GRAND NATIONAL TODAY

Hi :D ,

It's the Grand National today, will it be shown on any of the TV channels here in Hua Hin? If not what's the chances of it being shown in some of the bars downtown, maybe Billy's Bar?

Thanks in anticipation of any helpful replies!

:cheers: :cheers: :cheers:

Re: connecting to wireless networks?

Re: Chang Beer

I go for chang every time and certainly enjoy a bottle or three most days, but sometimes my counting is not very good :naughty: One of the many things I like about chang beer is the lack of a hangover the next day :shock: Back in the UK I used to suffer from bad hangovers from most beers, or any alc...

Re: connecting to wireless networks?

I have a wi-fi (Dlink router) but unfortunately I do not remember the password so can't use it. I can with cable connections of course.

Is there some way that I can reset the password without knowing the existing one?

Any help would be appreciated.

Re: International Call Access Numbers

My wife bought a pre pay sim (true move) for 249 baht and it gives international calls to UK, USA, Canada, Australia, and many others for 1 (one) Baht per minute :shock: She has to enter 00600 before the international code i.e. UK would be 00600 44 ....

Re: Panthip Plaza Bangkok - The Computer Zone

This is one of my favourite places (Pantip Plaza) when we're spending time in Bangkok. As well as getting good prices for ink etc. I love sitting watching the world go by. At the restaurant on the 2nd floor, if you get a seat overlooking the ground floor etc it's a great viewing position where you c...

Re: Electricity and water bills

Thanks icebear, Can you just clarify, are your directions coming from the North i.e. Cha-Am/Bangkok or from the South i.e Khao Takiab/Pranburi?

Also is there a name above the shop/place to help?

Thanks

Don :cheers: :cheers:

Electricity and water bills

Hi apologies if this has been covered previously and I'm sure it probably has - but I can't narrow the search down below 751 possibilities :oops: :cuss: Anyway, I'm keeping an eye on a friends place and there is an electricity bill and a water bill to be paid.
