  1. One of Air Canada managements worse decisions- and they made a few, was to swap Flight Attendants on the LHR-SIN-LHR route with Singapore Airlines. No one in Aircraft Services at LHR could believe it. Swapping the oldest Canadian FA's with some of the most beautiful women in the airline industry ? Are you crazy ? Imagine a regular SQ passenger flying at Christmas. He would probably think the crew were putting on a Panto'. It must be Cinderella and one of the ugly sisters is pushing the drinks trolley along his aisle. On the AC flight, male passengers used to old biddies handi
  2. Did I mention he loves to swim ? The only problem is, when he jumps in to play 'catch me if you can' with his mate the Heron, the swans attack him. The last time, one of them stomped on him while he was swimming back to the shore. Luckily I am a dead shot with a pebble and made them swim away. The ducks like him and follow him across the water, but are no match for the swans.
  3. You mean a path ? That's all there is if you walk along the Grand Union. Walk along the towpath from Islington High Street and you will pass several occupied narrow boats. No car parking, no water or electric hook-ups, no cable TV...... They do have a decent real ale pub- The Wenlock Arms. I met an old sort in there who worked for the Queen. Fair sort for her age. Had a weird Gaelic name. Blimey ! I am wandering again, it must be the sailor in me- yak- yak.
  4. Oh well, if you want live like it's Miami and can't get around a few minor details, I can't help you. There are hundreds of residential canal boats, in the U.K. including on London canals. How do they manage it ?
  5. Well congratulate her on her thinking Kev. See? See ? It does have some possibilities. Not to mention fresh fish for breakfast-dinner- supper...... Somewhere to rinse out your smalls- after you caught the fish ! A swimming area. Yeah ! Got you thinking now eh ?
  6. I'm one of the last people to call someone who isn't English-English. If they won the highest accolade in the world of sport or discovered the cure for cancer. The term British, has lost any meaning it once had. A Ugandan politician said recently- " Anyone can be British- only a Ugandan can be Ugandan." The 'British' woman caught drug smuggling in Laos, has managed to get herself pregnant while in custody. This means she escapes the death penalty. Being a British passport holder, also means our Embassy have spoken in support of her. A human rights lawyer is arranging for her to be depo
  7. This winter he did, just a few hundred yards from where I now sit. I am totally disappointed by the lack of adventure and imagination shown by otherwise, seemingly world wise, pleasure seeking individuals. Rent a condo, it will be safer- What happens if it rains and the wind gets up ? Blimey, if everyone was like you lot a few centuries ago, Thailand would still be undiscovered. I would have thought the Brit's with their seafaring history, would have been a bit more enthusiastic.
  8. My workmate at Air Canada did a lost baggage report for him years ago. When it came to filling out the Customs declaration form, he couldn't resist asking Lennox his nationality.
  9. If you're talking about Andy Murray, to me he will be nothing else but a Scot. He is the tennis worlds Gordon Brown.
  10. This is a good point. Two years ago, a young English lad, had a motorcycle accident in Vietnam. He was badly injured. His father applied to have him flown home by the Travel insurance company, but they refused to honour the claim, because the lad did not have a full UK motorcycle license. One of these small print things that they don't mention when taking your premium. Luckily the father had a contact in VN and a few bob to pay for his sons repatriation. It still cost thousands of pounds. He was so enraged with the insurance company, he contacted Sky News and was interviewed to
  11. Oh no ! A Pikeyist or is it Pikeyphobic post ?
  12. Yep, if Ron could get it to rhyme and add some music, it would be a world wide hit !
  13. QANTAS- Queers And Nymphomaniacs Trained As Stewards. In the late '70's JAL flight Attendants uniform was dark blue jacket, blue miniskirt, blue fishnet tights. The aircraft would pull onto L23 at LHR next to our restroom. The entire crew would walk down the steps to the ramp and cross the road to their office. Trucks would scream to a halt to let them cross. No one pulled away until the last one was through the office doors- happy days.
  14. Sorry BigD, as am American, you are not allowed to separate Hollywood from fact. That is like dissing the Bible.
  15. I thought the idea of the open road or river would hold more appeal to the cigar butt chewing, nipple pierced, tattood, grey haired, pony tailed, bandanna wearing type, than cruising around Patt's on a Harley every day. Where's your sense of adventure ? The world could be your lobster. I can feel a Hollywood film coming on, with Sly Stalone in the lead part- Ramble Free ( followed by Four, Five, Six.... ) There are plenty of BM's who could play his ex 'Nam buddies !
  16. This wasn't an ad, it was a suggestion for alternative accommodation in LOS for Ferangs. If your landlord starts playing up, you up anchor, or drive elsewhere. One bloke built his house as a mobile residence. When the owner of the land came to end his tenancy, and hopefully claim the house, he got it towed away from the sight.
  17. There was an interesting post on the forum of the Bangkok Post, suggesting that a Ferang could buy a Houseboat in which to live. No land would be required, just the access over someones land at a reasonable rent. This could be on a river or lake somewhere. If it had an engine, you could move about and have some change of scenery. Another suggestion was a motorhome or large caravan with electric hook up etc on a farm or similar. A boat conversion would be needed in LOS,as houseboats are not usually on the market. So you Englishmen, when you ask a BG if she would like to 'spend the weeke
  18. Just checked that iii website and one Investment co shares have risen 4950% this month. Now why didn't I use some toxic loan to buy them a month ago ?
  19. Well, some bastard won over £113,000,000 last night on the Euro lottery. They won't have to work again, nor will the next 100 generations of their family.
  20. And you said you would do better doing the Euro lottery. £110,000,000 tonight.
  21. Just for you villa, Google iii, it is an investment website. On the Homepage, there is a search bar top right hand. Enter wkp.l and search share price. When the page appears for this company, scroll down to the box containing the biggest monthly movers by %. You will see some up in value by 200+%. That 'aint bad for a months investment eh ? 6 months ago they were all red boxes, down about 40%. Now they are all blue and rising. PS. From today they have changed the format. No monthly results to check out the big movers. They don't give the difference in daily trade volumes as sell
  22. Put a few bob by, to trade- not invest, in small companies. There is a lot of blue sea now on the markets. Some of the penny shares are up 100-200% in the last month. I think a lot of companies are doing better than expected after we were all told the world was about to end this summer. It's just an idea and a bit of fun too, just don't go overboard.
  23. Oh, I forgot the KKK, . Oxford University assessment ? They probably think multiculturism is an Indian takeaway on Friday night. When Indians take over Oxford Council to serve their own interest and f##k everyone else, like they did in Hounslow, they might have a clue as to what is happening in the real world. js007 asked why Indians are disliked ? Speaking as a BNP/KKK/Racist/ Nazi, or possibly just an Englishman that has lived with them for 30 years, it goes something like this. From casual conversation, they are disliked in at least Thailand and Burma, both of whom have a s
  24. O.K someones got to say it. I am 62 years old and guess what ? When I was a kid, all the jobs that are done by immigrants today, were done by us. We had hospitals full of doctors and nurses, bus drivers, teachers in schools, shopkeepers, factory workers, Butchers, Bakers, Fishmongers..... darn it, we even made ships, dug canals, built railways, underground trains, sewers.... In fact we became a World Power all on our own and with the people we had here. I don't remember any politician 40 years ago, proposing a motioning to flood our country with natives from the third world, to do
