And here I was thinking that it was my computer that had a problem. Thanks for your work frostfire.

When I was in the Navy, and on the other side of the world at sea, sometimes when we received a newspaper from home that might have been a month old, it was like Christmas to us. I like the idea.

A bit more language lunacy: Weird English.doc

Another few points to assist some:

'i' before 'e' except after tea. 1. Avoid alliteration. Always. 2. Prepositions are not words to end sentences with. 3. Avoid cliches like the plague. (They're old hat.) 4. Employ the vernacular. 5. Eschew ampersands & abbreviations, etc. 6. Parenthetical remarks (however relevant) are unnecessary. 7. It is wrong to ever split an infinitive. 8. Contractions aren't necessary. 9. Foreign words and phrases are not apropos. 10. One should never generalise. 11. Eliminate quotations. As Ralph Waldo Emerson once said: ``I hate quotations. Tell me what you know.''

Thanks (once again). I felt sure you would've said something about the couple in the matching tartan shorts near the roast pig remains....

It's a shame. I haven't been there and was looking forward to a visit next April (with my Thai missus) but wonder if it will still exist. I guess TIT....

Nice play on words there Jacko. 'rocquet'/ 'rocket'. Well done!

AAWW, that's spoilt it for me

I've never paid for one. I have had my feet massaged by fish plenty of times though, but for free, up in Kanchanaburi at Erawan Falls. Plenty of fish at each level of the falls that just can't wait for your to put your feet in.

Maybe End of Financial Year, and P4P prices will rise....

But with the loss of Saudi Arabia, Iran and a few others, England are about the only Muslim country left in the draw....

That burger is about the right size for me - looks great! Thanks.

I reckon he has found one by now....Or perhaps he died from the injuries.

So fucking sad! Sorry for the non-pity, but that is life. Atlas, you did say, "Only read this if you're already thoroughly bored", and I respect that, but it did start a rash off everybody's else's problems. The only reason for my post is that I have problems too, but I sort them myself, hopeefully.... However, I do acknowledge your problems as being those (usually) related to those we have to face in Thailand. And I do acknowledge that (probably) the other reported problems are just related to what we face in Thailand, I guess my rant is invalid. Bugger! Mai Pen Rai.

Teelak, if you are looking for a hotel not far from the beach, close to the nightlife, and close to Farang food outlets and bars etc., then try Jed Pee Nong Hotel. Pretty good rooms, good pool etc. Google it and have a look. I love the seafood in Huan Hin, and the night market seafood restaurants are great value, while the seafood restaurants down by the water (on the jetties) is good, but more expensive.

That guy wa probably Indian and using horse or goat shit as a flavour. Just sayin'.

It'd make an impressive door stop....

If you are carrying THAT much luggage (as a single traveller) I guess a smaller car with a gas tank in the boot/trunk might not cut not for you. I travel much lighter, carrying my oldest clothing, that I soon replace with new stuff, and dispose of the old for the trip home.... And please don't call me a 'know all', as I am sure I have been wrong sometime before. I think Nam's site is well put together, and an email to her would sort out your worries about the size of the car, without you immediately thinking that taxi drivers are 'retarded', and including her in that statement.

Couldn't you just Google SUV. A Sports Utility Vehicle, like a 4WD, but smaller and more like a station sedan. If travelling alone, you don't need it....

I'll be in LOS, but will be attending ANZAC Day services. Bugger!

Shit, I missed that too. I guess that Nam's Taxi is a bit expensive for that trip too. Only 300 - 350 for a standard taxi....

There is a link on here somewhere, but try Nam's Lady Taxi, Pattaya. Very efficient, safe and nice ladies: http://www.namstaxipattaya.com
