  1. foodie dude's advise might be spot on but I'm guessing he is the owner of Tiger Tiger :D

    I'd go along with UG's recommendations, he has been here over twenty years and he know's his food.

    I'd also agree you can't go wrong with the Dukes

    I find it hard to believe that an American restaurant can cook a traditional Christmas dinner the way the the British do

    I'm not even sure that they would serve up turkey due to the fact that they have only justed just finishing gorging themselves with it from a month before :)

    As I understand christmas pud is not normally on the menu :D so that basically ses it all.

    Alfieconn I hope you have a steel pot and flak jacket at the ready for some American incoming.

  2. I am signed up to assist at the habitat for humanity project and was excited to learn Trisha Yearwood and Jet Li are going to be there. I also see alleged President Carter will be there, but as it is for a good cause I will go anyway.

    No doubt a few more star stalkers will sign up.

  3. Cambodia has no air force.

    About 25 aircraft in total, less than 10 fighters, and those fighters are planes that are exposed in historical museums in Europe: i.e. Mig 21 for example.

    Thailand has over 100 fighters, mainly F-16 and F-5.

    Cambodia's tanks look no better, they use T-54 and Chinese T-59 - these too are mainly known from war museums, and are outnumbered 1 to 10 by Thailand's much more modern machinery.

    Taking a wild guess, I would say Thailand is stronger by a factor of 100.

    But as many said before, such a war won't happen. For what ??

    And there is just no realistic scenario that could lead to war: Cambodia is in no position to attack, so the attack should come from Thailand ?? For what ??

    A war is something totally different from some practice shooting on some former Khmer Rouge soldiers in the Preah Vihar region...

    The North Vietnam and the Viet Cong didn't exactly have the Americans and South Vietnam quaking in their boots with their bombing campaign, and the fearsome thai soldiers that legged it from Dien Bien Phu from their French allies before a shot was fired by the Viet Mihn.

    Cambodia 2-1 odds on favourite

  4. Seems like it's a TV pass-time to rate threads with 1 star. What the heck is that about? Is life so boring that you have to rate others threads as having no value?

    I never understood this because as there are some very good threads that get rated low... Oh well no accounting for intelligence, eh? :)

    I usually go for the Topic that catches my eye I no matter how many stars it has,on saying that I've only found out how to give a rating after reading this so I've given you 5 stars,cause I learned something from this post,Happy Birthday.laugh.gif

  5. I just noticed in an earlier post you asked about "red light districts"

    This is not like the western world, pretty much every bar and coffee shop has working girls so the whole town could be considered a red light district.

    The ladies are all very pleasant, most western women don't evan realise what is happening around them.

    Are you sure you live in Chiang Mai?

    Maybe your confused with Pattaya or your regular night out is Lo kroh road and nowhere else.

  6. Have just watched England versus Slovenia, and whilst not great, there were signs that with a mixture of young and old they could advance into the latter stages of the World Cup.

    The last eight and with luck we could go further.

    How far will England go?

    Same as previous world cups,they will have won it before the first ball of the competion has been kicked,and then slag their players and manager off when they get knocked out due to the press brain washing the fans.Same same but no different.

  7. Peace in Ireland?

    The man who personally authored legislation to prevent anyone born in the United Kingdom of Scotland, England, Wales but NOT Northern Ireland from ever competing in the US Green Card lottery? This because he opposed the Unionists in favour of... what was the opposition called again?

    Well done Ted.

    R.I.P.

    (Don't spin too much willya Teddy?)

    I'm sure the innocent dead will be pleased to hear that
