  1. Most in our village did a lot of hard playing on the Friday and Saturday before Monday. Include was the usual washing hands of old people which nearly everyone goes too.by Monday most to tired to party on.

  2. Near Sawang,

    On the other side of Sawang is Ban Ko Korn, which has on the site of the temple a purpose built building protecting one of the oldest stuppa's in Thailand.

    Inside is a small museum with bit's of bodies pottery etc dating back to the same period.

    Given these are all few days walk from Ban Chiang, not really surprising.

    The Ko Korn site building was built by a USA university, now seems long forgotten

  3. Many villages and towns have rocket festivals, even the small villages have great festivals, starts soon, and last for a number of months. The problem is finding ou where and when.

    Khon Kaen has a number around it, the TOT there "may" know.

    Nong Kai the same

  4. More than a decade ago I met one of the owners, I had no idea they had plans to make bikes, reason he connected with me was he wanted to add MP3 players into the bike, great little idea, didn't go anywhere, but he was thinking of trying to make cheap bikes interesting.

    Agree, sad to see them go, regardless what people think of them

  5. Works well

    I had a similar problem a few years back, I booked the Udon - Vientiane leg by the Nok Air bus.

    You even get a flight number.

    Worked fine as Air Canada wasn't going to let me fly, with that, they did.

    NOT the below.

    The airline will accept a flight booking from Bangkok to Vientiane.

    Bus tickets etc are not acceptable and can not be booked from Spain.

    Easy option is to book a hotel in Vientiane and print out the booking.

  6. Thanks Luba - greatly appreciated,

    Hi Guys, when you apply for a spouse visa in THailand, can you also still apply for tourist visa's while it's being processed? Given the year+ it takes to get the Visa, I'd be wanting the wife over in Australia before she gets the spouse visa

    Yes you can... We have been waiting for almost 10 months now and the wife has come over twice on tourist visa.
