Try the big hotels, Twin Lotus, Ligor or Grand Park as they often do big weddings and I'm sure have someone dedicated to such occasions. Google for the websites.
Failing that there are a few wedding 'shops' that might be able to help, 'I Love You' is one that comes to mind. No experience because I got married before the Twin Lotus et al were built. I'll ask around for you tomorrow though.

Any scuba diving operations off Khanom or in the area ??
Looking for an up and coming place to open a small shop, don't even care if I only dive once a week
I have been to Sichon several times but never got to snorkel or dive there as Sichon is rather quiet and not much going on at all
Olsen is there a Scuba Diving School there and if nt is there any type of demand even in a small way. ??
No scuba diving in Sichon or Khanom, the nearest is in Koh Samui.
I am sure a scuba diving business will do well in Khanom....we get more and more tourists coming every year.
Currently my friends are doing a snokeling trip to Koh Tan and Koh Mak just off Khanom....they could for soure also arrange something with scuba diving if you're interested??
What a load of rubbish. Very poor visibility. Khoa Plai Dam is slightly better but the whole area is not really suited to diving. Offshore on the islands or the west coast yes, but Khanom? What are you on?

No offence taken ......... just the gate!

Ride a 125 nowadays
Oh my... what happened to you?
Got married?
Good to see humour is still around.
Unfortunately had a serious argument with a lamp post.
Much safer on my little PCX.

Shipping in 30 foot container BKK HK or Singapore HK is a few hundred usd.
30 foot containers? Never seen one. 20', 40' and 45' yes.

what good points does the south have?
Urm, none. The north is much nicer.

Look on the base of the cans ..... all the info is there. My dog doesn't eat certain 'flavours' but wolfs down others. Expiry dates on all the cans I have.

Can't help you with Kenya but a few years ago I took my Mrs to South Africa, Swaziland and Malawi. No problems on coming back here - that's flying into directly into Thailand and another time via Singapore.

Nakhonsithammarat? - much better places to live in the south .... Phuket, Phangnga, Krabi, Songkhla and to a certain extent Trang and/or Satun. Nakhonsithammarat probably has more fatal road accidents than any other province in the country due to the locals complete selfishness and inability to observe the 'rules' of the road - and the beach resorts in NST are a long long way from being acceptable due partly to the total lack of any kind of infrastructure, totally over-rated. Don't believe all the hype you read on 'glossy' websites or magazines set up as an advertising front. Just ask the people who have lived there, been taken in and have/are returning home a lot wiser and a lot poorer leaving behind just empty overgrown dreams.

Not sure what you should do but it reminds me of something that happened a few years ago. I parked my old Tiger in a park while I took my dogs for a walk. Anyway, on returning both glass mirrors were missing! Nobody around so I was a bit perplexed. On looking around there was a troop of monkeys up in the trees on the hill and they had taken them! One cheeky bu@*er looked like it was trying to reflect the sun into my eyes too!

According to D, the bill included items such as water and chemist's supplies for 10 times the going street rate. D queried the most extreme price mark-ups.
.... and I wonder which hospital that was then? I have my ideas.
-
Over rated, over priced and over hyped.
Got to agree - bit of a tourist trap.
If you're intent on going and can get to/pas by Phangnga Town, there are a couple of places where you can do half or full day trips on smaller longtail boats. Because of their size they go through the mangroves and that is actually quite interesting. They also go to Koh Panyee and of Koh Tapu (007 island). M.T. Hotel in the centre of town for your tours. Much cheaper than going from either Krabi or Phuket. Ask for Hasim.

Straight down the Asia Highway, turn right at ThungSong and keep going. Easiest and quickest way.

First of all - to the OP. Better your child comes from a broken family than lives in one, is it not?
To the OP. Mate good on you for coming on here and telling the truth. The thing is with all these guys taking the piss about the writing. The same thing will be happening in there relelationship'S with there Thai partners but they wont admit it.8 OUT OF 10 Thai - Farang relelationships fail. But when they have kids i would say its more like 10 out 10 fail. ( how many thai - Farang familys with there own children who are 12 or over do you see on a day out ) i must have seen about 2 the whole time i have lived in thailand i have been here for 5 years ! )
I am to with Thai girl ( we have been together for 5 years now ) and we have a kid . Going ok so far but being honest i cant see us still together in 10 years. The culture thing is just to different. There will come a time were i will say i have had enough and hopefully if we to part ways can stay friends for are child's sake.
Most Thai - Farang relationships only works with weak and desrate farangs who will put up with anything just to stay with there thai partner. Most Farangs who can think and act for them selfs soon get fed up and just say enought is enough. I am yet to meet a Thai - Farang couple who have been together ( i mean lived together in Thailand , not with the guy just coming here for 2 months each year ) for more than 11 years is the longest i have seen, with my mate but they have just broke up. Apart from that its seems to be 7 or 8 years max.
I've been married to a wonderful woman. Married for touching 19 years, knew her for a couple before that and lived here for most of that time. Unfortunately, totally because of MY behaviour we are now separated. It's not always the local people who are at fault!

Pretty much any local temple should be able to help you out! Keep well away from the local/commercial places if you want an genuine tat!

Get a beach bar .... walk down to the beach after a few months trading, wrap whatever money you have in tissue paper, walk out as far as you can, drop your little packages into the sea and then walk back to the shore and retrieve them on the beach.
There's your answer and don't forget to put your name at the bottom of the list of all those people who have had the same idea.
Good luck!
(Being realistic!
)

Get off the island ...... not rocket science!

You pay for what you get ..... buy a cheap battery and it will last for 'x' amount of time. A genuine battery will last longer ...
I paid B4,500 for a brand new Vigo battery last year, Toyota price but I know there will be no problems for at least the next 3/4 years.
Up to you!

Remember B31 to the GBP and around B24.8 to the $. It's heading back to how it was 20 years ago. Exchange rates were more or less fixed then and it wasn't really until the big bubble burst in 1997 that rates went to they have been in the last 13 years.

7 Dead including an M4 student. Apparently the driver has gone over a bridge in Hatyai, 2 pickups had smashed together on the other side and the minibus driver had a choice of hitting the accident or turning away. The driver did the latter into a river, deeper than the mini-bus was high BUT he saved (went back - didn't do a runner) at least one person and he then presented himself to the local plod.
I'm not going to make any summarizations - accidents do happen.
Until the facts are fully known, I'll keep quiet.

If she's trying to drop something (anything?) into your drink, time to move on. You can never ever trust her again.
I for on, admire your restraint .....
Good luck!

If you've got plenty of time, the train is a nice way to travel (1st or 2nd class). If time is of an essence, flying only takes an hour or so.
