Seemingly normal

Lots of sandflies in Hua Hin

Use Google Earth to compare it with the other places you asked about.

You should be able to see that the beaches in Hua Hin are very ordinary indeed.

5 sick days a year is quite standard. Should know if you need more than that and shouldn't sign the contract accordingly.

Staff of a large International organisation in Bangkok get 6 days a year and most people think that is good going.

Delays around Swampy this morning due to army checks on vehicles

No

A "militia" ... man the guys at the Nation must be getting training from them LA times muppets

It is lovely. Is that a Thai bee? I never saw one like that in Asia

I'd get it back home. It is hard to get one without the squiggly Thai writing on it in Thailand.

Hi Hannah, good luck with the breast plants. I believe the good places to look are along Petchaburi Rd and that a nice set can be had for about 40,000 baht. A friend told me they do a very good job at that

Calling it a war zone is pushing the limits ... typical protest site is all it is

Bloody good breakfast to be had in there and some lurvelly serving ladies too

Not sure if it is so smart to be discussing adultery, especially around this very religious time of the year

I've been getting that and I'm on a 5 mb connection, slowest bloody site I've visited for a long time

Man you guys are a bit too serious for my liking

I heard the massage places inside the airport can arrange happy endings if requested. Can anyone confirm whether this is true or not?

I'd cancel, in fact any foreigner silly enough to be in country during these troubled times needs their head read

Is it good to be spreading rumours about the numbers of protesters hurt etc. Owners might want to be a bit more responsible

Slip a few extra thousand in as a tip and things will proceed much faster ... TiT

They had some in my local Tesco ... may I suggest asking the staff in there

Some good info here ... thanks

From what I heard it aint easy for paddies to get jobs teaching as they mostly look for native English speakers.

Might be worthwhile shelving that plan for a while.
