Re: if sending money to los why not cheques
Crackpot replied to H's topic in General Discussion about Pattaya
Thai Banks will accept a Sterling cheque to be paid into an account, BUT They will take a lifetime to clear it and will also charge you an extortionate amount for the pleasure of doing so. -
That was taken at Clacton mate !

international drivers license
Crackpot replied to doorman's topic in General Discussion about Pattaya
In the UK its is called an International Driving Permit (IDP) More details are here http://www.rac.co.uk/travelservices/int_dr...driving_permit/ or here http://www.drivingpermit.co.uk/ -
I used to travel Kuwait Airways a lot. Change of Aircraft wasnt too bad and they always gave you a whopping great breakfast in the upstairs restaurant on the way back inbound (including bacon !) My only gripe was the reading of part of the Quoran before every take off

In the 60's I played with a group that was on the same show as The Seekers and I had the pleasure to meet them all. Judith Durham is tiny !! Lovely Jugs though, problem is when she speaks its just like listening to an old Oz 'ocker'. Played Knebworth in 1980 in Mike Oldfields band with the last 'full' Beach Boys lineup. They were amazing, sent shivers down my spine listening to them

You know nothing. The Beach Boys are commonly acknowledged as one of the worlds best groups and as songwriters, the Wilsons are still up there on a par with Lennon/McCartney. And just to show my eclectic tastes in music I just bought "The Seekers 25th anniversary concert" Video Lovely bit of music.

Well I bought a 'Beach Boys Live in Concert' DVD when in Pattaya in October and still cant get the sodding thing to play despite having 2 region free DVD machines in the house :-[ :-[

international drivers license
Crackpot replied to doorman's topic in General Discussion about Pattaya
An International Driving Licence may be aobtained from one of the bigger Motoring organisations in your country. No test is necessary so long as you have a driving licence already. Please note Thailand drives on the correct side of the road though -
How about we start pitching tents in Lumpini Park ?? Its just a shame I cant get my Motorcaravan over there.

Please dont think Im an apologist for Muslims or other people who live in this country and cant be bothered to learn the language or form little ghettoes and wander around as if it was Pakistan or India or whatever, cos Im not. I was one of those musicians who complained bitterly at the 'Black Music Awards', arguing that if someone had suggested a 'White Music Awards' they would have been called racist. We still refuse to have anything to do with it or the MOBO awards. However I find it alarming that a country like the US can go anywhere they like and arrest people when they themselves refuse to let their own soldiers be subject to the International Court of Human rights. One law for the man with the biggest gun and another for the rest ????

Mobile phones and SMS in Thailand
Crackpot replied to valentinoxxx's topic in General Discussion about Pattaya
Cant recomend a provider in the US but for Thailand I would just recommend going into MBK and getting a used phone and simcard deal Velly cheep -
Look Im that cheap if they had a Garden, I'd stick a tent up and kip in me sleeping bag.

How do you say 'Sorry' to someone you hanged by mistake ? The Death penalty never worked and the US shows that it continues to be a total failure.. You dont call a man an animal then proceed to do the same to him as he did to someone else.

"Sponge till the time is right" ?? Where did that come from. Whilst I understand your sympathies, I also understand the sympathies for those who wish to stop unprovoked aggression and violence imposed by bully boy countries such as the UK and US. Sure the Taliban werent the nicest people in the world. But neither the UK nor the US has the right to interfere with the internal politics of a sovereign state such as Afghanistan or in another case Iraq. Neither the US nor the UK are the policiemen of the world. On another tack, surely going to live in Thailand could, to Stretch a fine point, be classed as Treason? BTW We abolished, quite rightly, the Death penalty in the UK.

Yep dead serious. Its a fleapit I know, but AFAIK its the cheapest hotel near Sukhumvit with a pool. I mean what do you want in a Hotel ? Its just a place to sleep, shag and shower. Its just changed ownership too and in November started a refit (well a refit of the recption area at least)

No I dont think Blair is that stupid. They must be tried to establish their innocence/guilt. But I fail to see what the charges would be ?. It was a war and unless they had committed war crimes I dont think there would be any charges in a UK court that would be relevant, and I suspect that the US is starting to wake up to that problem now I see no problems with someone from say the UK or US going to fight in another country in an army or constituted force set up to defend a country against Brits or Yanks or whoever if they feel strongly about something. Didnt people do that in Civil wars in the UK, US and other places around the world ? My conscience is mine and I live my life by that, not the dictats of some Office Wallah or politician. However, saying that, I could not see myself personally fighting for any county other than the United Kingdom (the whole of it and not just England
