The Usual Suspects. This white guy walks in about one o'clock, asks if we have a discount for alcoholics... I tell him to get lost, but Marty's sitting here listening and I can tell he's thinking that maybe it ain't such a bad idea.

Joan Sims

They have been doing that since BigD turned up once.

Roy Castle (24hr)

Lock stock and 2 smoking barrels..... And along those lines..... Do you know what "nemesis" means? A righteous infliction of retribution manifested by an appropriate agent. Personified in this case by an 'orrible cunt... me.

There are still many many beer bars. Although those in the Walking St area have surprising prices for a beer and a ladydrink...similar to GoGos. Beer bar areas have sprung up in new places to replace the old areas that vanished, not so many on Beach Rd now, Some are centres for very low prices (New Plaza). Soi 7 still has a lot too. Bar Fine prices.... beer bars can be 300-700 baht, an LT 1500-2500, again beer bar. GG Bar prices, Check this out. It is going to be busy in January..... try using Agoda or Tripadvisor to get an idea of availability. Maybe Nova Park?

Hot lips O'Houlihan in Mash. Yea, to you it's Thanksgiving; to me it's Thursday

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.

Horror of Dracula. Peter Cushing then.

The Elephant Man...John Hurt. So, I guess it means that there is trouble until the robins come.

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).

Which one? A few to select from.

Samuel L Jackson in Jackie Brown. Tomorrow the finest sheets in the finest room, in the finest hotel in Cairo.

Christopher Lee.

Meet the Parents.... Robert De Niro. Yes! You taught me that people will do anything for a potato.

Very much so......active as ever although I thought he was planning to retire. Just had a 65th birthday party.

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?

Honor Blackman

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.

Feedback appreciated..... I wish they offered the limo service like Emirates and Etihad do.

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.

You forced my hand!!!!!

Did you ask them? How about those marketing property? I mean just carry it in the boot, take the pictures, and put it back!

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.
