I miss bakeries, very difficult to get a decent pie, loaf of bread or sandwich here.

If only Greggs would open some bakeries over here... Sausage Rolls to die for!

No PR is passed rel="nofollow" is used.

What is the policy regarding linking to stories in The Bangkok Post? Is that prohibited too?

Of course it's not! As a web publisher myself, Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) relies on 2 things:

1. Online optimisation (content, relevancy, keyword density, page layout, site structure, and so on..)

2. Off line optimisation ( non-reciprocal linking from other sites, blogs, and forums, along with visibility (promotion & traffic))

In fact, it is these 2 things mainly (plus a bunch of lesser variables) that gets websites found on search engines. This means that any online project just loves getting links to its pages, especially if they are free and come from aged, authority sites with Google Page Rank (PR).

Apart from the above, it is no crime in any country for any one website to hyperlink to another. No such law exists anywhere, nor would it serve any useful purpose.

Aitch

The problem is, when someone copy's and pastes large chunks of text from somewhere, if Googlebot, Slurp or MSNbot has not already crawled that content but finds it first on the site where it has just been copied to, that site will get the credit for it in the search engine result pages (SERPS) the bots will think that is the authority for that content. It is the search engines goal to give us ten different results on a results search page. So whoever's content is crawled first will get that benefit whilst the search engines filter any other pages/documents with the exact same content.

For all the unhappy people....

Scenario....laying in some alley off Walking Street just had a bottle smashed over your head by some nutter and you don't know whats going on around you....

A: Thai police arrive speaking in Thai only not really interested in you and making you feel even more freaked out then what you are.

B: Tourist police arrive speaking in your native language and doing everything possible to help you.

I'll take option B all day long, thanks.

These girls have got more tricks then Harry Potter.

Rest assured, your girl friend or wife is more than likely closing her eyes and thinking of a 45-55 year old man when she is with you physically.

Especially if your 65-75.

I don't believe it was scripted for one minute, I think someone is just trying to wind you up, don't bite.

Like this scene was scrptied as well

Great show looking forward to part 2 just a bit annoying with my internet speed it takes forever to download just 10 minutes on youtube

Yes you evil evil man how can you do such a thing? You worked 7 days a week to do the best for your family, you sacrificed your social life and lost contact with many many friends due to being a devoted father and husband. You never drank, smoked or asked for anything for yourself, as long as the family had whatever they needed you was happy.

Then one day you returned home from work and your wife and kid(s) had gone to live with another man who she had fallen in love with, she said she had fallen out of love with you and needed to "find herself" She made it difficult to get reasonable access to see the kids, she took you to court and you lost practically everything.

The wife and kid(s) now live another big house with the new man in her life, he has a good job, they have plenty of cash, the kids will NOT go without other then a once a fortnight Saturday afternoon single dad with the kids at Mc Donalds trying desperately to smile and look like you can cope with the trauma of being left with nothing other then having your guts ripped out and stamped on and kicked down the street.

The new man drives past with YOUR kids in the truck taking them to the football game, you stand there helpless, lifeless as you watch the only thing in your life you ever loved being taken over by someone else.

So how god damned dare you go and try and find some happiness elsewhere and pick your life up and try and start again. How dare you even CONTEMPLATE that the kid(s) won't be kid(s) forever and you can have a future together when their old enough to make their own decisions on how mum ripped you all apart because of her selfish and self obsessed westernized ways.

I was talking with a friend this morning and we were discussing events in Ranong. I mentioned these 2 guys, and my friensd said they were given 1 hour notice of their death. Apparently they had 3 choices, a visit from a monk, a phone call to a family member, or a meal of their choice. Apparently they chose a pizza. I talked with my wife and we both went for the phone call. Don't shoot me down if I'm wrong, it's just what was told to me.

If only they could of made it 4 choices it could of been a good contender for who wants to be a millionaire.

The incident came after police on Thursday said they had arrested another Singaporean and a Malaysian national on charges of trying to smuggle one tonne of marijuana out of the country.

God, what size underpants did he have on?

Dunno, but ive heard of Y-fronts but E-fronts?

If only Connect-4 were an Olympic sport, Thailand would win the womens' Gold-Medal, every time.

Ha ha, how true is that!

But when Thais do the same, they must be doing something wrong, at least according to some know-it-all Brits....your expertise in this is about as good as the chances of England winning Germany in football...ouch.

And your Grammar is on a par with a 5 year old. It should be "England beating Germany at football".

I think that England 'won' Germany back in 1945 .....did'nt they .

Two world wars and one world cup.

One morning I grabbed my corn flakes box that was on top of the fridge half naked and half asleep then something sprang from the packet and run down my body, I immediately threw the box into the air, it hit the ceiling and corn flakes went all over the kitchen floor. It turned out to be a gecko as i saw it run off across the floor a few seconds later, it had been eating ants that had decided my corn flakes were on their menu for the day! Anyway i felt a right wuss after i realized what it was and was more annoyed at the ants as i didn't have anything to eat!

That's right Abrak and how many over the years have got married and gone to live overseas only to find out that their Mr Millionaire husband ain't such a big shot after all. It is almost impossible to change their minds unless they have been strung along then gone to live in farang land only to find out that her Donald Trump is really nothing more then a two bob schmuck, living in a council flat without a pot to piss in.

A top showcase girl in a GoGo would expect 30-50,000 a month to leave and be a "kept" woman. An average BG would have to go with at least 2 or 3 customers a day to earn that, so unless your GF is some super stunner that turns heads on every Soi shes being completely unrealistic in the real world.

Remember every woman is worth something, whether they are a BG or not, that doesn't mean you need to give them a salary that's not right but if she is that important in your life and makes your life that much better then there is no harm in topping her wages up now and then so shes knows you appreciate her. ALL WOMEN need to feel appreciated, lose that thought and you will lose her.....eventually.

I just hope that he lives to be 100 so that the punishment is a long slow death for the vermon. He knew what he was getting into so now he has reaped his reward. I know that all the other criminals and low lifes in the world will come out and say his punishment is to hard but theses types allways stick together.

The sentence was right anything less would of given out the wrong message. That however does not take away the fact, that you sound like, a proper prize prat.

Well...these huge dicounts just show how over-priced the market is at the main tourist destinations!!

there are only 3 things that count: location, location, and umm.... location!

I have been observing the Pattaya market for over a year now, and prices are definitely falling, and there are also more properties for sale (I mean, not projects, actual properties for sale by their current private owner).

Thank you for that detailed 12 month observation, I sense a new Alan Sugar in the making.

If God said to me "son I will give you another chance you can be any nationality in the world what will it be" Id reply thank you for the offer but you got it right the first time round....I'm Proud to be British. And for any of the Brit bashers here, you either feel inferior for some reason or jealous and for the Brits bashing other Brits you don't deserve to be British.

I was about to jack it in , but just won 4000bt on the lottery . So that should keep me going another week , As long as i dont get robbed by these theiving ,lying, rule changing Thais. If i do, I'm off back to SE London . So friendly there .

Are you taking the piss?

People are about as happy as they make up their minds to be.

i thought 'muu flu' sounded nice, but now... DISCO FEVER! god, i love being alive!

The theme tune to Saturday night fever started paying in my mind as i read that.........staying alive staying alive

You couldn't make it up. RIP old boy.

I predict a new fashion statement is on the way for Pattaya!

Another Hello Kitty product in the making now.

There is a hospital in a town located north of Pattaya called Phayathai hospital in Sriracha with a decent reputation for quality and friendlier pricing than the Pattaya expat hospitals. I have PMed you with an English speaking contact there.
