  1. People saying not to difficult for a western man to get another girl. Problem is if your down on money it's not going to be easy.
  2. Did anyone see the electric car that had an accident and costs 800,000+ for replacement batteries.
  3. Must admit the thai driver must have jumped so much after hearing the scream when he was just resting his eyes. Probably shouldn't have been driving the minibus though
  4. Such as? Not many if any at all that are as cheap as Thai Post.
  5. The 300 baht fee most people would not even know about until arrival. Just another little surprise to start the holiday.
  6. I am guessing a ladyboy took his fake Rolex watch and he thought hang on a minute this might work well for me.
  7. Yes i am sure the Thunder has great results in certain locations with yours being exceptional. Still even for us its very cheap internet for a year . I am sure on our holidays we will get a much faster connection which is the main reason we buy a 1 year sim and going away for a vacation and having both Ais and the mighty Thunder will give us a good chance that one will work well. Thanks for your time with this you have put in a lot of work . I see you can test your signal . Have you got a link for this so i can check? I see you had a
  8. Some speedtests like Ookla and TOT seem to give much higher readings. We are still getting much faster Internet with the Ais marathon sim 1 year package. Good to see the NT thunder sim works well in your location but it's very hit and miss for us with frquent disconnecting. We have not seen over around 15mbps. Not used it now for a few days but it will be a good back up if needed.
  9. At least knock on his door and see if he wants to share.
  10. Well I would put 2500baht In a safe and the other 2500baht probably your right under the bed.
  11. Have you not seen how much some taxi drivers can squeeze out of tourists?
  12. It seems the banks are not going to compensate for many of these cases. With the shi7e interest rates probably better to keep it in the house. At least its safer at the moment.
  13. I remember many years ago a group of us went to one of the Spanish islands . We went to rent mopeds and had to show we could ride up the road and back without falling off before we could rent the bikes. (Turns out the owner of the shop just had one drunk lad go off the end of the pier on one of his mopeds) We passed that easily enough and all thought that was so easy but Thailand is way more relaxed just leave your id and off you go.
  14. "No I am a lady its just my time of the month" You can do me in the doot though.!
  15. I mentioned it once. But I think I got away with it.
  16. I was looking at changing from TOT (NT) 590 baht a month 1000/500 To Ais Fibre but packages seem almost the same and speeds from my current Fibre connection to pc are more than fast enough . For the home I would never be able to give up the fibre connection as it keeps 4 of us with extremely quick Internet.
  17. Just an update we have also got a 100gb net marathon sim from Ais and while in Hua Hin staying in a hotel in the centre we were getting much better speeds from the Ais than the Thunder(555) NT sim . Saying that even at home in Bangkok the Ais was quicker every time we tested was around 13mbps-24mbps The NT sim was lucky to get 3mbps in Hua hin and since going back to Bangkok it has dropped to 4-5 mbps The Ais is limited to 100gb a month which is more than enough but the NT is unlimited but so slow that we probably would not use it much. These are fine for travelling and cheap for 1 year but nothing replaces a quick fibre like TOT at 600 baht 1000/500mbps a month which . Tempted to move to Ais fibre but not sure it would make any difference .
  18. There Is a facebook group where they are trying to get the 2 Burmese released but it doesn't look good even with new found evidence. I feel the family is so well protected even though everyone knows who it is , Nothing is going to change.
  19. I used to spend months at a time on the island between 1997-2001 and is was absolutely beautiful. Stopped going when it started get more crowded and only just went back last year for a few days. Really sad how it has changed ! I took my son to shark bay which is difficult to get to now and all the coral is dead and sharks have disappeared. The main areas have become an eyesore. Sadly if this poor man had died anywhere else in Thailand it probably would not have made the news but as this is the notorious Koh Tao it is questionable. Rip .
  20. I did mine many many years ago and was fitter than I am now so not sure that would count.
  21. Yes still better than my dtac sim was most of the time. You would need to check at your location with the 199 baht first.
  22. Yeah I know that but just when we get somewhere for a few nights it should be fine.
