Wheres the rubbing hands gleefully smilie.
I can help you Billy. You seem to have some money.
If you forward 100,000 baht I will get you into a TEFL course here in Thailand. I will also be able to put you in contact with some schools when you arrive.

any coopers pale possible
The promoter is called Carl Should serve Carlsburgers
Arh, Carlsberg and Coopers Pale. Being an Adelaide boy I love my Coopers.
Can you get Coopers here in LOS? I saw a fair amount of it in the supermarkets in Shanghai but not here
Not that I've seen. But surely, if its in Shanghai they can get it here. I suppose it would be expensive.
Might be worth asking The Coopers if they are thinking of expanding their market.

Errrrrrrg, wheres the hangover smiley?!
Just wanted to let everyone know that I popped in the Liquid Lounge last night with my mate and was pretty impressed with the place, looks kinda classy and plush without being OTT. Payed my 100 Baht and totally got waaaaay more than my moneys worth (Ah the perks of being a gal!)
Was very quiet as the manager guy's only got a licence to open 'till midnight, but well worth a visit if you wanna hear some groovy tunes and sit in a comfy cosy chair or have a bit of a boogey
Thanks Carl for a cool night, no doubt will up that way again soon!
Yeah, need that hangover smiley too. Shud of stayed on the Heineken. LOL.
It was nice to meet you and Lola. I now have faces to names.
Hopefully, next time more peeps from TV will make the trip down.
Cheers

Sexist pricing policy! I'd give it a miss..............
Guess you don't go out much then. Happens all over the place. Still 400bht is cheap for men. Look beyond the pricing. Its all about enjoying ones life.

Oh Oh - I've got a horrible feeling that your taste in music may be as bad as your taste in beer!
Thats the only beer available.
Bit of my background. Use to own a hotel in Adelaide with the largest range of beers available on premise. 162 different brews. Heineken is as sessional beer. If you know what that means. A great beer in my mind would be Little Creatures from Freeo or some of the James Squire Range, other great beers from O/seas would be Chimay, Aventinus, Trumar Pils, Maudite to name a few.
Umm, can see a new thread coming on. Beers of the World.
Oh, and as for my music taste. It is my taste. I think its still a free world. For all I know you could like Spice Girls. To me thats fine each to his own.

Wot! No *chang*?
Yee gods!
Yeah sorry but Heiny is a good brew and if you drink enough you'll have the same rotten hangover as with Chang.

For pubs and bars, 2 am closing time is not really TOO bad, BUT for danceclubs, it is pretty bad ! I mean, in most cities in the world, danceclubs start getting crowded after midnight or even 1 am.
Cheers,

Cheerless Leader doesn't dance
What not even on the inside.
Having run nightclubs and hotels back in Oz. I found even if a person was just tapping their glass was a sign they were having a good time. I never danced in my own venues except a small boogie behind the decks. Used to get asked why I don't dance. I said "I do but only on the inside"
I think in the long term say 3-5 years this tightening up on the Entertainment Industry could have some serious side effects to the tourist industry. We'll just have to wait and see.

Come listen to Dj Nomad a.k.a. me play a set of chilled house, funky house and grooves.
A chance to meet up perhaps with other TV peeps.
From 9pm until 12midnight all you can drink base spirits and draught beer.

Nice cozy couches and a great looking bar with great friendly service. One of the finer venues in Bangkok.

Might sound stupid.
There is a place up the hill, I think its called The Windmill. Run by a pommie bloke. Had the best ###### English Breakfast. Nice thick pork sausage, baked beans, best looking bacon, fried tomatoe and a cup of tea for 90baht.
Really nice bloke runs it. Also happy to have a chat. Does good trade with poms and the occassional Ozzie.
We always go there everytime we are in Pattaya riding the big bikes.

I just buy the stuff at the back. Hoping that they DO rotate. Then check the use by date. Was sick of getting milk etc which was going to go out of date in a day.

Well, you'd have never known what with this thunder lightening and rain we are having today. My wife hates it because it stops her from working. Just hope some of it ends up being useful.

Cheers in advance for the constructive responses.

If you are ever up in Chiang Mai pop into the Rim Ping supermarket. Vegemite, Australian cuts of meat, oxo cubes, Branston Pickle etc. only thing is it is expensive.
Them's with the cravings will pay
Gotta say I'm happy with Villa. They got Vegemite, Picalilli (same makers of Branston Pickle) and its abt same as what I paid in Aust. They even got Villi's pies and pasties from lil ol Adelaide. Mmm. Still like my peanut paste and vegemite toast for breakfast.
Can't find good hard liqourice here. I get that posted over every couple of months but will bring back a ###### of a lot when I go home for a holiday. Bit worried. EVERYTHING in Aust is so expensive. LOL. Told my wife if we eat out in a THai Restaurant in Aust gonna cost a small fortune.
