  1. My dream was always scoring a hat trick for Scotland as we beat England 6-0 in the world cup final.

    Oh well, I ended up with the palm trees, the beach and the beautiful oriental wife, so I can't really complain

    Now you are dreaming. Scotland get through the qualifying rounds :o:D:D

    Cheeky Bar Steward ! !

    It is a well known fact that per head of population Scotland are in fact the most successful International football team in the history of the world ! ! !

  2. Some years ago my daughter was at primary school in Dubai, and I had heard my ex-wife moaning about and influx of "Asian" eachers to the school as a cost saving means.

    A few weeks later my daughter was sitting at the breakfast table rattling her head from side to side saying "what to do?" and "I am not knowing". She changed school very shortly thereafter.

  3. [A friend on the Gold Coast swears by a bottle of red a day ,reckons midgies and mozzies wont approach him.

    Another friend(non-drinker )from Nth Queensland mixes a brew of 90% baby oil,10%Dettol and a few drops of eucalyptus oil,rubbed on exposed skin, he says it works fine.

    It works for me too but I smell like a hospital waiting room !

  4. I first got pissed on Singha in '92. The hangover the next day was horrendous. When I finally surfaced and got to the bar for a melon shake to wash down more painkillers the old worthy at the end of the bar told me it was because of the formaldehyde in the beer that I felt so bad.

    Taking him at his word I have never drank it since.

    Is this really another Urban Myth ?

  5. and a question to the boxing posters out there in TV land....

    Do u think that Tyson did deserve to go to jail ?

    Wasn't really convinced but reckoned the girl should have been jailed for stupidity if she honestly thought she was going to his room for a "coffee" !

    :o:D

  6. 180 local business operators discuss Tourism problems here in Pattaya.

    At Pattaya City Hall, Khun Niran, the Mayor of Pattaya chaired this meeting along with Khun Sansak, the former Sport and Tourism Ministerial Adviser along with Khun Raiwat from the Chonburi Provincial Council. 180 local business operators were invited along to discuss ways to increase the image of Pattaya in Thailand and the rest of the world. Many delegates offered advice to the meeting including Mr. Drew Noyes, who suggested that Pattaya City Hall should utilize the private sector more to assist them in this matter. Recent events such as the Asian Earthquake and the suggested over-reporting of crime in local newspapers and television were also brought up as reasons behind the low tourism numbers being experienced here in Pattaya at present. A further meeting is expected in the coming weeks.

    So I guess they will now try to stop the newspapers reporting crimes ! !

  7. I believe the registration process neeeds to be finalised. But I was told that forms (when issued) would be available at Thai embassies worldwide amd you can register your number there.

    The system will probably fall apart as it was initially mooted as a way of stopping telephone activated bombs. But giving terrorists 6 months advance warning kind of ruined the whole principle (and boosted 1 to 2 call sales).
