Both Lemon and Lime are known as Manow here, even though no Thai person has ever seen a lemon.

I think not so. My missus has occasionally bought lemons at a market on the outskirts of town. Only once in a blue moon though.

Guess, I think that there is one more game still to go this week on the 30th (Sunderland and Liverpool). So the results in the sports club are for the last weeks game. :cheers: Steve Correct. the last game's on Weds, not Mon Guess. Look at the dates and get a diary out :oops: I've had a rotten mont...

Been following this with interest over the past few weeks. Toxin's got a special task force together to try and ensure that Sondhi dosn't break the gagging order imposed on him recently by a court prior to the huge defamation suit being brought by Mr T. Still didn't stop a huge crowd from watching S...

I notice that this office can renew non-immigrant visas. Since there are several types of non-immigrant visas, does anyone know whether this service includes all such visas, or just selected types. My particular visa is of the "Thai wife" variety. Does anyone have any experience of renewi...

Hey all I will be spending around 34 days in thailand and i believe i will need to extend my visa so could i do that in hua hin or will it be a trip to bangkok?? :cheers: You'd be best to check first. You should be OK to get a 10-14 day extension in BKK for 1,900 baht. I would reckon they'd do the ...

What has always amazed me is that whenever there is a particularly gory accident, beating or murder the TV cameras seem to be there before the police. So much for protecting the crime scene !!!! That's apparantly all coming to an end. Papers and tv will soon not be able to show these images if new ...

I'll stand corrected, Yung, but it was a tradition in my family, laid down ever since I was born by Farmor who was Norwegian. I believe her family followed it in Norway long before she moved as a teenager to Scotland. I'll check with my parents. The dish in Norwegian is Smeubreu (although I've undou...

Hi, Can someone pls update on the flooding situation. Is everything back to normalcy, roads passable? Is this normally the wettest period in HH? Plan to stay a week in the Hyatt in mid December, first time too. Should I change plans? Any info will be much appreciated. Thanks! You'll be fine. Bear i...

I think my bigest mistake at 24 was not having the self confidence and belief to realize the options that life holds. I thought that if I left my job for even three months that it would harm my career irreparably. That was 20 years ago. I think the current generation of 24 year olds I see in London...

I am looking for a place to stay feb 2006, as it is my first visit, recommended places would be useful, does anyone have an email for the K Place ? or any other suggestions, near the beach would be good as I am a kiteboarder and will have to carry my gear on and off the beach every day. Just an obs...

I heard that the owners of the mall were just a bit put out when they heard that a new shopping centre was opening in town. They tried to get it stopped. That was the rumour anyway. You'd have thought that they might have considered improving their establishment bearing in mind the impending competi...

Sounds like a sea urchin. Painful!! I've never seen one around HH. Not sure if I've just been lucky.

I'm gagging for some more news :guns: Not funny really. Very sinister and a severe blow to Thailand. Unfortunately, I can only think there's worse to come. "A survey" was carried out over the past couple of days by a BKK university asking how the Thai people felt about the freedom of the p...

A couple of Aussies and an Austrian, all of whom teach kiteboarding, came to HH earlier in the year for the first time. One's been back on two further occasions since. He reckons the conditions are great. There's also a kiteboarding club about a km down the beach and there always seem to be a good f...

Well, by 22, I'd done the education thing - school, university and law school. Travelled for a year and fell into publishing in London. By 24, I had a decent job. By 28 or so, it was even better. Lots of girlfriends, wining, dining, big holidays and then bought my house in London. The next 12 years ...
