  2. A bit of background on the laptop. Operating System (Windows Vista/7 or 8) or is it a Mac? Internet Browser and version (Chrome, Firefox or Internet Explorer). Did you perform any updates or load new programs just before this started? Any problems logging into other things from the laptop.
  3. The Jackal
  4. Internal Affairs
  5. Warmer...warmer......colder

      Felt outright cool sitting ouside in the breeze at noon. Could have been in Isaan.

  7. Brooklyn's Finest
  8. Jeez I pay the fish-killer a lot more than that! I do have a fair bit to do though. I have been through 4 different groups and they just seem to lose interest or create some issue. Neighbour had to fire off one group as all the plastic Raco fittings kept vanishing. I like them to bring all their own gear and take away all the cuttings.
  9. That surprised me, RD Jnr can hold a tune quite well.
  10. Being a glutton for punishment, and tired of looking at an unkempt garden, and not able to heave my lawn mower about, I called the same guy back. A little like the Garp film, I thought he couldn't do me harm again....... And I seemed to be right... he cut grass, trimmed edges and worked well for about 3 hours. I paid him off and looked at the resulting well manicured bushes and lawn thinking, better this time. I still got water! He had managed to knock off all 4 of the largest Star apples off the bush as if they were invisible, but never mind. When the Missus got back she was less impressed.... many of the little guppies or whatever in the large pot with a lotus plant were deciding to go belly up. He had made the same mistake the wifey had previously made of putting fertilizer in with the fish for the benefit of the lotus. She had killed off 2 potfuls of fish before........ You kinda think a gardener would know these things.......(he has a garden centre this guy). If anybody has any of these expensive koy fish, beware your gardeners! Until next time......

    Golf Clubs

    They are very common indeed. A pal was recently complaining he had put his in for auction and couldn't get rid for 500 baht! So Collinbourne auctions.....or a second hand shop.....there are a couple on Klang near the Lengkee restaurant.
  12. At this point, I seem to be redirected to an innocuous site as per OP. But of course that need not be the case. I even tried a Block-Site Firefox Add On, but I just got stuck on the blocked site page and had to disable it!
  13. I am coming from the North Gary, and obviously that isn't really an option...certainly not Pattaya Tai either! You have to realise I despise driving in heavy traffic and the truck, despite it's age has been on Beach Rd twice only!
  14. Is there a chance this is a component of the problem??? Thai Visa
  15. Haha, you make driving down soi Buakhao at that time of night sound easy peasy........you must do it often. Have to let the Missus drive, I would keep hitting the katoeys!!!! I could do 3rd rd then soi Lenkee etc though.
  16. Not a bad suggestion Mick, but I am coming from the North side and it is a SOB to get to.
  17. I have to park the big old truck tonight, somewhere close to Tops at the Klang/2nd rd junction, 8pm to maybe 11 or midnight. It is getting tough and it is something I never do......my thoughts worries. Tops car park..... often full though and how much would it cost, what time is it closed? Carrefour (BigCX).... then get a baht bus or a couple of M/C taxis. What time does that place stay open until. I was even considering Tesco on Nua but it is a long way off. Better suggestions anybody???
  18. Safe House.
  19. Not Khao Kitchakoot I wager!
  20. A Time To Kill.
  21. Morgan Freeman
  22. Clint Eastwood.
  23. Well it doesn't make sense to open yourself up for some jail-time or a shakedown. Only 2 choices for me...you check the pump is zeroed before you let him start pumping.... but easy to forget now and again. Second option, take his picture and put a police report in. (Maybe try City Hall instead) I think MM will be aware for another year or two.
  24. And how are things at Muscat airport?
  25. I can certainly appreciate the concept of avoiding going out onto suk. A creature of habit, I fill up at the station near my house if I leave home with under 1/3 tank. They are a pleasant bunch there and mostly it is a Thaiglish fun experience. Bloody machines should automatically reset when the handle is removed.
