There's a lot to this moderation lark

When they've manufactured enough silicone.

It is shown as having been penned by "Night Walker" - someone who doesn't know that when using an "s" to form a plural, it is not necessary to use an apostrophe!

Now sorted. Bad connection (but strangely good enough to get to this site!)

No luck doing that either!

I've uninstalled AVG but it is just the same It must have been co-incidence.

How much did it cost you?

Thanks, Frosty.

I'm not sure whether it is co-incidence, but ever since I received an AVG update an hour or so ago, Pattayatalk is the only web-site I can access. As much as I enjoy reading the Forum, access to email is rather more important to me, and I don't have that at the moment. I've tried accessing about 15 of my favourites, some in the UK and some not, and this site is the only one I can get into. For all the others, I get told: "DNS error occurred. Server cannot be found". Any suggestions, please?

That's one reason I like Thai food - no chance of it being infected with the stuff.

It is in Beach Road Soi 1, not Soi 2.

The Jasmine Hotel in Soi BJ off Walking St is relatively inexpensive, has safety deposit boxes at reception, and (at least some if not all) rooms have cooking facilities (except you seem to have to provide your own pots and pans). http://www.jasminehotel-pattaya.com/booking/rezeasy.html

It turned out that Beach Road was closed completely last evening from Central Road down to Walking Street. I saw a bit of the fashion show and felt sorry for some of the models who had to walk around 2,000 metres. The ladies in narrow evening dresses would not have enjoyed the long walk; the ladies and (particularly) guys in swimwear had to endure lots of light-hearted cheering, particularly around Soi 8, and must have been glad to see the finishing line .

A catwalk is currently being erected along Beach Road to try to break a Guinness record. It is on the beach side but looks wide enough to bring the traffic down to just one lane.

Don't forget that you will have UK tax taken from the annual pension. If you have no other income, it will be in the region of £1,300.

When I bought mine, I paid all the attention to the picture. I am pleased with the pic on my choice - a Panasonic 32" LCD. However, I'm far less happy with the sound. A mate has a Panasonic 37" Plasma (maybe the same model as BigD) and both the picture and sound are excellent.

That is my plan. Hopefully, my condo purchase will be completed shortly. It is only small but is in a quiet spot by the temple and just off Second Road - a few minutes walk to most places I need to get to. That's important as I don't intend to drive. I'm hoping to spend mid October to mid Feb in Patts. I'm not expecting it to be easy. I will lose the support system of family and long-standing friends in the UK, and know very few people in Patts. I don't speak any Thai and get very pissed off by things not happening as they should do, so I know I need to change my approach to life if

Thanks for that.

I am a computer illiterate so could someone please tell me if a message, at the bottom left corner of the page reached by going to the above link, which says: transferring data from live.smiledj.net is suspicious. The message does not go away.

Just as with your anti-Obama rants, you are confused and mistaken. I HAVE stayed at PBR and would not stay there again because of the noise - thin walls, reverberating corridors and (for the room I was in) the gym immediately above. I HAVE NEVER been to AC. I did go to PI many years ago and have no wish to go back there either.

There are so many posts on the boards about PBR that I am beginning to suspect that the owner (? Kim) instigates them just to keep up the hotel's profile. The number of posts is totally disproportionate - I don't think any other hotel gets mentioned to anything like the extent that PBR does. If you are genuinely asking this question, just use the search function for the info you need.

Protest leaders have given the government until Monday to call fresh elections. Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva say he will not resign. About 40,000 troops and police have been deployed. The "red shirt" demonstrators are mainly supporters of former Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra, who was ousted in a military coup in 2006. Many of the protesters have come to the capital from Mr Thaksin's power base in t

I don't think this works with Windows 7.
