methinks wikipedia lists dozens of predatory birds in thailand. mealsothinks i've never seen one here in the islands. i'd understand if no one has seen an owl.

Sea eagles swooping over Choeng Mon late afternoon....a lovely sight....

I see eagles daily soaring around the mountains behind my house nr tesco,and over chaweng lake in the evening,was worrying walking the dog,as they flew a bit too close to him....i saw an owl of similar build and colour to a uk barn owl one night near the chaweng police station.....i.thought i was tripping..!

Until someone closer (knew both) to the family is known I try to collect some names that are willing to help/assist by any means in her future efforts to organize this horrible ordeal. I'd reckon any suggestions are welcome.

R.I.P SAM

R.I.P Sam........this is a very serious subject,i do worry about the amount of deaths here......i have driven here for 7 years,touch wood,nothing serious for me...but the state of some of the driving is laughable............helmet for me now,and a greatly reduced speed..............good luck to all who drive,bike or car..!

Awesome idea!

Just wish you were going the other way!

Richy...have u spoke to RUM lately in phuket?????

Where about is it exactly? Could you give me some directions heading in to Chaweng from the Tesco turning? I'm looking for a bike computer.

Matt.

The shop is very near to BAR ICE......,

,,,behind chaweng centre lake.....easy to find..

Roo Hi. It is something we are looking into as people are asking for it. They would like to get a hot curry, rice and or chips or Pie mash, veg and gravy delivered. The problem we have is getting the food to the customer hot. We may try it around the Chawang, Maenam, Bangrak, Plailem area and see what the response is. We aim to please as they say Not everyone has access to an oven or microwave.

If you want it you can have it!

We had somebody ask if we could do him some sausage rolls with the same pastry as the pies. No problem. He just lets us know how many he wants and we make them up especially for him. All part of the service You being a God that is a Mod we can always race round a dish of your choice We can't be having hungry Mods on the forum now can we

Hi...will your new website have a full menu and pricelist of your products?....also is there any discount for falang samui residents?...thanks

I Hear you Smokie. You would think that there would be more wouldn't you. I know Coyote do a buy one get one free on Singha bottles and house margaritas till 7pm. Other than that, can't think of any.

To the left of the old coco blues bar..{now kasikorn bank}....small bar{strange name..i forget}....singhas etc 60 bht til 10......good stuff...

it's time to install water tank, governement water is totally unreliable...

We live down from tescos..no nam for 3 days..getting ridiculous....any water the government does turn on,its mud brown...might go on holiday somewhere..!

Maybe it made a difference I wouldn't like to speculate but I do know that greedy b*llocks carmine did his monthly shop in Tesco this morning.

Get your shopping earlier!

Your a fine one to talk lard arse.

Haa hee ha....sort it out you hogs..!
