I'm just not getting this uploading photo thing. I can't upload from my hard drive as it is a work computer. I've had them emailed to me and have been given jpg numbers for each of them . Can i post from these. Eg P1010001.jpg Any help gratefully appreciated Sparkey

Lloydie , I'm just down the road at Exel. Worked for Scottish express when they were taken over by securicor.Got out before the krauts bought them though. Sparkey

Lloydy, Yep a lot of the old staff have left one way or another. I think Deutche post are stalking me . 3 of my last companies have been bought by them a few months after i left them.Maybe I pissed off their MD on holiday or something .Now he's trying to buy the firm I work for and then sack me. I was speaking to a Dhl driver a while ago and your security seems very strict.nothing like airbornes. Do you work in the Dhl on the gt south west road or over in Hayes ? Sparkey

Guys if you've got a good system for bringing these in I'ts best not to broadcast it .It's not beyond the bounds that a customs officer is a member of this forum . Most of them are as bent as us but you do get the jobsworths, I've worked at LHR all my working life on import clearances so I'm speaking from experience in both freight and courier companies. Airborne was one that Llloydie will probably know. The reason these are getting through is due to where they are being cleared and the volume going through each day. My courier knowledge is a little out of date so correct me if I'm

Gus , That is a good price from Eva plus it would put my evergreen miles up to 45+ thousand . The problem is I've already got 4 weeks booked from the 18th of this month.Basically I'll be coming back skint. With tax that's going to make the price around 550 gbp At the moment the cheaper the better is good. Maybe I'll just have to bring some shirts back to flog. Val, I've worked for airfreight firms at Heathrow all my life . I used to take advantage of the cheap courier flights with Bridges/vs & polar/Ba. I didn't think they did them anymore. The other onbord

Hi val , I Work 4 on 4 off shifts so if I fly on the evening of the 9th I can have either 11 nights or 19 nights at the cost of 4 or 8 days holiday. normaly book with opodo . cheapest indirect currently 543.10 with gf and direct 667.7 with tg. I'm normally only pay circa 450 on br . Sparkey

Cheers LLoydie . Maybe I should start a thread on the best way to lose crap gear without offending the tg. She also bought me some Wrangler T-shirts and the message on them is spelt wrong. What do you do??? Sparkey

In the past I've had rows with the tg . She wanted me to wear shorts at night . I wanted strides to avoid the mozzies. I'm sure she either has no male dress sense or she dresses me like a pratt so other girls don't look at me. If I leave something she's bought me at home she sulks . For example she bought me a flourescent blue silk shirt. wore it back in blighty and everyone thought I was a faggot. Still,I wear it on the plane so she always finds me at the airport quick. You can't miss the fucking thing. Sparkey

If anyone's checking flights for august and sees any good deals please let me know. I'm looking at around the 9th as it's the tg's birthday on the 13th. Prices I've seen so far are way too steep but she's seen me on my birthday for the last 2 years and she's gonna get the hump if I don't celebrate her's soon. Cheers Sparkey 19 days to go

Any exclusions for diving ?? Muff diving that is !! Sparkey

There are DEFRA adverts on the BBC warning about bringing meat into the UK.Why I guess F&M or maybe they were checking for chickens. Sparkey

I get in at 1600 for 4 weeks but I'm staying in Bangers for a few days . If I go straight there I never leave and I want to see a bit more of the country this trip. If you fancy a beer in pty later on pm me. Sparkey

What's unique about it ??? Got any photos ??? Maybe I'll check it out as long as I'm not labelled an airport anorak. Sparkey

I'm flying Eva on the 18th march , back 15th april. 457 gbp. My mate is flying on the thai deal you may have but he has to return on the 15th or lose his seat . With Eva you can normally extend for a 75 Quid fee . Food for thought and cetainly not a crock of shit. Sparkey

Tom , That's what I'm thinking of doing . The other option is going to Chumphon.Then getting a boat to ko tao and another boat to Samui from there . I'm trying to find out the quickest way at the moment although the two ferry trip sounds good . I've always liked being on the waves.Any ideas , suggestions would be and always are gratefully received. Sparkey

Cheers Tom , I'm in Hua hin From the 23rd of next month . I was considering whether to go back to bkk an fly to samui or go overland and take a ferry. If it's going to cost an extra 800 bt on top of the return airfare I think I'll be going overland. Sparkey

Anyone Know why this is the case . Is samui a national park or something where they charge for admittance . Does it apply to thais or just us ?? Confused Sparkey

Cheers tom , that's what I thought . I'd be crazy to use that amount . I can fly to bkk and back again for less than that. Sparkey

Can anyone tell me how many Eva miles I would need for a return flight to manilla from bangers ?? there website isn't too clear as there is large amounts blacked out. Cheers Sparkey

Tom Thanks for putting my mind at rest. After Quantas they are my favourite to Los .At that price though it would make me consider an indirect service and I've never had a good journey that way. I guess we're not getting an air bus it's because it would have to refuel before bkk. Lucky to be a Brit. The miles are going well . My 3rd trip this year will give me 36 odd thousand.I think that might get me a filght to Pi from bkk but haven't looked into it much yet. Cheers Sparkey

I dunno If bigD gets accomodation any cheaper than he's already getting . I can't see it having 4 brick walls. Sparkey

So it's bye bye Eva from there Uk customers too. Sparkey

Dave / Stiffler Dave I'll be arriving 19th March but I'm not going straight to Pattaya.I'm in Los till the 15th april though and will probably be there for a few days while you're there . If you want to meet up for a brew pm me. Stiffler I'll miss you in Bangers as I'm hoping to be in Pattaya by then . I'll pm you my thai mobile number when I get there.If the gf gives it back. Sparkey

Dirtydawg, So what's the boy scout motto ?? I haven't heard all the national anthem since I was in the cubs. Forgotten it now ,apart from the Chorus . Well done mate. Sparkey

Over to you Val . Sparkey
