  1. So here is a quick update..... My son's free step counter was bollocks.. I went to Tucomm today and walked around all 5 floors then took the lift down and there on the ground floor opposite the lifts was what I was looking for. They had a GPS GoLife 820i for 6,900 which tracks your route, distance, calories. There were also Zewatches that tracked your steps in the same shop and on the 3rd or 4th floor they had Garmin watches that do the same thing but surprisingly not GPS tracking models.. I am very tempted by the GPS facility of the GoLife 820i... Any suggestions / comments .????.....but please, any comments about price should relate to what is available to me here rather than in your home country (unless you are willing to buy and bring it over for me)
  2. Zuhai in Guangzou used to be the in place in the early 90s. can't believe you can't get a shag there nowadays. They were literally tripping you over in the street..
  3. Hi, has the cocktail menu been added yet.????
  4. I liked Cennn3 and Parkwahn .... Is Parky on "Live", Parkwahn?? Also I thought that Jacko was Parky ......
  5. Just had a little heart flutter!!! I logged on to "Manage My Trip" and it couldn't find my booking!!! But then I found that in my haste I had spelt my surname incorrectly. Conclusion: Everything is showing booking confirmed..Seat selection in Premium Economy is showing 3/4 full Flying middle August and beginning September..
  6. It was a weekend of dives with Rashford's being the worst. Video refferee should start next season. It won't slow the game down after 3 or 4 players are sent off for "simulation".. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=__G4RrlGmVk
  7. Just watching the replay of Spurs v Arse .... Brilliant sign one Spurs fan had....An underground type sign "Mind The Gap!"
  8. Yep, that was Peter's doing. Funnily enough I bumped into a Bite Me girl in the street on Saturday but failed to ask how Peter was doing.. I also thought at one time that BM "Tallguy" was Peter...
  9. Totally irrelevant but amongst the stuff I cleared out the house when my dear old Mum died was a Gulf Airways blanket my missus nicked bloody decades ago. Still in good condition it is now with my sons with other "special" stuff...
  10. No No ...They are frightened of a Tsunami hitting the Penthouse apartment on Pratumknacker Hill ...It's coincidental that it is in Farang name.....
  11. Jacko is the only poster to touch on a subject that was important to me in decidng what to buy .... what happens when I snuff it.. At the moment I am happy as a pig in shit over here in the slums so I gave my sons (who will inherit whatever I leave behind) what they would like me to do with 45,000 quid of my savings.. Buy a canal boat in UK with a permanent mooring on the kennet and avon canal in Wiltshire Buy a caravan in the West Country (where the oggies grow on trees - oh bugger janner) Buy a mobile home in The New Forset Buy a condo in Pattaya (again) Each would incur annual fees but could be rented out... They overwhelmingly voted for the condo option. I see myself as caretaker of my savings not the owner of them. I have a little pension which , if careful, I can live off.... ..Enough for me to regularly get ratassed and make an embarrassment of myself in Buttsy's, Bodega or anywhere I stumble into... As I mentioned I spent 2 years walking the streets before finally choosing the condo .... but I still quite fancy the canal boat so will check a few out in August...
  12. Thanks, I don't use FB. Was there an anouncement or promotion that this place was openning (given that it was a Simon/Addicts joint venture)?? I don't want to say who the 2 blokes were but I would appreciate any clarification so that I may shoot on up there...
  13. If Lukaku can do the business against Chelseaand Spurs beat the Arse then we are looking at a Wacalicious end to the season.. Also if Newcastle get deducted enough points for tax evasion then Leeds may make it into the play offs..
  14. Walked passsed today.. It has been open a week already.....with a board outside advertising a 98 baht breakfast special... I chatted to 2 blokes outside. It seems Bite Me has re opened in Naklua..... I now feel like Woody when Buzz Lightyear arrived on the scene..... No more Barolo, no more seared tuna...just Retox Eggstra...
  15. I am off for a couple of weeks in August flying EVA Premium Economy with only hand baggage on the outward leg. I shall be returning with 40kg of Poundland corned beef...
  16. The thread can't close until the pedestrian bridge is completed.. so good luck!!!
  17. It'll be good for me when the escalator pedestrian crossing is finished ... My Great Grandchildren will be able to take my ashes there when it opens.... Until then I will continue to cross at Pattaya Tai and use Arunothai ....
  18. I always find this opinion contratictory. Surely a buyer's market is the time to buy.. Anyway, as I have said elsewhere, it took 2 years of using shanks' pony to select the condo that I have bought into. Prior to that I spent time looking at Agency windows and websites ...If you can't spend time on the ground don't do it..
  19. They had ran out of draft beer chang when I had visited earlier so walked around the corner for food instead..
  20. That's Maradonna in the last pic..!!!!!
  21. I'm up at Erawan at the moment but took a trip down to Kanchanaburi to buy wine and was quite surprised to see they were still chucking water from the back of pickups and from the roadside..
  22. Yes, I think many English in America have succumbed to the free chips at the bar offer...or in my case a free Buffet night......which turned out to be a Jimmy Buffet night......
  23. I thought that it was a generally accepted concept that over priced Business and First class tickets help offset cheap Economy class tickets...
  24. I'm on Koh Samed having a nice family break. A more genteel Songkran here. Tomorrow back to Pattaya for one night then heading off to Kanchanaburi and http://www.elephantsworld.org/ Nothing like Lampang of "Eric Bahrt" fame...
