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.

vidman replied to Terry Lee's topic in Bars/Gogos/Business Owners' Forum
Terry lee, sorry to be picky: This sunday, last sunday....next sunday. A real date would be useful and will stop confusion. Im assuming Sunday 12th oct 08 cheers vid -
Keep us updated with how you get on. Im assuming that you can now buy copied games for a fraction of the price?

This is the old climax bar!

http://www.wmrecorder.com/index.php You have to pay a small charge for download but it does exactly what it says on the tin and will record everything that displays on your browser. (i.e live tv, youtube etc etc)

Can't get Adobe flash player to work on Firefox 3
vidman replied to dontcha's topic in Technical problems or questions.
I know exactly the problem youre having. It doesnt matter how many times you try to install flash after firefox has thrown an error.....it just refuses to acknowledge that you have installed it!!!!! Strangely it doesnt apply to every flash web site (only certain ones).....computers dont ya luv em!!!!!! -
does anyone know how to transfer
vidman replied to farangatang's topic in Technical problems or questions.
If you want to do it yourself then you have to run the footage into your computer in order to digitise it into a dvd file. OK now you need to realise that a vhs is an analogue signal and needs converted. How you do this is up to you. There are various "dazzle" type boxes that connect to your computer and transfer the signal from the vhs player into an "mpeg" file into your computer. Once in your computer you can use a "dvd authoring" (e.g. nero,win movie maker, ulead workshop or the "daddy" adobe encore) software to encode a dvd. This has the benefit of having chapter points etc so you -
Unfortunately the whole of pattaya is a bug trap. Most of the time its an ant problem rather than roaches and the only thing that works is to be relentless in spraying. After a few weeks they are all gone (or have just moved to somewhere that aint sprayed. As the above said it seems like the room has been empty and aint been sprayed for a while.

climax band/ bar has long gone now from walking st although i believe they are now in the "dj" bar just behind we are the world/centerpoint 7/8. re:lucifers: the band at the front section of lucifers does normal pop/rock stuff whilst the disco rear section is indeed american hiphop/rap. They are still a bonafide band tho and the OP didnt specify the music style!

The piano guy in the pattaya park tower restuarant does some "rat pack" style stuff. oh and a few more i forgot about: honey-pot bar soi2 bristol bar jomtien (soi 6 or 7 forget) The seafood restuarant past soho sq on WS (plays russian music???) The bar next door to leo blues bar naklua soi 18 The small beer complex in the soi that links soi7 with soi8 (at olala restuarant at 2nd rd end) At bottom of soi2 on beach rd there is a "metal framed type" restuarant (michelle from poppys bar now sings there) The bar right across from blues factory also have a band

Another point is that tycoon will store your accumulated items free of charge providing you re-book within 12months. So you can buy your kettle, motorbike helmet etc etc and just store them!

If you do a search for this subject then you will see a post i made listing around 30 venues with live bands! vid

Ok you have lots of free disk space. Make sure windows is automatically controlling virtual memory (i.e there is not a manual amount typed in) still defrag your drive to make sure your free space is not dotted around like a teabag. Ctrl Alt Delete will bring up your task manager which will show your cpu usage and list of all your programs running. Shut down some of the ones using the most memory allocation. Check to see if anything is accessing your internet connection even thou you have no visible programs being used. i.e simply look at your modem send/receive lights. Tis wil

I agree, it sounds like a virtual memory problem and there simply aint enough free hard disk space for windows to run a cache. Check your disk space available (c: drive where windows is installed) Once youve freed up enough space then do the disk defrag (use "diskkeeper" prog and not windows standard)

My mate just emailed me to book a room for him in tycoon. Apparently they never answer emails at all and its difficult to get booked up (hence getting me to go in direct). He has stayed there several times before and swears by it. He normally tries to get the corner room as its more spacious with the extra window. Make no mistake tho the standard rooms are tiny. I would hate to do a few months stay in that size. 1 good point is that they have introduced a secure keycard system to access the lift/all floors. So i guess this will keep undesirables from wandering in unchallenged. The

To say they are hindering Tourists cannot be done(see above) however you may have some sites restricted. TOT (the actual telephone company albeit state owned) did, until recently block you tube etc. Before it was politically motivated as someone posted a critical Thai video, however that was sorted out and now they just ban because they say its eating up the TOT bandwidth! FAO they unblocked you tube last month.

Whilst doing my usual crawl around funtown, i had a great time last night in Coyotees! This has always been a good joint in the past but now it gets better with a Happy Hour starting at 1am! Thats correct 1am. Never seen a happy hour start then, but i like it! Most drinks are 60baht and the shows are still entertaining as is the music. The owner must have installed a myriad of laser machines as it looked like the beijing olympics opening ceremony last night.....excellent! Oh and the girls are lookers too! Its a good combination and i thought id share my findings to the boa

RightSaid's Big Five-0 Birthday Party
vidman replied to rightsaid's topic in Bars/Gogos/Business Owners' Forum
1 question about TQ2: A while back they served their draught beer in really nice english style half pint glasses (quite large) but last week they were using those stupid tiny glasses (famously used by peppermint agogo draught beer)!!! What happened???????? -
Pattaya Beer Garden Update – 8 August 2008
vidman replied to PattayaPete's topic in Bars/Gogos/Business Owners' Forum
I tried to start a post a while back, wanting to list as many ST joints as we could. The upshot was a very very empty post. The 100baht place all the girls talk about is PS house in soi yamoto.......and to say its a dive is an understatement. You really do get what you pay for. Out of interest i see that the swiss house in soi diamond are now advertising st rooms at 300baht. vid -
3 years ago i got nabbed by emirates for having a return ticket dated well past my visa. i explained about going to singapore etc but they had a major debate about letting me fly. Eventually some supervisor got me to sign about 3 disclaimers and let me board.....so nothing is impossible!!!

current info on dolphins at sanctuary of truth
vidman replied to devalover's topic in General Discussion about Pattaya
Some new place down past Rayong (maybe 30mins past) opened now for the dolphin swimming experience! Before you rush and book tho, here is 1 incident that came to light a few weeks ago. A female falang friend of mine (who has had a stroke a few years back) had a booking with this place . Everything was explained to the agent who did the booking and it was supposidly OK. Whilst my friend has limited use of one side of her body, she can easily swim 30 lengths in the pool every day (so she is a competent swimmer). It had been her dream to swim with the dolphins as she knew they are used -
Looking at this place from beach rd, it seems they have 2 buildings. 1 large block at the rear and a new smaller block which is sits 90degrees from the beach front. The front block looks newer and superior view i guess..so this would be the one to go for. The actual front of hotel is taken up by their restuarant (which looks nice but is usual over-priced thai cuisine)

Never stayed but they are a fair distance from walking st. (being situated up the pratumnak hill soi 4 area). They also have a few annexes i.e argyle 1,2,3 etc (all around the same area).
