Taiwan and England playing now (3-1).

PST.

Also just had a quote from Malaysian Astro,when asked about English commentary,he said yes,i then asked him if that was guaranteed,as this was my only reason for getting it installed,he then replied he would speak with Astro HO and let me know asap,so basically he wasn't 100% sure.

PST.

Supersport channels still on today,also on my cable network is astro supersports2,wondering wether this channel will have the WC with English commentary?,and is this the same channel thats available on Astro?

PST.

A terrible night,RIP to the 39.It actually started the year before when Liverpool played Roma in Rome,scores of Liverpool fans including a 7 year old boy with his father were slashed up before and after the game,scores more were injured by roma fans hurling glass bottles as fans left the stadium.1 year on,there was always going to be flare -ups,just very sad the way in ended up.

PST.

Gillette disposables(blue pack of 3,5,10), with Gillette lemon and lime foam-very clean shave,no irritation atall.

Works for me anyway.

PST.

UBC also confirmed to me today that there will be no English commentary on HD or any other channels.

Absolute piss take,have emailed Head office.Maybe if everyone rang in to complain,they might do something,then again..............

PST.

The stupidest 'new law' seems to me to be the one regarding branded POS being banned in bars?,drive round anywhere,and spot the amount of beer/spirit adverts in bars/restaraunts.

Does this then mean the new Johnnie walker Red bar/club in Bangkok will have to close?,don't think so somehow.

PST.

Supersports (not sure which channel),they've been showing all the CL games all season.

PST.

It's one road,follow the 401 from surat thani to takua pa via phanom.

PST.

A Londoner with a shaved head in Thailand,should be easy to find.

PST.

Does the HD channel(s) become available straight away?,if so,how much of a difference in picture is there?

PST.

Whats the betting that if Thailand had somehow managed to qualify forWC 2010, English commentary would have been the first thing they'd have promoted.

Amazing Thailand indeed.

PST.

So,according to the World Cup Guide in this months True mag,from the 22/6-25/6, there will be 2 games kicking off @ 21.00 hours,and 2 games [email protected] and the starred games will be in HD,so no HD for Slovenia v England,but HD for USA v Algeria?.Also,unless you have 2 UBC boxes,you will only be able to watch one game per time for these 4 days.Her's hoping the other games are on Thai tv.

PST.

Amongst others,Solution bar in Kata stands out for me,pool table,live sports,cold beers,and a couple of stunners working.Decent happy hour aswell 3-7,50 baht beers,100 baht spirits.

PST.

Where about in Kata is the Solution bar??

On the road that runs from opposite the indoor market on Patak road,down to the bottom road where club med is,easy to find,and loads of parking.

PST.

Google your favourite radio station,it should have a 'Listen live' link,click on that,and the station will play live through your Media Player.

I use this method to listen to 4 stations from the UK (not at the same time,obviously).

Hi,yes it's up and running,although the offshore bar are not in the thursday night league anymore,they may well have their own competition once a week,the place is now under new managment.

PST.

Ever asked a Thai for directions?,give it a try,if they don't know (loss of face),they will direct you anywhere,both thai and farang alike.

PST.

I would very much doubt he paid 500 baht for a single joint,never heard of that.He most probably bought 500 bahts worth of weed 4-5 grams,and rolled a joint with just under a gram in.

PST.

Dont think it was staged,the guy in the pink shirt had his face smashed in by the other guys loudhailer,this is clearly visible in the video taken after at the police station.Pretty bad looking head wound.

What did you think would happen? The UK is an Island, with an Island mentality, (small minded) I'm English and proud to be so, however, there are way to many people in the UK that have never been any where…. Done anything or been anyone, who works all week, or not! And go on about the (not in any particular order) wars we have won, football and how they would run the England team, how to pull a bird, and be happy to tell you how much they know about everything. If you need to know anything in the UK, go to a pub on a Fri night, find the biggest bar fly and ask him…. Anything! Everything in the UK is dumbed down for the bone heads that now live there. Anything you say that doesn't fit their view or what they've seen on TV…. And you're a liar. Sorry to hear your family seems to be cast from the same stone. Time to move on, you've out grown them mate. The world is a big place, life a journey, not a destination. Good luck!

Obviously Mr Mae Tang you have been in an English Pub to much, I am proud to be English one of the most cosmopolitan races on the planet, My wife who is Thai has always been teated with respect from neighbors and friends , those who insult her, which i do not know of any, are not friends anyway,

I am English also,and have lived in Thailand for seven years.Have to agree totally with the first post,every time i return to the UK,which is normally once a year i notice more and more of the small town mentality way of thinking,the majority of people haven't travelled,and are very narrow minded in their views on subjects outside the town they are living in,as the above poster put so well,'Anything you say that dosen't fit their view etc'.

This way of thinking also seems common amongst some expat communitys here in Thailand.

PST

Oh, and the Thais arn't narrow minded with a small town mentality

Aren't they?,i would say they are.

Kanaeng 2,the original,not the one at Chalong pier.From karon,get to Chalong circle,take the Phuket town road,past the police station,and look out for a huge yellow sign about half a mile on the right hand side with Kanaeng 2 written on it,turn right at the sign and follow the narrow road down to the end.

Consistently excellent food at cheap prices,right on the beach with great views,you can also take your own wine if you prefer.
