Washington Square tenants were given an extended three month lease. It would appear that the huge demolition project has been put off. Thailand's economy has saved some businesses. After that, it is a wait and see situation.

It seems the land owner is holding off on the condo / hotel for the time being and expects those who he wanted to evict to hang around and pay him rent. I know what i would do.

Losing Nancy would not weaken our side. Mr K on the other hand reminds me of Kasper the Ghost Smeichel. Foster is the long-term replacement to VDS.

As mentioned in my first post, we need a Central midfielder in case Carrick / Scholes go down again. Without these two, our attack is all long ball and that doesn't suit us.

I think we could kick Anderson out wide and CR on the other side.

ferguson spent a packet on nani though and has high hopes for him doesn't he? you'll particularly need him when ronaldo goes.

can see your point about centre mid, particularly with hargreaves looking increasingly like a crock. would've thought anderson, carrick and fletcher plus one would be enough though, surprised you're not in for lassana diarra, probably the best centre mid outside of the big four. or maybe gareth barry.

Nani is quick but A) Can't pass Can't score and C) Can't defend - 3 bad qualities for a winger on United

With alot of teams apparently lining up to swoop for Diarra - I suspect SAF will look elsewhere and find someone under the radar ala Vidic / Evra.

zaki would be a smashing signing for us, dev.

Hey Stevie: Zaki would be good but who do you see leaving the club in Jan?

Seems our lads had a good time at the christmas party. Especially like the photo of Adebayor who was invited and sub Johnnie Evans tucking his shirt in after getting out of a limo

hmmm

perhaps its time I change mine for a while?

I vote for William Gallas!

With all this racist stuff in other threads I thought it was time to lighten things up with a little speculation. For fun (and bragging rights) I suggest we do our own 'inside look' at our own teams and come up with our Jan tranfer guesses. To keep things civilised, let's keep to commenting on our own teams. This will be tougher for some teams (apparantly CITY is buying the who league) but go to your crystal ball and take a shot at it.

I will start.

Out - Nani, Kuschek (the goalie, sorry, I can't spell his name).

ok, i'll bite. why would you purposely weaken your squad in the january window?

One simple question when the OP made his first post it was numbered 20 so was his second post any reason

He reached his quoata for the day. Take a look back at your first 100 and you notice that the math doesn't add up.

or .... Bolded messages don't count.

there is a huge domed metal/glass building situated North East of Mong Thong Thani that I first noticed from an aircraft about two years ago. Yesterday I was driving in the area and just happened to come upon it by chance.

It seems to be a round structure with a domed roof, sitting in huge grounds. Any one have any ideas ?

Yes, it was built in the late fifties right after the Rosswell Incident (they moved the Ripley here). Apparently it is now used as a water treatment plant but word on the street is that it's really the secret location of the next parliment.

Every time I go to Bangkok, I always stop in for a hamburger. It is normally in the afternoon and I have never seen the place very busy. I think it is a nice place and always wonder why there are so few customers.

It is a nice place to get away from the madness of the area.

But i had a roast chicken dinner the other day in there with a bottle of Heineken and the bill come to just under 500 BHT (10GBP) , the roast dinner was absolutely dreadful with stewed veg, and great big chips they call roast potatoes, id get the same deal but far better food back home for 7GBP (350BHT).

Us tourists dont fly 1000s of miles to spend more money on food, beer then we would back home then for it to be of far worse quality.

Then it's probably a good thing that Boss Hogg's clients are 90% locals.

This will be tougher for some teams (apparantly CITY is buying the who league)

We'll probably dip into the petty cash jar and buy Ronaldo, for starters.

I think he just signed with some south american outfit, anyways he is a bit old for City now isn't he?

Not generally known as a procrastinator, I am having serious trouble deciding on an avatar for myself for TV. Do you go with something aspirational - like somehere you love to visit or would like to live, or something from your past? Or avoid personal stuff altogether, and find something from TV's avatar stock, or what?

What made you choose your avatar?

Thanks.

Whatever you do, don't use a personal photo, in my opinion. For one, it's boring. For two, on such a populous forum where anyone can join I'm paranoid and don't want people knowing who I truly am. My avatar is of picture from the airplane I was in of a place that I loved to be.

And all this time I thought yours was a close up of the duck's rear-end in the other poster's avatar

Moved to Bankok forum.

Thanks soundman, but if wanted to post in the bkk forum I do know how.

Please put my post back in General Topics.

