"......To be able to start the new term in December, AIT plans to relocate classes temporarily to Stamford International University and Silpakorn University's Petchaburi Information Technology Campus in Cha-Am......" AIT = Asia Institute of Technology. Full story below. Pete :cheers: http:...

Frosts expected on northern mountaintops November 26, 2011 4:01 am Northern Thailand saw mercury drop one to two Celsius degree further yesterday, while frosts may appear at some mountain peaks. Tourists are expected to go for the cold winter with expected spending of over Bt1 billion in Thailand du...

Failing that, sling shots available everywhere. 10 meters shouldn't be that difficult and lacking proper stones, you could use golf balls which should scare them away permanently and probably give them a heart attack. Pete

Our pool leader put his on Stoke-Blackburn if I recall correctly. Gutsy move and it paid off. Really a crap shoot with the struggling teams week in and week out. Pete

A long time ago you could always trust that people were catching these bugs for eating with nets. Nowadays there could well be some unscrupulous people who use sprays to stun them. I have no proof but it's always in the back of my mind if I'm in the mood to snack on some. Pete

Well, I should have put the Banker on the Spurs yet again, instead of Arsenal. There goes about 3 weeks work up in flames. Pete

The locals like eating them, that's true.........as for, EDIT: Just FYI, maengda is also the Thai word for a pimp. Why so I've never received a clear explanation. Think it's because in nature the male bugs live off the back of the females and do sweet FA, hence the Thais calling a pimp by the same ...

tmg.jpg Did anyone see any of these on the wing in Hua Hin this past rainy season? They're a nice green colour when alive. I didn't see any alive and flying at all over here in Rayong and it's the first year in these parts that I haven't. I imagine they're now found in Issan and the Central area pr...

Is it broken? It takes a little longer than last year's competition to update, and like most IT systems, there have been a few teething problems. However, it generally works. As I've mentioned several times, it will not accept any password for me. Each and every try and each and every time it says ...

It is broken BB, and frustratingly so for some. I keep an open mind though until we see what happens next season. Pete

You still get that tingly feeling in your stomach Mags when you're close to arriving back? I still do and I can't explain it given the amount of ranting I do about many things here. Must be black magic! Pete

No, it's not good to have two leagues running per the sentiments expressed at the beginning of the season, and I agree with that. In essence, it's Buksida's call next year as he is the IKTS pool owner. I just can't show any loyalty to a bad computer program, which Talksports is. I still need to get ...

OK, I'm going to get this over with and archive the info here in case as a group we decide next season that Superbru is a better option than Talksport IKTS. 1) No changes after Picks are made. 2) No banker and no Insurance. 3) Scoring System, See: http://www.superbru.com/epl/how_to_play_scoring.asp ...

Concerning schools I've heard or read about a few options being considered. First are half day Saturday and full day Sunday classes. If that turns out to be the case, I pity those students as they'll burn out. Next is to cut the Songkran end of year break to one week or so only. This means they char...
