  1. Well...this is how I buy it in HK and I love tiger toast.Toast spread with Vegemite then strips of Coon cheese and under the grill.

    Yummy.The price is consistent to the Thai prices too,cheaper in the tube job.

  2. Lol Zed what's that got to do with the price of rice in China???

    Get a Bible and figure it out. or PM Old Croc or just do what I did and Google it.

    The origin of the city's name poses an interesting dilemma for etymologists. Juddah (pronounced Jiddah) in Arabic means seashore, which seems logical enough, but the school of thought which prefers Jaddah or grandmother, is given credence by the traditional location of Eve's tomb within the city. Jeddah is, in fact, incorrect, but is popularly used by most non-Saudis living there.

  3. 'White Teeth' by Zadie Smith not a newie but a great uplifting read.

    'The Art of War' by Sun Tzu

    Always refer to it when I want to kick a**e as the strategies apply to many modern business principles in this day and age and was made a compulsary study strand in Japan and China for MBA students.

    Translated from the Chinese http://www.chinapage.com/sunzi-e.html

    By LIONEL GILES, M.A. (1910)

    [This is the basic text of Sun Tzu on the Art of War. It was extracted from Mr. Giles' complete work as titled above. The commentary itself, which, of course includes this work embedded within it, has been released as suntzu10.txt (or suntzu10.zip). This is being released only as an adjunct to that work, which contains a wealth of commentary upon this text.]

    The Art of War has 13 chapters.

  4. Maybe you should get in touch with Weekend Warrior,he's the firearms expert.

    Agree with Jdinisia....why on earth would you want to bring one? Definitely not in your hand luggage and is it really worth taking the risk?Better check with the authorities.

  5. No new updates just an e-mail saying she was going to stay with her mother for a while and she doesn't want to talk about it.

    I guess she needs some space to sort things out about it all,so I didn't pressure her with questions.I'm not sure what she is going to do as she's a very traditional Thai and actually any advice I can give would come from a Western perspective.

  6. Great posts Kat and Rainx great read.

    Mickey,the OP has obviously found a girl more receptive to his advances,assuming of course that he wasn't trolling in the first place.Or maybe he took Sub's advice and farted on her. :o

  7. There were 3 good arguments that Jesus was an American Negro :

    (1) He loved gospel

    (2) He called everybody brother

    (3) and there was no way that he could get a fair trial

    But there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was Jewish :

    (1) He went into his fathers business

    (2) He stayed home until he was 33

    (3) He thought that his mother was a virgin

    But there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was Italian :

    (1) He had wine with every meal

    (2) He spoke with his hands

    (3) and his mother thought that he was God

    But there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was Irish :

    (1) He never got married

    (2) He was always telling stories

    (3) He loved green pastures

    But there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was from Northern

    NSW :

    (1) He never cut his hair

    (2) He walked around barefoot all the time

    (3) He started a new religion

    But there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was American Indian

    :

    (1) He was at peace with nature

    (2) He ate a lot of fish

    (3) He spoke about the great spirit

    But ...... the most compelling evidence of all - 3 proofs that Jesus

    was a Woman (these arguments may also be used to prove he was an Army

    cook) :

    (1) He fed a crowd at a moments notice when there was no food

    (2) He kept trying to get a message across to a bunch of men who just

    didn't get it

    (3) And even when he was dead, He had to get up because there was work

    to do.

  8. Good parenting skills is what's needed (unless there is a medical condition) using sedatives is way over the top.Agree with the whispering voice or 'Indoor Voice',try 'Bring your Walking Feet' tell them stories about the trip make up stories about flying,key here is to keep the child calm.

    Bring a favourite toy and other comforts for your child above all maintain your own cool.I've seen some parents on long flights getting plastered and the poor child or children getting bored that's not their fault.I've even seen one woman give a child a sip of her JD.

    I don't know,I've travelled eveywhere with my little one and a little imagination,home comforts and good skills is all you need,no need to resort to sedatives.I could never imagine sedating a child but that's me.
