i thought for your 800,000 b it had to be "instant access" and a 1 year term deposit didn't qualify ?

is that true ??

Looks ok for an add-on - does it work well? Where did you buy and for how much?

I'm just dusting off my copy of "the king's new clothes".................

The biggest I have seen here was nearly 300sqm and very nice it was too, complete with a private pool on the wrap-around terrace.

I was very tempted to take it myself but I probably would have felt a bit silly in it on my own.

Oh to be a shilling behind K K ..........

I have Five Samsung 55" 6 Series in the office that run 12 x 7 without any problem

Really ?? Bloke down our way has got Six - including one in the dog's Kennel..........

If all the thousands of "for-rent" motorbikes were removed from the areas around Beach Rd and 2nd Road there would be plenty of room for parking and stopping.

...Gets my vote for "post of the week"............

I have tried Ram Indian

Bloke down our way went there and said it was good...particularly liked their parting comment - "Ram bam, thank you man".......

.......i'm waiting till Jingy rocks up and gives two penneth............

Bloke down our way made the mistake of going to a recommended restaurant without getting the nod from Jingy and was sick as a dog all week.....

Why take the risk i say ?

Speak for yourself p.broke...and let 'us guy's' decide for ourselves what 'we' like...

Remember flared trousers and how smart you felt in them at the time and years later you looked at photos of yourself......enough said.

stick me down on the fugly vote please.

i wouldn't be seen dead on one.

After almost a 3 year wait I have managed to purchase a unit in Baan Amphur. Still over 30 names eager to purchase. Not all condos are the rubbish you see in Jomtien or parts of BKK. Many are desirable and well sought after even if the mythical bubble bursts

so let me get this right.......there are 29 people on a waiting list to buy re-sale on a condo development and another bloke rocks up and is interested, only to be told that there is nothing available - but so desperate he adds his name to the list......

the place is so brilliant so no one ever sells and people towards the end of the list may never get a look in.....

if thats true, I'm a jam doughnut with cream on top.........

I actually saw one advertised at 12mSq in one of the developments.

My master bedroom en-suite is bigger than that. Much bigger than that. Couldn't imagine living in it though

bloke down our ways en suite is much larger than yours.......claims to have the largest on the estate...

Bloke no longer down our way lives in Gornal...and loves it apparently.....

I just want to know which airline is selling business class seats to UK for only 65k Baht ?

I usually fly Emirates and they haven't been less than 100k for 6 or more years.

A quick glance at Skyscanner should bring up the 65KB tickets (priced in GBP). Also tickets at 75KB (equiv) with another airline. I had no problem.

I have also seen Emirates and Qatar and Etihad at under 80KB (equiv) from time to time, but never at a time when I actually wanted to buy a ticket.

Let it go KK, let it go..........

Bloke down our way's missus knows everything...i'll nip down and ask her......

back in a bit....

There can be little doubt that condo prices here are vastly overinflated. Hard to see how they can possibly stay so high indefinitely.

Personally I bought my condo in the knowledge that it was somewhat overpriced because it is one of the very few I have seen that I like, and because even if it halves in value I will still want to live in it.

Of course if Thailand changes the retirement extension rules and I have to move to Cambodia or Costa Rica or wherever then I may be out a couple of million Baht on my condo and I may cry into my beer for a day or two about that before forgetting about it. Even including my car and my retirement extension deposit and my condo all my Thai holdings only represent a few % of my net worth, so no big deal.

But if I had put my life savings into off-plan condo investments here I would be sh*tting myself now.

So you are well off and won't be too fussed about losing a few mil on your property, but you are forever on here complaining about the price of a bottle of water, amongst other things?

..........i think that could well be a contender for "reply of the month".............

......Bloke down our way has slung his car radio out, and now and just uses his 8 track....loves it......

i have been fined twice at Hua Hin but that pipe was loud. They did not fine me with another aftermarket pipe at Hua Hin last time as they said it is not that loud and let me go. So, riding here for long years and fined only two times.

So, as long as it is not very loud, it should be fine but laws say, exhaust needs a TIS stamp to be legal on roads.

Stickers/vinyls no problems.

nice bike you are getting!

you forgot to mention that "loud pipes save lives" - or was it "loud pipes make people you pass think yer a chump" - can't remember which.....

.........and they laughed when i started downloading torrents.............

Most torrent sites tell you not to use utorrent 3.4.1 as its unstable but to use an earlier version such as 2.2

bloke down our way swears by 1.8.2

Bloke down our way's got a large chopper....reccons its more trouble than its worth..................

what is the reason to keep an age limit above 40?

To keep out the "loud pipes save lives" brigade.........

I just PM you

thank you...but i'm not sure where he got the chopper from......

..the world's gone \\mad...its a (3 wheel) scooter, for gord's sake

........what about if you've got a large chopper - would that be a problem ??
