BB you can find location and directions in Google Maps.
Cheers.


Edit: Add pic.

I was just up near Wat Khao Noi today and thought it funny there are no billboards advertising this anywhere around. On closer inspection of the photo I see that it's a different Wat Khao Noi, not the one in Hua Hin. The poster shows it in amphur Panburi (ป่าณบุรี), but I couldn't find that in Googl...

Also amusing is that the English name doesn't reflect the Thai name. The Thai name is "เอส" which is pronounced like "ate", though there could be a case for transliterating it as "ais"; or maybe "ace"? So you probably won't hear any Thai trying to get their to...

BB I think your wife did really well to read the artists names after the 25th in the photo. However, I think there is some correction needed for the first 3 dates. Of course I may be wrong :-) 21 Nong Plaing Bata, Nong K Rsiam 22 Nong Fern Rsiam 23 Areed Rsiam. For location of Wat Khou Noi refer to ...

That would be Wat Bo Fai. It has a large pond full of fish of various types. When we last went a couple of years ago you could buy fish pellets to feed to the fish. Wat Smor Phrong is at B5 on the map - in the Smor Phrong area. Enter from the canal road into Soi Chonlapratan 26 (Soi Smor Phrong). Ov...

Definitely no need for a police report though.

Is this a new (paid for) service by the police? As far as I know driving licences are renewed at the land transport dept in Pranburi. Aren't they? I've never needed a medical for renewal either. But you do have to do the eye and reaction tests. And sit through that so called safety video. Might be w...

Khan Khlong is the canal road. Also known as Chonlapratan (or Chonpratan) Road. All the sois are now numbered: e.g. Chonlapratan Soi 1. The numbering starts from the far north of Hua Hin and continues down to Pae Mai. Even numbers on the west side of the road. There are certainly shops, such as conv...

The blue book is generally only for Thai registration of ownership and for Thai nationals who are registered at that address. Blue/Yellow books are not ownership registration documents but resident registration documents. They record, and prove, a resident's 'legal address' or 'official domicile'. ...

Lorenz are in Makro.

After 8 years it's probably time to treat yourself to a new laptop as Buksida has implied. However, you can check whether you have a problem with the laptop's graphics component by connecting to a tv or external monitor. If an external screen has no problem then it may be a problem with the laptop s...

Chrome is OK but I prefer firefox myself. One thing you can try is to set firefox back to its default state. Just type about:support in the address bar or go via help/troubleshooring information. This will display various bits of info, including prefernces that have been changed. There should also b...

Maybe check you don't have any forgotten proxy setting in Internet Explorer/Internet options/Connections/LAN Settings. If these are OK you could try using a different browser, if you haven't already done so.

due to overwhelming indifference these tapes have now been disposed of.

The 200 baht column refers to the cable phone service - Fixed Line Plus. Special offer for DOCSIS Internet applicants. I'm not sure whether that's an extra 200 baht/month or that's how much free phone call you get included for the 899 baht.
