  1. Yes, the fruit is much sweeter when you don't pay for it.
  2. I will repeat my comment to the stewardess I made flying my last Club World jaunt. "I didn't realise 'shrimp salad' meant a shrimp and salad!"....
  3. John Hurt
  4. Can't afford Villa......
  5. Well that and having to use old 777's to and from Bangkok, and the timings that don't really suit someone wanting to get a shuttle from Heathrow are unlikely to get me off the Emirates A380. The seat and facilities doesn't look very good and, even though it is vegetarian, what a crappy meal. A shame really, as getting the whole ride over with in one step, like Thai and Eva, offer is attractive, and the transfer in T5 to domestic is easy. Fallen a long way has the old Club World, while the competition strives and improves its offerings. I wonder what price he paid relative to other carriers.... you get an impression so many corner are cut here that it is circular. Even the puff-pouch is crappy.
  6. It is 17 Deg C out there... swim cancelled!

      No morning dip for you too then, I expect...:-)

  7. Brrr.. a bit nippy this morning!

  8. Already used by Samsonite Jan 17...... Still on Sir Richard Attenborough.
  9. A bit of rain yesterday, must have been bad somewhere, no internet, True Cable TV or Sophon cable Saturday morning.

  10. Agreed, a great thread, and extremely useful. Someone asked the Q at the Expats Club and I was able to reel off a few suggestions having read this.
  11. I would like to put my name down to get in the queue after Richard!
  12. And Rt 36 down by my house!!!!
  13. Here is a link to it.
  14. Yes I got it.... have a good trip.. We are still on Sir Richard Attenborough.
  15. Sir Richard Attenborough. (Not Pattaya, another La-La land, Lancashire).
  16. Rex Harrison (local lad)
  17. Haha, I was just going to search that advert and post it myself EP!
  18. Elizabeth Taylor.
  19. 32000 pcm for high season sounds pretty good actually. 1000 a night.
  20. Some idiot with a ruddy great back-pack on getting in the way! Just what you need before the trip even starts!
  21. So why is the USA's best selling vehicle (Ford Fseries) the least reliable.
  22. It is dry season, clear and sunny in Pattaya.

  23. Have you tried contacting City Garden? I understand their rental website is not up an running, but there is an opportunity to leave a message.
  24. If you are back in the UK I kinda feel it is the Indian food that is over-hyped. A well done Xmas dinner is sensational but it doesn't really suit the Thai climate and one needs something good on TV, a comfy chair and the ability to unfasten ones pants after. Coming home, after visiting the pub on a Christmas afternoon, to all those lovely smells! Wonderful.
  25. Is a visa required and can they be obtained easily on arrival there?
