iPhone 5 official availability in Thailand is just another 1-2 months away. Wait la.

Confession, I don't see any diff between the 4 and 5. Screen wise no difference only longer but not wider so cannot say its bigger. The only thing I really like about the 5 is the connection which is much easier to use but this does not improve the function.

What's with your Chiangmai's life? You moved there?

Retired from previous uniformed job young then given another job to top up ATM. Bought a condo in CM immediately after first retirement and now spending 5-6 times a year with wife there whenever there is a long weekend holiday in Singapore. This week here and will be interesting because we will be moving around to Phayao and Chiang Rai. The back to CM. Yes I read your post too that you travel to north of Thailand too.

Nice choice CNX, laid back place -good for you. My plans to watch the sunset there too, but kns my CPF is held to ransom and not helping. Must ask Chon for cleaner job in his new MP there. Or even driver for his limo fleet.:o

My Lanna itch needs a good scratch, looking at post xmas

Beer for hang over is a tested proven (though not scientifically) cure for hang over, however side effects include more drinking thus another round of hang over.

I suppose this is what they call a vicious cycle? :biggrin:

wah lau eh!! freaking expensive!! u sure got the dough bro!!

knn its Thai baht la not dollar la. Anyway this placed used to me 25% more expensive now due to competition outside Sukhumvit area so they lan lan. This is why I seldom come here last time used to dine there at least twice a month. Wine I Love You and Bacco I posted before is way cheaper with similar quality.
