Re: Looking for potential rent
That's a short rental Johan. What's your budget? I am not really having a set limit on budget Tamada, but I am not going to rent something completely crazy though... But if I cant find what I am looking for, then I dont mind living those 1-2 months at Centara hotel or DE Princess hotel... I was jus...

Re: ANYONE USED SUPERRICH TO EXCHANGE £ NOTES TO BAHT
I am just asking, because I read some post about the rates many banks take to exchange the local currency to Baht before heading over to Thailand, and on there it was suggested that it was just as good to just use an atm instead, and I just found that strange... I dont know if Danish cards have some...

Re: schools obsessed with uniforms
[quote Teach them early that appearance is much more important than intellectual development. Evidently the appearance thing doesn't register with Thais. They are some of the sloppiest dressers I have ever seen. Never seen an older one with an ironed shirt or pants and never seen a shoe that has be...

Re: Currency Crisis Happening Now
It might be that the Thai economy is on an upward spiral, but it looks like they are set to loose against their neighbour countries as they seem to have much more flexibility in many affairs that are locked in tons of paperwork and corruption inside the Thai government system... Also the fact that t...

Re: Are we into a Recession already here in Udon?
Is it inevitable that many places in Thailand will run into recession... Prices on many goods have gone up aswell as other services, but the average Thai person does not earn the deficit in prices.. I have heard from many people in the village I live in, that things are getting very hard economicall...

It is sad to see that high number of young ones loosing their life in traffic accidents, but after a few days here in Udon I am not so surprised though. The amount of young poeple on those scooters everywhere, and watching how they drive and cut corners straight into oncoming traffic... I really don...

Re: Blacksmith who can make Daab sword
Here are a few suggestions: There's an outdoor market about 10km past Nongwahsaw, on the way to Nongbualamphu. In Thai it's called ตลาดห้วยเดื่อ . It's about 200m past the dinosaur museum as you're going toward Nongbualamphu, on the same side as the museum. There's a vendor there who sells a wide v...

Re: Blacksmith who can make Daab sword
Beneficial commentary.. Mmmmhhhmmm yes yes... What is wrong with asking a plain question about an item that I have for many years wanted as decoration... Perhaps with so many keyboard warriors around it is better not to ask questions

Re: Thoms and child support
If you dont feel like they pity you, then that is probably because they infact dont do... It is as the saying goes: Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice shame on me..

I have been on Samui 3 times, and I can just say from my experience that I am NEVER going to rent a villa up in the hills again.. The most of them are extremely steep, and there are many taxi´s that refuse to drive up some of them... The prices on Samui are also quite high compared to many other pla...
