Hi I have just recently purchased my first dslr camera a cannon 1000D with 2 lenses and I am really enjoying taking pictures. I am moving over to Phuket with my wife in march and just wondering if there is any photography groups or people who get together every now and then to take photos and help beginers to learn thanks for any help guys

i have travelled with them both ways gold coast to bkk and back and found them the same as any other airline besides the lack of tv but thats what you get for the price you pay, it just means you have more money to spend when you get there, only thing i didnt like was the fact from kl to bkk and back you could only take 15kgs and had to pay for each additional kg where as from gold coast to kl and back was 20kg

my partner and i (both australian) want to get married in phuket at the end of the year and we both are still a little confused about the whole process i have searched the forum but its mainly about a forigner marrying a thai not to forigners marrying each other in thailand

do we have to travel to bkk first to get all the documentation or can we do it in phuket?

some people say you can do it in a day is this really possible or not, we are planning to get married on the 30th december but will need to get documents before xmas, when do the places close down, how long before xmas

any other info that might help would really be appreciated thanks everyone

also watch rotational tyres as you can only rotate keeping them on the same side not opposite like just above

im a mechanic by trade and have not once rotated any of my cars tyres, if they are wearing unevenly something is wrong with the car, eg wheel alignment or tyre pressures are most common

rotating front to back will increse millage only if carrying heavy loads in a ute or similar but inflating the tyres to the correct pressure for the loads will almost cancel this situation out

i believe if you keep ontop of your tyre pressures and get wheel alignments when you start noticing your tyres wearing unevenly or even every 10,000kms you will be fine

i will be in patong staying in a hotel there for a couple weeks in october and i am wanting to do some muay thai boxing for some of the time, i have read about a great place in nai harn called sinbi muay thai gym, how long by taxi would it be and a rough price to pay

looking to do morning classes and if its a bit of a drive i may look for a closer place

thanks for any help everyone

im heading over to thailand in september-october and im wanting to get some work shirts and jumpers made over there

is bkk or phuket better for this, i will be in bkk for 3 days then returning back 20 days later and i will be in phuket for 12 days in between. reason i say these 2 places is i will be there the longest. i want to bring a work shirt over with me which is a polo with my business logo and name embroided onto the front and i want to get jumpers with big logos on the back

is this something that thai people can do in say 25 days or 12 days or do they need more time etc?

thanks for any help

is there a website or any pics of that on the web?

hi everyone, im heading over to thailand again in 6 months and wanted to find out the best place for white water rafting over there, last time we went from phuket onto the main land about a 2 hour drive i think and that was quite good but im keen to try another place this time

i like big rapids if there are different categories over there, the ones we went on were rating up to 4 and that was fun but im after something alittle more scary

would chiang mai have better white water rafting?

who has done it and where was it, also any pics would be awesome

thanks vaughn
