  1. I moved over to Firefox recently and found the same. However, there's an add-on called "IE Tab" that makes Firefox use the IE engine for a particular tab. That sorts the problem and I haven't needed IE since I found it.
  2. When I stayed there in November I had one of their monthly deals - had to pay the full amount up front + 10,000 Baht deposit. They took whatever spending I did there, water & electricity (not included on monthly deals) + my taxis to and from the airport from the deposit and I got the balance back when I checked out. I wasn’t too keen on paying all that up front, but it was all handled professionally, all computer recorded & itemised, and no arguments about anything. I couldn’t have wished for better. Didn’t seem like Thailand at all.
  3. I've been seeing it slow for months now. I've tried IE, Opera & Firefox, PC & laptop. Still slow. Seems to speed up a bit after 21:00 GMT, so it may be something to do with my ISP's links to the US - where I believe the server lives.
  4. I was there for all of November, my room faced Soi Bukhaow, I didn't notice any noise.
  5. Not that I know of. You could go from the other end though; take their number with you, buy a sim card at the Airport and YOU can call THEM if there's a problem.
  6. Useful site, thanks. For me; and to Thailand; So, slower to Thailand, but not critical. However, to this forum, I'm down to low dial up speeds.
  7. I'm in the UK and over the last week it's been really slow - so much so that I'm avoiding threads with pics. It only seems to be this board, I've got normal speed on other ones like ThaiVisa and non-Thai sites. Also, the webcam runs fine. I've tried it on my PC and laptop (same connection), same result It it only me? I'm on broadband BTW. Any ideas anyone.
  8. No one's said thanks for this months yet, so I'll do it. Thanks. I look forward to these each month, how you get your ideas from these photo's is beyond me. Your head must be a strange place to live.
  9. Checked EVAs website today. Out Oct 23, back Nov 22 (dates I'm looking at) £542. Not bad for direct. Now, if I just knew what the pound was going to do, and inflation, and my employment........... the lottery numbers would be nice too.
  10. Use jacko's link, drag the image so that you're looking towards the beach, go down 7 blue dots and turn the image left again.
  11. Adaware is still free as far as I know. I've got the latest version and it's definitely free.
  12. Got to agree there, I could bend her over that pool table in a second.
  13. Went in yesterday, ordered a beer and asked for the menu, waitress told me "one hour cooking". Apparently the chef was ill. Fair enough, I chose to leave but I've absolutely no problem with that - almost all venues over here would just have taken the order and had me sitting fuming. IMO telling me up front was the right thing to do. Had I been in company I would have stayed, but an hour on my own wasn't what I had in mind. Note to any Thai owners reading; honesty works, I'll be back with no hesitation. The normal Thai "ignore a problem and leave the customer in the dark" approa
  14. I'll be on hammers bar crawl tonight, but will drop in after if I can still mumble Cattttzzzz to a taxi driver.
  15. I had a problem there yesterday. I only went in for a meal, but couldn't get my arse off of the seat for about 3 hours. It was a really mellow way to start the afternoon; cool breeze, quiet recognizable music, good food, cheap beer. Worked for me. Nice. I looked around at one point and the place looked empty, then I started counting fallangs. 30 Where else in town would 30 customers make the place look empty? For that matter, where else would have 30 paying customers (I'm not counting TGs) at 4 in the afternoon? I will be back in later on today. This place is shaping up t
  16. Thanks for the numbers, I've happily had 1155 on my speed dial for years now. Never had to use it but it was good to know it was there. Just as well I didn't need it if it's gone.
  17. A class course (once we found it ) and a fun event. Thanks all. Ended up spending 5 hours in Babydolls, can't remember the last time I spent 5 hours in one gogo (without falling asleep ). A fun night. Cheap Chang!
  18. Some players started the day in better shape than others.
  19. All you can eat for 499 while I'm in town. You could regret that.
  20. Hmmm, on the same night as the after golf-party for a bar with a similar name not too far away. I see confusion here.
  21. Have you got any with breasts? There's not a decent handful there if you added them all up.
