  1. I was taught by a guy called Neil from Mermaids, couldnt have been better, he was saying he'd set up by himself last time we spoke though.

    The first time we did an openwater dive, there was 1 instructor and 4 trainee divemasters who were also acting as instructors, + a friend and I who were doing the open water course. :o

  2. It depends what you class as murder.. If cases such as being shot in the back 5 times and the police then finding a gun in the suicide victims hand are included then if would be fair to say, 12+ are Britons are murdered every year? Probably a lot more if you take Pattaya into account, im sure I could trawl throught the PCN website and find more than 12 "very questionable deaths" in this area alone.

    If so..

    60m (UK population) / 728 (number murdered in the UK) = 82400/1 chance of being murdered in the UK.

    and

    360k (Thailand visitors) / 12 (# Thailand murders) = 30000/1 chance of being murdered in Thailand.

    Figures based on yr 2000 stats :D

    I forgot to add: Whats the average length of stay for these 360'000 tourists? About a 12th of a year probably? add that to the above calculations and its fookin shockin :o

  4. I guess those figures kinda disagree with those who say Thailands as safe/safer than western countries. Not to mention all the unincluded "suicides" for Thailands stat (but this happens everywhere in the world aswell) :o

    @ a glance it looks like the murder rate will be at least 10x higher than the UK. :D

  5. Joey Boy, Could you please let me know how you can change the traceroute protocol to make it a ICMP echo request.

    There will be plenty of software out there which uses proper ICMP ping echo-requests, rather than UDP with a increasing TTL to elicit an ICMP time-exceeded response.

    From a command prompt however try

    pathping ***.***.***.***

    :o

  6. Sitting down having a drink in Chatuchak, approached by a young Thai who shows me my driving licence and asks "This you ?"....then produces my wallet from which he had taken it and looked around to see who matched the photo. I had dropped it when I was paying for something. Credit cards, heap of cash etc, totally refused any reward but accepted a coke!

    I thank taxin had someone call these in and its just a bunch or bull !

    yep, sounds a bit fishy to me also :o

  7. A woman was very distraught over the fact that she had not had a date

    or any sex for over 5 years.

    She was afraid she might have something wrong with her, so she decided

    to seek medical expertise

    with the well known Chinese sex therapist, Dr Chang.

    Upon entering the examination room, Dr Chang said "OK, take off all

    your crose."

    The woman did as she was told.

    Now get down and craw reery, reery fass to odderside of room."

    Again the woman did as she was instructed.

    Dr Chang then said OK, now craw reery, reery fass back to me.

    As she did Dr Chang shook his head slowly.

    Your probrem vewy bad. You have Ed Zachary disease. Wurse case I ever

    see.

    Dat why you not haf sex or dates."

    The woman asked anxiously "Oh my God, Dr Chang what is Ed Zachary

    disease?"

    Dr Chang sighed deeply and replied, Ed Zachary disease is when your

    face

    look Ed Zachary like your arse".

  8. just after a little advice..

    I have a friend whos planning on moving to pattaya, he wants to buy a tuk tuk.. Are these classed as a motorbike or car?

    What are the laws/attitude in pattaya regarding tuk tuks? There seem to be suprisingly few around compared with Bangkok.

    Thanks :o

  9. But you would think I could just save as or copy ???

    You would have thought so... Have you tried copying the files when the cam is connected to mains power, it could be going into standby after a minute or so of copying, which may fuk the transfer up :o
