I don't see the problem, why is someone using a mobile all of a sudden such a nuisance on the plane. I couldn't care less.

Emirates is the first airline that allows his customers to use mobile phones during the flight. I think it was only a matter of time before this would happen, and I don't see any problems with it.

You say that you dont see a problem with it. Have you ever sat next to someone who was shouting down a mobile phone for an hour? Because trust me with all the background noise and the blocked ears most users are going to SHOUT. If you are trying to catch some Zzzzs this will become a problem for even the most tolerant. As for those that have no patients they will kick up a fuss causing more discomfort and annoyance to people surrounding them. As bad ideas go its up there with nuclear power stations in Thailand.

Well I had Avast and Mc Affee installed and recently my harddisk was wiped out due to some kind of Trojan or virus.

Also had Zonealarm running.

MC Affee found the virus and Trojan but was not able to clean or remove it, Avast detected nothing.

Did a leaktest at GRC and was able to connect with the server meaning it will not give full protection.

Zonealarm I mean.

That is why I am asking.

I also have McAfee and avast on my pc. I was told to stop running them both at the same time as they would conflict and slow down my pc considerably. Think I am going to have to nerd up and find out for sure.

Does anybody know anyone who is for being able to use your mobile phone on planes? I have certainly never heard anyone say that they think it will be a good thing. How is this even being considered? Me thinks maybe its the minority buisness and first class passengers that the airlines are trying to please. Thats where the money is for airlines. Any ideas of how much the airlines and mobile service providers are thinking of charging per minute for these in air calls? Its probably going to make mobile roaming tarrifs appear cheap.

I think for most people the the idea of having a unhappy baby or overtired child screaming and crying next to you on a plane is the ultimate in nightmare plane journeys. It could soon change to the over excited tourist who just had the best time ever on Koh Samui and wants to tell every datail of the holiday to Mum, Dad, Tracy, Michelle, David, Nan and the neighbours dog. Is there such a thing as "Air-rage" yet?

Well Avast antivirus must surely be the best? Its free and some of the most tech-savy people I know use it. Never heard any complaints.

Thai Airways plans to order a total of 65 new planes

THAI in market for eight more large jets

BANGKOK: -- Thai Airways International Plc intends to order eight planes that can seat at least 400 passengers as part of a decade-long plan to replace its ageing fleet. The national carrier may add to its existing order for six Airbus A380s or opt for Boeing 747-8s, said vice-president Teeratat Pornpiboon. It will also buy 23 smaller planes, such as 787s or A350s.

A decade long plan that is a decade too late.

It was very interesting to read the " Best video game ever" post. Really made me feel my age. Got me to thinking about some of the games that I read previews on and looked forward to playing, only to be majorly dissapointed at such a poor effort. A few come to mind.

Knightrider on the PS2: Some things are best left in your childhood.

Getaway2 Black Monday PS2: The first one was great. What went wrong?

Demolition Derby2 PS2: The PS1 version was a smashing success.

Driver 3 PS2: The most hyped game ever. Lost Millions of £s.

There are a few more that have been erased from the harddrive that is my brain, but will add them when they come back to me.

I just spoke to my solicitor. He told me that if you post it I wont get in trouble. You can now post it without any worries. Lil Lil

Have you looked down the back of the sofa? If its not there you should find that any LG DVD remote will work with your DVD player. This is the case with many companys. If you can borrow one from a friend check it out.

I use to have a digital remote watch that had the different codes for all the top brands. I could turn off or over any TV, DVD player or stereo that I was near. Use to annoy the hel_l out of people.

Is it bcoz I is black?

I have seen loads of vulgar Tee-Shirts here in Pattaya:

"I'm the best F*** in the world"

"Hot Pu***"

"Every Hole Please"

"Finger Me"

"Soak My A***"

And the worst has got to be:

"Good Guys Go To Heaven, Bad Guys Go To Pattaya"

The best worst one is " <deleted> you you F4ckin3 F3ck." Straight to the point and no chance of misunderstanding that one

If you knew anything about rugby you wouldn't have posted this.

A term coined by Jim Simms some 20 years ago, this is rugby humour for someone who plays for, or even supports, another team rather than their own (ie the winning team).

