Hi thanks for the responses,

Air Conditioning Unit Maintenance & Re gassing

Hi
One of my Samsung A/C units has started to blow out warm air not cold. I think it needs re gassing and probably a service. Can anyone recommend someone in Hua Hin who is competent, reasonable and can speak English?
Thanks,

Exchanging Money

Don't look at the UK bank rates go onto a Thai Bank site or the bank of Thailand to do a comparison. Lloyds/TSB will give you 57.39 but Kasikornbank will give you 62.05.

Avalon Development - Toledo Info

Hi,
I am currently semi retired and living in the UK. I have invested in a property on the Avalon development. Can anyone give me a low down on the development, quality, amenities and things I should be considering or anything that would be of general interest?