I'm the one looking for furniture, not you!

cheers

Gunga get your Mrs / Mr to help you on the Thai sites www.thai2hand.com www.thaisecondhand.com I think pantipmarket.com is another one.

1. Jutujak ( weekend market) is the best to find all.

2. Platinum Mall ( Pratunam) for clothing retail.

3. MBK for bargain ( mobile phone) and something else.

4. Pantip Plaza ( Pratunam) for IT shopping.

That picture looks like Thithi

What about Central Lad Prao, Bangkok Convention Center or whatever its called.

Yes, I concur, you have made 19 20 posts...... and this one I'm making now will add to my tally as I hope some day to catch up with BKKJames and win that golden goose prize....

But just like elections, my vote has now cancelled out yours DDR

Out - Nani, Kuschek (the goalie, sorry, I can't spell his name).

In - Central Midfielder - tbc but someone in the ilk of scholes (ill timed but effective)

My apologies for being so ignorant about this.

But is 1 post 1 new topic

or each and every reply to a toipic/

Also how can we establish how many posts we have made?

From time to time invites to ThaiVisa .com parties are issued to those who have mde 5 posts!

Well looking at your post count, it appears you are nearing your fourth invitation to the same party mate. No need for stamp, just print this out 4 times and use one each time you go out for a butt.

Glue traps are one of the most cruel ways to kill an animal, the RSPCA have a petition to get them banned in the UK because of the immense suffering they cause. You need to make sure there is no way rats can enter your premises and make sure you don't have any rubbish with food outside that they will be attracted to. Use humane traps and release the rats about 2 miles away if possible, otherwise they will be straight back.

<deleted>??? Just when I thought I had read it all, along comes this post. Kill the rats, don't release them to become somebody elses problem....imagine if everyone practised this method, we could all give up our day jobs and just chase rats. What research was used to determine that Rats can't travel 2 miles??

I think 2 miles was used as a reference point. Certain rats I have heard can travel much farther than that. There was one that even hopped in the back of tuk tuk and made it from Chinatown to Bangna before he realised that the airport was closed.

Apparently, the tuk tuk driver still asked for full payment. To be confirmed though.

Just make sure its clean, no obscene avatars are allowed

That rules out a face shot then.

Thanks for all your advice and comments so far.

Seeing as you are struggling with this 'life changing decision', I recommend you use the same methodology that you employed in coming up with your wallpaper for your computer monitor and / mobile phone.

Indeed, this free market stuff is really interesting, especially from learning from Guru James that:

1) There's only one valid definition in the world of "rip off", and it comes from Wiki.

2) A super free market freak is someone who has an MBA

3) There's only one valid definition of "free market" and it's from... oops, dunno if it's from either Wiki or Guru James! Either way, Guru James is the greatest!

It only took you two posts to get something right. Two stars for you and an extra cookie after your nap.

Oh, but you're a star in yourself dear James... you sorta understand supply and demand, and you even learned it from a Wiki!

Please oh please reply star James, this is beginning to get really fun! We can carry this on to the new year and even onto the next!

I know it must bother you that it took you fours years of university to learn the meaning of supply and demand while the rest of us got it from the internet.

Anyways, back to the OP if you don't mind, you can also try airlines like Finnair, SAS and the aformentioned ME airlines if you want to save a few pounds.

Hi All

I am looking for an event hall to organize a boxing match in Bangkok, Ive got several option in hotels around Bangkok. But am looking for more selection perhaps something that could accommodate at least around 500 to 1000 People.

Anyway knows and Schools , Public hall that caters my need ?

Bitec,Impact Arena,Grand Centara convention is out of the question

Cheers

Tytus

BEC Terro?

7.8 mill for a clown called Gomez.From what i am being told Harry wants to bring back Robinson.

Watch this space

I don't know, I mean you guys have won 9/12 or something since Harry took over with Gomes in goal. He clearly saved the day on 3 occaisions against us - yes he has a little bit of David James in him (propencity for the brilliant combined with the odd shocker), but I say if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Tottenham 0-0 Man Utd

Great effort from the lads and another shocker from Berbatosser.

Up yer arse Fergie!!

Hilarious, great effort from Gomez. Pukachenko was invisable as usual.

Hate to say this but it seems the stars are aligned for LP this year. Everytime they slip up and leave the door open, so too do Chels, ManU and Arse.

Perhaps it's time to visit some spirit man in Chaing Mai to change the current aura.

loyal, brutal, passionate

Good one dude I just spat out Pepsi all over the computer !

told you i was brutal
