Where can I get an Ipad and how much are they going for?

Do you think it will get better before the end of the year?

I am planing on retuning in November but now I'm seriously thinking about staying put now. It's depressing

Is that the official Kean video?

This is another sad story and my condolences to the family and friends of the victim. I think damian500 has a fair point to ask why has there been nothing printed in the media? Not to say this story is false but since Ive been in Chiangmai Ive been told alot of stories, that have turned out to be false. A couple of weeks ago, I was told by our Thai neighbour that a bomb went off in Chiangmai Sunday market last week killing over 10 people. Our neighbour owns a restaurant in the Sunday market area and has got this info from a friend of hers, and it's been passed on as truth without anyone actually seeing it. I checked every newspaper, watched the news and nothing on a mass killing in Chiangmai. Although many people tell lies for the benifit of a good story, I doubt this to be the case here, I think information just gets jumbled, and wires get crossed along the way. I don't have the time to investigate every thing I hear, so I have to evaluate with the facts I recieve and trust I make the right judgment. R.I.P unknown woman, may justice be served on the nut job that ended your life.

Yeah, heard (and not believed it) too, that would have been all over the news. Furthermore a week before me, my visiting family and GF went off to Phuket, we received some phone calls from her family, not to go, as Tsunami's had been prededicted for the next week .

Oh and remember, always turn of your phone when a thunderstorm is coming, the lightning will addept to GSM frequenties and seek out to hit your telephone. Only in Thailand.

Furthermore, I think it's not fair to only picture Spicy as a low trash dirt pit. I've had many nights of good fun there when I was still backpacking, I have some friends who still end up their on occasions, for old times sake. It's a one-in-it's kind place in Chiang Mai. But indeed a place to be extra careful in a otherwise safe city.

I hope your right, and this is not to be believed. If it is false, this needs to be cleared up as it's not fair as you say to picture Spicey as a low trash dirt pit, based on rumours??? I think the person who started this threat is the owner of Dragonfly, which makes me think.......Ive been tempted to ask the people at the door of Spicey when Ive walked past, but then thought otherwise:whistling:

I meet my friend every night after her work , we go to sompet market for noddle soup around 4am (ish). If there was A girl "Stabbed 9 times an thrown into the moat" it would not of went unnoticed to the folk that sell at sompet. There would be Ambulance's, Rescue Crew, police and all sorts of commotion going on. Yet all we have is rumour and hearsay.

I don't know the Dragonfly, Is it a Girl Bar? There is more than meets the eye to this story.

Also I'd still like to know , why put up a Poll?

Anyone who finds any bars with decent English commentary please post here, John's place was advertising it outside today, not sure if it's true though. Just over three hours and counting! Can't wait, enjoy everyone!

Bargain Booze has the World Cup in English. They're just up from the Un Irish bar opposite to The Wall restaurant

Did Bargain Booze and Dragonfly Bar have in sync commentary in English with True HD ?

Bargain Booze are showing via the internet

damian; it seems that the incident(stabbing) may have taken place, by several accounts, granted no eye witness as yet.To call for photo proof and until its produced you will consider the messenger full of crap may be somewhat to the extreme. I did not see you producing a photo of your slashed cap or another referenced eye witness of your version of your encounter, nor did anyone ask for it, as yet

Coincidentally, the night before this lady was killed (?). A farang got into it with me and the prick DJ smashed a glass over my head (long story short). It sliced through the thick plastic of my cap and caused a little 5 stitch gash. But you should see the cut on the cap. If not for it I'd have a nice 3 or 4 inch gash to the bone across my forehead, face, and possibly left eye.

The DJ actually smashed a glass over your head, causing a wound that required 5 stitches? Are we supposed to believe this rumour without actually seeing the hospital bill?

LOL and thanks guys.

My bile was just about to rise and angry posts about to written, but you took care of it for me.

I have my account from 3 eyewitnessess, I have copies of the police report because it was taken down in my place of business. I have a police photo of the subject, and know where her 3 friends used to work here in CM.

