Chopper

It is from Northpoint Condominium. It looks like the area where there are large gas tanks at the front of the building though I did not hear any explosion. The Fire, Police and Ambulance services were on the scene very promptly and now the fire is under control.

All of the local shops have been closed down and the power has been turned off. The Electricity Company already has trucks on site. I counted about six fire engines.

See photos depicted below:

There is one in North Pattaya. From the Dolphin Roundabout head along Naklua Road and it is just before Soi 18 (Wongamat) on the left hand side. There may be one in South Pattaya but I am not sure of the location.

I find the Laundry Express outlets to be the nearest thing to a UK Dry Cleaners.

3 pages on this scum of the earth. 10 pages on Jeff Savage.

At least we all have our priorities straight.

Mike, (Mikhail) is also a qualified Pilot based at Nongprue airfield where I fly from and thus a friend of mine and the local aviation community.

We are all shocked by the allegations.

Can we please delete this type of comment above. Innocent until proven guilty in my book.

F1fanatic, his girlfriend is holding up fine. Despite getting a enormously large (larger than the Thai lottery) payout from Noel's ex employer Rank Xerox (I was one of the executors of his estate) she stills to this day continues her job as a secretary and has never found a new significant other.

My wife and I met up with her just last Saturday as Noel's Mum and older brother are currently here on holiday. Noel's Mum at the age of 84 still comes to Thailand each year on holiday and is as sharp as a tack. It is easy to see where Noel got his abundant wit, humour and wisdom from. :-)

Well he was here a couple of weeks ago. He has changed his car to a less profile one. He still displays his NL sticker on the back though...

Do you still have Fox News?

Barry

Still have Fox on BTV, however I don't watch it (just for amusement), as it is totally biased.

Huh? It's fair and balanced!

No spin, right!

Banglamung Television. A local cable TV channel.

I have just arrived home in North Pattaya from Jomtien. Shenanigans Jomtien was open for business as usual although the Avenue branch was closed. I came back via Walking Street where although nearly everywhere was closed one could still get a sneaky beer same as in the Jomtien Beer Bars.

Coming back on second road still a small amount of both road and foot traffic. No sign of any fires and a limited Police presence.

Rather unsavoury comment don't you think!

Thanks.

Can anyone provide a fixture list I too would like to see a home game. Ta.

Anyone who does bungy jumping or any other activity where you voluntarily place your life in someone elses hands in Thailand has to be completely crazy anyway...

Really? I've been skydiving for the last 36 years and haven't killed anyone yet and yes, we have a skydiving operation here in Thailand too!!! You need to get out more!

joskydive, please post details or PM me with your operation. I am interested. Are you thaiskyadventures by chance?

Cheers.

Quote from the PDN article: ''Rescue officers present at the scene immediately rushed him to the hospital for treatment.''

What a load of crap! I happened to be walking past with my wife and there was an ambulance there from The Sawang Boriboon Foundation and the medics treated the bloke at the scene only. The Policeman took his notes then left followed by the ambulance. One presumes because he had no recourse to pay.

^ Phil, stop reading my mind...

Big C: North Pattaya. Located on the second floor just outside of the mobile phone shop enclave.

It also provides photocopying, postal, laminating and other such ancillary services.

^ Do you have a glass skull? Your obvious jealously of another's website seems ever so apparent.

Pig and Whistle Soi 7 works for me ฿ 120 for the small breakfast.

This is a good website to look at.

A bloke stuck his head into a barber's and asked, 'How long before I can get

a haircut?' The barber looked around the shop full of customers and said,

'about 2 hours.' The bloke left..

A few days later, the same bloke stuck his head in the door and asked, 'How

long before I can get a haircut?' The barber looked around at the shop and

said, 'About 3 hours.' The bloke left.

A week later, the same bloke stuck his head in the shop and asked, 'How

long before I can get a haircut?' The barber looked around the shop and

said, 'About an hour and a half.' The bloke left.

The barber turned to his friend and said, 'Hey, Bob, do me a favour. Follow

that bloke and see where he goes. He keeps asking how long he has to wait

for a haircut, but then he doesn't ever come back.'

A little while later, Bob returned to the shop, laughing hysterically.

The barber asked, 'So, where does that bloke go when he leaves?'

Bob looked up, wiped the tears from his eyes and said,

'Your house!'

I spotted him yesterday... He must have just landed in Pattaya.

Perhaps he was behind schedule in preparing this years presents and has elected to ditch his sleigh in favour of a slightly faster mode of transport to meet his obligations.

It is the Reindeers I feel sorry for with unemployment being so high around the world.

It is like watching train about to collide: you don't want to but feel compelled to do so.

I was watching it last night and Mick just needs a bit of polishing up.

The Winchester Bar review is about a year old. The bloke from Hackney he interviews inside the bar before he is even asked a question cannot contain his excitement as he extols the virtues of his holiday for about 2 minutes before Mick finally gets a question in. That was a classic.

Good luck on shutting this guy up!

Ha-ha spot on.

Maybe a lobotomy would do the trick.

A firefighter was working on the engine outside the station, when he noticed

A little girl nearby in a little red wagon with little ladders hung off the

sides and a garden hose tightly coiled in the middle.

The girl was wearing a firefighters helmet. The wagon was being pulled by

her dog and her cat.

The firefighter walked over to take a closer look.

'That sure is a nice fire truck,' the firefighter said with admiration.

'Thanks', the girl replied.

The firefighter looked a little closer. The girl had tied the wagon to her

dog's collar and to the cat's testicles.

'Little partner,' the firefighter said, 'I don't want to tell you how to run

yo ur rig, but if you were to tie that rope around the cat's collar, I think

you could go faster.'

The little girl replied thoughtfully, 'You're probably right, but then I

wouldn't have a siren.'
