tangoll

Has anyone tried out ballroom dance (like waltz, tango, etc) at BIDA studio on 2nd floor of Peninsula Plaza on Rajdamri Road, next to Grand Hyatt?  I tried to find out a few other studios via Google, but it seems this BIDA is really the only game in Bangkok.  They want 8,000 baht as an initial purchase for 10 lessons, which compared to other cities (HK, London, etc) is not expensive, but if the instruction is of low quality, then no matter how low the charge, it's not worth it.  

I've seen some of the local dance talent at the Shangri-la Hotel Sunday afternoon tea dance in the lobby lounge,  but I don't know if any of the instructors from BIDA were there to dance.

Anyone have any experience with ballroom dance in Bangkok, or know of any instructor? I'm male, and have no partner in Bangkok, so need a female instructor that I can dance with, or a male instructor with a female assistant that I can dance with.

Thanks.

Hi, I have a question about adding a small 9,000 BTU split unit air con to an room which already has a larger aircon unit (about 18,000 BTU) cassette type installed in the ceiling but the existing unit is very loud at night when it's on during sleep, even at low fan.  The new A/C fan unit can be installed on the wall next to balcony and the condenser unit can be installed in the balcony which has a drain.  My question concerns the electrical line.  Can I just plug the line from the fan unit into a 2 pin plug socket normally used for a TV or floor lamp, or does the line have to go direct to a spare breaker/line at the switch box?  What if there are no more spare lines at the main switch box?  Does the condenser unit need its own electrical line/plug?  

The new A/C unit I'm thinking of getting is a Samsung inverter unit which I am told at low fan is only about 19 decibels, which is the lowest amongst the brands normally handled by Homepro -- Mitsubishi, LG, Hitachi, Panasonic, Daikin, etc.  I would only use the new unit during sleep, and even though small in BTU, should be sufficient to keep the room cool at night.

It would not really be practical to change the existing cassette type unit in the ceiling.
