Thanks guys. That Eagle GPS shop looks really expensive. 10K baht for stuff that should be 3K to 5K. Sure there must be BKK outlets serving the local population .....

lol your concerned with price when you talking about your Sons safety and well being.

have fun it is only way to go using a flash drive.

I beg to differ, Streaming over wifi is the way to go.

I would be suprised in this day and age to not be able to buy a DVD payer that plays everything.

Only drivers holding a 5 year licence are entitled to an International licence. A five year visa is granted (I am still relating to foreigners) in the case where the applicant has a non immigrant or a permanent resident's status

Whats this 5yr visa you speak of and whats it got to do with a Thai IDP ???

And the reference to an international driving license, i was under the impression its an international driving permit.

Dumb Question, how does one fly a plane randomly around the world and stop at an airport to refuel, does it work the same as if i was pulling my pickup into whatever petrol station to fill up with fuel ??

If on the East side, Banglamung Station would be in charge.

Thanks for the added info, i would never have thought to go there (if the shit went down).

If they come thru the roof once in the roof cavity they will enter via the manhole, im sure this could be wired up to the mains power in such a fashion that the wont come thru alive.

Okies, my home office gets lots of sun thru the window from around mid morning till mid afternoon and is rather unbearable (even with curtains closed) and hence iam forced to turn on the air conditioning when in reality a fan would/should suffice.

anyone know of a local business that can tint windows and at what approx price, window would be approx 6ft by 4ft (double slide).

EDIT: title should read residential not commercial, can a mod please change.

heading out of Pattaya towards the 36, last set of traffic lights before the Banglamung Police station (bout 700 metres before) on the left is a Chanderly ( I believe it is anyways)

If finance companies wont touch scooters why are there so many at the repo auctions, are the dealers repossessing and sending the scoots to the auctions ??

If the book is in your name i wouldn't bother making the repayments, you already own it !!!

On the occasions Ive called the Tourist Police Ive never managed to get anyone to answer.

Best bet is to head into the Soi9 Police station (beach road end) and report the break-in directly, there will be a counter there manned by an Tourist Police officer, he will be able to help from there.

Good luck on getting the laptop back.

In fact I think I'm exactly the kind of long term resident the government wants.

Considering the constant changes to visa's and what not i was under the impression the gumbyment dont want any long term residents.

Hi,

I have the same issue at work using IE, is very annoying.

What school do you attend KayT.

What sort of scrooge googles the power consumption of chrissy tree lights ??

If your going to Brisbane, buy billy a bottle of red he will love you !!!

No idea then im afraid, do you have a windows disc, if so whack it in and do a repair.

is it an acer laptop by chance, reason i ask is i had my acer lappy battery die on me whilst it was in use, just went poof.....no warning.

I had to do a re-install, it appeared to have lost the bootloader.

Try starting it in safe mode and doing a restore back to the last restore point.

Case69, Iam on the 8mb plan, its fantastic, my mate who lives approx 500metres away (next village both of us are in east Pattaya) also has the 8mb plan, he is 110% crap.....seems to be a lottery on quality.

Call Kooky on ********, she will come to you, speaks good English as well.

4x4exo do a coil over conversion for the Ford Everest, it might be a viable retro fit into the Ranger, one of our customers had it fitted to his Everest, the change in ride comfort was reputed to be a world away from the harsh factory leaf springs.

Liberty computers on 3rd road, don't go anywhere near them they charge double than most of the shop around pattaya, FACT

Thanks for that, ive never been in there but i know to avoid now.
