I just went to the booze dealer and got some SML no problem. (price up to 850) But they didn't have Chang soda water, only where I have to give them a case of empty ones, haven't got one. Went to 7-11, shelves looked okay, loads of bottled water now, but no soda water.

24 hr rule... Doctor Zhivago

I drove past a beer distributor on Sunday (near the Tesco convenience store, behind Suk Numchai), and saw great stacks of SML and Chang cases and thought happily to myself, good, it appears the supply chains are sorting themselves out.Now you have corrected me..... a tower of beer ain't so much I suppose.

Surely between Friday and Sunday there is only Saturday?

Amazing how tides turn, I remember you could rarely get squeezed in at Club Boesche years ago. Now that whole purpose built area is turning into an empty waste of space. It will possibly get redeveloped as a market! A sign of changing times. I know I found it a bit of a drag to walk all that way when doing a GO-GO night, but I used to go especially for my power drinking first hour. (Cheap bottles to 9.30). As I did at Sisterz, as I have at NLD1, (do they still have that offer), Champions and World Wide.

Just a matter of time....

Yes, well done Frosty.

A Clockwork Orange.

My little TGF actually got into my old tank .....left about 6 inch of water in there, she gave it a clean and I pulled the plug and we used a hose from the neighbour.Mind you not much use if the incoming water is dirty... I suppose that is where the filter should be. I had a lot of such issues at my old place on Soi Siam CC.

Confirmed.

It is still busy. The roads into town weren't packed like they were for last weeks extended Bangkok holiday, but police are still having to man many junctions.

Well his predecessor was in the job for a while.

Caligula

Not Final Cut or Last Orders?

Get onto the railway line bypass or go via Hwy 7. A little worse than normal but still better thaan the Sukhumvit traffic light junctions. (Well certainly Tai and Klang) The police are operating them and seem to like to make you wait.

Nasty response. I actully feel sad when I see an OP like that. Looks like someone desperate to remain in Thailand who needs a job. Was the OP moved from some other area?

Hmm, when I get stopped I am in the habit of turning the engine off pretty quick.I don't have the 'tax disc' fixed to the outside of the bike and sometimes they want to see that too. The one thing I don't like doing is getting my wallet out, although that is where the licence is. I doubt the registration page shrunk down to wallet size would be readable by anyone other than a hawk. Glad it works out for you, but I think it is in reality the sight of a Thai licence in the hands of a falang alone that mostly gets me waved on.

The streets are also filling up with those tiny motorcycles all the big stores are selling. I doubt they are legal either, specifically as they don't have plates.

I used internet to check this. There was a Steven Hill in The Firm. Steve McFadden, born Stephen Reid, has only done TV movies and the UK East Enders. Have I got it wrong?

I guess you are Tropical Bert.Your late friend Kevin (and mine) used to bring a collection box and some poppies to the Expats Club, but no one has taken up the mantle since. Well done for reminding us.

Why not just keep a regular sized copy under the motorcycle seat?

Well I wish the ex-British honorary council would get back to work on his other intersts. I just watched the 8pm Pattaya One News at 8pm, and the weather forecast was for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. It's Wednesday today so I was wondering about tomorrow?

Wonderful retort.

What about your previous post here then Joe? My contribution..... My girl is different.
