I have also stayed in the Kosit Hill Hotel. Only about 2 weeks ago i was there.

I thought it was a lovely hotel and was hardly anyone staying there at that time.

I paid 1100baht a night. Close to town. I recommend it if you will be in that area.

I still don't imagine Tyson (especially now) would do to well if we could find a Thai boxer who was big enough to match him for range

Somewhere along the line you hav all mis-read something. The article states that Tyson was just making contact for training purposes. There is nothing about him actually fighting a Muay Thai boxer. It's not going to happen, it's not hoped or planned to happen.

Somehow you have all given each other the impression that there is some suggestion of him in a pro match up with a muay thai boxer.

He's just after a few training tips.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Or we're all just giving our opinions on wether we think a Muay Thai fighter could defeat Tyson in a match.

I reckon Remy Bonjasky or Jarome LaBanner would give Tyson a good go.

They are both pretty big, well Bonjasky is tall and Labanner is tall and pretty solid.

My B-Day was last Saturday, 26th of Feb.

I got a broken ankle for my birthday. Gutted.

But i still managed to have a good night out.

I believe 'kao' can be he/she/it in a rising tone.

Thanks a lot for your help.

That was how i thought Jeed would of been except i didn't know about the special mark above "jee"

Thanks again

Hi there,

Im wanting some help writing a couple of names in Thai.

The names are Jeed and Micky.

I think i know how to write Jeed in Thai but just need to know for sure.

And Micky i don't really have an idea about.

Any help would be much appreciated.

I like to drink Singha, Chang and Tiger.

Although its hard to get hold of Singha and Chang here unless you goto a Thai restaurant.

I reckon i've got to be one of the youngest here.

Im 20 in 1 week and 1 day.

But i think im mentally a few years older.

Im assuming your talking about Thai Airways?

I had a similar thing happen to me when i was looking for flights from New Zealand to Bangkok. When i searched on their online booking system i was getting quotes of between 5500 - 6500NZD. That to me is an insane price for economy class.

Went to the travel agent and go a return ticket for 1070NZD.

But sorry i cant answer you question.

Oh come on NedKelly, give us the rest of the story.

New Zealand Represent.

Im from the South Island, Queenstown to be exact.

But there is no nervous sheep around me.

Thanks for the replies. At this point in time i don't have any specific questions but may do later. But if there is more anyone can add to this please do so.

I just wanted to get a general idea of the place.

Thanks again

Well i have only been once so far, but will be going for my second trip soon. Only went to Bangkok, Phuket and Phi Phi Island though. I think ill get round abit more on my next trip.

Hey all,

Firstly sorry if this has been put in the from forum but wasn't too sure where it should of gone.

I am just wanting to hear from anyone who has been to Petchaboon. I don't really know anything about the place.

Any info would be greatly appreciated. Like how big it is, whats there to do there, do many tourist go there, tyoe of people who live there, pretty much anything you know.

Thanks a lot.

Yesterday got a quote for a twelve month valid ticket from Brisbane australia to BKK on 4th March, which is low season. Thai air was $A1399. cheapest available was $1299 royal Brunei with a stopover in brunei. As I recall,  I paid the same sought of money for the same flight in March last year.

I just paid for my flights from Auckland, NZ to Bangkok return for the 14th of march and paid $1070NZ including taxes. That was with Thai Airways and definitly was the cheapest fare i could find.

The power cables shouldn't need conduits. Im not sure on the regulations (if there are any) in Thailand for electricity but as long as its new cable and has no exposed conductors it should be sweet. I think putting it in the ground would make it safer than overhead lines.

Hey all

Im pretty new here aswell. Have been browsing the forum for a month or 2 and just recently decided to register.

I am from Queenstown, New Zealand. Have only been to Thailand once but have already planned my next one in march and will try to get there for longer periods of time in the next few years.

I find this forum very useful. You can pretty much get an answer to any question you have about the LOS.

Cheers

I also went to Thailand for the first time in October/November '04 for the first time. And fell in love with the place. I am almost all booked up to come back in mid-march.

Abit off topic but can anyone tell me roughly the price for a return air ticket from Bangkok to Phuket in Baht?

Thanks
