So is it a good idea to buy gold? Gold always seems to keep it's value--any thoughts?

Its not the gold you should buy but shares in the gold companies 1998 most mines in africa were producing gold at around $199- $250 most shut up shop when the gold fell.

mines are opening again with the reserves already proven and they are producing at roughly the same price.

bugs me to say this but look at the smaller aussie companies.

inside info has the gold hitting $1000 troy ounce by end of march

fuc_k the farangs.

Anybman who lets a woman control his life is a whimp and gets his just deserts.

NOW the car drivers why is it they hog the middle of the road even in the smaller soi's wont give way to other vehicles and have the awful habit of driving with thier lights on full beam at night time, and the size of the bl@@dy things would house a third world country,

now i'm not trying to stick up for the morons who do drive around with no shirts and flip flops or helmets but some expats do have considerations for other drivers while on motorbikes

100 DSI, police officers raid Koh Samui, arrest Briton

Koh Samui, Surat Thani: -- A team of 100 officers from the Crime Suppression Division, Anti-Money Laundering Office and Department of Investigation raided this tourist destination island Tuesday morning and arrested a Briton and three Thais.

The Briton, Peter Watkinjones, 40, was accused of leading a multinational mafia gang which bribed land officials to gain access to public land on the island for sale to foreigners.

The officers, divided into small teams, raided ten spots to try to arrest seven members of the so-called Bandidos gang.

DSI spokesman Pol Col Dussadee Arayawutthi said the three Thai men were identified as Pramual Somwong, a land official, and two ordinary people - Samroeng Buanak and Prateep Muangkaew.

He said a Briton and two Danish men were still elusive.

He said the seven were suspected of using influence to pressure local businesses and people to sell business and land to them and they paid bribe to land officials to use land documents elsewhere to forge ownership of public land on the island and sold them to foreigners at steep prices.

Dussadee said the sale contracts were undervalued as the buyers paid the rest of the money to the gang abroad.

Aussies just can't handle booze.

They should stay away from it.

They usually drink Fosters, so no probs

Actually you'll be hard pressed to find an Aussie anywhere who drinks Fosters.

Fosters is the rubbish left over from brewing the good stuff which we keep to ourselves.

what like VB! dross like that u can keep

here there hard keeped to drink water befor their crying to go home whinging bl##dy aussies

ok count me in with ere in doors

no stupid p###ed up not street wise silly little aussies would do it for me every time and they call us whinging poms

why couldnt they let the useless little c##t drown

ok people but where do you apply

Deciding to kill somebody is a unique decision.

Being against the death penalty does not make me an anarchist.

European countries have removed this shameful punishment.

They have not fallen into chaos.

I would feel much safer on a typical European street than an American one despite their eagerness to execute in many states.

would you make that unique decision if a member of your family were to be raped or murdered

Rescue workers used an excavator that was working nearby to clear the grass from the roadside, but the machine broke down - an incident that villagers attributed to the malevolence of the snakes. With the cobras presumably looking balefully on from the encroaching woodlands, work ceased for the day.

Better not show this to my Plant Manager - he'd use the excuse for the rest of the project.

so thats what happened to my RH 120 yesterday

Disagree with the sleaze factor, but different reasons for everyone.... I personally like being near the water/beach. Tis a beach resort after all and I like to stick to that sort of environment when having a few drinks. Open Air and outdoors for the most part. If I want a pub atmosphere, franky I'd go back to blighty for that.

What they doing with the old location????

agree totaly with the beach, sleaze its there if you want it if you dont stay away simple. try to keep away from expats while on leave, 10 weeks at atime in the bush eating drinking and working with expats 24hrs a day just gets a tad toooo much so i for one wont be in shenanighans simple.

to all of you out there if you like the old style pub theme why dont you stay at home simple! sure patters could manage with out you.

COMPUTER DATING A THAI DISASTER WAITING TO HAPPEN (as they say afool and his money)

sorry to hear about your problems steve but you really need to get out of ther and get yourself sorted out.

sorry to sound so negative but did you take an HIV test yourself

Maybe I am missing something, but how can anyone be so stupid as to believe they have won a prize from a scheme they have not even participated in? Seriously, how can people be so fooled?

People do, amazingly, fall for these

I had a mail from an Indian collegue who had a friend who had fallen for one of the 'British lottery' scams (a standard pre-payment scam) and had sent a considerable (very considerable to them) sum by one of the money transfer systems, of course the scammer is now asking for more for 'additional paperwork'. I felt really awful telling this chap that his life savings was most likely beyond recovery

you'd be supprised even nigerians fall for it.

Yes I think only an hour drive to Pattaya from Bangkok airport?

How much should toll roads charge be and taxi?

1400 BAHT

It's almost 2 hours from BKK ( Suvarnabhumi ) to Pattaya . The taxi fair is 1400 including tolls on the way out and 800 baht plus tolls on the way back to BKK. Or to put it another 2200 round trip.

your being robbed hang out for 1200 and they pay the tolls

I'm almost speechless at the intolerance and ignorance of some people. Your world is a very small place...considering that a sixth of the world's entire population practice this religion, you act as though everyone should share your "hate and intolerance" towards people who have faith in something beyond your narrow scope. The need for strict observers of the Muslim faith to pray 5 times a day and face the direction of what they consider the holiest place on earth, might have something to do with the need for a room where they can do this without creating a scene...airports being busy places, the scene of hundreds of people bowing down would cause havoc with walking around them all and people stopping to stare in fascination. People that display your level of "hate and intolerance" are the reason this world is in trouble...muslims get all the flack because a very small percentage of the religion have branched off in the name of the same prophet, but predominantly the Muslim faith abhor the terrorism. Out of a billion people the small percentage of one's who get all the attention are on the news every day killing people and have become the representatives of this faith.

I don't practice any religion myself, but who are we to judge what others hold sacred.

i think if you read the post correctly weho is just stating fact ! why should we all pay for special services to a select group of people. if you can read hate and intolerance in to that your one sick puppy my friend
