every charitable organization in the world needs help...kids are starving and living in poverty in every major city in the world. I don't read many posts from punters saying "I gave such and such to Save the Children"...but they do pipe up to make sure everyone knows they give to a Pattaya orphanage or the Camillian Center. if you want to donate to a needy orgainization...fine....do it...I just don't see the need to blow your own horn.

JMHO...a falang that brings his roller blades to Pattaya ....he's a member of the ever growing "look at me" brigade...skating between traffic on 2nd Road of all places...I'm sure his insurance carrier is aware of his peculiar attempt at physical fitness. ...that is...if he even has insurance.

just got promoted to first m8 on an East African cruise ship....

y don't you hire an agent....SPAM.

many of the same Beach Road daytime girls can be seen working the evening shift at Marine, PBG and cruising Walking Street...

that sounds like a pretty good deal..

ToffeeAl...thanks for the update ...a year goes by pretty fast m8....don't forget to smell the roses and enjoy life at home...you can grow old very quickly continually counting down the days until the next Thailand trip.

then why are you asking others if the time to buy is right ...seems you have it all sussed already.

are you partaking in the pizza and scotch? if so....I'll start the RIP thread right now.....think of it as a Talk first... you get to read the condolences to yer family and thank the posters b/4 you kick off

great World Series moment from the hometown radio station....Dave Fleming and Mike Krukow...of KNBR.... calling Edgar Renteria's 3 run homerun..... MLB still doesn't allow any game highlights to be posted on youtube...

It's 3-1 Giants in the top of the 9th joe...

A 21-year-old, Madison Baumgardner,...3 months in the majors...shuts out the vaunted Texas offense for 8 innings...eeegadz...Buster Posey "hands down rookie-of-the-year" smacks a 400+ homerun....I'm smelling victory tonight against Cliff Lee. The Giants are fearless. This "Ashcon" video is a youtube hit...almost 1.5 million hits....Go Giants!

this is a feeling most Giants naysayers have.... American League fans and people who don't follow the Giants...don't realize that the Giants have the best pitching staff... in baseball...and the Giant pitchers are the reason the Texas bats are silent. Giant pitchers have shut down the bats of Atlanta, Philadelphia... and now they have silenced the vaunted Ranger offense.

a moment from game 1 that sent chills up me spine...84-year-old Tony Bennett accompanied by 43,500 baseball fans....

JMHO....take away the TV and attached restroom ....which, btw, spells stubbed toe or broken ankle/foot to me....and it looks like yer average soi 6 short time room. it might be different for a visiting ex-pat...but, to a two week millionaire...it's a depressing looking room.

No, I don't agree...It's your freaking life on the road...and here we are supposed to get in a car with someone who has no track record in hauling people to the airport...no info from those who have used her taxi, no info on insurance, reliability or fitness to drive. We're all supposed to line up and use her service because she's an ex hooker trying to earn a living and strap in for a white knuckle race... 70/75mph... 90 miles to the airport...while "Hall-O-Fame" board members endorse her service that they have never used.... and groupie newbies reply..."sounds good...thanks for the info"

wants out of the game? By the look of that second picture...her only option is to find another line of work

you might take a look at the Marriott next to Royal Garden Plaza......Emma even set up shop there for a while..... at least she said she did

You can always keep yer fingers crossed that your flight is delayed again and they re-book you Lufthansa and Thai

I felt sorry for the reviewer who lost his bag with Aerosvit...and Aerosvit didn't reply to his emails asking where his stuff was for two months.... he later found himself traveling to Honduras where he spied a bunch of poor kids wearing the same clothes he had in his lost suitcase.

you're an exception m8

you've described Americans perfectly....Democratic thinking and voting Americans that is for a description of Americans who vote the republican ticket....please see your description of UK citizens that live in London.

Have a great time Alf ...glad you're doing well
