  1. Hot lips O'Houlihan in Mash. Yea, to you it's Thanksgiving; to me it's Thursday
  2. Personally I wouldn't want to be right in the thick of it like that. (Grand Hotel). There are advantages of course, a quick stroll with a lady for a ST. If you arrive after 7pm it can be difficult to get dropped off there. It is easy to get about in Pattaya, a quick cheap ride on a motorcycle-taxi or baht bus is never far away.
  3. Horror of Dracula. Peter Cushing then.
  4. The Elephant Man...John Hurt. So, I guess it means that there is trouble until the robins come.
  5. It is at the North End of Beach Rd and a 5 Star hotel. It will be good. It is about 3 km to Walking St and soi 6 is somewhere in the middle. There is cheap transport along Beach Rd (10 baht pickup trucks with bench seats).
  6. Which one? A few to select from.
  7. Samuel L Jackson in Jackie Brown. Tomorrow the finest sheets in the finest room, in the finest hotel in Cairo.
  8. Christopher Lee.
  9. Meet the Parents.... Robert De Niro. Yes! You taught me that people will do anything for a potato.
  10. Very much so......active as ever although I thought he was planning to retire. Just had a 65th birthday party.
  11. To be honest I was not too keen on the Emirates A380 Biz Class Experience either. A friend agreed... too big a cabin and not that comfortable. I have also had complaints of the speed of drinks and food delivery in Qatar Biz Class on other aircraft, the galley seemed to be very limited and a meal was turned out every 15 minutes, so it appeared. Like many I want to get it done with in the first 1.5 hours and watch a film or try and sleep. A drink before me within 20 minutes of airborne is also something I like, but they were faffing about with some silly snack. I am tempted to try Turkish... prices looking good and improved Manchester connections. Any comments?
  12. Honor Blackman
  13. Full Metal jacket. He's so vain of his beauty, he won't let a man's beard hide it. He scrapes his face like an Englishman.
  14. Feedback appreciated..... I wish they offered the limo service like Emirates and Etihad do.
  15. Yes I had that thought in Homepro recently. Next they will be wandering around hand-in-hand with a Chinese or Indian guy looking at curtain rods.
  16. You forced my hand!!!!!
  17. Did you ask them? How about those marketing property? I mean just carry it in the boot, take the pictures, and put it back!
  18. We may see a change in their spending habits unless they bought their greenbacks 4-5 months ago too. Them getting packed into the baht bus like sardines is more to do with the Thai drivers. The balagan in-front of the Ambassador is quite a danger and has forced me to slow down somewhat and really needs to be organised before something big ploughs into a crowd.
  19. I was half expecting the blue cheese to be bright blue.
  20. Sadly, a lot of studio condos are shown with what appears to be cheap pillow cases and sheets/quilt covers. And only 2 rather poor pillows. Considering the bed is pretty much the centre of it, a nice bedspread would improve the appearance a lot.
  21. Susan George.
  22. Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back also Dogma (24 hr) Wait a minute, wait a minute, you ain't heard nothin' yet!
  23. Peter Vaughan
  24. Yes I got what I thought was a good deal for 30/3 for about 890 baht pcm, although there were some initial charges for the first month. Mine is cable. It includes a TV box, but I don't use it really. It certainly seemed attractive over my TOT ADSL which was 2/0.5 rated, but rarely met that and too frequently was 0/0
  25. Many many other ingredient prices have gone up I expect. Vegetables being a good example. Turkeys are bred locally now although I don't know where the TR ones originate from.
