Milsim has two obstacle courses through which you can shoot competitively with your crowd with airsoft rifles and p...

Re: 3BB Internet Speed

I promised to revert as soon as the problem is fixed, but have tarried, sorry for that. The internet address on 3BB website is for a department that does not reply nor react to customer sent email! That took some finding out. However, once I got that sorted out things started to happen fast and effi...

Re: 3BB Internet Speed

I wrote to 3BB again on the 9th of July, but there has not been a reply to either the first or the second letter. So I phoned and got a promise of someone phoning me. And, lo and behold, I got a call, only it rang just once and then was terminated by the phoner. So they kept their promise: they phon...

Re: The Digital Surgery Slow Internet

The Internet (3B0 seems particularly slow over the last few days ( hin Lek fai area) - anybody else having this problem?

Re: Roadside restaurants, street food. Best of the best

Frequently I buy truly excellent pasta Carbonara or Bolognese from the gentleman in front of the small Tesco on 88th west. While his Carbonara is quite traditional his Bolognese is slightly more spicy than regularly. Very aptly so for Thai street food. It's been a few weeks, but I've kept your post...

Re: type O blood urgently required at Hua Hin Hospital

Is this O- or O+?

I hear the blood bank in HH Hospital only accepts blood on weekdays 08.00 - 16.00, is this true?

Re: Suspect "Police" house visit in Hua Hin

Same policemen as in my OP appeared at the home of one of the falangs living in a row-house. As they were trying to harass the falang occupant the lady owning the row of houses appeared and very, very loudly and in no uncertain terms told the police to clear out while they can. This is precisely wha...

Re: Suspect "Police" house visit in Hua Hin

The incident took place at roughly on the designated area. The environment on both occasions is less than filthy rich, so casing the joints is a remote possibility. Thailand is not a police state. All persons - farangs included - do have rights that the police must and do respect. Among these is the...

Suspect "Police" house visit in Hua Hin

Two men I know have both gotten a surprise visit from the police past two days in their house. The two ”policemen” enter in the house without the leave of the occupant, demand to see passports, visas, driving licenses and appear to write some sort of protocol of their visit. They do not speak englis...

Re: Time to re-shoe the truck

Some price indications you'll find at:

http://thaityre.com/en/

AFAIK B-quick has a habit of suggesting replacements on parts that just might need replacing. So use your own judgement.