For the sake of allinvolvedd and their privacy I will not publish any of this material. I might beconvincedd to post the picture of the suspect if a mod said it wasOKk.

I think he asked for a Photo of the newspaper article at least, no? I still don't believe this story, no facts all <deleted>! " My friend has a friend and her cousins window cleaner said that blah blah blah"....Come on! Stabbed 9 times and thrown into the moat hmmm and what's the relevance of putting a poll up on Spicy? ...Someone has an axe to grind,me thinks

Any confirmation from Chiang Mai Mail or another source about this?

There's no confirmation on this, because it bullshit!

Does anyone if there is a place that I can hire out some tools. I need a buffer I have to compound a car.

Right so the defos are.....

Tuskers

Dragonfly

Half Moon

Have I missed any other defos?

The ones I think will have it and in English are....

Chiangmai Saloon? Olde Bell? Number 1? John's place? The Wall? U.N Irish? Queen Vic? The sports bar at the Night Bazaar?

I'll try and check some of these establishments this coming week, would have done tmrw for Champs lge final, but obv unable due to curfew.

Would love to watch some matches round JJ, but doubt any English commentary there.

Please post and more defos that any of you may know.

Cheers

Maple Leaf Bar, Loi Kroh. All matches in HD on the 50 inch screen, Audio?

The Maple Leaf , eh? What's the story with the women there? Is it a special massage you get there?

CM Fc logo is 3 kings monument...how can CM residents not knowing this?

Wow...speechless...about time to learn some local history?

No one likes a "know all"

Is the logo not a Tiger?

I notice the other night when I was watching the champions league final that they didn't show Ads during the match. Will this be the cause during the World Cup? Is their anyway to find out for sure before it kicks off.

Also I was in the WEtv office the other day and they said they knew nothing of Supersport being switched off at the end of the month. What's the story there?

There is a good one in Bon Yoo market Locals call it larb Isan it's next to Royal India restaurant

Has anyone got a link for the current leauge table?

Samet is a quicker trip from Bangkok than Ko Chang is. Koh Chang may be less developed/less touristy, but Samet has a more natural feel to it - less cars and no real pavement. I've frequented both places and much prefer Koh Samet.

Witch has the better nightlife?

Pattaya is close to Bangkok and cheap too, but swim in the hotel swimming pool - not at the beach.

Why is the beach filthy?

I'm off home soon for a couple of months and I want to get some beach time in before I go. Looking for a nice beach and somewhere with a little bit of a nightlife too . Don't want to travel to far from Bangkok.

Any Reccommendations please?

According to the fixture list, this weeks game is at the 700 year stadium, they usually play at the municiple stadium in town. I'll drive by tomorrow some time and get a clarification on it. Kick off is 6pm.

Where can I get Chiang Mai FC jersey?

I'm not sure if it is 300 bath, He could always bring the 5kg on as hand luggage You can give me a spankying tonight bofore he gets here ,It's your last night of freedom for awhile

You're allowed 15kg when you but at the Air Asia desk and then I think it's 300 bath a kg after that. If you buy online there is an discount option on how much baggage you can bring on.

Where's the best place in Chiang mai to get Dentures? Just a single tooth will do

I'm looking to buy a Gazebo but don't know where to buy one, any ideas and how much they are?

What Smartphone? If it's iPhone, you download them, if it's Android you download them, if it's Symbian, you download them, if it doesn't download them then it isn't a very Smart Phone.

iPhone apps you can buy discs full of them at Panthip upstairs I think.

Same goes for Nokia.

It's a Nokia N95, I'm not that computer Savvy , I tried downloading them with no success. I just want to walk into a shop and buy some and get them uploaded on to my phone for me.

It is the mobile phone shop next to Tom Lay Cut hair salon.

Typing this on my new iPad. Got 500 baht discount. Thanks Orita.

So how much was it?

Their was a shop there that sold them but it's gone now, had a look around couldn't find another one
