A colleague in my organisation had a similar problem. He booked a few nights at the Landmark for a Bangkok trip but cancelled when a state of emergency was declared. Asiarooms would not agree to a refund. I e-mailed them to say that the organisation would blacklist them if they did not relent (i.e. no more business from us). They would not budge and to the best of my knowledge we haven't used them since.

Wrong subforum

Quite often excellent deals on latestays.com. Of the present offers in Kata, in your price range, I would in Kata beach prefer Tropical garden, Sugar Palm or Kata Palm resort. But there are more excellent offers, some cheaper than the 1000 Baht you mention, and some just a little bit more.

I passed around 13.30 yesterday, and there were checks. They seemed to be checking mainly thais, i could pass unchecked.

I agree with HDRIDER. Pay up and get your own filter. Sorted.

I doubt getting even a water tank for rain water would be more than a couple thousand baht? It sure is good enough to shower.. hel_l my grandfather in canada showered with rain water for the past 35 years

even stronger, we are collecting the rainwster and use it as drinking water. No problems whatsoever

No reason to shout

Yes, if you booked the whole deal with Cathay Pacific, and they said you'd make the onward flight, I would also go to them for a refund of the flight you did not make.

Yes, it will, provided it is not locked.

Cheapest option, but to me not a recommended one, would probably be Mahan Air.

Your new here. I hope you are not asking because you are planning to open ANOTHER bar here.

Why do you want compensation? You booked the tickets too close together, own mistake.

Still, if you have cancellation insurance they will pay. But for some reason I guess you don't have that.

No, not on phuket, just all the major banks.

I have the same with my HP printer if i refill. It keeps printing though.

If i buy a new cartridge i never have this.

Either way no problem as long as printing is possible.

Much closer to home: parakiet Mani from Singapore made the correct prediction for a lot of games already. He predicts the Dutch will win.

I trust Mani this time

Paul already predicted the WC final result...........the champion is SPAIN.

They really do, that is kind of funny.

Anyway, I think Dutch supporters will find this article of interest though it may make you a bit angry --

He is also correct about Cruijff being at least partly responsible for the style of play of present Barcelona and Spain.

Paul already predicted the finals result, a win for The Netherlands.

So yes, I believe him.

NO...he did not (yet.......at this time when I'm writing) since Paul the Octopus will open one of the boxes at 11.00AM in Oberhausen - Germany; that's 4.00PM in Thailand.

Still, if his predicyion is the Dutch will win I believe in him.

Paul already predicted the finals result, a win for The Netherlands.

So yes, I believe him.

So what are the names of the sites you dove?

I meant abihol.

No problem with them, they were just not friendly or smiling. I'll give it another go though, the quality of the semmel was very good, next time try some other things.

If you had such a bad dive on Phi Phi, then I will make the same offer to you that I did to F1Fantaic. Let me take you diving and afterwards, see if you still prefer the tuk tuk beat down.

abihol market ( i hope i spelled that right) is a german bakery with strange hours that is located on the sai yuan turn from the road leading to rawai. (is it viset rd--idk!) it's just before the stoplight on the right hand side, behind the new little bus stop pavilion where the motorbike taxi drivers sit in the morning and next to a phone shop. if you stood in the parking lot of this place, 7-11 would be to your left. the place has great bread, a decent-sized menu, nice cheese and a freezer case filled with deli meats, etc. the apple streudel on the menu is to die for, as is the pepperoni bread. the thais who work here don't speak much english, so be patient with them and point at the menu. i have found that whenever i've had to wait for a take away order, they put a free pastry or bread in the bag as an "apology".

Open every day 07.00-16.00, Wednesday's closed.

Soccer has already caught on in the USA. This latest world cup sealed the deal. The USA is now fully engaged in this sport. It's about time.

I hope it will be an exciting match and that the best team may win.

Still very good WC for the Germans. Young team, but they played well and a lot more offensive than the german national team tends to do. Klinsman started that, and Loew continued, very good for the, Looks like they have a bright future.

Let's not forget Carlos Tevez.
