I might have done! I get these SMS messages in Thai that I just delete!

Yes it does work, thanks a lot. I took a look in Youtube myself but couldn't find episode 2. I had moved my laptop, got my headphones on and hit play last night only to be disappointed. Rather than watch some silly soap with her I had an early night. They must be very selective about when they film.....normally I see more queues, the VAT refund kiosk is one that springs to mind.

I get the message...... This video has been removed by the user

But I doubt 'eat less' would get Hillary elected! Although she might suggest it to Mike!

Todays rate seems to be about 2 roubles/baht. So I guess your numbers above are actually 48 baht/100 roubles? It was parity about a year ago.

When Microsoft managed to block my naughty copy I actually just went out and bought the 'Home and Student' Version here in Thailand. Useful when someone forwards me a power point presentation... Years ago I did use Open Office for a spell but I was unhappy with the spreadsheet package.

I was following a big Chevy back to the City from Wafra and a kid fell out of the window onto the road! And I recall Pakistanis on foot were always trying to get across the Highway near Mangaf and getting hit.

Yes good one. When I was there I didn't even try to drive, we were given a driver. He was bloody terrible and killed or maimed 3 dogs!

Edward Scissorhands Well Ndugu, I'll close now. You probably can't wait to run and cash this check and get yourself something to eat.

I found Riyadh in KSA pretty bad, some very aggressive driving there. Caracas always sticks in my mind too. Manila...... slow slow and painful. I drove a lot in Kuwait, easy peasy! But my did I see some horrific accidents (excessive speed, powerful vehicles) Surprising what you can get used to. Lots of places worse than Thailand..... although there are astounding examples of stupidity occurring regularly to keep you alert.

You would likely go register at an AIS/DTAC or True service counter in the Mall. I have found some pretty good English speakers there. Can't imagine a little 7-11 on the dark side handling it. I registered my AIS number with my old expired passport and have never updated it. In fact I had an epiphany a few months back when I had logged onto their website and entered my old PP number where it was asking for my National ID card number and was able to access more services.

Al Pacino in Devil's Advocate. What are you doin' here? You oughta be out in a convertible bird-doggin' chicks and bangin' beaver.

Stickman posted our extensions may well cost us 3000 baht next year!

Possibly by sneaking bottles out of the door.

Inception

Animal House. You pompous, stuck-up, snot-nosed, English, giant, twerp, scumbag, fuck-face, dickhead, asshole.

You do not know shit, let managers speak. I modified my post slightly to make it clearer nevertheless. I have sat there as a friend argued with a manager as to whether he was serving what was ordered.

After 5+ years of frustration dealing with TOT I moved my lazy ass and cancelled them. True were offering the best deal at the time, plus I have to justify the ugly cable they ran over my garden. I still have Sophon, my True Vision actually came free (basic crappy package of channels) with the internet, and I never watch it. They also gave me a post-pay SIM with some free monthly calls....... obviously trying to hook me into them. I don't miss TV much.

Too many games being played with mixed drinks...... from small measures, to poor quality well drinks being substituted for what you ordered, watered down drinks and charging separately for the mixers. A tough job for good management to keep an eye on.

Mine are all registered, as you say there was a drive around 2005 when I did this with AIS. My True SIM was registered when I changed the Intersim to True-H. You should download the True App, it is useful for me as I have their Internet, TV and SIM and can pay the bill all in one go. I can see the phone credit available quickly too.

Why have you left True out of the picture? Anyhow I uses 12Call but only on GSM and do fine. Since you seem to be either in Jomtiem or Walking St, I thought signal would not be a problem.

Thanks for posting that Shilo, allowed me to see it here in Thailand. I quite enjoyed it. It showed the Thai staff at Swampy in a very good light, and deservedly so. Their inherent good nature and cheerfulness very apparent. Sadly not the British....... who seemed to be incapable of getting their act together or accepting the responsibility for their own failings. An Americanism seems to fit.... dumb Bimbos!
