  1. I saw one a few months ago in our soi, it stopped next door but they walked further down the soi,
  2. I lived in Bangkok for 3 years, on Sukhumvit Soi 2, I used to be out all hours of the night, but never drunk, I have lived down here in Phuket ever since, there was only one time which was a few years back I thought I was about to get mugged early one morning outside a 7/11, When I walked into the 7 I noticed these two shady <deleted> walking about, they just stood out, anyway I got my stuff and went out to get on my bike, and from nowhere they came right across the carpark to ask me the time, No body ask you the time these days, my instincts kicked in, as they were right along side of me, I didn't pull my phone out of my pocket I just looked at my watch and spoke in Thai to them, they looked at me and backed off, real shady! and it was 7 in the morning, Maybe if I had pulled my phone out of my pocket they would have snatched it, expensive phone, a few thousand baht to them,
  3. Stop letting them in unless they have 50,000 baht,
  4. A full one? I see they had some in Makro sorry I didnt look how much,
  5. I see Tesco's are not calling them Christmas trees this year, They are Evergreen trees,
  6. I live in Rawai, Phuket there is one here, not sure who is allowed to be burred there or is it just a Muslim grave yard, I know there is a few Chinese ones dotted around the island,
  7. Where we go in Phuket, they also have full turkeys and people order turkeys for take aways, Last year was the first time they had sprouts I think I need to teach them how to cook them, they have everything else, pork, ham and pulled pork so you can have a selection of everything,
  8. When was the last time you had one of these,
  9. If you are English did you or your parents collect Green shield stamps?
  10. We get into the spirit of Christmas as we have done for years, my wife loves it, Go walk around Central Phuket see all the decorations and take loads of photo's for my grand daughter back in the UK, There is a restaurant in Floresta that has turkey so we can have a Christmas dinner, couple of glasses of wine, exchange some small presents.
  11. I keep seeing this place on FB and I dont know if any of you guys have tried them, I have not tried them but they seem to have a big menu, maybe if a group of you put an order in it works cheaper,
  12. The rules and regulation and the law in 20 years have changed nothing here in Phuket, the same culprits are still selling beers if you want them, and the same places to go for a drink, if you want of coarse The only Law abiding citizens who obey the laws are usually farang owned business, jing jing,
  13. I dont know where you got that from, but here in Phuket 40,000 baht at the road side police or spend the night in the clink and court in the morning was 5000 baht, and that was a Thai friend,
  14. I never really liked them as a kid, I can eat now, get my wife to make one,
  15. Bad news when the police didn't have all the exits covered, worse than the keystone cops, or was that the plan? to let them escape, nothing would surprise me here,
  16. Tourist are more worried when they read stories like this about Fake doctors,
  17. We lived through the good times all the best bands,
  18. Couple of old photo's here of Belle Vue
  19. I doubt any place in Thailand will be selling Hollands pies,
  20. Only one way to find out, get yourself down there and try,
  21. I'm thinking that's a suet pudding? it looks ok, they must be from the North of England, It was one of my favourites, Especially "Hollands" Amazing the company is still going
