  1. WHAT??? The D40x is at the bottom of Nikons DSLR range - I thought some one like yourslef who always boasts about "stuff" would have been buying a D3! I've just got myself a D200...
  2. My lips are sealed!!! So you'll have to visit the bar to find out
  3. The Banana bar is open again....... But I am hating being stuck in the UK at the moment
  4. Banana bar is closing for a few days........ Unfortunately I have to fly back to the UK , and the GF is heading up north on a recruitment trip for some farm-fresh talent, and a chance to see the family. But the bar will be open again before the end of next week, hopefully with some farm fresh cuties
  5. As the night progressed a few of the local barowners visited to check out the new kid on the block and by end of the evening the bell was rung quite a few times A good first night was enjoyed...... And I'll try and get some pics posted soon
  6. I would like to thank everyone for their good luck wishes, and those who called in to see us.
  7. Incidentally....... if there are any cider drinkers out there, bottled Strongbow will be available Unfortunately, I am a red badge!
  8. It's the last but one bar on the right-hand side walking away from Second Road. Well, I have paid for it! And have spent a little bit of money getting it redecorated and such like. It was the GFs idea to put "British Bar"...... but, yes, everyone is welcome! There might be a little trip report about the adventures of buying a bar, and all the grief that has gone with it. And I am expecting to be called a fool!
  9. There is a new bar opening on Pattaya New Plaza which is situated on Second Road opposite Sois 7 and 8. It's name????? Banana Bar All BMs are welcome to come and take a look, and have a drink of course. The usual selection of beers are available and along with good selection of spirits. It will be opening on 5th March 2008....... unless there is a major catastrophe
  10. See you next week with a bit of luck..... I will be back in town
  11. All the rooms I have stopped in have King size beds...... and I have stopped there 4 times
  12. Have you noticed how quiet the 3 stooges have gone on this subject????
  13. Just over a week ago booked a trip with Emirates flying from Manchester 24th Feb and returning 8th March. The price I paid was £622 inc taxes. Just checked today and the lowest available fare for those dates was £1393!!!! Up until now haven't paid more than £530. Using my Emirates airmiles have booked a 5 weeker in June for a total cost of £105 inc taxes. I needed to buy 3100 miles, but it was certainly worth it.
  14. And the big question is - How long will it take Boeing to get the NightmareLiner certified???? I don't think anybody can answer that question.... not even Boeing.
  15. Oh dear!!! 787 delayed again!!! And will this be the last delay announced? probably not. And yet again Boeing is trying to blame everyone else but themselves. It is 5 months since the 787 was unveiled to the public and they still haven't got all the parts to finish the first one.
  16. You seem to have a sense of humour deficiency BigD If definitely looks like the Skyslops....... not the most inviting of places on Second road. The way you go on about the place you would think it was the Dusit! It isn't, it is a dodgy looking cheap guest house.
  17. Skyslops is on the wrong side of Second Road to Soi 6....... which means having to dodge all the motorcycles and cars on a suicide mission to get across the road, just to get to Soi 6! You can't beat the Queen Vic! Stopped there 4 times, great value, good food and great rooms.
  18. Not going back to the Queen Vic? Shame on you!
  19. There is an under 3 hour connection which I have always managed to get a seat on. EK384 is the best DXB-BKK flight to get when flying in from the UK - gets you into BKK for midday. Look for it and it will come up
  20. No Mongo.... it was you who came out with the "one" in October statement....... I said Emirates will have the A380s flying on DXB - JFK in October.... You are blind Mongo!!!
  21. Flew Emirates from Birmingham - Dubai - Bangkok..... good flight with decent times, good airline. Have flown KLM, on Newcastle - Amsterdam - Bangkok. Will never fly them with again on the Bangkok route..
  22. The DXB-JFL diagram requires 4 aircraft to operate it. That means Emirates will have taken delivery of at least 4 A380s by October 1st 2008 which is the date the route is going A380. The Emirates A380s will be operating on the LHR-DXB route prior to then..... How many Nightmareliners will be delivered this year?????? Considering it hasn't even flown and there is only 359 days left, I would say it is very doubtful a delivery will happen! Mr Mongo........ you refuse to see..... so you are blind!!!
