  1. Wow...... potentially one could pay a lot of APD on a ticket if you changed in London and Dubai to go on to Bangkok.I am blaming this on the Labour ex-Governmemt......
  2. Price?
  3. Starring Samsonite.......
  4. Yes he will.... 'avoid the B150 transaction charge that the bank's ATM machine would assess?.'If you have foreign cash to exchange, well that wasn't the question. I believe the rate will be the same too....... Downside, it takes a bit longer and you may be asked for ID.
  5. I buy mine at the supermarket..... it is pretty cheap.But it is for the pernickety visitors ... generally I buy the big opaque white bottles and have a cooler. Ice is made from it and I frequently grab a cold glass, and don't have any problems. I suppose in a bar or another place you can't be sure where they get their water from and you could be subjected to tap water by a cheap bar. I have recently changed my water supplier as the old one appeared not to have basic cleaning procedures. Bottles had mold in them and there were floaters in the water. Quite surprised that people feel they need to brush their teeth with bottled water and shower with a bulldog clip on their lips and cork up their ass. I wonder if they swim in a pool or the sea in Pattaya. Far riskier goings on in Pattaya than dirty water infections......
  6. Be glad when the rainy season is over and this nut can get back to his relatively sane preoccupation of riding about town decked out in tinsel!
  7. There is a film of this with Beau Bridges in it? I thought it was an animation!
  8. A lot of people living a miserable existence down by the railway line bypass. Why anybody would build homes 2/3 foot below the level of the road one has to wonder. Probably quite a shock to be awoken with water lapping about your feet. But ever inventive, the nets were out looking for fish in the flooded area between the 2 lanes.
  9. Then their book with maps isn't telling them the complete story.....
  10. Shit, the chief is back.........To be honest, I feel far more at risk on Sukhumvit and other major roads on the scooter. Night riding is to be avoided.
  11. That is the WORST most dangerour advice I have read in a long time. Thais are pretty dopey about getting moving after the lights have turned green. Mainly because the guys coming the other way are still accelerating to jump the recently turned red. Lights change to green..... count to 5...look.
  12. I was able to look up the terms of my booking and rescheduling options quite easily with Ethiad. In fact I changed the return flight for free. There is a click point 'What's The Difference Between The Fares' which brings up a new window detailing this.
  13. More the point is that wherever you are giving blood will not bother getting a map out.
  14. Beau Bridges
  15. I guess it varies depending on your plan and any bolt-ons. But I agree that an SMS normally costs me more than 1.07 baht!I like the idea that I could send an SMS to someone in LOS while I am in the UK on t'internet. Presuming the networks don't gouge me for sending on the one-time-password.
  16. Starman
  17. Lee Majors...
  18. Here you go......
  19. Jennifer Love-Hewitt
  20. I suppose as the availability goes down the price goes up. If you booked them separately the second one would be more expensive. I don't expect a validity of 8 months is the cheapest.
  21. You are still doing that????????Shit... I thought you were BigD with the Avatar... carry on!
  22. They used to just charge 100-200 baht for the service.Generally you just phone the local office of the airline yourself, and ask for English, and do it yourself, but having a charge to pay makes that harder.
  23. Ryan Phillipe
  24. Dan Aykroyd
  25. Tourettes and tourniquet.
