@ marinediscoking;

Dont know about wholesale or supermarkets. Just had a draft Carlsberg at Robin Hood Pub (suk soi 33/1) few weeks ago and I know other pubs do bottles. pint of draft about 200 baht and a bottle for 130. The new Royal Oak (formerly Bulls Head) has got it on tap as well.

Carlsberg draught has been available in most English/Irish pubs in Bangkok for the last 6 to 7 months if I am not mistaken. Bottled Carlsberg already for 2 - 3 months.

Asahi is Japanese, not Chinese

My 2 cents: friend of mine went to immigration Chaengwattana with a similar story and 20K in the pocket, this was about 2 months ago, he was send away with the message that he needed to clear overstay at borders.

Looks like immigration doesn't accept overstay clearance at their office

They don't like the common places where everybody goes and is flooded daily with couples and photographers.

Any nice, out of the way. off the beaten track are welcomed.

Scots use the word "Wii" quite often in front of a person "wii technician", "wii kiwi bloke" as far as I know, so that should be the punchline "Wii bastard" and the joke is related to the nintendo Wii. Hope this helps

thanks all for the reply's.

I am on extension of stay. Im aware of the procedures, just wonder wether the actual cqncellation is;

A) always necessary or can we wait untill we leave the country, in order to apply for the new one, and....

can it be cancelled at another immigration office other then where the initial extension of 1 year was done.

Thanks

I am changing jobs soon and just wonder if a cancellation of the current non b is always necessary and if so, only at the actual immigration office where it was issued, or can we do it at border/airport when we leave to apply for the new one?

And if so, if the visa was issued at chiang mai for example, can it be cancelled at phuket or bangkok if the situation would require so, or can it be only cancelled at immigration where it was issued in the first place?

suggest looking at townhouse/house instead.

Hi,

Did you find any? looking for similar offers.

thanks

Looking for house/townhouse for rent, not over 12,000. Close to BTS/MRT not required but would be convenient.

Will consider any location, long term rent no problem.

Should have some basic furniture, patio or garden and aircon in bedroom.

prefer quiet soi.

Thanks

While visiting England, George W. Bush is invited to tea with the Queen. He asks her what her leadership philosophy is. She says that it is to surround herself with intelligent people. He asks how she knows if they're intelligent.

"I do so by asking them the right questions," says the Queen. "Allow me to demonstrate."

She phones Tony Blair and says, "Mr. Prime Minister. Please answer this question: Your mother has a child, and your father has a child, and this child is not your brother or sister. Who is it?"

Tony Blair responds, "It's me, ma'am."

"Correct. Thank you and good-bye, sir," says the Queen. She hangs up and says, "Did you get that, Mr. Bush?"

"Yes ma'am. Thanks a lot. I'll definitely be using that!"

Upon returning to Washington, he decides he'd better put the Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee to the test. He summons Jesse Helms to the White House and says, "Senator Helms, I wonder if you can answer a question for me."

"Why, of course, sir. What's on your mind?"

"Uh, your mother has a child, and your father has a child, and this child is not your brother or your sister. Who is it?"

Helms hems and haws and finally asks, "Can I think about it and get back to you?" Bush agrees, and Helms leaves. He immediately calls a meeting of other senior senators, and they puzzle over the question for several hours, but nobody can come up with an answer. Finally, in desperation, Helms calls Colin Powell at the State Department and explains his problem.

"Now look here Colin Powell, your mother has a child, and your father has a child, and this child is not your brother, or your sister. Who is it?" Powell answers immediately, "It's me, of course, you dumb ass." Much relieved, Helms rushes back to the White House and exclaims, "I know the answer, sir! I know who it is! It's Colin Powell!" And Bush replies in disgust, "Wrong, you dumb ass, It's Tony Blair!"

Three Texas plastic surgeons were playing golf together and discussing surgeries they had performed.

One of them said, "I'm the best plastic surgeon in Texas. A concert pianist lost 7 fingers in an accident, I reattached them, and 8 months later he performed a private concert for the Queen of England."

One of the others said. "That's nothing. A young man lost both arms and legs in an accident, I reattached them, and 2 years later he won a gold medal in 5 field events in the Olympics."

The third surgeon said, "You guys are amateurs. Several years ago a cowboy who was high on cocaine and alcohol rode a horse head-on into a train traveling 80 miles an hour. All I had left to work with was the horse's ass and a cowboy hat. Now he's president of the United States."

Also Ford Sukhumvit 62 accepts 25% downpayment from foreigners and you dont need a Thai guarentee.

A man walks up to the bar, and speaks to the bartender.

"I bet you $500 that I can piss in this cup from across the

room." The bartender looks at the man like he was nuts

and says with a laugh, "Ooook buddy. You got a deal."

So the man walks over to the other side of the room, pulls

down his zipper and just lets it fly. Piss goes everywhere;

on the bar, on customers, all over the bartender, but not a

drop lands in the cup. The man walks back over to the

bartender. The bartender says, "Ha ha ha. Well pay up."

So the man pays him, turns around and begins to laugh

hysterically. The bartender asks, "You just lost $500, why

are you laughing?" The man turns around and says to the

bartender, "Well you see that man over there." The

bartender says, "Yeah." He replies, "Well, I bet him

$10,000 that I could piss all over your bar and you, and

that you would be happy and laugh about it!"

This joke is so well told by Quentin Tarantino in his movie "Desperado"!

I have a Toyota yaris for rent/sale. Year 2006. See PM for details.

I never did and I probably never will. Anyway it WAS painless and worked like a miracle! Nothing to do with eye correction hehe

What was it that you did, use laser techniques to stop smoking? What are some of the reasons you wouldn't do it again?

I was referring to putting my hand on a light bulb

I dont need to do laser treatment again cause I already quit smoking

Forgot to mention that I left the clinic feeling a sense of "high" similar to the effects of smoking a joint but not as strong as that probably for about a good 5-8 hours after the treatment

I never heard of this before until reading a little online about the subject. I was curious since some of my past employment opportunities involved working with lasers. Reading the title of this post I was under the assumption that they used the laser to burn out your eyesight then you couldn't see to find your cigarettes anymore...

I am not too keen on the use of lasers for medical purposes at this point in time although some of my friends have had their eyesight fixed with the Lastic laser surgery techniques and had great results. I guess when I heard the USA Surgeon General (who wore glasses) in an interview once be asked if he would use this surgery to correct his eyesight his response was not until a later time in his life after they have had a chance to 'work out all the bugs.'

Now here is a quote from a website that performs the laser technique to refrain from smoking:

"How It Works

The soft laser works to produce a light beam of high wavelength and low energy. The reason the soft laser does not burn is that it is no more powerful than a 60 watt light bulb. LaserCare applies this beam to specific meridian and ear points. Soft laser therapy is painless. Read some of our testimonials about the stop smoking laser therapy treatment."

I don't know about you but have you ever put your hand on a 60 watt light after it had been on for a while?

I never did and I probably never will. Anyway it WAS painless and worked like a miracle! Nothing to do with eye correction hehe
