Dilligad, unfortunately my friend was ill last week, and we were unable to go. we are hoping to go this coming tuesday. as soon as we have been i will let you know. cheers

just a quick question, a couple of years ago, Frank at "living in the past" used to sell pies and pizzas and bacon and sausages. Then he stopped, but a couple of days ago i was talking to someone and they said that he had started selling them again. Can anyone confirm this please.

jenny i will be there tomorrow, maybe you would like to come and pay for my pepperoni pizza and a side of fries.

i really want to go to this place with my mate, but want to know the opening hours if anyone can tell me cheers

Dilligad, thanks for that, just one more question do you know the opening hours, unfortunately i am having trouble with my facebook, so can't get on their page cheers

I would appreciate directions on how to get there, say from the train station thanks really missing a great pizza and decent chinese food.

I had this same package installed a month ago, and have had nothing but trouble with it. Since they installed it, it takes at least an hour, sometimes 2, before i get any signal on my tv. The so called hi speed internet is actually slower than the one I had with TOT. I was originally paying 1,900 baht a month for my TV service, I now pay 2,500 baht for the new package, which was supposed to include my landline telephone, as well as i think 200 minutes free calls a month on my mobile (they gave me my new sim, on the day they installed everything). But low and behold I recieved a bill from a company called CAT, for the monthly rental of my new landline number, and a bill for 2 calls made on the landline. My wife has been calling them everyday for the last 2 weeks to get someone to come out and repair the connection, but all we get is "we check for you, and will call back" but so far no call back. So yesterday she informed them that we won't be paying the bill, and want it all taken out, so we now wait to see what happens.

cheers happylarry. does anyone know where i can get one of these android boxes

I appreciate all your replies. Firstly let me say i am completely ignorant of anything to do with computer speeds and anything technical concerning computers. all i know is i pay and expect good service. they advertise 4g hi speed and i am certainly not getting hi speed. before my tv was ok, only going off when it rained heaviley. now on certain channels when i first turn on, apart from taking a long time to actually get a signal. it is flicking on/off and the picture sometimes freezes. this goes on for sometimes 1 hour, sometimes a few hours. But my computer gets a signal immediately.i have seen these tv boxes advertised on here from different people, some are an outright buy of 4,000 baht, and no monthly payment. others are pay 2,000 baht for the box and pay about 1000 baht a month. but all say they have all tv channels from the uk, and all sports channels. i only watch mainly news channels, but sports channels are a must for me. my question about these boxes are that it seems i have to run a cable from my computer to the box by my tv, but my computer is quite a long way from my tv, so it would seem that i would have to run cables along the walls or floor and this would mean drilling holes through walls, and having unsitely cables showing. is there any other way of doing this that dosen't mean me having these cables. 

Ubonjoe, as turning off the power and cleaning the card is true's answer to all problems, i tried that several times in the last few days, and it made absolutely no difference. anyway am now talking to  a guy from Pulse tv. to get a box of him. does anyone have pulse.

I have had true visions for my television viewing for 14 years, but my home phone and internet was from TOT. Although TOT wasn't spectacularly fast it was pretty reliable. Anyway I recently got a new computer, and just after i had bought it, we got a call from a true visions rep, asking if we would like to get our internet from them. They explained that it was hi speed, and as everything including our wi-fi, and tv would come through the one connection, it would be much better for us. They assured us that in the future no matter how hard it rained we would not lose our tv reception, and our home phone would also come from them. I agreed and within 2 days they came and fitted everything. Since then i have had nothing but problems, my tv takes anything upto 2 hours before we get a signal when we turn it on in the morning, and on certain channels like CNN and BBC news the picture keeps freezing or going on and off, and the message appears on the screen that the connection needs to be checked. my computer is actually slower than it was with TOT, and i am also experiencing difficulties getting on some sites and again the screen keeps freezing. I have called True a half a dozen times in the last few days, and got no help at all. I was wondering if anyone else is having any problems with them. I live just outside of Sisaket. cheers

Thanks for the update, i suppose a small turkey will suffice cheers

Amvet, Trump himself admitted lying under oath, when he was taken to court when he was accused of discriminating about letting properties to people, he said he had never stopped black people from renting property from him, but when confronted with written evidence,i.e. correspondence with his staff, that no black people can rent property. he admitted he may have been wrong in the evidence that he gave in court, and he was fined for making a false statement. they were told to tick a box marked "C" if any coloured people applied for a property, "C" standing for coloured, and they immediately rejected.

