  1. If that was Ben Stillers idea of ad lib... Best he have a full time script writer!
  2. Luv your sarcasm. And who would have told the head of the tour business because as sure as the sun rises he personally wouldn't have known squat otherwise. Or what's that phrase... No sh*t Sherlock!
  3. In following news it was reported that an uneven footpath on road 304 near the U turn has been subsequently repaired.
  4. Good luck to them I say. If they can afford that lifestyle then that's great. I hope their dream house gets built and the standard of work is top notch. There's a lot of wishful thinking but anything is possible here in the land of loan sharks and dodgy investors. Phuket wouldn't be my 1st choice but each to their own.
  5. I'd say someone ratted him out. Likely a competitor or another guide. I wonder if you'd get done for 'showing' friends about?
  6. I'm surprised the RTP get away with such poor performance. They are a bit more proactive in Chiang Mai but in hindsight it was probably more of a money making venture. Lots of tourists on scooters so a lot more 'road blocks' to check licenses and helmet wearing. I don't think the RTP gave a damn about the road safety but we're more concerned in getting a days worth of baht as fast as possible.
  7. Yeah what's with that? Even back in NZ at supermarkets you see people slouched over the shopping trolley. The bloody thing is for carting groceries not a support structure for fatties. To me they seem just lazy.
  8. “Sorry to bother you, sir, but there’s another salesman out here—you want me to tell him to go to heaven?”
  9. “There he goes again. … Satan’s pet.”
  10. “Just think. … Here we are, the afternoon sun beating down on us, a dead, bloated rhino underfoot, and good friends flying in from all over. … I tell you, Frank, this is the best of times.”
  11. Yes.... Last time I was in NZ I went to a local bakery (I try and support local businesses where I can). The pies looked ok but no prices were shown. Can't be too expensive I thought. WRONG! $11.50 and the quality was poor. Really dry pastry and bland filling. I later found the price list on a sign attached to the entrance door! I'll never go there again. If they want the customers they need to provide top quality products and service for those prices.
  12. I wonder if the lady on the left would adopt me as her personal little hippo?
  13. My first thought was... Here we go another EV on fire. But not this time. Any vehicle fire always looks nasty.
  14. That's taken some punishment. Alloy rim pretty much non existent and right fork is bent. Just cause your bike can go 200+kmph doesn't mean you should. Ride to the conditions and within legal limits. Enjoy the ride then you might get home in one piece. You want to speed, take it to a racetrack.
  15. Yep that's the one that always goes missing... right when you need it!
  16. Yes Fonterra aren't exactly in NZ farmers good books either.
  17. You are 100% correct. It was a buy out, started off that Fonterra purchased a 25% stake then increased to 50% before taking on 100% in 2005. Initially it was an Australian company ( known as Allowrie from about 1909) and to this date still has a kangaroo emblem on packaging.
  18. A simple Google search can get that for you....
