But you did pay for it! 800bht is cheaper than staying at the Nana. ???

Can't understand your logic Roland. Why would you not bother staying in a hotel that you've already paid for just because they have a joiner-fee? It would have cost you more than 800bht to stay at the Nana. Personally,I reckon the Bel-Aire is much nicer than the Nana,although I admit,not as convenient!

MBK is short for Mah Boon Krong,a big shopping centre in Bangkok.

Thanks for the feedback chaps. Looks as though Mike shopping mall is favourite !

My lads are footie mad! On my last visit I wanted to buy them the Thailand national team kit. Unfortunately,although the Beckham/Vierra shirts were on sale all over the place, I couldn't find what I was after. Please....... [smiley=help.gif]

Thanks Fatboy. Looks as though my honey will get some honey (and money,Crackpot!).

Thanks for that Sammy. Plenty of info there to keep me busy.

Does anyone know the rules on importing food into Thailand? I have a friend there who likes honey.I would like to take her some! Don't suppose I'll get any serious replies to this post!

Sorry. I appear to have posted the above in the wrong section. [smiley=wanker.gif]

Does anyone know how long a vaild Orange 'Just talk' pay-as-you-go SIM will stay operational without being used? I normally purchase a SIM card when I arrive in TH. However my mate is coming back to the UK at the end of December and he says I can have his SIM (with some credit left). I shall not be in TH until February,so will the SIM still be operational? This would be useful as I can let friends know what my number is before I leave the UK,thus saving me loads of money texting them with the number when I get there.! Does anyone know what I'm going on about? ??? Then again,do I want all his Thai laydeez phoning me when I'm there? Yes! [smiley=3some.gif]

My personal favourite is the fine replica of Blackpool Tower.

Thanks chris! I'VE JUST BEEN MADE A MEMBER! Chok dee [smiley=cheers.gif]

Just south of Manchester. Ring-pull Mecca!(Not far from the pedestrianised part of Deansgate! )

Here come the re-enforcements: [smiley=gasthrower.gif] [smiley=flamethrower.gif] [smiley=AR15firing.gif] [smiley=.gif]

They wouldn't let me join! I was told they don't allow joiners with hotmail/btinternet addresses etc. :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(

I bought an XLT last year.It cost me over 500 quid.All I've found with it is an old penny,a bullet and a dog tag that says 'lucky'. It's in a box in the loft now. Am I doing something wrong?

Isn't there a difference between kiln-dried and dry storage? By the way,my imported tooth-picks haven't split yet. ;D

and your spuds were rotten.

To be honest,I think most people that live on the mainland would say : 'YOU'RE WELCOME TO IT'

I remember someone telling me a story about Essex -girls and shopping trollies,but I can't remember it!

Oh yes,the joss-sticks are dead cheap there as well!

How about filling your suitcase full of toothpicks? The one's I bought there are made of bamboo and are nicely carved.They also came in a pleasant dispenser with a pink lid. 12Bht a pot of 200.(Tokyu dept store,BKK.Next to the joss-sticks). Perhaps you could sell them to your local restaurants. If you make your millions,remember me ;D

No-one living here in Manchester likes Utd either!
