Cheap Accomodation 7000baht/14000baht monthly?

Thanks torrenova Found this re: Yensabai condos http://www.yensabaipattaya.com/aboutus.html#pricing The ones at 7200/7900baht looks acceptable - at that price one can bugger off exploring other areas of LOS and not worry about wasted rent! -
Well after shelling out a grand total of £950 to my Dermatoligist I'm feeling a little more optimistic of making it in June...........hopefully I've turned the corner ...........but I've decided the dosh must come out of my holiday budget, therefore, if I do make it, I must learn to slum it So I'd really appreciate some links, or suggestions from some of you expericenced, seasoned mongers. This information will also help others. Don't mind where, as long as reasonably safe, accomodation must have in room safe, decent shower/bathroom/balcony/air conditioning/large fridge/clean a

The nice lady in 'Top Cheron' (spelling?) did this for me. The branch in Mike's shopping Mall (beach rd end, on left as you walk in).........ask for 'lucky' Yes, that's her name for us Ferrangs About 8 days later, I recieved new frame and lenses, which a Ladyboy promptly broke about 3 days later. Ouch that hurt A pair of 1.6 index lenses with anti reflective coating, cost me 2600 baht.

One more thought. Some of your 'desktop items' may not yet have permanent short cuts created onto the desktop. So you could do that manually. So click start......right click internet explorer........send to.........create desktop shortcut Same with any other program you wish to display on desktop, which is not yet displayed. If it's a brand new PC..........you won't have much on the desktop to start with.
-
Well the only thing I can think of is you have deselected the 'show desktop' items option. Right click on desk top.......arrange icons by.....show desktop icons. But I imagine you have already checked that.........so I just don't know You could do a system restore back to the date you first bought the PC? That might help?

So I guess we could see Manchester/Malaysia/Bangkok for £200? Would probably have to book well in advance for that price........then there is the hassle of getting to Manchester and back home again. I'd still be tempted to fly Emerates from Birmingham.........as I can't stand a long journey home on the way back.......nothing like airport to door in 20 mins.........I guess if you live in the Manchester area, it makes a quick 5 day vacation, a real possibilty.

Laser teeth whitening in Pattaya
ben99 replied to gentlemangeoff's topic in Doctors, Dentists, Clinics and Hospitals
Thanks http://www.colgate.com/app/Colgate/US/OC/I...mMyDentist.cvsp - so is it cheaper or more expensive than lazers? -
http://www.pac-safe.com/www/index.php?_roo...detail&id=1 Yes- this is it - the black one looks best - the trouble with keeping your wallet in your front pocket, is it could be pulled out by your own hand, when completely pissed - I've done this myself, so I know it can happen. Wear the pacsafe branded item, under your clothes (just below the belt area - it's very secure, comfortable and no one can pick pocket you - go out and get pissed in complete confidence - walk around with all your documents, without a care in the world. thread hijack over

Laser teeth whitening in Pattaya

I'm going to be really thick now........... What is a 'tray'? Don't know anything about Dentisty but intend going in Pattaya in June. Cheers -
Thanks When I was Kayaking on the River Kwai, I had my passport/cash/TC's, in the waterproof plastic pouch (now broken) contained within my Pacsafe waist wallet. I'd previously tested it and I knew it was 100% waterproof. So even if I had capsised, my document would have been safe and dry. I did not leave them at the hotel at the River Kwai, as there was no 'in room safe' and I always wear the waist wallet under my clothes, so I figure the whole lot is safer on me So I guess I will be buying some Asda 'ziplock' bags.
-
Regarding the 'ziplock' brand you mention. Is it also waterproof? I ask as the waterproof, plastic case (placed inside my Pacsafe waist wallet) I use to store my passport, money, has broken (zip). Could you do me a favour please?? Place some paper in one of these bags, zip/close it, then submerge the whole bag in water for a couple of mins, (in sink).......then dry the bag and take the paper out. If the paper is bone dry.........then I'll drive down to my local Asda and buy some. I'd appreciate any feedback. Thanks

Jasmine Mansion Soi Baukaow
ben99 replied to rainsberger's topic in Hotel and Accommodation Questions
I asked Cookie the same question via e.mail. It about 30 SQM's (including bathroom) but excluding the terrace and kitchen area outside. The Suite is booked from 10th June to 9th August I know because I booked it, so hands off Cookie will send you the photos via e.mail if you ask him nicely Apartment looks really nice. Alternatively, wait until the New Year, when the website should be updated. (that's the end of my duties as Cookies unappointed salesman) -
Thanks mate - I know my bearings now. Been in Coyotee Go Go a few times, but never ventured on foot past that point and my 'blind excited' state of mind, prevented me from looking over to the right! I'll be sure to pass some baht in the girls direction.
-
I think I'd be tired, hungry, wired from the flight. Probably worrying about check in and getting the room I booked + I like to keep an eye on what the taxi driver is doing, just incase I need to assume the 'crash position' + imagine how smelly most blokes are, after a long flight?
-
BA and Qantas now have January sale on, until the 23rd Jan (i think) Heathrow/Bangkok £480. Direct flight - 12 hours Not sure about the allowable fly dates though.

Insomnia? Is it in Walking St? The girls look really top quality.

Laser teeth whitening in Pattaya
ben99 replied to gentlemangeoff's topic in Doctors, Dentists, Clinics and Hospitals
so how long will it last? after say - three months - do the teeth still look as good as after three weeks? Cheers -
Yes, it's a vote winner for sure. My Father and I amuse ourselves listening to speeches and interviews from Gordon Brown. We always try and guess how many times the words 'hard working families' will be trotted out I'm voting Conservative at the next election - anything to stop Brown becoming Prime Minster. Back on topic I reckon this 'green tax' is a unlimited pot of gold - the air tax will rise every year at 10%+.
-
I can confirm they only care about introducing more stealth taxes. to pay benefits to 'hard working families' like tax credits. One example, a women earning £38k Gross, with two children, living alone, was effectively getting about 70% of her tax/national insurance payments refunded, by way of tax credits Utter madness. Meanwhile the single guy gets NO help and is shafted on a daily basis. England is shite - don't come here

Why not stay at home and get drunk on Guinness

That seems a good price - although Thai Air has had some bad reviews lately. I think we have seen the last of the very mild days and it can only get colder and more depressing over the next two months Shag a bar girl on my behalf please.....say....."this is from Ben99....bang, bang, slap, slap, spurt"
-
Fat chance I reckon Just checked Emirates - no seats left from Birmingham and £958 from Heathrow £500 - pigs will fly first

Well Gordon needs the extra funds, as in the same budget speech, he announced his intention to award child benefit to women with unborn sprogs GOD HELP US ALL The single man is finished in the U.K. now.
