Gedday Lynda. How are ya? Long time no see. Coming back over your way soon .. will you still be in Kuta in the next month or 2? Another big day at Nuries perhaps?

Sorry I just kinda liked the way Freo's pussy became a dancing princess all of a sudden. I thought the cat theme was working but now we are going all out dancing Indo style.

Reny )Mrs Sanurian)sent me a great shot of a guy in a river a while back I have been thinking about using it as my new avator to top Freo. Can I put it up without getting moderatated on?

Hi Dasha, I'm back in Sydney for the moment and won't return to Bali until November. If you're around then, give me a call. Phil or Reny will have my number.

As long as the "river guy" is not a full-frontal-nude, I don't see a problem. :roll:

Madness takes its toll. Please have exact change.

Kassie you should be able to use Telkomsel Flash wireless internet in Bali (see the post from frozzty). You will need to buy a wireless modem for about A$150 or upgrade your mobile phone to one that has HSDPA if you don't have one already.

Another alternative is to check and see if a neighbour has a wireless signal you can tap in to. I was able to do that the last time I was in Bali. You might be able to negotiate a good price, say IDR200,000 per month.

BTW a quick check on laptop prices in Mangga Dua Mall, Jakarta (the cheapest place to buy computers in Indonesia) shows that the prices are on average 10% cheaper than in Australia (including Toshiba Portege).

usually if you are going to have a problem with hardware with a laptop you will have it in the first few months, Toshiba is a good laptop and not expensive ,
I bought a local product AX100 12 months ago for 6 million, this toshiba cost 6.5 and has twice the memory, I could have a toshiba for 5.5 but was advised to go for this one....... why outlay for an expensive laptop when it will be outdated in 1-2 years
