How does the 5800 compare with the N95 (Black) 8gb version?

Where is the best price for this phone in Bangkok? In Pantip or in MBK or somewhere else? I was told that in MBK prices for the black 8 gb version were ranging from 14,500 to 22,500 Baht on Tuesday evening.

As a Thai Airways silver card owner can I use their lounges? If not how do I get the gold card which surely allows this? How many flights to UK economy class to get gold card status?

I have comprehensive car insurance in Bangkok with a local company for my 2004 BMW (it is for full repairs but not at BMW dealer, if I use BMW dealer there is an excess). I have had the insurance for over a year. My BMW car badge on the front grill has been stolen, can I claim for this, is it likely that I must pay something for the badge? I have no idea of the cost. Of course I want it fixed on securely.

Is that the only option?

The language school above?

Can someone give some advice on getting an education visa?

What school/university options are there for non Thais to stay here?

what are the easiest options?

Wow Livinginexile...you do seem to have an issue with me. I wonder who you are? Anyway maybe you should meet me soon in person and judge if I have any qualities? I offer you a warm welcome to have a tour of my school, are you available soon?

That post above is not written by me....sorry Livinginexile...maybe you posted it?

Maybe Livinginexile would like to meet me and then judge me and my qualities?

Go to Super Rich next to Big C in front of Central World, you will get close to the T/T rate for cash money. Easy and simple.

Do SUPERICH only have one office in BKK? Any other locations in BKK?

I want to play my DVD's on my laptop...I have a DVD built into my laptop where I can place my DVD's but they wont play....do I need to download free software? I am not a technical guy so forgive my ignorance here...

Which ACER model laptop would you recommend that has a built in webcam facility??

Can anyone recommend best place to buy good price music CD's?? .....I want western rock CD's like Pink Floyd/Deep Purple/REM etc

st johns god i wouldnt recommend that one of my friends went there he hated everything about and move to my school, harrow. I've been there for 10 years now. I have loved every bit about it the school has a great campus now and great teachers who help you alot throught tough times. Alot of the school passes to top Uni's in and outside of Thailand. I used to go to many other schools before, I know Harrow maybe a little expensive but it is worth it. It's a peaceful school. I used to go to Assumption College but not in BKK but all of them schools are very good. I went to Bangkok Patana School, full of alot of different nationalities, great school but the students need banging in the head sometimes... I think education is important however young you are because you start to pick up things better then you are younger and learning somewhere that is up to high standards help.

icebkk - are you a student at Harrow? You're not really doing the school any justice with your terrible spelling and grammatical errors and bad-mouthing of other schools. Readers, please do not think this is the quality of English we produce at Harrow and the attitudes we support. Great to hear the positive comments about Harrow though, icebkk.

im a teenager ur not expecting me to type like u r u? all i have to say is i can have my opinions about whatever school i want to ... people are all diff u know esp wen we r outside of skool.... u dont expect me to be the same person in and out of skool do u? i kno a lot more of the ppl in the skool that have worse spelling than me.... im not english ... i dnt wish to be im thai and proud

hello johnfb.. thanks for inviting me im good thanks but i am happy that you are improving the school i still have a few friends that go there at the moment too so its pretty good to hear that ur doing better

Well Icebkk the invite is given sincerely....just call the school and I will personally take you around St John's ok? It would be good to prove that SJIS is a really good school.

SJIS (Saint John's International School) is a very good school now. Your negative comments were based on experiences ten years ago, can I invite you to come and see my school now and I am certain you will be impressed. I know that both Harrow International School and Saint John's International School both offer an excellent education for students in Bangkok. Please send me a PM and come and look at SJIS and perhaps then you can post a more up to date and therefore accurate view.

any other ideas?

Is it possible and easy to get a one yr visa for my gf (filipino) to stay in Bangkok?

At the end of Nov 2008 she will have had her 3 x 30 days here. I was trying to avoid her having to study Thai....but other educational options are of interest. Is going to get legal help going to assist?

Thank u.

With an Eva Green Card (basic one) how many econ flights to UK return do u need to make to get a silver card?

Anyone know of anywhere there is a Pinball Table in Bkk...?

The missis is always playing Pinball on the computer, but has never played a real table...

CHeers.

The Londoner on soi 33 sukhumvit has one.

Is this market open this evening?(TUES)...What times is it open? Which stop/Exit is it on MRT?

Thanks

I might fly soon business class to London via Kuwait with Kuwait Airways.

1) What are the standards like business class with Kuwait Airways on this route?

2) What is it like at Kuwait airport? I am there for over 6 hours. Is the business class lounge in Kuwait and in Heathrow?

I had these wooden animal cages made in the UK to transport my two large European sized cats from the UK to Bangkok. They cost 120 pounds sterling to have made and were manufactured by the British Airways recommended animal transport agent. The TWO cages as you can see are attached, but they can be easily made into one larger cage. A bargain awaits anyone needing this unusual item...make me an offer. Available to view in Bangkok in ASOKE , call me on 0836180297 ( English speaker by day/evening ) or pm me with your e-mail address. Make me an offer, I am not looking for a big price.

Dimensions are 68cm x 36cm x 48cm

Is there any airline that has internet available for passengers on flights? Is there free internet available on flights?
