Yeah, that was my first thought. But some places on Soi Yamoto (Rising Sun), Wonderful bar, Soi Post Office ( 3 Ladies) and PattayaLand (Palmers and Cheers) seem (and look) like they were doing business when Adam was a lad!

I told Eddie and he might well be round soon!

Yes Bangkok Taxis are somewhat removed from a London Cabbie... Had one guy try to take a short cut, so that I was lost, of course he was too, and he was heading in the wrong direction with no opportunity to turn around. Me and the GF complained and he stopped the cab and told us to get out! I told him no I would not and get us back to the starting point.... I had the TGF on the phone to the number shown on the picture inside. I sometimes wonder if they do it just to make more money.

I wouldn't worry about it too much.My transit there went fine and if the airline schedules it, they aim to do it. You perhaps are confusing these ME airports with shamblistic Heathrow whose staff strike every few days.

Will you be serving those nice little biscuits.... Butter Fingers?

Well you would, you grew up with it...Personally I like to pay what it says on the menu without being hit up for taxes and having to subsidise the staff after the event.

If they paid 50% of minimum wage, well it is hardly minimum wage is it? In Europe minimum wage means just that.

Agreed, the map only really served to confuse me... and I used to live down Soi SCC. It was when I noticed the driving range that I realised we were talking much further down than around the railway line rd where I first thought. 7-11's keep springing up around there and the streets sure ain't that square and straight. How about a link on Google Maps...

It certainly did, it is sitting on my hard drive right now.

That's your mother?.... So you are the son of a ?

No it isn't.....

So poorly designed, no quality control and naive engineering.....

Yeah, like a kid does.

Depends which bank you use mate, I had no such limitation using an offshore one (Jersey).... there was a limit but higher than what you quoted, also 'discovered when I bought a house. I regularly transfer 5k but use a telex transfer. Tap the keys in the afternoon and see the beer tokens in LOS next morning.

Well to be honest PP your example just made me think yep, they are dumb! But I did have a similar instance when I was a young smartass (not young anymore) with my girlfriend's mother who thought she was quite the business person... I asked would she prefer a wage increase of £10/month, or one of £150/ year. She got it wrong with the latter. Perhaps it is just women who are thick.
