  1. I give up! I was discussing the impact of THIS!
  2. Rain in the night and a sunny morning, very pleasant.

  3. I don't believe so, at least wrt to internet access going East from Thailand. I am talking of a recent issue with ALL internet access, basically with CAT who dominate international traffic. Yes I am on True, and perhaps the limited access which is shared out will impact each ISP differently, but may slow things down until it is repaired, next month. I am certainly getting a lot of problems, accessing Pattaya Talk and Thai Visa and other sites, for 4 days now.

  6. Back to sunny and hot!

  7. I am Sam
  8. How are these boxes working at the moment within Thailand? There are problems with International feeds that will take us into next month.

  10. So you got bar-fined then!
  11. Are you taking a salary or expenses? First thought is yes. The official definition of “work” in Thailand is "to engage in work by exerting energy or using knowledge whether or not in consideration of wages or other benefits" (Source: Thai Ministry of Labour).
  12. Perhaps she said you were her dad?
  13. I stopped having Fish and Chips here, because I never knew what type of fish it was. As you say some were watery and mushy, quite awful, I was told this was a cheaper freshwater variety. I always liked a steamed grouper at Thai style places, particularly where they were recently swimming in a tank, but they got more and more expensive, and some seafood restaurants have ripped me off with the priced by weight result....... Even in the UK they just list it as 'fish', and if you ask 'what type of fish', you can get a puzzled look. Love a freshly battered cod.
  14. Which? I see 2!

    NFL Shame

    Are the holes there to reduce the mass, hence reduce damage, or like a fly swatter, to allow it to travel faster and prevent a softening cushion of air at the point of impact, hence hurting more? Never been sure. A wooden ruler, or a cane, and the fearsome one handed Mr Sharples at my Primary school (he would drape you over his stump face down, hoist you up and the back of the legs were punished) made me fearful, I drank my free milk. Times have changed and I think... good they have on this subject.
  17. I have this heat pack I picked up in Hong Kong. (Stanley Market) It is like a thick plastic bag with a coloured liquid in it, and there is a disc in it you click and then the liquid starts to solidify and it gives out a lot of heat over a few hours. To reset it you have to put it into a saucepan of boiling water for a while then let it cool slowly. Worked wonders on my knee recently and sounds good for your problem.
  18. Which one was he in?
  19. Perhaps now in Delta. I once flew with them in Biz (Houston-London) and it was superb, like a First Class. Good food I recall, lobster.
  20. Cocktail
  21. That was some heavy rain again in the night, a full pool and snails all over the garden.

  22. It is near sacrilegious to put ketchup or HP on 'Fish and Chips'........ Most certainly if you are over 8. Mushy peas are required!
  23. The Piano
  24. I think Mr Toom and Mr T will cover that price. I know Toom will pick you up at the airport for 1200 all in, and take you there for 1000 baht. Just search in this Forum.
  25. Pulp Fiction
