  1. No licence, no insurance cover if you have an accident. The insurance company will refuse to pay out. Get licence and buy first class insurance if a new bike. I would also add no driving after dark. At least for a while until she has gained some road experience.
  2. Isle of Dogs...That brought back memories. Waiting forever for the 227 bus on a freezing afternoon after school sports.
  3. Watch out for the elephants and tigers. ????
  4. They must keep it for themselves as the only American Cheese we ever see in supermarkets here or in Europe is floppy, yellow 4" square leaves separated by plastic film. To be fair, lots of European companies now make it too..
  5. Water rationing? As you turn into the road opposite Mit Samui Restaurant on Chaweng Lake Road, that leads to the temple, there is what looks to be a 10cm black plastic pipe that is leaking badly and has beenfor at least five days.
  6. Isn't Cottage Pie made with beef rather than pork? If lamb, it's Shepherd's Pie. Each to their own I suppose. i always make Cottage Pie with beef, adding onion, carrot and peas to the mix. Once assembled in the dish, I sprinkle grated cheddar and black pepper on top of the mash before putting it in the oven on a high temp for a few minutes to melt the cheese and crisp the potato. This thread has put me in the mood to make one tomorrow. Thanks. Some others I have cooked recently were; chicken and chorizo jambalaya, chinese style chicken curry, sausage, chorizo, kale and potato hash, sweet potato, chick pea and lentil curry.
  7. 15,000 baht? Blimey! You have certainly gone all in. would take me a year to get through 15,000 bahts worth of books.
  8. So facial scan introduced for increased security, but not for foreigners. See the quoted get out clause above if you get scammed. This must be Thailand 4.0.
  9. This guy seems to have some idea of pulling himself out of a slump.: But joking aside: I think alcohol is the wrong way to go. It is a depressant. Look at your normal day and what you do? Has it become routine? Propping up a bar? Or plonked in front of the tv all day, glass in hand? Try a change of scenery. Even a long weekend away can do wonders. Find some form of exercise that you enjoy and doesn't seem a chore. Keep yourself occupied so you don't have time to dwell on things. HTH
  10. Time for the police to review their procedures in such cases. Would a taser have helped subdue someone in a drug fuelled (I presume Yaba) frenzy? RIP.
  11. Depends if there's another Joe Ferrari on the force.

  13. Not only that, but he was probably putting the lives of the rescuers at risk.
  14. You look google Haze Outdoors on Youtube. He did a series of videos when he did the Cape Wrath Trail.
  15. There's a build going on next to me. After they poured the concrete floors, while they were still wet they went over them with what looked like a large spinning brush or blade. I asked the builder what it was and he told me that it levelled out all the high spots and left a nice smooth flat surface, which made it far easier for the tiler. It was quite a large area though.
  16. What's that cutter he is using around 5:20? Is it some sort of thermic lance? Wonder why he wasn't using an oxy-acetylene burner like he does later.
  17. I watched one last night. Have to say, he has a weird accent.
  18. It was probably thinking, "Damn farangs. Get everywhere. I can't even chew the cud in peace."
  19. Look out for the next raid...Pot the brown.
