  1. I went out on my bicycle to check out the floods this morning. There are rapids on Charoen Rat Rd. (along the east bank of the river) from the Gymkhana club to the electric company!

    Some pics of people out and about…

  2. Hi,

    I have a challenging design problem.  I want to remodel my condo, and open up one of the rooms to make it a large combined kitchen and open balcony.  BUT, I want to be able to close it off when the weather is bad, or when I leave Chiang Mai for a long time.

    I want to have very large windows that hinge at the top, and open outwards.  These windows will be very heavy, yet I want them to open easily, and stay put either fully open or fully closed.

    Does anybody have any recommendations?

    Thanks.

    Are these windows the outside windows on the balcony or are they to be used to close off the room from the balcony when weather is bad?

    The former (the outside windows on the balcony). It is a small room.

  4. Can anyone please tell me where I can buy a Murphy Bed, either locally made, or imported but in stock, here in Thailand? (A Murphy bed is a bed that can be lifted up and stored neatly in a cabinet.)

    Thanks

  5. I have been happily using AIS’s 1-2-call, which is a pre-paid service available to everyone, without the need for a special visa or a work permit. GPRS airtime is only one baht per minute. I have used it successfully all over Thailand.

    Currently 1-2-Call has two service plans (promotions):

    - 3 baht/min for a voice call, but only 20 days usage per “refueling” card; or

    - 5 baht/min for a voice call, but longer usage period.

    You can switch between the two plans by dialing *777 (I think), and following the directions, which are available in English and Thai.

    Please note, there is a Yahoo e-group specifically for this topic: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Thailand-WAP-GPRS

    Hope this helps.
