Thechook

What happened to the billions they have raised from the 100 baht increase on arrival/departure tax they introduced 6 years ago.  This increase was to be used to cover medical expenses of foreigners. This scheme is effectively charging foreigners twice for the one product.  Has the trough got a hole in it or gluttony a problem in Thailand

From one off the pace to equal last in two weeks in the tipping.

Couldn't pick my nose at the moment.

Well i hope The Little Master gets off this week,he was clearly the difference between the Roos and Cats.

I would be disappointed if he played last week and goes this week.With Fyfe on a similar charge it might be viewed different.

Don't normally watch the A-league but sat  with son to see a thrilling finish with the Glory

Not so good for Alex's mob losing 6-1(least the Dees got up for you)

Whilst on other sports the mistake ridden IPL final was a cracker going to the last ball.

Back to footy,feel for young Sam Durdin for Norf who will be suspended,doing the right thing putting on a sheperd knocking out Rohan.Not sure what your meant to do in that situation.

Team of the week for me was the Hawks,they just know a way to get it done with backs against the wall.   

 

I was 9 off the pace 4 weeks ago clawed myself back to 3, now dropped off to 6.

Thai beaches are disgusting and there is absolutely no way in hell you could ever entice me into the water.  I've seen the sewage and experienced the stench.

This is why they wouldn't allow international observers.  The whole thing was rigged from the start

She has been charged with assault and will face court.  The kid that egged Anning walked free.

Just pay up Prayuth or face contempt of court charges

How about devaluing the Baht, the main reason is plain to see Thailand has become too expensive......

As my wife commented last when we went shopping, Australia is cheaper than Thailand

It shouldn't be necessary 

Appear to be middle eastern and they can be volatile.

Isn't he under investigation, how can he just leave the country?  What are they going to do next, say oops he slipped away, we had no idea he planned to flee and we don't know where to look for him.

For sure huge problem - LOL 1% of all crimes committed by South Sudanese gangs, who also comprise NZ nationals and Pacific islanders. BTW now slowing down as offenders across all non Australian citizens being deported.

We don't go to public places or use public transport because of the African gangs controlling the streets of Melbourne. We have fortified our home to keep them out and venture out if we really need to.  Melbourne isn't a safe place.

Well the Australian P.M has just signed his parties own death warrant.  Election May 18th.  Last week he said his has changed his view on the ISIS BRIDES and will assist in bringing them home to great disgust of the population.  Now he is turning his back on an Australian citizen again to great disgust of Aussies.  Protests have started and Morrison put the gun to his head and pulled the trigger

I woundnt get too excited if I was the Lions or a few others, WILL take time to adjust to the Devils 6-6-6 we have seen it before a slow start and then the after burners kick in at around round 7 or 8 with 15 wins you will be sitting around 3rd by seasons end so I haven't written off North either.....

 

A few teams like ours just need a scrappy win to set the wheelie bin wheels in motion so don't give up premiership coach..im not writing off the Dee's just yet...though such a shit start to the season can write off a GF win for good dam sure....

 

In our case the whole dam team were lethargic in round 1 they mostly have improved each game but for sure a few need to go to Casey for a few weeks to find there mojo....in our case not much pressure on the ball carrier....last year they were gang tackling in twos and three's were not seeing that this season....I always like to see at least one new player in the team at the start of a season....we did not though Goodwin has injected new talent since...and of course new blood breeds enthusiasm Bombers have always been a team that can rise from the ashes we on the other hand are a team that doesn't...

 

Tip for you guys...dont pick the Dee's against the Swans...we seldom bet them.

Thanks I'II tip them now

Went out last night and Chiangmai is an absolute ghost town.  Not a tourist to be seen anywhere.  Bar girls offering services for the night at just 200 baht.
