  1. I've used Forte Agent  as my email client since 1995   lots of features , have a local offline copy of all my emails from different providers (Yahoo,Gmail etc) in one place you can write email offline,send receive to/from  Gmail,Yahoo etc when the net comes back on ( ok less of a problem now than it was in 1995)

    One consistent user interface for all  email accounts...I liked it so much I actually paid them money !!!!

    :shock1:   ????

    luxury rental condos in the range of Bt25,000 to Bt150,000 per month are suffering

    150,000 baht per month for a condo !!!!     must have been some sort of corporate tax write off scheme I just can't comprehend who in "their right mind" would spend such huge amounts of money to rent a condo :crazy:

     

    PS  yes I can't afford to spend that much but wouldn't even if I could ????

    However, around 20 officials from the army also were present and told the media that we were not allowed into the meeting, as the land belonged to the air force. They also told the media not to release any news about this matter and to only do so following a letter of permission.

    Dr. Panwipa Klitsadapong, manager of Star Dome said that Star Dome had bid for the rights to manage this golf course for 30 years, from 2007-2037, investing over 200 million baht in the nine hole golf course and driving range along with all of the other facilities and landscaping. After signing the contract, the army contacted them to tell them that thirty years was too long and asked to renegotiate every three years, when the rent would increase by 5%

    Another reminder to those thinking of  "investing"

    using engine braking is one of the best way to slow down the bike aside from the brakes

    Not many other (sensible) options left.... stick your foot on the tire  like we did  as kids on pedal bikes , run it into a brick wall,aim for the chubbiest person on the zebra crossing...I haven't tried a parachute ????

    No trash as theirs no foreigners to drop it. 

    Well I sat on Jomtien beach for a few hours (and a few beers) on Tuesday   there where a lot of Thais there but surprisingly they where quite good about taking their rubbish away..the bins that are normally situated on the beach side of the road where missing  so they either took it with them or to the bins across the road..normally they just leave it on the beach...I did see the  new "super duper" musical dustcart/rubbish removal van pass by twice too !!!!
