I work on the 19th floor and everyone from the building have gone downstairs and are hanging around outside on the road. Good excuse for a quick chat and a snack.

Just sitting in our office and the building starting shaking! Can anyone else feel this?

You've got "Plus 67" on soi 67 and "Sukhumvit Plus" on the corner of Sukhumvit and Rama 4. Both of these are within very easy walking distance to Prakanong BTS. More like 16-17K for a studio or 18-20K for a 1 bedroom though. For the price range you are looking at I don't think you will get anything within walking distance.

Perhaps take a stroll down Soi 71 and have a sniff around down there...

Big Mango on Soi 4 does and awsome cheeseburger.

I have noticed this too. Typically you will get some rain this time of year, but I reckon it's been much wetter so far. Friends in the UK have been telling me that it has been one of the dryest April's in history. Maybe we are getting their rain...

I'm up for a game. I'm pretty much a beginer but I haven't played in about 2-3 years.

I'm not a member of the raquet club (but am considering it as it is near to my house) How much is he guest fee?

Bangkok Pizza changed his hours of service, now the deliver till 2.00am on weekends only, and till 12.00 the other days.

Becuase they sell only western food, they only have work when farangs are around.

Yeah, they have also changed the time they open from 11am to 4pm!! No more cheap lunch deal for 89 Baht!! Scandalous.

Ball, do you live in Baan Saran Nuch? If so, same place as me!

I was gonna live there as well. It was a toss up between there and the place I eventually chose in Prakanong.

Baan Saran Nuch is really nice and great value for money. (No pool tho).

Thats sorted it.

Thanks a load Monty, I was about to throw the thing out of the bloody window!!

Cheers mate.

Hi,

I have just bought an O2 Atom Exec PDA with Windows Mobile 5.0 software.

I want to be able to recieve my work emails via the company server. I can connect to the internet no problem, however whenever I try to download POP3 emails from my work server I get a message saying that I cannot connect to the server or something.

I think the problem is related to the fact that on my laptop and desktop versions of "Outlook" I can input the Incoming and Outgoing "Port Settings" 9000 and 25 respectively. However my PDA doesn't seem to have the ability to input these numbers.

Any suggestions how I can get it working please?

Cheers.

I hate rainy season. Getting pissed on everyday and arriving at work/pub/anywhere like a drowned rat. Cool season is the best by far, all 2 months of it

Although I do like it when I'm at home nice and warm and a huge storm rolls in.

Best:

Italian

Thai

Indian

Japanese

Worst:

French

German

Eastern European (Bulgarian, Romanian etc.)

CM-Happy: I thought it was just me!!

As of yesterday afternoon my view of a thread went really messed up. To change it just go into "Options" at the start of the thread and select "Standard view".

Closed down at least a year ago mate. Hassle from the police and complaints from the neighbours I believe. Shame.

Orient Air (Part of "Fly 1 2 Go") are supposed to be pretty cheap. I've never flown with them so I can't vouch for them personally. Take a look at the link:

The Omni Hotel on Soi 4 has 2 squash courts.

President Hotel at the end of Soi 24 has a fitness club [Capitol Club ?]that has courts.

British Club down on Silom Soi 18 is very private but they have courts too.

Any idea of the prices? I'm also looking to start playing. Hopefully around Sukhumvit...

My condo is pretty small, but in my opinion there are better things for me to do with my time than washing the dishes, floor, toilet etc etc.

Once a week for approx 2 hours. 300 Baht a time. Central Bangkok. No complaints.

for italian pizza here i like Bella Napoli, unfortunately they dont deliver.

My favourate Italian style pizza too. They do deliver (limited area) The numbers are: 02 712 9608 and 02 259 0405.

It's a hotdog cooked with corn bread surrounding it. Kind of like those prezel dogs you get at the mall.

It's good!

Sounds weird.

I think I'll stick with my toad in the hole and spotted dick.

By the way Libya 115, just goes to show people do read the news sub forum, got 60 replies on this topic already.

Yes; this sub-forum is proving very popular; I often receive PM's praising my hard work and absolute dedication to the responsible and important task of bringing the latest Pattaya news (good or bad) to your attention.

I still miss your jokes tho Libya.

I just had an extremely enjoyable Burger King chicken club meal and it was lovely. Burger King rules!!

How can you mass produce Pad Thai or Tam Yum?

Pretty easily. Pad Thai takes about 10 seconds to cook (as you will see on many streets in BKK) I'm sure Tom Yam could be produced en mass without too much difficulty.

My sentiments exactly Yatyisam.

IMHO the OP has either never had a good pizza, is very easily pleased, or is working for Bangkok Pizza!!

LOL

Sorry to disagree, but I found the pizza from "Bangkok Pizza" to be pretty dry and generally not all that great...

There are definatly better places out there IMO, for example, "Pizza Mania" and "Bella Napoli"

It's not great, but it's not that bad!!!

Abu Dhabi is worse.
