  1. it seems the mayor has a cunning plan to get tourists to spend more time and money in the city - you simply prevent them from ever leaving! lol

  4. Back at the flat. Had lunch with Sally as she is off work today.we went to the Italian restaurant Jan loved so much. We went to the cemetery this morning to lay flowers on Jan’s and her daughter Jenny’s graves. We both find it comforting to just have a chat with them, helps us both a lot.

  7. RIP Steve. My thoughts go out immediately to his brother Ian. Such a Nice chap and we spent many hours in NEP talking about all sorts of shit and particularly how Steve's "funny voice" was just a random idea before recording "Smile". I think he lives in Hua Hin now...If I was there I'd seek him out for a pint but of course he has greater things on his mind now ..

  12. Rumours abound that this was a set up for publicity, as the guy ordered however many hundred shots, which would be enough to have the entire Soi pissed up. Having not witnessed it myself, I can only go with the more sensible and realistic version of events that it was indeed a publicity stunt. I was in Mistys on Pattayaland 2 when the legends "Razor" and "Slasha" were having a bell ringing competition. Both very successful businessmen from HK and both very affable chaps. Wouldn't accept any drinks in return and told me to "just enjoy myself and avail of the free drinks coming my way". I think the legendary LDK was in the bar at the same time.

  15. Whilst the thread's in danger of entering into 'politics', i have to say reading the thread just now has just put me in the mood to go get a couple of pots of my favourite Israeli hummus. The best in the world IMO. Might even look at getting the Barclays Clarity Card. As someone who grew up somewhere where terrorists were ubiquitous, i support anything that helps eradicate them. Kap Pom!

  17. It's like a bad time warp. If I went back to enjoy easy pickings of young impressionable girls that would also mean I would revert back to being a flaming alcoholic drug addict. Not a good trade no matter how you look at it

  22. ^^^ Respect to LEO's involved, but I cringed when I saw the officer start shooting at the lowlife in the Walmart parking lot with the building and other civilians in the line of fire. At the 01:24 mark you can see a silver car backing out of a parking spot as the lowlife runs past the car with the officer shooting at him. Also at that distance the officer had little chance of accurate fire with his handgun. Lucky for the driver of the car he didn't catch a stray round. Edited to add: And WTF, putting the lowlife uncuffed into the passenger seat of the K9 vehicle with the keys in the ignition and a rifle that was probably unlocked with a key on the key ring.

  23. Yep, the M25 is indeed closed in one section this weekend for the first time in years to demolish a bridge. Not that the M25 needs any help turning itself into a total clusterfuck anyway.

  24. Well we finally located a crew to do the Swimming Pool work that I have been going on about for over a year. Actually, the Mrs found the crew through our regular pool maintenance guy, who is quite good for the 3 x a week cleanups and minor repairs. We had talked to him about what we wanted to do, but he said that was not a job he could take on with his equipment and resources. He became aware of the crew that we have engaged and gave their number to the Mrs. We had the company owner/manager out to describe what we wanted to do. He came back with an offer for the work at 50,000 taking one week. Basically, we are not replacing the tile, but rather getting everything cleaned up and re-grouted. The main item is the cleanup of the tile on the reflection wall. If this works out well, I will post contact information for the crew that does this. One would need a Thai speaker to communicate with them. I have a live in translator. As far as effort goes I will give them an A+ so far. They showed up at 8 AM and worked straight through to about 4 PM. The owner/manager stopped in several times to see that things were going as they should. Hard work. Here is a pic for the beginning of Day 2. Day 1 was mostly getting the pool water emptied.

  27. I am already improving. This indicates to me that my issues were were related to poor air quality that built up in CM. I have escaped to HH, Patts, and BKK until rainy season comes back. Dog awful up there now. Horrible.

  30. I haven’t yet seen a BYD in the wild in the UK, but they’re here and more are coming. He’s right, Chinese EV’s are gonna sure shake up the EV market and that means trouble for the big legacy manufacturers across Europe.
