  1. All he told me hedgehog is she might not be to happy if he went.

    I thought it's a little bit of emotional blackmail because if he did go those three little lines would have been on his mind the whole trip.

    Bit weak on both their parts for mine. One for saying it and the other for not calling the bluff. Whether there was something else behind it I don't know.

  2. How many times have you heard that and how do you handle it?

    I was supposed to go with a mate on a three day trip recently and yet he pulled out at the last moment when he asked the mrs if she's ok with it and got the old up to you routine. I asked why it's only a golf trip but he just said he didn't want to upset the apple cart so he missed out and the rest of us enjoyed.

    I'm not sure whether up to you is just a saying or an ultimatum as it has never affected me but on this occasion it sure affected him.

  3. All I can say mate is if it's important then go with the tried and true.

    If not give them a go and give some feed back.

    I've never used Kerry never heard of them but I had important documents that had to go back and forth and used fed ex and had no probs.

    Good luck.

  4. To much in the red column and not enough in the black.

    To much corruption as seen just yesterday with the massage parlour raid and this the headlines we see nearly everyday.

    Preaching road safety while their own police force can't even get the basics right and put a helmet on.

    The ongoing Koh Tao saga.

    Even in today's news a cop tries to get fines paid into his personal bank account.

    They have their moments but so many fingers in the pie allows the true Mr Bigs to just continue on.

    So I'm in the no camp.

  5. Thank you everyone for your input?

    Pretty much all on the same wave length.

    My next topic is also on the dining experience which has also has divided opinions..

  6. Yes Charlie I am referring to the service charge.

    I always give a direct tip to the person serving us and maybe a small amount on the bill.

    So the service charge mostly goes to management or is it divided up in most cases?

  7. Can somebody explain the tipping charge on a bill?

    My mate pointed out to me he won't tip if it's already on the bill.

    I normally tip the person serving me and throw a little extra on the bill.

    I'd just like to know is the built in tip is divided amongst the staff or do they get rorted.

    Thanks

  8. Very selective Robbie nz considering it was worldwide news how the yellow dems stopped the voting public from even getting to to a polling booth to even get their chance to vot which was not only legal but constitutional at the time.

    Yet you seem to ignore this fact and really it doesn't natter which side you happen to support or what outcome that election may have had the fact is under the law it was leaf a land what's happening now is not.

    If an election was held and the yellow dems got in and thrown the PTP out no problem at least it was done by the people for better or for worse.

  9. See mikemac that's where you have got me wrong.

    I do come on strong in support of the shins PTP and that's because they were elected.

    Had the yellow dems with abhisit as leader been in the same position I'd be defending that lot also.

    Mate for better or for worse freedom of speech is the cornerstone of basic human rights,

    A bit of robust debate on here is healthy and right or wrong I always respect other posters opinions

    Cheers

  10. Some great comments from the zombie junta yellow dem supporters.

    Ok the lets go with the one question that was asked of the general.

    Where on you salary did you amass such a fortune ?

    It was asked once and we all seen the ramifications of that question.

    Yellow dem red or any other supporter how can you possibly accept this stitch up.

    I have said before if it was abhisit I would be just as outraged as they have to mandate and no legal standing!
