Hiya fj709.

I use world wide currencies. I think best rates. You need to register with them.

Give them a look on the web.

Regards jb1.

Hiya Buckaroo.

I was over from England in Janurary this year. Managed to open an account with Bank of Bangkok. The only

Small problem i had was no permanent address. My girlfreind put her address forward problem solved. I would sugest

keep trying.

Best regards jb1.

Hi Ellis.

i want to go down that route as yet, as early days.

Hi JB1

Not sure if this will be any help to you but my wife recently bought some land in HH. We were prepared to just go to the land office and do the transfer (well by herself actually...didn't want to complicate matters by getting involved) but it became apparent that the seller wasn't being totally honest. She contacted a local lawyer who for 4000B came out to the land office and made sure that everything was done by the book. My wife was very impressed with his professional manner. I don't know if he speaks English but his name is Parkhum Sabma. His address is 1807 Chomsinth Rd, HH and phone numbers 032 512282, 513146, 01-9425797.

If your wife is Thai it shouldn't be a problem. I know there are others in HH but when they charge like wounded bulls!

Regards

Ellis

Hi Folks.

Does anyone know of a good, Thai english speaking property lawyer in Hua Hin. I need name and Email address.

I would be happy for any help. Cheers jb1.

Fresh Inn is a bonafide hotel, not a guesthouse. It's virtually new and directly opposite the Hilton. Nice place. Good location. And affordable.

Stayed at PP Villa from 6 Jan for 10 days rates 1,200bht, no guest charge, breakfast extra.

Also stayed there Sept 06 for a few days rate 900bht. very clean, comfortable hotel, freindly

staff, excellent.

Hope this helps jb1

How long has he been with this girl? I would never do anything with out a lawyer! Very unsafe!

Hi Adaminsamui. He's been with her for about 4 months.

Hi i've recently returned from a trip to Hua Hin. The purpose of trip to purchase a property. I met an english guy through a girl, who is having a house built through a Thai property developer. The land is regestered in his Thai girlfriends name, then leased to him. The house he has commisioned the developer to build. They have not used a solicitor at all. Any ideas on how safe or not this might be. As i am tempted myself. jb1

I would just like to say thanks for the great Calendar. Also to wish you all at Thaivisa and members, who help keep us all entertained through out the year a very happy NEW YEAR. Mine starts great I fly out to Hua Hin on New Years day. jb1

Hi all. Can anyone help. I arrive in Bangkok International airport 02 Jan 07 at 18.50hrs. I'm looking for ways of getting to Hua Hin. Taxi seems ok if a little pricey. Bus looks best option, time tables seem to vary from site to site. Has anyone made this journey and or can confirm times. Thanks jb1.
