Strewth is he still alive? My mum liked him, and she's been dead over 30 years.

Meats and Beans (Phone: 0888759555) (7.007463, 100.48286) Airy double height new build restaurant at 35 Soi 7 Rajyindee Road, nearby the MongMoon. Opened 2 years ago but closed for Covid not long after except for take away, now back in business. The name reflects the owner's passion for good coffee and meat. The restaurant has indoors and outdoor sections, with a mix of sit up tables and chairs, or couches and coffee tables, atmosphere was pleasant, decor post industrial chic with large pot plants. I can't speak for the coffee but the steak was the best I've had in Hat Yai and as good as you'll find in most steakhouses in Bangkok. There's little on the menu except meat. Beef is sourced from Black Onyx Angus, Rangers Valley, NSW, Australia, with a choice of ribeye, flat iron, hanger and picanha steaks sold by weight; prices range from Bht220 to 390 per 100g. Apart from Kurobuta pork there's also a selection of burgers and sausages, but nothing for non-carnivores. We ordered 1 ribeye and 2 flat iron steaks plus a few sides, though when the steaks arrived they came with a creamy mash and a green salad. The service was good, plenty of information on what steaks were available and the various weights, steaks are pre-cut frozen and vacuum packed so they'll find a steak closest to the weight you ask for, they actually brought the packaged steaks to the table to confirm the order, weight is marked on the pack. The meal was excellent, the steaks were cooked as requested, the meat was flavourful, juicy and tender, couldn't have been better. For drinks, apart from coffee, there's a selection of bottled beers and draught Singha available. I noticed someone drinking wine but I didn't see a wine list. Total cost for 3 steaks, sides and drinks was Bht3,445 not cheap but not expensive for what we had. Overall an enjoyable experience so we'll be back.

I bet when he woke up this morning he was cursing his luck and wishing he'd stayed at Ajax rather than trying to manage this bunch of show ponies. UTV -

Well if if you don't it will certainly seem so. I do what I like, I don't have rules as I know I will break them. We all die someday, so might as well enjoy the time I have.

I've been a Linux user for 12 years and have never had an issue, there is a basic firewall that comes with most distros, I'm currently using Linux Mint, this I have enabled, but I don't have any antivirus/malware software. It's not easy for malware to thrive in the Linux environment, nothing is going to run unless you're prone to typing in your sudo password without thinking, most people don't.

Singha is streets ahead of Buttwiper! Singha is drinkable, Buttwiper is just unpleasant gnat's wee. .

Hat Yai has good air quality most of the year. Except when the burning season in Indonesia goes wild, then we can sometimes get the 'Haze' on days in August through September. Generally anywhere on the peninsular has reasonably good air quality because there's usually a breeze of clean air coming off the sea. BTW those city population numbers are only part of the picture. Hat Yai for example, the figure of 157K is for Mueang Hat Yai, but the city in reality includes several adjoining districts; Khuan Lang, Kho Hong, Klong Hae, Ta Chang, Ban Phru. So the actual population of greater Hat Yai is over 400k. The same is true of Chiang Mai, Korat etc. .

I've 2 GiffGaff sims I keep alive, they usually connect to AIS because that's the stronger signal here, however they do sometimes connect to Dtac, or one on AIS and one on Dtac. So both networks are available.

Yes, the Buttwiper is a waste of space

In the spirit of research, last night I checked out a pint of Guinness in the Post Laser Disc Pub here in Hat Yai. Not a bad pint at all, though at Bht265 it ought to be good.

Southern Thailand isn't Afghanistan. Though many Muslim women do wear a tudong or hijab, which is a head scarf and doesn't cover the face. There are a few that wear an abaya and even fewer the niqab, full length cloaks and veils that cover the face but not the eyes. I've never seen anyone in a burqa. A few Muslim men wear a thobe, the long ankle length shirt, together with the little cap or kufi, they're the ones accompanied by a wife in an abaya or niqab. But there is no compulsory dress code down here. .

Where's the confusion the OP asked "What is the best UK sim card to use in Thailand" (my emphasis) you responded with "I used to use Giffgaff and still have 2 active Sims but o2 signal which they use is poor where I'm moving to shortly" - O2 is the network GiffGaff use in the UK, which has no relevance to the Thailand.

Mine is still working, I pay Spotify with it monthly. There's no link for the K-Online Debit card from the app, but you can access from the online bank website. As I said mine is valid though there appear to be changes coming. The website has the following message: To Apply New K Online Debit Card will be available soon! Existing customers can normally make transactions. -
O2? The question was use in Thailand, GiffGaff works fine on AIS.
