Try Kasikorn - very friendly.

Call you bank in America - tell them you will fax your id and instructions for a bank wire. They'll do it, you just aren't speaking to the right person. Better to call the branch manager where you bank - the one that knows you and get their fax number. I do it all the time.

Just got an update on her driving instructor, it would seem that she can't drive straight means she can't keep the car properly between the lines. The guy is a stickler for her driving within the lines. Go fancy that - no one drives within the lines and she has one that wants her to do it 100 percent. He won't accept 90 percent of the time.

You are 100 percent correct. Learning here is a joke. I'm not convinced that my wife's driving instructor is a total wanker though, but I haven't seen her drive. She has now used up 8 hours, can't drive straight yet, can turn left and right, shift through all 5 gears and park by pulling into the spot in forward. When she is on the roads, driving at hour 14 I will go with her for a lesson. I do believe, that the majority of the Thai people suffer from some form of mental disorder. I like to call them Stepford people after the movie Stepford Wives of the 70's. They seem to do ev

I drove that road a few months ago to get the boy his passport - bloody hell it's a bad highway with more on and off's - a detour from hell. The entire road is a bloody detour.

Off we go. She has no license, not even a moto license. My insurance will not cover her until she has a license from somewhere, even Zimbabwe. So I told her to take 20 hours, or 30 - I want her to drive to Bangkok and back with the guy - if she can make that trip - she can drive anything. Note: She has 6 hours and has so far only used 2nd and 3rd gears and knows how to make turns. It's going slow, but better she drive their truck than ours.

My wife is taking a driving lesson from this one as I write this. 3000 baht for 10 hours and she says additional 6 hours is 1000 baht. She's driving a new Isusu Dmax - 4 door which she says is nicer than our Tijuana Taxi. I heard bad things about the one on Klang and the other other one I never heard of. She likes the driving instructor at this one - ex govt truck driver.

This is a trick found in almost every store with the exception of Foodland. It just wouldn't happen there. I see the squad of workers go out at Midnight scouring the shelves for anything out of date. And to the poster who thinks the meat is better at Big C - I buy nothing except for Foodland meats and poultry. My wifes friend fixes the meat slicers all over Thailand, Cambodia and Laos and he knows which ones are clean. Stick with Foodland.

That's right, I have both TOT and TTT lines. I have ADSL on both. In the beginning I had business dsl from TOT - it was good up until the beginning of this year when I changed TTT to business and downgraded TOT. TOT still sucks but I use it as a backup. As soon as Hutch brings EV-DO and I can find an EVDO phone- I'll use it as a modem and drop my TOT connection.

That is why it is imperative to have 2 DSL connections. One of which should be TT&T Business for 3400 a month.

Idiot - ask the board moderator where this post is from? It will show as Herndon VA, as will my email sent. I'm in Thailand. I land new clients all the time and they never know I'm in Thailand. Open the right orifice next time - I don't think you used your mouth.

I will pay 49,000 baht for 1 year worldwide cover (minus USA) up to 80 million baht. I am older than 45. I am getting surgery soon resulting from an accident with my dog and my insurance company has agreed to pay BPH 100 percent. Now I know I have good insurance. 1 million baht of cover is only $30k and for a lifetime benefit, this is easily used up.

The regular bus leaves the filling station on the East side of Sukhumvit near Pattaya Klang direct to Nong Khai every night at 6:00 600 baht. No changes - direct. buy your ticket at the window.
