  7. It would be nice if you came back here and posted how things were going after you have settled in.
  8. Angel Heart
  9. I don't park my bike on Beach Rd very much..... if ever it has 'gone' I cannot be sure if it was stolen, moved by the M/C taxi guys from 'their turf', moved by the motorcycle renters from 'their turf', or the police have removed it!

  13. So you take your home SIM out of a smart phone and put it into a cheap one for the duration of your time in LOS. I have often wondered if your SIM was assigned to 3G, and your plan was a 3G plan, and then you put it into a 2G cheapo phone, whether it would work OK.
  14. Qantas are a bit of a special case at the moment. There always was something of that in the Frequent Flier world. Cheaper Economy attracted reduce miles. Biz Class gave you a 50% bonus etc etc. These mileage accounts seem to be more useful these days. I could never get free tickets with them in the past, no availability. So many of my miles expired,now I find I can use them to buy useless crap from their shop or enter a raffle! I wonder if the airlines account for them as a deficit on their books. Anybody able to comment on this summer's expected demand.......?
  15. Were you on your bike? I was wondering about parking as obviously Beach Rd is never easy. Any spots provided by the business?
  16. Grumpy Old Men
  17. Likely London due to the higher level of competition. Also the only airport offering non-stop flights. A quick check for June showed £467 using KLM from Manchester And £452 from LHR using China Southern. Stockton is a fair way from London but a train to Manchester is easy. You could go from Newcastle.....(ay-up bonny lad) for £466, again KLM via Amsterdam.
  18. Well OP, I do hope the current strikes and dispute are well over by then.
  19. Plenty of hot air here!

  20. I stopped in front of the place yesterday. It was like a building site! I presumed the work going on was part of the business and from what I can see it will have a large frontage on the Beach Rd. I think it will pull in the tourists as it appeared well up market from your standard soi Honey Inn MP with solitary malfunctioning shower that has you feeling nervous as you stand in a few cm of water that doesn't appear to be draining away. I will pop back again if I have time before the infants start throwing water around!
  21. Gone With The Wind.
  22. My cat refuses to comply so I have to stick with the cheaper stuff.
  23. Just out of reach! Gotta love builders with a SOH!
  24. Yes I asked at one place. You can barfine a girl out of the MP for the day for 300 baht. That is the same as an hours oily.
  25. Did you take a look down soi 15?
