You're on the wrong forum - don't give up the day job!

You don't have an angle, you have a title. Not the same thing.

Might be a good idea to work out your subject first. The title usually comes last.

"A swinging article" would refer to style not subject.

"Young readership (18-45 yrs)..." well good luck on finding stuff that interests people both 18 and 45.

Go to Cha´am instead then!

LOL!

I`m starting to understand why Hua Hin Forum is rather slow.

Despite being thrown a last minute assignment and a total of 36 hrs in the region, I got my story

(& my salsa) and some magic photos in out-of-way- places that probably you locals don't even know about..... thanks for all your help!!!

Glad to see you made out. Last-minute assignments are the reporter's life...I was one for 20 years.

Irrespective, you can learn litle about Hua Hin from this forum - JK knows that. I'm amazed anyone still bothers?

We're hoping to change that Ollie... am happy to share what I learned if you're interested!!!

and some magic photos in out-of-way- places that probably you locals don't even know about.....

how can you assume that you have somehow managed to discover "magic out of the way places" that have remained strangely hidden to locals and residents.

"magic out of the way" places , (and there are many in the prajuap/phetchaburi area) are better off left unpublicised , left to be come upon accidently by those exploring the area.

especially if that publicity is in one of the throwaway magazines that live in the rack next to the toilet on aircraft and written by a "journalist" literally begging for the chance to give free plugs to local businesses.

you'd be better employed in benidorm or blackpool.......

selling timeshare!

oo-er!

Well, taxexile... nice chatting with you too! Most people I know actually think Hua Hin is a boring place. My challenge was to prove them wrong....

Since, my taxi-driver and other HH locals had no idea of the whereabouts of my pre-researched destinations - written in Thai - I can assume that my chosen topics were a little off-beat. With only one full day to get out there, find the places and get the shots required - time was of the essence.

I thank those expat locals who took the time to share local knowledge and give me assistance with the help of their friendly Thai staff. Indeed, a small mention in my feature is all I can do to help them promote business in the beautiful region in which they call home.

There are some jewels in the region and maybe a few adventurers will stumble upon them - after all, I'm not about to give directions ... it's all about discovery, ain't it?

Oh and btw... this is how I felt when I read your nasty, bitchy post: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-2228796688476060493

wot? you felt cooped up in a small metallic box with bars on it, being shown to billions of web users around the world without your consent?

That was pretty funny actually.

Well Khall,

Your comments are a little patronising! In one day, you did all there is to see, little known out of the way places? Now I'm hardly an expert on the area and I'm glad you took some advice from the local ex-pats, after all a lot have been there a long time. But what can you really achieve in a day?

I've been travelling there since 2000 and find and learn something new everytime I'm there. Had a car for 10 days in the area recently and still only skimmed the surface of the region - north, south and west.

If anyone thinks HH is boring, fine - let them. They can go somewhere else. Tha place is changing rapidly enough as it is.

Aaaaaw c'mon Ollie... it looks like it's you, me, johnnyk, kayo and "special guest" whatsisname... and none of us even live in Hua Hin. Oh well, hasta la vista ... btw did you notice that the landscape to the south seriously resembles the Yucatan Penisula of Mexico?

Anyways... thanks for all the input! Am writing up the story now, will be sure not to mention the murder stemming from the Rainbow Bar. Am sure there are plenty of positives in the region as it sure looked beautiful to me.

I must say, this thread has been so unhelpful... too bad!

Well johnnyk lives in the area I believe some of the time, sure he's bought a house here also taxexile!

As for getting around more than one hidden 'out-of-way place' and getting a good feel for them in one day, well I reckon that's pants. I can make my back garden here in HH look a beauty spot on film and it's also 'out-of-way'. 1 day and you are dictacting to Expats about so called 'out-of-way' no wonder there is so much junk on paper!
