Erm has anyone spotted that the chap hasn't actually been found guilty of commiting a crime in Thailand? Chillage in Vilage posters.Also I think the thread should be renamed "Fugutive Thai Dog Gang Member arrested by Mad Belgium Immigration"
-
It's a shame that the OP has confused the issue with his inconsistency of detail because there is no doubt many cases of thai wives being mis-treated by their husbands in the Uk just as there are many cases of english wives being mistreated and visa versa and this thread doesn't do any favours for a serious subject.
I suspect the vast majority of thais landing in the Uk have no idea of the massive life change they are about to encounter nor do they give any thought to their legal rights when in the UK.
Perhaps OP could continue his fine work and produce an idiots guide to settling in the UK (making sure he gets it proof read prior to printing)

I knew we were going to win the ashes, I said 100 or so days ago that we have already won it.
I was so confident (in the first few pages) I said if we lose I wont ever come back to Thaivisa.
Its all over already
Well done, what a wonderful post.No doubt Ponting found inspiration in your previous post to stir his team on to what was without doubt a sensational victory."C'mon boys this one's for Donz"

PS
Can you tell me who will win the FA Cup this year please?

England are quoted at 6/1 to win the second test. I believe that is excellent value.
With the second test beginning on the 1st December in Adelaide, I think England can scrape a win to equal the series.
7/1 at premierbet.com
I have just stuck on 20 quid...
I'd go for a draw, when we learn to pick our shots better and pick a team a team who can bowl their top order out then thats the time to be thinking of victory.
Where's siam?

On the subject of cricket coverage, I've asked UBC to consider making the ESPN/STAR India feed available to subscribers as an alternative to ESPN/STAR SE Asia. I doubt if anything will come of it, but there's no harm in asking.
We watched the Ashes last year in the boozer, and it was an ESPN India production, even though it was pay-for-view.
Who won?

Australia is the best, tahts all there is to it.
You cant change facts
I like this post . especially if you pronounce "You cant" in some sort of wide boy cockney accent and then picture yourself talking to Siam.
Yep you can't change facts.

So those that claim Daryl Hair is the bastian of fair play and has the moral high ground - as all those that responded to the previous thread on this topic -
please explain how this sits with your previous comments!
In his letter, which was released to the media, Hair said: " I am prepared to retire/stand down/reqlinquish my position on the elite panel to take effect from August 31 2006. This payment is to be the sum of $500,000 details of which must be kept confidential by both parties. This sum to be paid directly into my account by August 31, 2006. ICC may announce the retirement in anyway they wish but I would prefer a simple "lifestyle choice" as this was the very reason I moved from Australia to settle in the UK three years ago."
Perhaps old Daryl was a bit pissed off with the circus of the last week, and just decided to milk it for what he thought he could get ?
Who knows what has been going on behind the scenes? I wouldn't look at this in isolation - you need to keep your eye on the bigger picture.
I'm sticking to my original comments and would add that I think good old Daryl is worth every penny in fact can we organise a TV whip round?
I'm sure you'd be the first to contribute Mittheip

I dont actually think the Pakistan team has said anything to imply that Hair is a racist, maybe some people at one time connected to the team have - but that is entirely different!
and they didn't refuse to come out to play because they 'disagreed with the umpire' - they refused to play because they were branded of cheating! surely you can see the difference?
Having said that i think they handled the situation badly - but should the umpires decision be final even if the umpire himself is going against the spirit of the game - an umpire is not god and to parrot that line out as a defence doesn't take into account exceptional circumstances!
Hi Mittheimp
I'd love to get in to a debate about the rights and wrongs of what has happened but I'm far too Lazy.However I think too much is being played on this 'we're not cheats/honour card' that the pakistanis are playing and until they change the rules to accommodate the 'exceptional circumstances 'then isn't the umpires decision final?
The real question is - will the ODIs going ahead?

