Here's another Thai advert, notice the guy has a bottle of fish sauce next to his rice, one of the simple meals poor people eat.

Good report Cbrib, PA have certainly upped their game in recent times. They offer an LHR-MNL direct option here in the UK, which is a bit of a ball breaker at 14+ hours but ideal if you want to do it in one hit. We have used them recently and I also found their service pretty good, they have had a great deal of investment which is obviously now coming through and filtering down to the customer.

Might be best to ask the Manager , he's often in there during the day. PBG still has them as far as I know, which is a bloody long trek from Retox and probably not much help.

Safe flight Gus, let us know how you get on.

Lol you’re brighter than I am!. To be honest it’s not to everyone’s taste, but I am enjoying the series and it is “popcorn tv” for me. Sorry you don’t like it chap.

NP Residence Hotel in New Plaza
Butch replied to eyes4thais's topic in Hotel and Accommodation Questions
welcome to the forum, as you have just joined and the first thign you do is put up a negative review of a place which is a4 year old post anyway, some people might doubt your reasons for doing so. When you attempted to take the womans photo, why didn't you stand a distance away?. Also, if she kept your phone then that is theft, call the police and get it back. If the security staff witnessed the girl damaging the door, why didn't they stop her? why didn't you film it and why didn't you report the theft and damage to the Police?. Tell her to call immigration, get them down there and -
You only have to look at the amount of bias they put on the "question time" panel and cherry picked questions from the "audience" to see how impartial and fair the BBC, or indeed anyone connected to them are. given that the BBC have a 25% stake in Curve, you can draw your own conclusions. Like anything, sensationalism and titillating subjects will always attract viewers. Be comforted in the fact that anything said in an "interview" will be edited to make it more salacious or biased towards their own agenda, along with splicing and editing footage to paint you in the worst possible light.

bloody hell. This is going to be popular. Can't see why anyone would want to be overtly filmed in Pattaya, especially a tourist. They might get something from the Expats regarding everyday life, what brought them there and how they manage day to day, but as far as the scene goes, I can't think of any good reason why someone might want to be exposed on national TV.

Well I've just this minute finished watching S01E05 of the Haunting of hill house. Half way through the one character centred episode, I started to get bored , but stuck with it and was fine until the last 15 minutes which had me in goosebumps and on edge. Mrs Butch joined me for the last half hour and was pretty uninterested, but she ran her hand over my leg and said it's all tense and hairy! Honestly, yet again this delivered tension, unexpected scenarios and some good acting. The girl playing "Nell" is exeptional in this episode as it is centered on her but she delivers the atmosph

seriously MLC, nightime, dark alone, Add a stiff drink tho. i'm on S01 E3 and getting traumatised lol.

Right, I've a confession. following the hype I decided to watch "that haunting of Hill house" on Netflix. Being somewhat of a hard cunt, I decided to watch the first episode in the dark, lights off , alone in my house. Easy eh? You can fuck that off with a shitty stick. Half way through the second ep, alone and in the dark, Mrs butch and Jr turned up but I failed to see the car pulling up due to the curtains being closed. Butch Jr rapped on the window as she normally does and I fucking shit my pants, jumped up and shouted a few profanitites out while grabbing my remote by way of de

Important Contact Info for Pattaya Visitors
Butch replied to frostfire's topic in General Discussion about Pattaya
Might be of some use BFS (Bangkok Freight Services) - for lost luggage (provided you have reported it and filled out the relevant form at the Airport lost luggage counter) Very helpful Customer service (be polite it will get you all the help you could ever need). +66 (0) 2131 5555 - Ext. 5611, 5612, 5613, 5614 As a suggestion, maybe we could put the international "fraud" number of our Debit / Credit cards so should the worst happen we can call for free and get them cancelled. Barclays Debit Card Fraud / Cloning - UK number and then International from Mobile: Fraud relat -
£26, I'd pay that. there is free food and snacks, plus bottled beer and wine available, it's probably not a bad deal considering after a few beers and a bite to eat in Fullers yoo'd be looking around the same, possibly more. I might be wrong on the drought though having looked at some pics and a youtube review, I saw two taps on the bar , why not give them a call on 0208 976 7819

As far as I know, no draught, only a limited selection of bottled beers like Becks etc. I've also given it some thought for the future, it's about £40 for 3 hours isn't it?.

Good link. I've read the book as well, it goes into detail about how it was done and the logistics involved were mind boggling!. Interestingly, when the idea was mooted, they were looking for a refuelling rig for the Vulcan, but they couldn't find the one they knew existed for love or money, until someone noticed that it was being used as an ashtray in an RAF Officers mess...

I work in the Port industry, for my sins over 23 years now, dealing in Cargo not pax. Let us work on the assumption that Air Cargo from the EU and shipped cargo from the EU are all subject to the same rules and regs (Customs etc). Which they are, apart from the flying hazardous shit and oxidising agents on aeroplanes stuff. Given the somewhat large numbers involved regarding revenue it is not unreasonable to assume that certain plans are being made to expedite said foreseeable problems. Streamlining the process, taking into account potential issues, checking, double checking and t

Yep, one of her drivers picked me up on my last trip in July. Safe, responsible and overall, just the kind of stress free journey you want after losing luggage and patience with Cebu Pacific!!. A nice smile, a cold bottle of water and a chilled out, safe drive was just the tonic. It's odd that something as simple as a Taxi journey can make a difference to the trip. We always remember the bad ones, which might put a bloke on a negative vibe before he even enters funtown, which as we all know can, in a perverse kind of way, dictate our attitudes for a while. (Pattaya kind of does that to

They did indeed, and I'm no expert but the British Tanks were vastly outclassed by the German equivalent. The Cruisers were not reliable enough, and didn't have the penetration against the German armour, even with AP rounds, and it was really only with the introduction of the M4 Sherman , M3 Lee and the M3 Grant (the M3 Grant was a very similar tank but with a British turret) when the odds were finally somewhere near equalled. Surprisingly the M4 Sherman, most often associated with the European theatre of WW2 first saw action in North Africa in British hands. Needless to say there were a few s

OK, I know I'm a bit late, but the Queen of the Skies has recently hit her half century. Good article here, plus some period pics, my oh my, hasn't Airline travel changed in 50 years!!. https://www.treehugger.com/aviation/happy-50th-anniversary-boeing-747-it-changed-aviation-forever.html I've been lucky enough to fly on numerous 747's, a 747 SP (RFO / SOAF) , 747 200 (Pan Am) 747-300 (Qantas and SAA), 747 400 combi (EVA), Thai airways 747 "Phimara" (747 400). As time goes on there will be less and less flying commercially, at the time of writing only a few carriers operate passenge

Is it a direct flight KB?. My brother is moving to Sydney and we are hoping to visit next year, the thought of going direct from BKK after spending a couple of days there is appealing (it'll be cattle class though as there's 3 of us).

Hotel balcony falls - suicide or accident?
Butch replied to Yujin's topic in Hotel and Accommodation Questions
Tiled floors and water in SEA are a lethal combo. My friend smashed his rotator cuff after some rain had fallen, the driveway of his house is tiled. There are anti slip options available, but my preference is to chuck a few old towels on the floor of the bathroom and tread carefully. Even wearing flip flops can cause you to come to grief, doing the splits on a wet driveway / hallway while carrying in the shopping is no joke. As to the OP, I knew the FLB photographer (Howard) who sadly killed himself jumping from the Jomtien condo, and I also know of another guy who was found at the bot
