  1. I am not personally all that football crazy as I was a Hockey player, but football played by professional players is a far cry from the football you played as a kid. The intensity of the game is huge and requires much more fitness than American football which only requires effort in 30 second rushes whilst a footballer at the top of his game will run 12-14 Kilometres in an hour and a half which is much farther than any American Footballer ever runs in a month of games. If you want to compare sports then compare like with like and that would mean comparing grid iron to Rugby and rugby is faster
  2. Sorry about that I have no idea now how I came up with the £10000 figure when I first looked at it, I must have had a brain fart. As you say at the real price its what I would expect to pay in Thailand's inflated second hand market. But honestly I could not find a minibus for sale over 16 years old on eBay UK, and that was a 17 seater priced at £1000
  3. That's almost £10000 for a 17 year old mini bus that you could not sell for £1000 in the UK today . why is it worth so much in Thailand?
  4. My diesel Berlingo has a timing belt.
  5. Bronze rat in Sydney A bloke from the bush walked into a Sydney antique shop. After looking around for a while, he noticed a very life-like bronze statue of a rat. It had no price tag, but it was so striking that he decided to buy it anyway. He took it to the owner and said: "How much is this bronze rat?" The owner replied: "It's $12 for the rat, and $100 for the story, sir." The fellow gave the owner his $12 and said: "I'll just take the rat; you can keep the story!" As he walk
  6. Hi I have not been to LOS for a few years but my advice is germane, I was never under 150KG in all my stays in Pattaya and any of the Bikes I rode from 115cc to 135cc were all OK as far as pulling my weight. If however you are an unskilled rider I would get a Twist and go Automatic and that way you do not have to worry about learning how to change gears. I always took the cheapest deal I could but you may be of a different mind but any twist and go will suit if you weigh as much as150KG,these bike would also take my girl of the day on the back so unless you want to go speeding along, these s

  8. this one went on ebay earlier this year for £170 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Seiko-Premier-Kinetic-Perpetual-Mens-Gents-Watch-SNP001P1-7D48-0AA0-Boxed-/310662544223?pt=UK_Jewelery_Watches_Watches_MensWatches_GL&hash=item4854ee3b5f This looked like it was sold new but I have seen others that were new in the $340-$700 range, but that is just by the by I was commenting on the high price of second hand goods in Thailand. I will always look for the lowest price on anything I buy as paying the highest price is to me a stupid move. I did however see that this was a popular watch as it is out o
  9. I find that the prices for second hand goods in Thailand is highly inflated, but why would anyone buy a second hand watch at this price when a new one can be had for 13,500baht, and 5 minutes on the internet.
  10. I just wish I could afford to live in that style, it is a beautiful house and I wish you well in its sale.
  11. Yes Gabor I know it says 48sqm but it does not look like 48sqm it looks no bigger than 32sqm
  12. I would question the claim to 48sqm as in the pics it looks no bigger than the 32sqm places I have stayed in.
  13. Do you still have the bike entitlement on your British licence ?if so you can get a bike licence just by applying with the relevant paperwork, others on the forum can tell you how and where ,I did it a few years ago. To be honest with you my bike riding days in the UK were a lot longer ago than yours , but unless you are looking at a big bike I would just buy a small ,115-125 cc, bike and ride of into the sunset and learn as you ride ,just like you did back in the UK. If you take care and ride slowly you will get back all of your riding skills in a very short time .If you really think you need
  14. Surely as a bar owner you should know that the proof of a spirit is not the alcoholic content , as 110 proof is really 55% alcohol ,just as "normal" drinks are 80 proof and 40% alcohol.
  15. New look Royal Navy The Royal Navy is proud to announce its new fleet of Type 45 destroyers. Having initially named the first two ships HMS Daring and HMS Dauntless, the Naming Committee has, after intense pressure from Brussels, renamed them HMS Cautious and HMS Prudence. The next five ships are to be HMS Empathy, HMS Circumspect, HMS Nervous, HMS Timorous and HMS Apologist. Costing £850 million each, they comply with the very latest employment, equality, health & safety and human rights laws. The Royal Navy fully expects any future enemy to be jolly decent and to
  16. Of course you can sell it cheaper than the advertised price, but who ever pays the advertised price ,because the advertised price is the "Farang" price. The Thai price is lower so if its in a Thai name it costs less.
  17. Just in case you don't know ,or think we don't know , Thai Quota is much cheaper than Farang quota. So you are trying to sell for farang price a Thai condo.
  18. I think its time to give up, you are obviously out of your depth and everything you post is only digging you deeper in the mire. Every question asked has been questions that any buyer should be asking before investing a sizable chunk of change, you don't seem to have grasped the simple fact that you have no sensible answer to their sensible questions. So unless you want to keep being played with I would give up your quest to sell this "Property" to anyone on this forum or any other forum. Look for a drunk in a bar and sell it to him, that way you will both be talking shit and that makes you eq
  19. No its actually very real ,you can if you wish see it on Utube
  20. Is the ball thrown overarm in baseball?, I thought it was more a side throw, as over arm would drop the ball out of the strike zone almost every pitch. I always like to take the mick about American sports just like every other Brit, and Yanks love to pull our chain when it comes to that ,but American football has very little in common with Rugby just as Rounder's has little in common with Baseball as both may have come from those roots previously stated ,but are made for a different audience and have vastly differing rules , that have changed over the years as the audience have become more i
