Wireless Technology
Yet another trip down to the telephone office to see about getting broadband connected. This time, I've aparently got all the forms correctly filled in, and all the right types of ID with me! Result!
To be fair, it's amazing how patient the people down there are, given my lack of Thai. If anything, it was they who appeared to feel bad at not speaking English, rather than the other way round. Imagine the situation reversed, and the response a non-English speaking customer would get in your average UK office. They're nice people here.
Overcome by the joy of the moment, I recklessly splash out an extra 1,000 Baht to upgrade to a wireless modem. For those vital moments when you need to surf from the bath.
