No coffee... Good idea, the stuff keeps you awake!

I wouldn't say that, I asked the TGF yesterday and she said nobody at her school was ill.You have to wonder it it is being passed between monger-girl-monger-girl. Might be healthier to put that condom over her head.

You might be more perceptive if you read the thread, nobody is 'sure' but how it might have been done has been discussed.

Probably not an extractor unless that is an outside wall, just a filter and lights. I am guessing the cable is from power sockets behind the hob to feed the fan, and it is sad that it wasn't buried into the wall in a conduit and plastered over. But in Thai buildings, it is the wiring you cannot see you should be scared of!

Yes I had heard that there is a good bit of that around, All the rain I suppose. All of you get well soon.

Water shortage, there was 2 foot of it in the streets yesterday!

I say bide your time. Rent for a year, there are a lot of condos available for reasonable rents, houses too, but buying new I think they are overpriced. Firstly have you decided where to live? Pattaya for example, central or outskirts, up-country maybe? The place is changing so fast you may find you would rather be some-place else. Many Expats seem to settle over on the dark-side, preferring the space of a house to the proximity of the night-life. A condo is really a little box where you are confined, a relaxing drink being perched precariously 100 feet up in the air, with a nice sea-view and sunset at night...maybe. Four years is still a while off, and as you have been spending a lot of time in cramped quarters I wonder whether a studio would suit, hell hang an old brass porthole on the wall and run the taps and you are back at work!

Being a sufferer of a damned neighbour's dog, I am not sure an air-horn would improve my sleep patterns much.

That would all quieten down when Scotland gets it's independence!

I think sometimes when I ask for 'pan baht' they tap the buttons and 1000 is shown up there.You were very attentive to spot this.

No, there is a mail service and places do have addresses.If you have never seen a mailbox in Pattaya I am thinking you need to look around a bit more, and as to mailmen... well they are out and about before you perhaps.

I am still a bit confused how the guy got the machine to display 1330 in the first place, unless he just typed it in? I don't know how these darned things work. When I was in Saudi, we were warned off some gas stations as they had the trick of not zeroing the machine between fills. I don't use my debit cards when buying gas, but that would not make any difference here, as you say we have to keep our eyes open as to the pump displaying a normal baht and litre amount when paying up and a zero before. Darned, bad enough watching for the padding at night-time, can't even let our guard down when daydreaming as the car is filled.

Hmmm, we called them scraps, and I am from NW UK. Scratchings are the salty pig-skin snacks aren't they?

Howard Miller might be good in this position!

24hr......Made in Heaven. (oh shit, fucked up..... it was pm. not am), can we just let it ride....?