As a Brit, I have never really followed American politics(god knows we have enough problems of our own).But these days I find myself switching on the TV in the morning just to see what Trump has tweeted overnight. I have to say I have been alive in the times of a few presidents, the first i really remember was i suppose Nixon because of the scandal.

But I have to say in all honesty I have never heard any of them speak in the way Trump does. He is so infantile, he is 71 going on 17. He is the typical schoolyard bully. He insults Mcain, who suffered so many years of torture, yet there was no chance of Trump being taken POW, he was to chicken to go and serve his country, getting 5 deferements. He says that the NFL players are disrespecting the military and the country, well isn't running away from military service doing the same, and then bragging that instead of dodging bullets in Vietnam, he was dodging VD in New York.

He brags all the time about his family, but I think the first thing he taught his kids from the minute they could speak was, never tell the truth, lie as often as you can, and eventually some idiots will believe it. I am sure that is what he was taught by his father. He liked to brag on the campaign trail about how rich he was, I wonder if he ever thought about paying back all the small contractors who he forced into bankruptcy, when he refused to pay them for work they did for him.

I could go on for hours, but I guess as a brit I will get loads of stick for this post. I can understand Americans not wanting to vote for Clinton, but surely there was a better alternative somewhere. And yet I would bet my house that he gets electe again in 2020.

Does anyone know if either the Tops in Robinsons or any of the other big supermarkets in Ubon are stocking turkey breast joints for xmas. cheers in advance for any help.

am getting a delivery of 2 packs of meat and potatoe and 2 packs of cheese and onion next week can't wait.

Weren't these the same people that took over the Pattaya one also. They turned it into something called the Acorn. It lasted just a few months as well, the prices supposedly sky high. And now the same thing in Jomtien. I thought the biggest mistake they made was letting Stuart go, as last I heard he was doing very well in Frasers. And I don't know how true it is, but I also heard that they have bought the Sportsmans on soi 13, if so lets hope the do a better job there.

manxninja, big ureself up man, it was only last week on a topic about fishing , that you told a guy that u were on the IOM. so lets be honest if you were going to the big house for at least a 12 stretch, anywhere else in the uk I doubt you would get bail. and I also guess that if u r going down for at least a 12 stretch, they may have frozen your assets.Lets be honest if you have commited a crime that is so serious that you will be going to a maximum security facility, then you would not be on bail and definitely not on the internet, stop talking crap.

To al you guys. I think that I have been proved right here. There was never any jail sentence. It was a load of BS. And if you want to see what a bs manxninja is just go to 'Pattaya secrets"

Stoneyboy wow did you not get any pressies for Christmas this year. I have never seen anywhere that a topic had to be related specifically to pattaya. A open forum is for people to express their views isn't it. And if it's got nothing to do with either pattaya or Thailand why did you bother commenting DELETED

Stoneyboy, as i said individual taste mate.

rws85 cheers mate, I think this version is totally insane

I have never been a fan of anyone doing cover versions of classic songs. They usually are always crap. i.e American Pie- Madonna, or Without You,- Mariah Carey.

But I came across something today, that I thought was absolutely Freaking awesome. Maybe other people won't, but it is all down to individual tastes.

But here lies the problem, I am not computer savvie, so I don't know how to upload to here. So if anyone is feeling kind, please go to you tube and search for " Sound of Silence" by 'David Draiman".

If anyone would be kind enough to upload it, I am sure you won't be disappointed cheers.

rocketboybkk, I have no reason to lie, I gain nothing by it. What I am trying to point out is that the IOM, is very hard on drug crime. As for my friend, when I say a small amount, obviously I don't mean just a couple of spliffs, but he was also not caught with 50,000 quids worth either, which is what would justify a 12 year sentence in the rest of Britain. And admittedly it wasn't his first offence.

Over the past decade or so, the population has increased a lot on the island, probably something like 80,000 people now, and with more people comes more crime. I would think that per head of population the island has a drug problem that is comparable with anywhere in Europe, but the government are determined to try and discourage people to import drugs, sadly it will probably never work, money rules.

As for the op, I hope that he is not going to prison for drug related crimes, but the saving grace is that the IOM prison is pretty new, and is a bit like a holiday camp, albeit with walls.

lostinissan, I can assume that if he is getting a long sentence in the isle of man, then he has to have commited a really serious crime. and long sentences are only usually meated out for murder or drug related crimes, there are also the odd time that people involved in financial crimes that involve positions of trust are sentenced to long sentences. but as I said if someone states that they know that they are going to prison for a few years, it is unlikely that they are walking around free. it is very easy to leave a small island, without people noticing.
