would need to be protected with a metal cage perhaps.
  5. On the Emirates website for example you see the options(Fare Class) available and if you hover over get a summary of the T/Cs and usually it lists the charges for changes.
  6. Barfly
  7. I have changed the date of my return flight quite a few times in Biz class, usually with tickets bought directly from the airlines with Middle East carriers. There is a hefty charge involved which is normally made clear at the time of booking, and depends on the class of the ticket. It can be 5000 baht, or a few hundred pounds. They also warn that there must be the same class of seat available on the flight you want to change to, else you could also be hit with an upgrade charge on top. (If the plane is pretty full you can be sure there will be no seats at the cheaper end available) It is swings and roundabouts whether paying higher class more flexible fare with say free/cheaper rescheduling will work out better, as they are substantially more expensive initially. I don't like the option of introducing an intermediary agent unless it is a shop with good personal realtions you have used for a while. I would certinly not recommend Expedia, they are dishonest and difficult to deal with, and the carrier insists you deal with them.

      No, I am finding it uncomfortable in the last day or two.

      Actually used a sweater!

       

  10. Blind Date
  11. Heavy rain I saw was around 8-10pm.
  12. 2005 to 2022 would be a long time, I guess you have had renewals between those years! Seventeen! Mine (current) says was issued in 2007 (but that was actually the old style previous one) and expires 2018. So that total validity is 5+5 years PLUS rounding it up to my next birthday. My previous licence (old style) was a 5 year one, but was again rounded up to my next birthday.....making it look like 6 years. I recall I renewed early as the new credit card style ones had been out a while and the dopey farang toy police kept arguing over my old style Thai licence insisting it was not a valid Thai licence.
  13. Some bloody heavy rain on Tuesday night North of town, bit scary on the motorway as I drove out to the sirport. Did it cause any problems.
  14. The Blue Lagoon.
  15. Freaked.
  16. No argument from me but you can certainly stick many areas around London too! Heathrow is an abysmal airport. Not much I can do about where I was born. Still have some relatives there but by next year I expect to be going much less.
  17. Bill and Teds Excellent Adventure
  18. Expedia now do not respond to emails other than the automated response. Looking around Facebook and the web it appears Expedia leave a lot of dissatisfied customers behind. I would say avoid them.
  19. Joe Pantoliano
  20. A few days rain...but not the old drown everything style of thunderstorms of a few years ago.

  21. Those Hoppa buses are awful. I recall trying to use them to get around Heathrow a few times. Overpriced, busy, slow, uncomfortable. Thank heaven Manchester now offers me plenty of flights.
  22. Tom Cruise
  23. (I'm) Spartacus.
  24. Nice and cool in a rainy spell.

  25. The Great Race.
