Yet again I show my appalling powers of "Sporting Predictions"! The "Donkeys" really brayed, and slaughtered the Wallabies

Just seen the diabolical British & Irish Lions (sorry, Welsh Donkeys) selection for the final test Game, set and match to the Wallabies!

The team that lost the 1st test. There are no Scots available, apart from Grant, (who is only there because all of the other "genuine" looseheads are broken) that are good enough to make the team. Gray would now be 3rd choice lock, but is lucky to be on tour, unlike the huge potential he was showing 3 seasons ago. Laidlaw should have been selected ahead of Murray for the Tour.

I'm not a pizza fan by any means, but I was just wondering whether the obvious wholesale hatred of Pizza Hut offerings here are specific to the Pattaya/Thailand branches, or to Pizza Hut worldwide. Their press in the UK does not seem to be too bad apart from being horrifically expensive.

Now, if sinkorswim had my sense of humour, he would surreptitiously edit in one more photo on the end! BTW... Thanks for running the "best show in town" (by a long chalk) !

Quite so wrt 1st Class (I have 3 flights with them in the pipe 1st class at the moment myself) and a few other airlines come into that bracket too. Cathay can be relatively reasonable and have a brilliant 1st product (just it seems a very indirect way of getting there and London is unavoidable) The Emirates problem is purely on width of seat and only on the 380; the 777ER has a wider product. I was OK in the seat ( I actually bear no resemblance to the nicname ) but did feel a bit restricted.. . If you are OK in say a Thai economy seat, the Emirates product will be fine.

Favourite for the "Fat-bottomed Guys" to make the rockin world go round is Singapore in Biz (however price is big too). Of the airlines where you could get a good deal in biz; beware of Emirates using the big 380 Airbus. Their seat, although good for pitch is only 18 inches wide ; piss poor really! Short (remarkably!) gave good advice earlier wrt Seatguru; check their "comparison" tab.

Finnair are a bit hit and miss really, and if you are only saving a small amount, not worth bothering with. Complaints about connections, delays, service and even "ugly stroppy old" stewardesses used to abound. I would imagine they have changed their seat design nowadays (google will always come up with images or videos) but when I used them last I would liken it more to a "premium economy" model, and the initial leg would just be an economy seat with nobody sitting next to you (if you were lucky). I always put them in the "1 step up from Aeroflot" bracket.

You have all the access by being a member. Do you see some area that you cannot enter? No. There are forums that I used to have access to (and posted in) before I was erased and subsequently re-instated as a new member that are no longer available. The "Gallery" is also no longer accessible either to view or deposit.

Do they serve the delightful "Balut" Egg dish at Nena's ?

I've heard that Gabor is thinking of converting to Islam, so as to avoid the "bigoted persecution" on this board!

Their prices on their own website seem to be up and down like the proverbial "whores drawers" recently. I have been making a few 1st Class bookings with them and quotes/take ups have varied from ￡3.5 K up to ￡4.8 K. from Glasgow or Manchester. The price even changed mid booking on one occasion ( Failed booking message and request to re-try) as it was a ￡100 drop I carried on!

Guess wot I dun !

Try Gabor for info. Hungary and Poland probably have similar visa requirements.

I have just done a Cathay return UK - Hong Kong (Out First/back Biz) last week. No checks on hand luggage at all, but I don't travel particularly heavy in that department myself. However; some of my fellow pax in Biz seemed to be "really packing"! BTW 1st is superb, but then again I wasn't paying for it!

If China Eastern are anything like China Southern, I wouldn't tend to hold out too much hope for the OP. As for the re-scheduling expenses bd is right in saying it has been going on for some time. The more recent "rip-offs" though are the likes of having to pay due to a stupid spelling mistake of one's name on e-tickets etc., especially if agents are involved. Once the evil practice of the budget airlines, but now being employed by major airlines. Emirates, BA and Virgin have all been recently "exposed" in the UK. (As I have been repeatedly reminded of, since recently changing my personal fli

Saras is advertised but looks pretty expensive to me. Is in the Sun City Hotel (next to Siam Bayshore) Door2Door delivery as well.

Back to OP The SandySpring (seaview, overlooking swimming pool) rooms have private balconies that are not overlooked, provided you avoid the 08 suffix (eg 508,608). The suites do not have private balconies meeting your criteria. For a month or more, View Talay villas, also have a private pool but rental is fairly pricey. I'm sure there are many others!

Unfortunately can't make that one as I am in Victoria, Canada at the time. Nephew has the ticket again, as has been the case for a lot of this particular season. In fact my ticket has cost me about 250 pounds per game in effect! Mai bpen rai!

I was there Tom; much to the chagrin of my nephew, who more often than not this season gets the use of my season ticket. Great atmosphere as you would expect but I missed the second goal thanks to a group of morons just in front of us. Good to actually win it at a home match; rather than have it unfold on TV while the team are inactive.

A bigoted, racist ,Pollyanna of a penis ! ………… Now there's a mouthful!

I've found that the Middle-Eastern airlines that I tend to use seem to drop prices or initiate special offers around September in the UK; however, I almost exclusively book through the airlines own websites nowadays.

Actually it was Channel 4 "Morning Line" where I heard that the owners were considering it again. I notice that the "enlightened" British press have her coming over as a "sex-tourist" ! Make a bit of cash from the race and pay for a shag off Frankel !

…… And it all works way better than before on Android. I used to think the problems were down to my tablet and stubby fingers ! Upgrade much appreciated.

I'd say Newcastle will probably go "safe" with a win tomorrow. I wonder how many of their supporters will be hit with the "threatened ban" for giving Di Canio his Fascist salute back as has been promised ? Probably just as well that the silly idea of a minutes silence for Thatcher's death wasn't taken up; that would have certainly been the cue for a rousing chorus of "Ding dong the witch is dead" in those parts! FWIW I reckon the final relegation spot will be between Stoke and Sunderland, on the assumption that the totally unpredictable Wigan do their customary Houdini act. Stoke and the loa
