Now that you have got that of your chest ,what was the point?

What a great idea Pete ,I will have to make sure I come in for a free beer as I am the ultimate cheap charlie ,but can I go back to my usual Diet coke after and not be laughed at,I know I dont drink much beer but I will not be able to resist the lure of a freebie.

yes I am a big guy so it could be an issue. thanks for the warning.

Get the number for NeeRoys in soi chiapoon they deliver (only localy as far as I know)but they charge you only the price you would pay in the shop plus I think 20baht for the bike rider who delivers it to you. PS they do (or did last year )only charge 99 baht for fish and chips

Whilst no being a Curry aficionado I do enjoy one on occasion. My personal favourite is NeeRoys in soi Chaiapoon ,here the lady of the house turns out great curries and great British food .She learned the art of Curry making in Doncaster before returning home to Thailand.The curries are of the sweet kind that I know some dont like but myself and many others do,as well as good curry the prices are very competitive.For any BMs wanting to find this place its just opposite Crazy Daves with a large yellow awning stating, ENGLISH STYLE CURRIES, and is open 1400 until 0400. Enjoy

Not quite that bad as my condo only gets a clean and linen change twice a week.I also dont see that my giving, someone who is alredy paid to do a job, a days pay as a tip is anything but generous. I come from a country that pays its employees a wage and does not expect them to make their living from tips unlike some jobs in the USA.Just to add I am only one of many who tip, so even at my rate the ladies that clean in the condo that I use are very well tipped. PS there are some days when apart from food I don't spend 200Baht

I once flew Delta to Orlando with a stopover in Cincinnati,when I was actually on the plane to Orlando there was an announcement that they were looking for flyer's that would take a bump so some family could fly together .The offer was $700 for each seat ,as there was only myself and my son I took the bump .I was booked on the next flight which was in 4 hours ,they gave us 2x$20 meal vouchers so we sat in the pizza place and watched some sport ,which was what we had planned to do in our Orlando hotel as we were not going to pick up the rental car until the next day. The real point to my story

not even close to 365 a day.check this web site for accurate and up to date (June2008,last increase af far as I know ) http://www.mapfoundationcm.org/eng/news/mi...wage_07_08.html The cleaners in my condo last year got 170 baht for a 10 hour day,I gave them a 200 baht tip at the end of my 3 month stay plus they got all my rubbish which the searched sorted and sold on what they could.

I have to say the 2nd most alternative to comedy was the recent Red Dwarf series which was so alternate it was not funny.How anybody could write up Lister ,Cat ,Crighton,Rimmer and still not be funny is beyond me

I think you should work for the Flying Circus ,as thats the most alternative comedy I have ever heard.

I do not understand ?

The questions below about Australia, are from potential visitors. They were posted on an Australian Tourism Website and the answers are the actual responses by the website officials, who obviously have a sense of humour. Q: Does it ever get windy in Australia? I have never seen it rain on TV, how do the plants grow? (UK). A: We import all plants fully grown and then just sit around watching them die. Q: Will I be able to see kangaroos in the street? (USA) A: Depends how much you've been drinking. Q: I want to walk from Perth to Sydney - can I follow the railroad t

Hats off to the witty burglars who stole my entire CD collection with the exception of "There is Nothing Left to Lose" by the Foo Fighters. I hope that when sentencing, the judge takes into account their splendid sense of humour. Chris Scaife, Jesmond * What's all this nonsense about that 66-year-old Romanian woman being the world's oldest mum? My mum's 77. Beat that. * Peter Andre might look smug in all his wedding pictures, but I'd just like to remind him that, as a Playboy reader, I have seen his wife's minge. He hasn't seen my wife's, so who's had the last laugh? P Boddington

No ,please dont tell me its bad ,as I was told Emirates is a good airline. I am stuck with it now as I cant change the ticket but. I will have the benefit of getting to Pattaya for a couple of months.

Shamas,This reminds me of a stay in hospital I had many years ago I was in for a minor sugical but some of my ward mate had more serious concerns.The problem was that 3 of the guys had had a stomach problem and all were given a large laxitive at the same time.They were all 3 hooked up to a drip on a pole on wheels and told that some exersise would help them overcome any tardiness in the laxitive ,now that in itself is not funny but I watched these 3 guys as they walked in smaller and smaller circles around the ward watching each other like hawks .The reason for this wariness was the fact that

Thanks guys ,I do not fancy Jomtiem don't know why I just don't .I always rent a bike as I cant walk very far due to Arthritis and hate relying on busses of any kind.I will probably go with one of the places with a small pool and just put up with it for this trip and try to book a little more in advance than I did this year.

End of april to end of june. isn't view taley in Jomtiem PS I should add I am a cheap charlie and want something around the 10-12000 baht mark

You will probably not get "english" anything in Pattaya but what is on offer is english recipe stuff and that is what you get anywhere not in england as the cost of transporting it is prohibitive.Try it and then complain not the other way round. I would like to add that anyone who thinks Crazy Daves is a good place for Breakfast must drink as much as Crazy Dave ,either that or enjoy eating sawdust maquerading as sausage

Hi, My usual place is seemingly full has anyone got any ideas about a "condo with a good sized pool wanted for 2 months" best location for me would be in or near soi Buakhow.There are loads of places with tiny pools but as I swim a minimum of 1K every day and often 2K a very small pool is boring very quickly,and I dont want to have to go to mikes every day either.Thanks

Good luck ,but why is there never anything on when I am in town .Maybe its because I only come at the end of April.

Hi I just booked a flight from Gatwick to BKK on 28th April for 2 months There are also flights from Heathrow at the same price, I chose Gatwick for flight times ,hope this helps some,I do wish I had made up my mind last month when I saw the £399 Quantas BA non stop flights but hindsight is always 20-20. Just to add the site I used was Opodo

And I am supposed to listen to one self serving politician when he bad mouthes another,get real its all theatre to these guys.

You only have look at how hard it is to get a visa for a Thai girl(or from any other country) to go to the UK for a holiday with her UK boyfriend to see how much harder we make it than do the Thais. I personaly think they do as well as they can be expected to, when you consider we are talking about people who are trying to circumvent their immigration rules.

I think so.

Don't understand your reply as its a return flight that is offered.
