  1. My brother-in-law has a bar on the beach here at Nai Yang and would be very interested in free "condoms". P.M. me if you would like to visit - I can also introduce you to a few other bars if you'd like to make it worth your while, if nothing else we can always have a beer by the beach. Cheers

  2. In the days of the British Empire - the ruling class all started the day with Kedgeree.

    I have recently noticed (the valves have been out on my wirelss for a while) that both have gone missing, was there a link perhaps. :o

    kedgeree..n, Indian dish of rice, split pulse, onions, eggs etc ; :D

  3. Not on Mauritius!

    Mauritius is located in the Indian Ocean!

    Mine is in the Pacific one!

    Oops I didn't read it properly.

    ah well, there are far too many islands in the south Pacific for me to waste my time on.

    Good Luck

  4. ]The End Of The Road[/b]

    1. Ev'ry road thro' life is a long, long road .
      Fill' d with joys and sorrows too
      As you journey on how your heart will yearn
      For the things most dear to you
      With wealth and love ‘tis so
      But onward we must go
      Chorus
    2. Keep right on to the end of the road
      Keep right on to the end
      Tho' the way be long, let your heart be strong
      Keep right on to the end
      Tho’ you're tired and weary still journey on,
      Till you come to your happy abode
      Where all you love, you've been dreaming of
      Will be there, at the end of the road

    3. With a big stout heart to a long steep hill
      We may get there with a smile
      With a good kind thought and a mile end view
      We may cut short many a mile
      So let courage ev’ry day
      Be your guiding star alway
      Chorus .

  5. If you about to purchase a reindeer you may need to know the following :-

    REMEMBER THIS AT CHRISTMAS TIME

    According to the Alaska Department of Fish and Game, while both male and female reindeers grow antlers in the summer each year, male reindeer drop their antlers at the beginning of winter, usually late November to mid-December. Female reindeers retain their antlers till after they give birth in the spring.

    Therefore, according to EVERY historical rendition depicting Santa's reindeer, EVERY single one of them, from Rudolph to Blitzen, had to be a girl.

    We should've known.. ONLY women would be able to drag a fat-ass man in a red velvet suit all around the world in one night and not get lost.

    Sorry, had to get it in somewhere & it is Christmas.

    Cheers & Good Luck........ :o

  6. We at Manchester United are a quiet, civilised and respectable crowd and are not prone to

    gloat and crow.

    So if any riff-raff have happened by, please be informed that,

    Liverpool lost at Anfield 0 - 1 to Marvellous Manchester United

    :D:D:bah:

  7. Another False Dawn For Rafa's Reds

    Want to know why Liverpool haven't won the title in 17 years? Sunday afternoon had the answer in a nutshell.

    Once again any dreams of finally ending that long wait were put into stark focus as they failed miserably on the big occasion.

    Senor Rafa Benitez now has one solitary point from 21 against his team's most bitter rivals - reigning champions Manchester United. He also has just four wins from 21 against United, Arsenal and Chelsea. The games that really matter.

    So any delusions of being ready to take what they perceive to be their rightful place on the throne can only be seen as flattery of the most deceptive kind.

    In recent seasons Liverpool have been exposed as domestic football's equivalent of flat-track bullies, plenty good enough to crush inferior opposition but found wanting against the big guns.

    In days gone by you could just about win a title by beating the rest, but now that just won't cut it.

    In a Premier League where even one defeat can be catastrophic the mini-league between the "top four" is often now what decides who eventually takes the glory.

    The infuriating thing for Tom, George and the Anfield faithful is that the script on Sunday afternoon was so predictable. Territorial advantage, domination in terms of efforts on goal - and yet still another damaging defeat.

    Rafa's decision to start with Harry Kewell and Dirk Kuyt proved a disaster while Peter Crouch and Ryan Babel waited impatiently in the wings.

    After years of being ravaged by injury Kewell doesn't have the pace or confidence to trouble a top-line defence. Babel on the other hand does.

    Kuyt, while industrious and willing, doesn't have the guile or physical presence to cut it at the very top level. Crouch, at least, has the latter.

    By the time he did introduce the pair of them it was too late, the writing was already on the wall.

    Just as they did last March, Liverpool took their eye off the ball for one second - one fatal second.

    Then it was John O'Shea profiting, this time it was Carlos Tevez. Déjà vu, groundhog day. It was all so strikingly similar.

    You can't deny that Benitez has bought some top players to Anfield - nobody can deny the quality of the likes of Fernando Torres or Javier Mascherano.

    But despite the big-money buys, and the local backbone and brilliance provided by Steven Gerrard and Jamie Carragher, there still appears to be an ingredient missing.

    In some cases that can be provided by just one man - just remember that Sir Alex Ferguson searched six long years for the promised land before stumbling across one Eric Cantona.

    Not many managers get that long these days to come up with the goods, and the goods at Anfield right now is top spot in English football.

    Yes Benitez delivered the Champions League amid those amazing scenes in Istanbul in the summer of 2005. But right now that seems a distant memory.

    There was a time when Liverpool fans expected title glory, almost like a divine right. Now for some it must seem like an impossible dream.

    Manchester United waited 26 years to return to the summit - Liverpool have now waited 17. The similarities are striking - the sporadic brilliance, infuriating inconsistency and ability to come up short when it really matters.

    With every passing year it gets harder - former glories weigh as heavy as an albatross.

    Will Rafa be the man to finally end the drought? Right now I wouldn't bet on it. Would you?

    Congratulations on an honest and well written study of Liverpool F.C.'s current problems, and it's well worth sending to the board at Anfield in my humble opinion.

  8. I mentioned where I am because in an earlier post Zpete expressed an interest in where people were posting from. It was not meant to be a clue for the pic. :o

    The city is not Odessa nor Phnom Phen. It is nowhere in Eastern Europe.

    (although, it is very similar to Fitzroy Crossing!! :D )

    post-18822-1197806040_thumb.jpg

    I know where this signpost is. Its about 25 Km south of Derby on Hwy 1

    How much do I win....... :D

  9. Having lived in Perth for 10 years I can assure the readers/viewers that the above is

    NOT Perth (nor is it Kalgoorlie, Fitzroy Crossing or even Marble Bar)

    So please do not be fooled by and Old Croc....... :o

    It is more likely to be eastern Europe, and just to get the ball rolling I will say

    Odessa.

  10. Hey Old Croc I think I'll use your theory, but will help you get it.

    I rekon Froggy is from Quebec, Canada and many of us have posted pictures from our

    home countries early on in this series, as my internet connection is not so much slow

    as bloody near stationary today, I think you'll have to Google a few Quebec places.

    Could try, Quebec, Trois Rivers, Sherbrooke, Jonquiere.
