What Do People Want?

[donna]

OK. seonai has jumped onto the krabi forum and asked what you guys want to see there. so im asking the same here.

this forum seems to be a little slow, sooooo.... how can get get it up and going and give you the information you want to get from it?

ive noticed that there are lots of questions asking about long term accommodation, restaurants, etc, and i will see what i can do about this, but is there anything else you want to see here?

im gonna start posting some local news, but if there is anything you think we should specifically target here, please let me know.....

fire away people!

[Old Croc]

Congratulations to you and Seonai on your new status. I know you both love your parts of the world and will do your best to promote it.

[donna]

thanks old croc. i will do my best!

Things-to-do in phuket

[kasi]

I want to see jet-skis banned!

I want the morons in charge of public service to address in earnest the water shortage issues.

I want to see any tour bus which belches black smoke cut into scrap metal.

I want to see the young speed crazed motorbike riders grow a brain.(really wishful thinking!)

That will do for starters!

And maybe mufflers for the harleys and sport bikes.

[donna]

Wolfie - no worries. can be done with the help of people on this forum.

Kasi - hmmm...im just donna....not god!

This is my favourite self portrait.....

[steve w]

ohhhhhhhh no now i've got the horn

[donna]

[Patriot]

Obscure tradesmen/professionals aswell .... DONNA, how did you get on with the Chiro in Kata ? Is your neck sorted ??

[kc-phil]

How about a list of some expat resources.

For example:

Links and calendar for social/business organizations (lions club, chamber of commerce, etc.)

List of other regular social events around the island that aren't neccessarily TV exclusives.

Volunteer opportunities around the island? (can't sit around on the beach and drink beer every day, can we?)

[donna]

patriot - got the neck sorted. didnt end up going to the chiro. but its all fine now. thanks for asking!

will see what i can do about the obscure tradesmen but i need input from you guys too.

kc-phil - if you have any input to help me along, that would be great.

i am compiling a big, big list now of restaurants, sporting stuff, tradesmen, motoring stuff, hobbies etc....all hopefully to be posted soon, but its taking a lot of time for me to put it together.

between working and putting this together, my day is filled. in fact i am spending more time researching for TV at the moment than on my REAL work, so any input you guys can give would be VERY much appreciated.
