Looking at the paws, at this age I would suggest she will be quite a big dog. There is a hint of a Lab in the snout but to be honest I cannot see any pit bull in there.

Nice dog tho

An Expatriate Managing Director (lady) who travels frequently and resides in a very upmarket house in the Chaeng Wattana area, is urgently looking for a full time live in maid.

The ideal applicant should be older than 35, and have no commitments, she should be experienced in all household duties and be able to cook simple dishes. as the lady has a lovely Labrador dog, a dog lover would be expected.

Please note that majority of the time the employer is the only resident in the property, so the work load is not expected to be high.

The employer is offering a competitive salary and the Maid will be given her own very comfortable living area complete with bathroom, shower and TV etc.

English language ability would be an advantage, but necessary as the employer speaks reasonable Thai.

If any one knows of such a person requiring work such as this, please pm me as it is quite urgent

Transfer cash via ATM and fax/scan them the ATM receipt. Works everytime

I would have thought that with the strength of the Baht that the fuel surcharge should be lowered. I note in todays Press that PTT are lowering their fuel prices by 40-70 satang so what is TG up to ??

I was extremely pisched off that the game was not shown live on ESPB/Star Sports, There was I sitting comfortably at 1720 rearing to go and all I could see was a 9 ball tournament. strange decision that by the powers that be as it promised and as it turned out, seemed to be a good game !

It would be helpful if the OP explained where his friend will be staying whilst in Thailand. I know of a number of orchid farms /plantations round the BKK area, but not much good to him if he is in CM etc

Whilst not wishing to get involved with religious/racial arguments etc, but I must admit I have often wondered why a "Prayer Room" should be allowed to be misused as a doss house !

All I have seen on my walks past the sacred room is bodies crashed out sleeping, now surely isnt that abuse of a religious privilege ??

So the tournament is up a running, or should I say laying, nope how about prostrated. Whatever it seems as if our Arabic neighbours have the same tactics off to a tee.

A slight physical tackle results in them writhing all over the pitch, it would be funny to watch if it wasnt so darned annoying. IU think its about timew the ref superglues a red card to one of his hands - that will soon put a stop to it

I have had the use of a Carnival quite often just lately. Nice car, good Auto transmission, good accessories and comfortable to drive. In your case, my biggest concernwould be the amount of electrics being used, with seat adjustments etc all electrical, and we all know how dodgy electrics can be in hot humind countries.

As for fuel consumption, a recent return trip Chaeng Wattana to Chonburi city via the highway cost about 1500 Baht in fuel

Thanks very much, very appreciated

Not too sure about this but its possible that Star/ESPN will still be available on certain UBC packages !!!

Have just had the misfortune of having a total computer crash requiring reformatting etc. Unfortunately I do not know the ISP setting for internet using ToT

Anyone k now them ???

I can not understand why the ranters carry on as they do, their input certainly does not help the op in his quest of whether or he he should go to China.

But it does very clearly show that racism is still alive and kicking !!

I had the same problem earlier this year, British passport holder but was informed if I applied in person, that section was not required to be filled in.

I am actually using the services of Sunbelt right now and am very comfident in Andy et al. My point however was simply this, Sunbelts name is seen all over this website and services offered well mentioned, and yet more than once questions such as that by the op are seen .

I was actually promoting you Sunbelt, please let me have your full address so as I can invoice you for my services.

Hey Ho Hey Ho its off to work we go !!!!!

They say ignorance is bliss,. but what the heck is a dropshipper ???

Seems as if Sunbelt are wasting their time and money by being sponsors !!!!!!!!

Thanks people, as stated, will go to the Labour etc tomorrow

I was a constant business visitor to China in the late 80's - middle 90's, travelling all over as a service Engineer for a UK based Fire truck manufacturer. Those were the days when it was not unknown to fly domestically and find no seat belts or a small pig/chickens in the overhead lockers.

The days when "Gweilo" were looked down upon, the days of the Mao jackets and boring baggy clothing worn by the female population, the days when the security police insisted of checking your hotel room at 3am to ensure than none of the nations female population were sharing your hard lumpy mattress. The days of foreigners not being able to change foreign currency into Yuan, but having to settle for what was described as Chinas tourist money, which the locals were not allowed to obtain.

Being able to converse to the locals - hahaha come off it, they werent allowed to talk to foreigners. Yes the China of the past - and its obvious fellow posters on here were never there during those years.

After each journey landing back at dear old Kai Tak airport or crossing the border bridge at Lo Wu was a huge relief, I promised myself that I would never ever go back to the PRC again. Those promises were broken time and time again until 1995 when I was given alternative territory to break in!

So its been 12 years since I went to the PRC last, until last month when I had a business trip to Kunming. My God, was this the same China that I visited so often so many years ago, total change, beautifully dressed girls, polite people,clean and green city with wonderful food. fantastic weather. English speaking shop/hotel staff

How times have changed, and I can assure you if I were 20 years younger I would be learning Mandarin and getting my feet under the table.

Dont knock it unless you have seen a lot of China and how the present time has seen China change and grow into a nice country with mostly nice people.

Thanks Lopburi, will start the process tomorrow then as planned.

Mark, I dont know if you realise this, but the new Rama IV bridge from Chaeng Wattana Rd can take you to Bang bua Thong in approximately 20-30 mins.

If you are mobile with wheels then you can think about this option for living areas

My fith WP and Visa expires on the 26th July, all documentation is completed and ready to submit for action to be taken. However when is the best time to submit ? I have been told if I do it too early then I am likely to get a renewal only up to the date of expiry, then have to go through the whole procedure again on the 26th July.

So when is the best time to submit, now, a week before the expiry date or when ????

Yes it is nonthaburi, BUT strangely enough, Bangkok is only a hundred metres away. Prachachuen road seems to be the boundary so I am in Nonthaburi by 100metres.

slow down fellas, I have a 3 bedroom house, 2 storey with largish garden, this in the Sammakkee Rd / Cheang Wattana area.Close to Expressway, Nice mooban and paying 12.5 a month.

Suggest you just locate the area you are looking for then drive around looking for the FOR RENT signs.

If you are prepared to relocate to Bangkok please pm me.
