Guess,

Apologies, but your e-mail service won't accept the truth. You'll just have to imagine what the video clip would have said:

Norseman,

Thanks for the update. I hope you don't mind me asking, but is that fact, or still hearsay at the moment?

No way Sure, there are some bad decisions, but then that's all part of the "game" isn't it? It allows referees to fall into the temptation of making a quick buck. You are certainly not trying to tell me that so many bad decisions have been accidental. FIFA pick the best of the best referee...

My guess is that England will join Ukraine tomorrow Been dreaming again Guess? Or just wishful thinking? The almighty power and skill of the Italians overwhelmed the newest nation ever to reach the last eight. You mean that Italy got a lucky draw (was it luck, or was it paid for?) Whereas the Super...

Randy said: Why oh why do they not have a forth official (video ref) They already have 5 refs at each World Cup match. You are advocating a 6th official. However, I do support this move. Maybe the 6th official could do away with the need for the 4th and 5th official.............thinks...if this tre...

One of the locals would be best to confirm this, but it tends to get busy from mid-December for 3 to 4 months.

Yes, of course its possible by boat, its possible by rickshaw as well, but do you really want to go through the pain, grief and cost of chartering a boat?

Taxi or a bus/taxi/bus or train combination are the only real cost effective alternatives.

Harry,

Your best bet is to get to Hua Hin, book in to a hotel for a couple of nights and look around. So long as its not peak season, there's always plenty to rent.

Its hard to recommend because your choice might not be mine and vice versa, and you are not quoting a price range.
