Re: Int. driving licence for a thai

The TW and I will be there in August and i hope to get an International License for her then.

I have been told you can only get them in Bangkok. Where? I am not too sure. Perhaps some one more learned than I can tell as more.

Cheers

Re: Night Market Get Together

Does lack of response to my post mean that 1. No one goes to the night market for beers each month anymore? #-o 2. It is now such a large group you don't have a room for me? :-k 3. It is now a sub group of the Masons and I need to be invited by two members and eat live gold fish to join? [-( 4. No o...

Re: Night Market Get Together

Hi all,

I am finally getting back to Udon arriving the 29th of July 2009. :lol: \:D/

I was wondering if you guys still meet at the night market and if so when then next meeting after the 29th was.

Also where abouts the Night Market is. A mp grid reference would be good.

Cheers

Re: I would like insight as to Australia

As for the original post. I love Australia particularly Adelaide. It does not get too cold. It has a few really hot days, but they are dry and not humid. Anyway that's what we have air con for. The traffic is easy. The air is clean, the wages are good. And although they say that housing is expensive...

Re: I would like insight as to Australia

For starters I am from Adelaide, which has a high population of English, Italians and Greeks. I have recently start to see more people from African countries roaming the street. And personally i think this is a good thing. I like a multicultural society. But I do not like it if they are unable to sp...

Re: Socialism vs Capitalism

I think you will find the post about people living America was from the point they (America) are the 114th happiest :lol: nation in the world.

So if Capitalism is so successful why are they not the happiest nation or at least in the top 10?

Re: What does your gf or wife think about Falang land?

My wife now lives with me in Australia, has done for 2 years. She is quite settled and says she would like to stay in Australia for the rest of her live. Typical, the original plan was for me to retire in Udon in 10 years time. Now that's out the window. I can not afford to retire now for 25 year du...

Re: Cost of Living Information - Udon Thani

TW, new baby and me are coming over in August. I have told TW that she will be getting 1000 Baht/day. I will have 500 Baht a day. She asked what if she need more than 1000 baht on a particular day? I told her she does not have to spend the 1000Baht/Day all in 1 day. If she only spends 200 baht the d...

Re: Latest Windows Download

Motasi has said it all. I use firefox and if I did not support so many people using WIN XP I would be using SuSe Linux. Vista is a clunky piece of ****. I think windows 7 will be better. At the end of the day windows XP will work fine for 90% of people. So why upgrade! I still know people running wi...

Re: The Internet

The reason people are not buying so many news papers is they are full of adds and generally full of **** reports. IMO journalists should report the facts. Most now-a-days put too much of there own opinion on it or they are quote sooo much from one company it ends up being a advertisement for them. M...

Re: The Internet

O/T You are obviously very aware of all the jobs need to supply people needed at a shopping center. But you are lacking in the IT requires to host a on-line sales web site. It takes a little more than 3/4 people to provide you with an on-line shop. Let me just quote a few. You are correct you need a...

My T/W who is living with me in OZ, downloads all the Thai Serials from You Tube. I had to raise my download limit to 25gb to make it usable.

It must have some thing to do with the position of the moon or something. Coz my wife is in her moody period too. It was hard to start with, but now i just act like nothing happening.
