if you tell us where about you are thinking of building then a good local builder could do a good job for you at a fraction of the cost,....for instance I had a house built by "a friend of a friend" which was ok for 4k sterling I thought,at the time but later on I realised the builder was not a quality builder and I could have had a better house built for the same money by a different guy.In chaiyaphum my wifes friend has been working for the local big builder of quality housing but he can doo everything himself and he is not taking big percentages. although personally I think as its a house for the family give them the money as if it is a house for a farang you could at least double the price. whatever way you pay!

Does anyone know a name of a reliable company, where actually do I start,....of course I could ask the catering manufacturer but a smaller less expensive catering equip manufacturer don't do this.

where abouts in Isaan? I got a cheap house built some 15 years ago for my wife and I to live, I spent 4k for everything lived there for a few years but now basically the family live there,as I bought a house in U.K and gave up trying to stop them doing what they like to the house,and keeping it clean.etc...I might now look for condo nearer to farang area but not too close..a friend of a friend built it probably cost less than half the amount I paid back then but realise now it was "sin sod" although I was not aware of that at the time.

I usually bring any bits and pieces I need back on the airplane with me,..but if I wanted to bring a larger item back from Thailand what is the cheapest way of doing this?...I'm thinking of catering equipment for instance as the savings are immense compared to U.K....Anyone done this?

OHHH DEAR ,FANTASTIC ...CAN'T STOP HA HA HOO BOO HOO LAUGHING.......OOOOOOOOHAA HA!!11........SO BELIEVEABLE.....GREAT POST!!!
