Be careful not to respond to a text-message purporting to come from your Thai phone company. The message says that your credit is running low and instructs you to call a fake recharge number.
My girlfriend received one yesterday and, of course, it was a scam. The spoofed text-message was designed to trick her into dialling a premium rate number set up by criminals. Fortunately, she didn’t fall for it but I’m sure that many others did.

The BBC’s iPlayer offers real UK TV over the Internet but not to viewers overseas. You can unblock it quite easily, however, and get ITV, Channel 4 and Channel 5 too, not to mention Hulu.
I live in Bangkok but, tonight, I’ll be watching three episodes of Dr Who back-to-back from behind the sofa.
BBC iPlayer allows viewers to watch, on demand, almost any BBC TV show screened within the last seven days. Hosted on the BBC website, it works very much like YouTube. Video is streamed at anything up to full HD quality so it’s not confined to some crappy little window on your monitor. BBC iPlayer is big-screen entertainment.
