For many it's a confidence thing that will take time to sort out. Right now she's feeling comfortable in an environment where her language skills are less of an issue and that's something she's willing to trade better wages for. Once she settles in and feels more comfortable in the community, and improves her English skills, she will be more motivated to find a better situation for herself. You just need to be patient with her because the issue to her is not money, but reducing the shock to her system as she integrates into UK society.

Dream World has had an indoor "Snow World", go sledding, snowball fights whatever, like forever - I took kids there eight years ago.

The phrase 'ability to excel' caught my bleary eye. I have my own opinion on that - as may many others.

I currently have a simple JVC car stereo that takes CDs with mp3 and wma. Believe I paid around 3,500 for it 6 years ago.

I'd like a similar one that has an iPhone slot. Any suggestions for one that is available in Thailand (Chiang Mai)?

I know about FM transmitters, but would prefer a stereo with direct connection.

Finally the Thai authorities have realised that the vast majority of Farangs leave their brains at the airport when they fly to Thailand.
With no brains, what do they need helmets for??
A good move, I will dispense with my helmet immediately.
