I got a lot of valuable advices, thank you all for those. Just have a one basic guestion: are authorities (in Britain) obliged to contact widowed person or is it vice versa. And how they have to proof they have tried to contact if they have tried but have not been able to locate or reach the widowed person . Cheers jb

The marriage was registered both in Britain and in Thailand. Husbands lives close to London, so most likely he was from England and he had children from previous marriage. No will has been made. Thank you a lot in advance for your time! Cheers jb

Hello, a friend of my gf widowed after a very short marriage. She had a British husband and they marriage lasted only a couple of months until the husband died. What are her legal rights? I promised to help her and I have no idea about the British system and if she is entitled to a husbands employee pension as is the case in Finland. Who might help, does she need a lawyer, does British embassy help. Only information she got was the letter from Britain that her husband past away. Any good links would be good too. Cheers jb

I know - this is kind of off-topic but indirectly related to Pattaya. I suppose there are several people who has built or helped a girl to build a house somewhere no-where Issan area. I am one of those too The house is located (well, it is not completely ready) very close, about 20km, to Buriram. It has been a very interesting time but no major surprises. Would like to hear your experiences as well, and if you recognize Huai Rach then you know where the house is situated. Even better if you are living nearby, feel free to contact and PM. I will be there starting from 25th of Sep. Currently I am living in China but visit there every now and then. Cheers jb

Dear fellow mongers, coming to Pattaya for very short notice and haven't booked a room. Where could I get one for 4 days starting at 23rd Nov. Do you happen to know any decent hotel I could confirm a booking just by a telephone call. Thank you all in advance... Cheers jb

Hi there, will be for the very first time in Pattaya - lets see if I can enjoy staying there :) Anyway have planned to have a week visit there before heading to Cambodia... But I have no idea about the hotel - please help me choosing it with the following criterias matched: - close to walking st - in room safe - price range max 30euro - is it 1.500 baht - and the one girls would like too :) I am sure this issue has covered several times already but also I know there a group of people who already know the answer/answers...
