  1. Hi, How about your own language college or another business ?
  2. Hi, Check your junk folder, sometimes stuff you think will go to your inbox goes there.
  3. Hi, That is Raylene(fucka, squirt) studying to be an accountant I believe.
  4. Hi, I think it is a matter of adjusting to living somewhere as against being on holiday. Nobody can live in holiday mode 24/7 and those that try end up brown bread.
  5. Hi, Hope for the financially challenged amonst us.
  6. Hi, Loy Krathong is in November which is a very nice festival and the weather is pleasantly warm without being oppressive. Great time to go.
  7. Hi, That post took off of it's own volition.
  8. Hi, I've flown with Bangkok Airways and the flight was excellent, nice new plane and cheaper than Thai. They have a website and you can book up to a few hours before travel. Phuket Airport is quite a way from the beaches, I had a driver waiting to collect me from the hotel I
  9. Hi, Agree to put money in account and think about it. I am the type of guy who will spend money if it is available so if you are like me if you find a nice condo to suit your needs why not buy it ? No more hotel bills and it is likely tp appreciate in value, and you may get in financial position to move full time at some stage. Otherwise you are likely to fritter the money away over time. That's if you are like me, but you may be like the Sage of Omaha and you will invest the money and have more money than you can spend in 10 lifetimes. Know yourself.
  10. Hi, Set the computer to boot from your D drive. When you start up, it will give you a message like "press Del or F8 whatever to enter setup " It will lists the drives and select D (cd drive) to boot from . Restart and put Operating System cd in drive and follow instructions from there. When you have completed that you have to install applications software(i.e. Windows XP etc.) and possibly drivers for printers, cameras etc. If you have played around with computers for 10 years you should have no problems. When you format you wipe the hard disk clean so remember to back up any info and documents you may need. Hard drives are inexpensive now so it might be worth your while buying a new one. Hope this helps some.
  11. Hi, I agree with boardies who think LOS is not a basket to put all your eggs in.
  12. Hi, I agree with donny on this one. I like to take the bus, met interesting people of all sorts on the bus. Also, if you are a newbie, it increases your knowledge of the country if you use BTS to get to Ekamaii and you are travelling like a local does. One time I took the Airport bus to Ekamai and then Pattaya bus to Pattaya which is a bit much after a long flight. If I was going directly to Pattaya I'd take a taxi but now like to stay in Bkk for a day or 2 and then take bus to Pattaya.
  13. Hi, I like a hard bed, it goes with my own equipment.
  14. Hi, If memory serves makavelli is attached and you are a monger. Think it is not really a mongers place.
  15. Hi, http://www.woodland-resort.com/ Baht bus no problem .
  16. Hi, Haven't stayed there but have met many couples who stayed there and have always got very good reports of the place. It seems a nice place as I've passed by it a few times.
  17. Hi, You are a sensible Scot, options are for gamblers.

    Fish

    Hi, Apart from the ladies the seafood is a big reason I love LOS. Had some great seafood meals there. Had a great meal in Patong first time I was in LOS, had 2 French guys with me and they loved it too and you know how hard they are to please when it comes to food. Tried to find the restaurant this time but couldn't, maybe it's long gone.
  19. Hi, Will be fine for me as I only bring a holdall. Seems a great plane, thanks for the photos.
  20. Hi, Maybe if you advertised a reward of 5K the bike might show up? Not a good situation when you hire a bike and are responsible if it is stolen. Seems a type of situation I would buy a second hand bike with little second hand value to a thief.
  21. Hi, jackcorbett makes a very strong case for buying and I think a condo is a purchase you can make without losing any sleep. It's one I would make if I could afford to move to LOS.
  22. Hi, Same,same. I love Thailand and the Thai's but I wouldn't put more than 10% of my assets there. The World is getting smaller everyday, why not invest somewhere with a solid legal and financial system ? A condo is OK but getting involved in complicated ways around the law in a country like LOS would not be for me.
  23. Hi, Shows how dodgy things can become in LOS, but the law is the law. Wonder is a clampdown on the way ?
  24. Hi, It seems to happen now and then, still can't understand why. If you go to another topic and try again it usually works. Maybe the hyperlink to it is broken or something.
  25. Hi, That seems good advice, but it's not easy taking it when you want to do things now.
