How about showing some tolerance Pete?

I think any post where you get an accurate answer is a good result. Despite her faults, TV rarely fails to deliver.

As for posters searching for that 100+ response "holy grail" post, it seems to me they end up cluttering the forum with a whole load of codswallop along the way.

Thai cops risking their life in the line of duty speaks volumes. I'm glad to read that the injured police officer didn't die as a result.

It depends on whether you want to be disappointed early or disappointed later.

Lucky break, 5-7 years in the rather salubrious and forgiving surrounds of an Aussie women's prison.

Never heard of Beckham??

SYDNEY, Australia -- David Beckham overcame an injury scare to score a trademark free-kick, but his LA Galaxy side were beaten 5-3 by Sydney FC in an exhibition match on Tuesday.

May I ask, what is the drug she's addicted to? It's hard to get your head around someone being able to spend and use $3000 a month on drugs in Asia.

No doubt the aussie team were nobbled by beautiful women and cheap beer... Shame Thailand SHAME!!

Never mind gents.... here it is.... OH TALAY

That sweet young girl has grown up to be a bitter old tart... but we still love her.

(Great pictures Piker).

The song you are talking about (courtesy of my wife) is " Oh talay " which would be translated something like 'Oh the Sea'.

Thanks so much Jet... now a 6 pack of larger to the first person to point me to a URL where I can download, or at least listen to this song

Do like a bit of spice in the old meal but stop short at eating the old raw chillies dipped in that brown paste.

I'm with you, I love the spicy stuff, but not those dishes that're just plain cruel

Don't fret about the second world war, most Thais know nothing about it anyway.

I don't think it's atop the list of lessons taught in German schools these days either... am I wrong?

They are just people same as me and you!

somebodies son- -somebodies uncle.

They cannot all be gorgeous but they all have feelings so leave em alone eh

I find them amusing but I don't feel threatened by their existence. I reckon they must have (or once had) watermelon-sized balls, to live (in Pattaya at least) a life of being true to themselves. All this under the ever watchful eye of endless people who just don't get it.

So, more power to 'em I say.

I agree, Agoda are competitive against online operators such as Asiarooms and Chiangmai-online every now and then, and always worth comparing prices through.

What a great thread... I have a thai song in mind which, when I hear it takes me to a happy place. Only wish I knew the name of it.

The only info I have is that it's basically taught in kindergarten, it's very old/rustic, it's about the sea/fishing/sailing, and there's certain arm movements that go with it.. like making the waves of the ocean with your arms...

Any geniuses out there that can answer this one with such sketchy info??

Some words to it might be something like... "talay saen ngarm fa si kram sod sai mong hen rua bai laen yu nai talay"

How's that warm, losers piss tasting?

Yeah...I'll wrap it and keep it for you to come cry on my shoulder in a coupla years.

wanna tissue?

A solid win for Rudd and Labour, let the efforts to seriously address climate change in our own backyard begin.

At least their fans aren't fair weathered and fickle

I haven't used Scandibar yet, but have every intention of doing so. Emails are replied to and the rates seem keen.

Anyone have any comment on this outfit?

Leave your abode by 7am.

Does anyone know the latest guess-timate for the completion of the road-works en route?

Thanks fella's appreciate your answers, I'll call him a few days beforehand.

Just to add, that of the dozens of drivers I've had take me to Pattaya, only one of them was a dead-set <deleted> loon who seemed hellbent on NOT being overtaken, even if it meant winding the old Peugeot off the clock and then some.

All the other drivers have been compulsive ON-OFF-ON-OFF-ON-OFF-ON ad infinitum with the accelerator. It truly is good sign of a poor driver.

... still, better that than a lead footed, Nelson Piquet wannabe in my opinion.

PS After my wild ride, I started buying the drivers a bottle of cold green tea instead of red bull.