Yes I know 'whore' is an offensive word, but it has to be taken in context. If she had a shirt saying "I am a whore", then you should have intervened and explained, but in this context it is absolutely harmless.

Rugby humour and mentality is not easy to understand if you have never played. My guess is that her farang boyfriend/ husband is a rugby fan and give her this shirt in good faith.

My motto - keep your nose out of things that you don't understand, you end up looking more foolish than your alleged 'victim'.

Here Here. Quite obviously it does not mean the wearer is a whore but a lover of rugby. Should change the words to "I love a game where big sweaty men grap each other all over and are watched by big sweaty men who think they know what sport is" Would need to be an XXXL t-shirt, but this will fit most supporters.

Look forward to the abuse I am going to get from this like snow in April.

A bit dark

Once you have your cheapest price ring flightcentre (www.) and they will beat your price. Might only be a fiver but better than a kick up the bum.

I have started looking for a one way flight to Thailand today the prices I am getting a joke planing to fly from Glasgow 1st May the cheapest I got £410after taxes They have got to be taking the bloodly piss my flight last year was about the same price return anybody know any companys I could use tried ebookers , travelbag and dial a flight any help would be great folks

Thats about the price you have to pay. I know how you feel. I just payed £600 for a flight with Thai crapways BKK TO LHR. You might want to buy a open return now, as its only going to get more expensive.

The UN Irish pub shows most Pemier league games on Saturday and Sunday. They have 3 screens and often show two games at a time. They have a mix of customers young and old. They have all the beers and Guinness on draught. I have been to many of CMs bars, but this one ticks most of the boxes when it comes to footie. They advertise all there matches and times on large chalk boards and on monthly sports fixture brochure.

If the translation of the document was correct, the order was to kill drug users and sellers. It just beggars beleif how the high ranking police officer could deny it even when he was reading it. It was so ridiculous that even he had to call for a time out. In Britain you get MPs who duck a question or refuse to give a straight answer, but in Thailand they just give you a bare faced denial of the facts that are presented to them. They might as well stick there fingers in there ears and say "bla bla bla I cant here you". It makes you want to scream. Its like when I was a kid and i had done something naughty. I would deny it untill I was blue in the face even though I had been seen throwing the stone by my neighbour. This was because i was stupid and 10 years old. I am all grown up now and only lie about how many beers I had last night and how good a goal I scored at football.

I think the thai ministers and senior policeman should come to England and mix with our equivalant. They could then learn how to tell a half decent lie or how to dodge a straight question.

I really do love Thailand. Its brilliant!

My friend just bought a 53sq m condo in Central CM and had the electrics renewed and burried in the wall. New shower ,toilet tiles etc. Basically he had the whole place renovated and he now owns it. Just under 700 000 baht. It took 2 men 2 weeks to do it. So unless you are using Burmese Teak or Carbon fibre to build your units and wardrobe I would say your man has mistakenly added an extra 0 on the price.

Tell him to "Jog on"

Krabi airlines. The name would put many off. Whose planes will they be using? Maybe they will be borrowing Phuket airlines old crates.

So, should I sell my house now?

Do a King Soloman and offer it all to the temple that the monk practices at. Oh the look on her face would be worth it. I don't think King Soloman actually did that but he did those kind of things. Well actually he is fictional is'nt he? Well thats enough from me as I am now going to climb into a big hole.

How very very sad. my condolences to the family.

I second that.

How does a family ever come to terms with something like that happening? . Life can be so cruel.

I dont suppose that they will be useing the Thai air 747 that I flew on last week from Bkk to london in. I think that even the local marine life would be dissapointed with such an old crate.

My friend. you sound like a nice person . For this I am prepared to do you a good favours. You can transfer you funds into my bank account and I will meet you in Mcdonalds after you arrive in Thailand. My bank is the Bank of Lagos. Account name My Ungogo. I am thinking I should maybe PM you the rest of my details as there are many crooked peoples out there.

Many thank you.

Mr Ungogo

With the way airfares are going (up up and away) you may be better off buying a one year open return. You should have no problems with the visa as I and many of my friends have been doing it for years.

Have a good one.

If anyone can quess where this toilet is ? I will buy you a meal in the very same place. Little clue, its in Chiang Mai.
