  1. To be honest (and lilkely since I don't drive the truck in town much) I feel the opposite.Pig ignorant car or bike drivers that nearly hit you or sneak up behind you and beep... I hate walking down Soi 7 towards the beach as I keep feeling I will be hit and the hairs are up on my neck. The key to your post is...there are sidewalks available to walk on , there mostly isn't, as they either do not exist, or are full of damned market stalls/parked motorcycles or foodcarts selling toxic farang food. Or the motorcycle taxi guys have set up there blocking it... I shall post a picture from Blackpool promenade when I get back from my UK trip to show what a nice stroll down the front should be like.....
  2. Every little helps, and we have come some way from frying our fish and chips in beef dripping...... But someone who indulges in frequent KFC will lilkely get their trans-fats elsewhere.
  3. Last word freak..(Jack Nicholson in ?????)
  4. Lou Diamond Philips.
  5. DeNiro
  6. Aha, that is easy, and an easy one back..... Meryl Streep.
  7. Nope, likely the opposite. Last time, as usual, I picked a queue with a woman immigration official at the desk as I believe them to work faster and have a less of the 'my shit don't stink, you a backpacker piece of shit' attitude. I was reprimanded for writing my Non-Imm Visa number in the visa box when apparently I should have put the number on my multiple exit/re-entry permit. 'Okay I not know' I said, 'you know now, not do again' I was told...ooooh. I nearly got uppity and told her the exit/re-entry isn't a visa, so why should that number go in a box that asks for visa number! You know what they say about the effect of uniforms.
  8. Now and again, a greasy breakfast hits the spot. But yes, perhaps a better quality of grease say from The Pig and Whistle or Rosies who will probably have black pudding too. Not to everyone's tastes... a USA guy, after I explained to him what it was asked..'why would you eat that?' (Because it tastes good actually)
  9. That is exactly what I say to the ones selling the sparrows in little cages.
  10. Paddys Bar Opposite The Cool House (Klang near Tops) must have a good Happy hour as it always seems quite busy when all the bars nearby are dead.
  11. I wouldn't have said tasteless, all the salt brings out the flavour.
  12. Just the one....? Falang food doesn't normally come off carts numbnuts.
  13. I am pretty sure you can get a slice with the fatboy breakfast at nearby Crazy Daves, but they aren't much into deviating from the menu.
  14. Looking at a Biz Class for May, ex BKK. So far Ethiad look best pricewise... and includes a limo. Qatar next at 10k baht more, no limo but a better transit and in-flight they are superior. Emirates are yet another 20k baht, just too much at 119k.... I am keen to try the A380 but hope to see a better price.
  15. Not many in that film attended the Oscars I guess.... 24 hr rule required to get... Emily Browning (who?)
  16. Tempting to offer to buy the cameras, they may have some antique value now.
  17. No, I don't think I will do that.The film was a Bond movie, perhaps Diamonds are Forever. , just maybe Goldfinger though.
  18. Somewhere around here.... I lived at the Inside Garden for a while and it isn't a bad place to get around from. My TGF used to jog back from the Aerobics at the beach end of soi 6.
  19. Isn't that right where Qatar and Ethiad are timewise? I am all for increased options but Manchester Term 2 is beginning to be as bad as Heathrow for queues.
  20. I have heard this name many many times.... reasonable?
  21. Thanks, I shall be taking a look. Quite, but most of them are seeking the tourist requiring expensive cosmetic dentistry, and are fresh out of college. I am looking for a 'regular' dentist who has a decade's experince and won't mind working in my mouth for a few hundred baht without trying to sell me veneers, laser whitening or other stuff.
  22. I have 15..... As MM said, the forum software seems to keep me synched up.
  23. It sprang to mind... they way they park their vehicles absolutely anywhere that is completely in the way. They will park behind your bike, blocking you in. Any workmen that come to my house will park infront of the neighbour's gate, and visa-versa. And there is loads of space to go, out of the way. Beware you twats who park your bike behind my bike with your steering lock on..... I carry a padlock to exact revenge when I do get free.
  24. David Strathairn
  25. Are you kidding.... I have no idea what they put in those?
