How us Brits could not make a V8 is beyond me but Daimler got close with their beautiful 2.5 and 4.5 Hemi V8.

Aston Martin V8 ? original design by a resident Polak but still arguably a British engine.

Must say the Daimler V8 is 1 of the most beautiful sounding engines ever fired up. Designed by Edward Turner who also designed the Ariel Square Four and Triumph Speed Twin motorcycle engines. Never heard the 4.5 but the 2.5 in the Daimler 250 and Dart was a cracker. If only they'd of made a Daimler version of the E Type with a tuned 4.5.

How long have Iranians been Arabs ? When I went to school they were Persians.

The Iranians who caused the Iran Embassy siege in London were Arabs.

Are people seriously trying to draw a parralel between the EDL having the odd scuffle when attacked by anti fascist hypocrites and islamic terrorists who have murdered dozens in the UK alone over the past 10 years.

Last time I went to Hua Hin taking my GF, her Mum and Stepfather we were subjected to a police raid at the Hilton Pub. After being searched and talken down to we were kicked out into the night at 1am with nowhere else to go to. The beach at Hua Hin is pretty rubbish too, covered in horse crap and piss. The only reason I'd go back is it makes a convenient place to stop halfway between the drive from Pattaya to the South.

Is there any actual evidence he was hit with something and didn't hit his head when falling backwards ?

Yes I certainly would, they'd have a great time with all the things to do there and within a short distance. Pattaya beach might not be anywhere near as nice as those in the Andaman but at least it's got a beach unlike the upcountry 3 buffalo moo barns most of those bitching about Pattaya seem to live in.

The denizens of Birmingham are going to be rather surprised that it's in northern England.

It's north of Watford aint it

Sorry but the whole thing sounds like a cock and ball story to me.

am i the only one who doesnt give a crap? Obviously he was no better than her

Really, so who did he (allegedly) murder then ?

So, about Andy Murry ... will it be the same old catch cry.

When he wins ... he's English, but when he bums out ... he's Scottish?

Who told you that crock of 5h1t, personly I dont know 1 English person who wants the drama queen to win.

I'll say 1 thing for him, after watching his balls keep popping out his shorts yesterday it appears he doesn't have the traditional Scotch short arms and deep pockets.

Castration does not 'cure' pedophilia.

It does if you allow them to bleed out after!

Just watched "Crime Watch" in BBC.

I dont think THAILAND is the worse one.

Well it's got a murder rate more than 4 times that of the UK, higher even than the USA.

Sounds like he was high on something.

Yea, the roof of the building!

The English bring their ability to moan.....and the Scots bring their ability to annoy the English.

I'll get my coat

Dont forget the Scots uncanny ability to time to perfection the need to empty their bladder as the exact same time it's their round.

Customs officials nab Ghanaian drug smuggler

The Nation

BANGKOK: -- A Ghana national was arrested in Suvarnabhumi Airport on Monday for allegedly trying to smuggle in a kilogram of "ice" flakes worth around Bt3.5 million on the street. The man had allegedly swallowed 60 small bags containing the drug.

Acting on tip-offs coupled with closer inspection, customs officials stopped Kwabena Dwamena, 35, after he disembarked the Ethiopian Airlines flight from the Ethiopian capital Addis Ababa. Officials searched his body and luggage before insisting that he undergo an x-ray, which revealed 60 small bags of the drug in his stomach.

Kwabena has been charged with trying to smuggle in illegal drugs with the intent to sell and is currently in custody of the police Narcotics Suppression Bureau.

Is see the Chap 2nd from right is doing that finger and thumb gesture beloved of Thai Teens

Maybe the Teen Gang had seen the recent BBC Panorama programme about racism in The Ukraine and was getting payback for those Asians that got a beating.

I'm fairly anti- UK monarchy...The Thai one is great

What's the difference then ?

Start her off on a CBR150. What's the name of the Facebook group for these Girls Riders btw ?

Video looks very fake, not a drop of blood or any marks on the Kaeks body. Those kicks looked about as genuine as the wrestling I used to watch in the 70's.

does switzzerland rate increased warnings as well?

28 killed in horror school coach crash | The Sun |News

Why should it when it has a road death rate 4 times less than Thailand ? less in fact than the UK!

Yes there is, see it in a Jean-Claude Van Damme film, Kickboxer I think.

"Black money scam" "will be deported to his home country and put on a blacklist", too much racism in this article!

Ride your bike straight at them with your best war face on!

One of "New Labours" New Brits

Good to hear. As expected, it's northern European warships and special troops who are taking the initiative and doing the tough work. With the exception of one Indian engagement, I don't recall hearing of any Asian military being engaged in such tough jobs. Certainly not Chinese navy.

The Thai navy has been sending ships to be part of the anti piracy task force for 2 years now and have engaged pirates and rescued attacked ships. In fact the Thai navy are the current commanders of the international anti piracy task force and pursing a captured oil tanker as we speak, although the link is in Bankok Post so I can't post it. Other Asian commanders of the task force have been from Singapore and South Korea. The Chinese have sent vessels to the region as well but they operate on their own. China has actually advocated attacking the pirate bases in Somalia which no one in the west seems to want to do.

Do the Thai Navy ask for tea money from the somali pirates then send them on their way ?
