Re: Upcoming general election fundamentally flawed: Human Rights Watch

Fantastic early poling results.

Pheu Thai and Move Forward expected to have the most first and second most votes.

A coalition would be the result the people will crave for.

Pete has done this before at least once, as have I and some others. Good idea if you ask me! :cheers:

Tor browser z-library still works fine for me though a little slow, but that Anna's Archive is a great little find lomu. Has worked fine for me for a few books.

Re: E-books and e-book readers

Looking at the wikipedia entry for zlibrary, I came across Anna's Archive as an alternative. Have just downloaded one book from there but have had no success afterwards although I haven't spent much time on the site.

Re: How Hot Does your House Stay Overnight

I have built 3 houses in my time in Hua Hin and my priorities were first to pick an area which has good breeze much of the day. I found that Hin Lek Fai within 3/4 klms of Black Mountain has worked well. The land size has never been less than a rai , and the house has loads of windows and doors on t...

Re: Dentist recommendation

Very soon, Dr. Nana won't be available for a while. She's pregnant and expecting her first child. She was telling me her story so I'm sure she won't mind me sharing it. She's pregnant by IVF. She was able to choose the sex. She had two girls implanted and one took and the other didn't. Quite amazin...
