You will find a lot of the mafia in Pattaya has a tie-in with the police.

And he only needs one shot!!!

I know there is some Indian mafia operating in Pattaya.

All the British Airways Concordes are preserved. Of the Air France Concordes,, all but two of them have been preserved. F-BTSC was destroyed in the Paris air crash) F-BVFD was stripped for spares in 1982 and scrapped in 1994 There is even plans to to restore one of the Concordes to flying condition with the goal of flying for the opening ceremony of the 2012 London Olympics.

Just to pay for the bar you need to be making 600 baht every day. Do-able? Probably, but it's not in the best of locations. and there are a lot of extra costs on top that need to be considered. Location, location, location is the best principle for choosing where to have a bar. Otherwise you can struggle. I used to have a bar on New Plaza...... not a bad location, but it was hard to compete with the bars down the middle. I was lucky, we sold that bar for a profit. On moving to a complex on Second Road we got much more passing trade and didn't need to compete with the neighbouring bars so much. Yes, the costs increased a bit, but the increase in turnover was able to cover those costs easily.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Google is your friend!

I use OpenOffice if I need to use an office suite, which isn't very often.

A350 Production has started!!! I won't make a BigD prediction about when it will fly or when first delivery will be...... But it's nice to see production has started.!

And some photos Around 10000 people turned up to see it arrive. Shame about the Cathay Pacific dinosaur taxiing past the spectator viewing area just as the Emirates A380 was landing. I noticed that they used A6-EDL, their newest A380 in service!!! Using the A380 on the Manchester route give a big increase in capacity without having to add an extra daily flight. Well done Emirates!!!!

Exactly!!!

Now I can fly A380 Manchester - Dubai - Bangkok.... certainly beating being crammed into a 777!!!

Do you mean to say he is another plagiarist, just like BigBunky!!!

Why post in the past tense? Testing hasn't finished yet......

He might be a hedge fund manager, but he isn't a very good speller..

Yes, you are clueless... clueless about engineering! Your post was a dig at us Europeans and our engineering and manufacturers..

The engine was on a test bed........... getting tested. Would you rather an engine fail on a test bed or in flight. You obviously have little or no idea about testing. Testing is not only used to ensure something works, but how long something will work for before failure - from these figures maintenance schedules can be planned.

Shouldn't Boeing perform "Quality Inspections" before actually joining the assemblies together? Yet again Boeing use the slippery shoulder technique to point the blame at somebody other than themselves.

Shoddy Quality control again....

Sorry to hear about the problems Ron. It is a shame you have had to close. I enjoyed the experience of running my bars ( New Plaza then Soi 9) until we had a change of plans. Looks like we made the right move since Soi 9 has since closed down. Good luck for the future...... whatever you decide to do.

Ha ha............ Real football...........!!!! Rugby is way better and more physical than that pansy game called American Football........ American Footballers wear way too much protection and have to have a breather after every single play!!!

The European stars that end their days in playing in the USA are doing it for one thing only........ the money!!! And if the USA isn't interested in soccer, then why did the Glaziers take-over Man Utd? I suppose you Americans went crazy over this world class event:-

Soccer is a global game, played and watched by millions. It doesn't need to crack the American market. American football will never be a global game...... And if soccer is boring then watching American Football is worse than watching paint dry!!!

OI....leave bananas out of it!!!!

Not really a new order..... just an announcement of an existing order.