where is the Pie Boy.......must be still picking himself up off the floor after England losing in the football World Cup......
R u still around Siam? Someone told me you were a figament of Lampards imagination.
I've spent the last few months trying to flog those remaining "Whitewash - Aussies to win ASHES 2005" T-shirts that you sent over.I'm glad you didn't get those 'SIAM got laid!' T-shirts printed --Trading Standards would have been on to us in a flash!
I await your comment dear fellow.
-
It would seem that regardless of the manner of their call, the umpires acted within the laws and spirit of the game.
Refusing to come out to play because they disagreed with the umpires was a very poor decision by the Pakistani team and management.
Why didn't thay simply carry on playing, beat England and then lodge a formal protest? I also don't like the idea that teams can request that certain umpires do not umpire their games.To top it off the Pakistani team have implied that umpire Hair is a racist!

5. best england formation , robinson , g. neville , JT , ferdinand , A.cole , Scott Parker , Joe Cole, Michael Carrick , Steven Gerrard , Aaron Lenon , Rooney
Looks pretty, but what formation would they play? It would never work- good players don't always make a good team and you'll need to place a centre forward in there to play off Shrek.Its a shame Ashton is injured because he could have given us a new dimension.
Drop carrick & parker from your team & start again.

Cheers guys,
Can anyone else confirm or not, as to wether the sole custody document can be done at the local ampur?
Mr BoJ; me and wifey sorted the sole custody docs out at the local ampur so it certainly can be done.
I think we have been blessed with a great deal of luck as both of our kids have settled really well,I would take your time over choice of school and look at what support they can offer to your daughter in terms of additional english classes 1:1 teaching etc.I would ask about what funding is avaiable for them to provide this support and what experiance they have had.
There are also a number of excellent programmes for teenagers new to the country that are run in a sunny metropolis not too far from Dale - I can give you details of if your interested.
Best of Luck

The Fly is holding the Flag...bring on the Japanese.....
Croatia/Brasil are who you should be worrying about!!!
[/quote
Brasil
......but we shall make the final 16....and hopefully play England...Looking at the draw I think the only way England can play your lot is in the semis or the final,lets be honest the Aussies have got a half decent team but they won't be joining England in the semis.
Enjoy your 3 games then put the flag away.

Where is that Pie Boy....
I've been researching my family tree to see if i've got any Pakistani ancestors.

Well, it's her loss - I'm meeting a guy from the Bangkok Post and his wife for dinner at the Holiday Inn and she could have joined us but now she can't - I'm not <deleted>*king calling her now, the sucess or failure of this thread depends on her doing her bit also, otherwise how can this story write itself.

OK I'm bored now, can we have him banned again.

It will be good to see the aussies at the world cup and if drawn in a decent group they may do ok,especially since most of the team have been shaped into decent players whilst playing in the English Premeirship.

Keepin' it real, Thailand 2005!
Is that possible ?

I miss Siam, can we have him back.

If they HADN'T decided that the 7-11 displays were illegal I would have to change the wording under my avatar.
I'd change your avatar, The Public Health Ministry will be prosecuting you next.

I think it's really cool that you old guys have learnt to use computers, can you tell us what it was like growing up during the great war?
Also at what age do you start to smell of pee?
Seriously though I think old people are great.

Jesse:
You are a big bore! Should have stayed home playing your Nintendo Gamecube! At least thats something you and I could discuss. This discussion of yours is a waste of bandwidth and I am so surprised at the amount of people who give you the time of day. Your story is stale.
Turok
tell us your story Turok ??
I think he's jealous of all the attention TV's adopted son is gettin'
I'm lookin' forward to the "I've fallen in love with a mamasan" thread.

Congratulations on beating a team who have won only two of their last 23 test.Whats next a ODI re-match with the mighty Bangladesh?

The boy will be fine, I think he's got one helluva an adventure ahead of him and I look forward to hearing more.
As for now get yourself a beer,chill and finish sewing that patch on your rucksack.
New Evidence In Former Thai Pm Somchai's Case

I disagree with your statement"lowest ones on the rung, not anyone of importance" afterall the lowest of the rung' have significant importnace as they dealt to many many people who previous Thai governments have often regarded as the 'the lowest of the rung' . 2500 innocent people did not die, get over it.
