She is a bit small to handle the mower and one of the better weed whackers, And to be honest she does enough work around the place. Mind you she has made the job harder always planting stuff. I found hauling the lawn mower around exhausting (doesn't have engine assisted wheels), too many awkward corners, edges and stuff too. Always ended up in a lounger with a fan blasting me after 20 minutes. Even the bloody Thai hardware annoys me, unreliable poorly made crap that it is. Used to spend more time trying to get the old mower running until I broke the starting pull in frustration and gave it away! Fancy making it all from plastic. Had someone coming round every 2 weeks, a rather strong looking Thai lady and her helpers, she knocked a concrete night light ornamental thing over into the pool with her big behind. She could never get her mower going. Seems like they lose interest after 3-4 visits and start letting you down.

Any plans to have a buffet? Not sure it would be best in this town! And there would be a bearded guy roaring in on a mobility scooter to watch out for.!

The Sting, staring Robert Redford!

Not capable at the moment mate. But after today I am seriously thinking of buying my own strimmer and starting to do it again myself. I already have one of those cheaper electric ones but they aren't up to the job and you spend most of the day threading the damned things! Last time I had a bigger job done the workers seemed to spend most of the day mooching in my toilet and I was scared to death one of the damned toddlers they always bring would drown in my pool.......first thing they do when they arrive is sit around eating and then they are all off for a shit!

The 737 uses CFM 56 engines, the 747-800 and 787 are using GEnx engines. The one in 1988 could have been Pratt and Whitney.

If still in doubt, send me a few and I will test them!

A tequila never lasts very long..........

I bet it is a struggle to get them off their phones. Can't turn a corner in Homepro or Homeworks without falling over one!

I only wanted my grass cutting. My usual gardener kept cancelling at the last minute so we found a new guy. He cancels the first day. Turns up... second try...and now I can't even wash my butt after taking a dump. First he can't start his 20year old strimmer. Off he goes, has it looked at, comes back and it still won't start. So I borrow one, next I see they are taking it apart... doesn't like the head and wants to swap it with his. I just know some of the bolts are going to be lost. Then he cuts my main water line..... hence my inability in the bathroom,,,, running the strimmer too close to the pump pipework. Now he is borrowing all my tools leaving them lying all over the place......chucking cigarette butts all over the place. For sure some botch job coming here, it really needs 3 new elbows and a valve to do it right. I think the last gardener kicked the head off one sprinkler and broke another! Let us hear them, tales of woe and the odd 'my guy is great' post.

As mentioned, regular public taxis also include the lager vehicles. Even Mr Toom or T could likely supply a minivan if you specifically requested it.... I have had them arrive without requests. How far can you go on 1 charge? Are you angling for some BM to pick you up for free in their truck?

Longer than a Lady Drink.........

And now that we got all your orders from Dubai.... we just thought we would tell you.... Boeing warns of engine icing risk on 747-8s, Dreamliners. Reuters.

Might be a matter of what you regard as the 3rd Floor. Level 2 is arrivals, Level 4 is departures. Here is level 3....perhaps you get a taxi in the car park? You are completely correct on your first point though.

I hope so. I brought mine back in a filled shoebox too. The nurse said 'I only needed a small sample mastermind!' I said 'I started so I'll finish'

I give it a chew to get the juices but there isn't much there!

Depends on whether Visa or Mastercard I believe. The latter being the 180 baht. Never mind, over 51 baht/£ now for TT.

I am sure it was very entertaining in the waiting room. Over the plastic chair looking at the Africa pages in National Geographic? When I was there the nurse gave me a little plastic cup and said she needed a stool sample. I looked at the little thing and suggested 'you haven't seen one of my turds have you?'

As are the people that are NOT in Timbuktoo....

My TGF does chicken wings at the house, we buy the proper wing-bit from Tesco, as opposed to the cheaper other bits which I think are part of the thigh. They are a bit small of course, She left me a cooked lot recently and said why not microwave them for a snack later. She serves a salty chilli sauce for dipping which straight on the tongue like that is powerful. I microwaved them and chucked them in some plastic container with a big lump of butter and the chilli sauce and did the cocktail shake for a while. Rather good and had me looking round for a Bud!

The Devil Wears Prada

Or underpants.

Coincidentally I noticed a good selection of swimwear in BigC-X only yesterday. Plenty of tourists shopping there so I think your size could be accommodated. Failing that a sock some elastic.

We all got great big boats to tow!
