Anyone know of where to find a nice holiday cottage for a last minute weekend away? Need somewhere for Friday October 19th until the Sunday or possibly the Monday, within about 2 hrs drive of London. Only needs to sleep 2 to 4 people.

Having a nightmare trying to find anything which is available and not stupidly expensive....just want a quiet weekend away!

I'm moving to Oklahoma in 2days and I've heard so many mixed things about it. Can someone please help me out by telling me anything you know about the schools, shopping, neighborhoods, anything you know. I'm moving to a city near Tinker Air Force Base. I'm not sure what city yet, I'm thinking maybe Norman. If you know any thing about this area please feel free to tell me. Good or bad.

From the Thai-language press: Red light areas in Bangkok in olden days - May 31, 2005

This article was written by Mr. Jaroon Wattanasin who picked up some part from two books, Cheewit Jak Ngao Vela and Sanim Dokmai, Cheewit Jing Nai Mum Mued Khong Ying Thai.

Prostitution originated in Mesopotamia, but in Thailand some part of the law in the U-thong era 628 years ago mentioned prostitutes. They lived in a market outside of the palace wall and included Chinese.

At the end of the King Rama IV, Rattanakosin Era, some part of the bill for protection from diseases mentioned “there should be a lamp for the symbol in front of the house [brothel],” but it did not specific the color. It is assumed that green was used because it is associated with officers. That was the first law controlling prostitutes to follow the law. After that people called brothels a “green lamp place “ and called the prostitute a “lady of the green lamp.”

Sumpeng was not only a neighborhood for Chinese at the beginning of the Rattanakosin era, but also a prostitute area which is why we have the abusive word calling a bad woman e Sumpeng. The Chinese called Chinese prostitutes yumsha.

The prostitute areas in the Rama IV Road area--before WWII--were at Tao Lane, Rong Yai Fang, Rong Mae Kleeb, and Rong Mae Tao. Yai Fang was a kind procuress. She donated money to build Wat Kanikaphon and Mae Kleeb built Wat Kunmatuyaram.
Prostitutes were at Yan Sumpeng, Suaniem Lane, Vegkhi Lane, Rong Kome Lane, Poe Lane, Yuan Lane or Annam Lane (for Cambodians and Annams), Sapan Lek, Sapan Than, Mor Lane, Vorrajak, Tanon Dinsor (Dinsor Road), 22 July Circus, Rongmuang Road, Mahanak intersection, Bobae, Sapan Khao, Nang Loeng, Banglampoo. Chinese, foreign, and hi-class Japanese were at hotels in Sipraya and Sruang.

Before 1957, there were lots of brothels built of which the most famous were at Praeng Supprasart, Brahman monastery, Giant Swing, Brothel Khai lane, brothel in front of Huayrong, Sapanthan, Brothel Banglumpoo, Brothel Sapanyao, Nangloeng, Sukhumvit Soi Klang and Soi Ruamrudee. Besides, there were many prostitutes who paddled around in boats at Chaloemlok Bridge, Pratoonam

We dont really want to go shopping - mostly sightseeing. Can anyone recommend somewhere nice/interesting to visit?

Also, I was going to park in Phoenix park and travel on the Luas maybe. How long can you leave your car in the Phoenix Park? Do they close the gates at a certain time?

My budget is about $30 per night and I would like a funky modern place to eat, preferably with breakfast included.

I am in Lima for three nights en-route to Cajamraca. Would like to do a bit of sightseeing so either close to the sights, or easy transport links would be good.

Also a lone female so I have to take account of that, so the area needs to be safe for lone women.

I'd like to know what the cost of living is in Peru (I guess there will be variations as there are in all countries). How much does groceries, transport, clothes, toletries etc cost.
I'm living there for a few months and would like to know how far my budget will go.

I'd prefer the priced in Soles cos the conversion rate for British pounds changes.
