  1. Just in case anyone is interested, last night's fireworks kicked of at 8:15pm. There were 4 sessions in all. I missed the first, 2nd was Singapore, 3rd USA and the last China. The last session kicked off at 11pm.

    I can't read the event schedule, but perhaps tonight's schedule will be about the same.

    I suggest bringing a nice thick towel or two and camping on the beach in between Soi 7 and 8, right in front of the barges.

    This post should clear things up ;)

  2. It seems that your a Cheap Charlie if you refuse to pay 200 THB for a Big C Taxi for a short distance, and if you ask their excuse for these amounts, they say "Petrol Prices", but if you say Petrol is still at 29.xx for a long time. The shut up and walk away.

    I bet next time they will ask you money for helping you loading stuff in to their car.

    not sure what time period you are speaking from when you discuss petrol prices.

    91 regular is 43.75 and 91 gasohol is 35.38 thb/liter

    to compare.. that same petrol in Jan 2012 was

    91 regular 35.77 and 91 gasohol was 32.74 thb/liiter

    Sorry but in this context Petrol was Diesel as this is what these guys use. Or LPG or NGV

  4. Cigarettes and Beer are readily available and if you want the nasty stuff, just try your luck with Lao Khao (Thai Rice Whiskey)

  5. Semper -

    This is the information about your own avatar

    You must have loaded it into your account in TV I think.

    Now take a look at the properties of the ones you can not see and post them here for us to analyse.

    What browser and version are you using? I am guessing this is a recent problem, so what settings or configurations have you changed recently?

    MJCM's avatar information is this

    http://www.gravatar....fault_large.png

    so it looks like a hot-linked avatar that TV use - based on MJCM saying that he uses the "standard" TV one...

    Ok. I'm using IE9 and this is the info I get from the "properties" of MJCM's avatar:

    I see this with IE9

    Semper, can you open this site ?

  6. I see from a paper in Bkk today that a monk in chon buri just won 54 million on the lottery, as the saying goes you could not really make it up. Now he will have to come to bkk due to all the claims from people saying he owes them cash, in some cases millions. Of course he could have just donated it all as I think he should have.

    Excuse for me writing this, but it seems to me that you are just looking for an excuse not to give them any money.

    It's of course up to you, just give them any amount which you think is adequate, or let your wife / gf deal with it.

  7. This is a "print screen" 1 minute ago from General.

    Could be a slow connection to a specific hot-linked page of avatars, or a slow connection generally, or a "filter" in your isp's system, or a dodgy browser, or a browser cache full, or maybe the image actually doesn't exist anymore.

    Try to rightclick on the image and you can look at properties, view the image separately, etc.

    Hope that helps wink.png

    For example, I can see your avatar, but not MJCM's (see post # 11). blink.png

    I am using the standard TV avatar so none to be seen.
