Hi Tinkerbell2,

Weather is reasonably good the 1st week in January.

Central Thailand (Bangkok) experiences an annual hot tropical climate with average daytime temperatures reaching 35*C. November to February is the most popular with tourists. The hottest months are April & May and the monsoon season is from June to October.

I would recommend buying the Rough Guide to Thailand which will have lots of good information. Also see this website www.roughguides.com , the Sunday Telegraph recommends this guide as the best of the many guides on the market.

Cost of living and eating in Thailand is relatively inexpensive with the Thai Baht being quite strong against the Pound GBP. There is currently 60 Baht to the Pound, so eating out is very cheap.

You may also find the following link to a small Far East Specialist useful for tourist info http://www.lazyvacation.co.uk/thailand/index.htm , they are very helpful and I am sure they will be happy to assist you.

Hope this helps you.

In fact you'll find that throughout south-east asia the local food is rather cheap. In Malaysia for example, most people eat out anyway since food stalls are almost everywhere and it is so incredibly cheap. You can probably find a decent meal for around £1-2.
