Thailand Needs Cricket

Featured Replies

I had a quick skim through the 2800 odd posts and I do have a problem that I don't think has been addressed in in this thread, and I don't know how cricket can fix this.

Seat belts in Taxis.

More specifically, how to stop the owners tying the belts under the seats so you cannot use them.

Little Brother, You raise a valid concern re seat belts in taxis.

However, I do believe that cricket can address this problem, as SC will ensure that all Cheer Squad Members wear their belts when travelling,

creating a flow on situation in the education of family, friend, work mates and so on.

When this is achieved, taxi customers will require that all taxis have, proper operating seat belts and they are not tied under the seat.

These are my thoughts on what I do believe, is a serious problem, here in Thailand

or should that be..all Cheer Squad Members wear only their belts when travelling,

Can't distract SC...he has to keep his eyes on the road.

Yeah. but wasn't it one of the requirements, for him to be driver, that he had a Cheer Squad Leader on each knee?

Official notice being handed in.

Will contribute, one or two last times before I go.

Up to brit1984 to declare the position of Promotions Manager open.

Maybe harrry has the bottle to do it.

I have to drive wearing my welders' goggles, or i get too easily distracted.

For taxis, my suggestion would be to remove the back seats, and have standing room only. It may be necessary to remove the rear portion of the roof, to allow one to stand and wave to the crowd as one passes

and then there was the legend of Gunga Din inspired by English cricketers in the imperial victorian diaspora..in the classic film Victor MacLaughlin shouts: 'shoot that bastid!'...and then Cary Grant sez: 'mebbe you can shoot the messenger but never shoot the tea boy...' and the rest, as they say, is history...

Good photo by the way

The question is often asken 'What problems in Thailand can't Cricket fix?'

Well here is a TVF Member in desperate with his thread ... I Blew Up At The Missus This Evening

How can cricket help him? sad015.gif Ha ha ha ... maybe in this particular circumstance, maybe a coffee shared with kevjohn and a nice dollop of the sincerity that he is famous may help his soul ... not mend his problem ... but bring a smile to a man who appears to have reached his life's nadir.

I have followed that thread and, yes, he does seem to have problems.

If sharing a coffee and a nice dollop of sincerity would help, then I would most certainly oblige.

As for making him smile, he would only need to watch me trying to play cricket.

I am not an expert on solving marital problems but I do believe that one of the best medicines, and it is free, is "A Good Old Laugh"

As I say "A Laugh a Day keeps the Doctor away"

And if anyone wonders why I post in this thread and not some of the doom and gloom topics, it is, I get my dose of "Laughter" here.

Just a gut feeling, but you might want to go back to the OP (Opening Post) and actually count how many of the runs you have scored here ... no doubt you have been the major contributor?

Might even be more then half of your total posts.

You mention george often ... do you know him from a previous life?

Just clearing out the Desk.

Here is one thought for future promotion that I was to bring up later for discussion.

Over in the Sports Forum, someone mentioned Morris Dancing which they refer to as a 'Knees Up'

This Lassie was having her own knees up here ... maybe she was asking for an Autograph?

Focus on the knees, boys.

Remember, we're not the team with two <deleted> - there's a lot more than two of us...

We're not even the team with two cheeks - that would be a bit biblical, so it would.
