Gold and Thai Gold?

What is the difference between the gold I see at the "red colored " gold shops I see around and the gold that is available in other parts of the world. The gold here seems to be more yellow. Is this a more pure and therefore more expensive gold?

When burglaries do take place, do the police in HH respond quickly? Any experiences on the effectiveness of the police in catching the thugs and returning the stolen goods?

New Foothpaths

I've noticed that the footpaths are being replaced on some of the main streets. I'm noticing a line of pavers running down the full length of the sidewalk, but sort of … off center. The pavers are yellow and have speed bumps all over them. What is this all about?

MAC or PC for video editing?

I'm going to Pantip to buy my lady a computer. She loves making videos and editing them on her PC at work. She says that Windows (Window MovieMaker with Service pack 2) now has a better movie editing program than the MAC offers. Could this be true? I've heard that MAC is the best.

Where to rent a clean motorbike?

Is there a good place to rent a motorbike monthly?

I've rented from a couple of places and I end up returning the bikes early because of mechanical brakedowns. I got spoilt on Koh Samui where I could rent a nearly new, low milage motorbike for 2K baht per month. Any suggestions?
