I keep the pic on my laptop and drool every once in a while....but I'm willing to undertake a special fact finding mission with you.

Mind...you will be expected to fast for three days beforehand! Such missions are not to be undertaken lightly.... Posted Image

Lady walked into the above chippie and ordered a very large portion of Cod (nice and fluffy) with chips.

The owner replied " Sorry madam, but we have no Cod today"

Lady "It is my birthday today and I would like to have one please." Posted Image

Owner "Lady please take the P out of Placie and what do you have"?

Lady "oh, well Lace"

Owner "now take the S out of Skate and what do you have"?

Lady " ahh, Kate"

Owner "Correct and now take the F out of Cod and waht do you get"

Lady " ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh there is no F in Cod"

Owner "Told you so"

TV Cricket - Run For It!

Indeed, that is very helpful; she really is a breath of fresh air

We should try to find an appropriate role for her within the team

The popularity of sports depends on where you are.

I think young kids play cricket in some posh international school in Thailand. Thai people know and play tra-kraw which I think is popular only in southeast asia. It is taught in every school and I also learned and played it, hahaha.

Good one. Wales Needs Tra-Kraw!

Hey ... changing the subject a little ... where is Kevjohn?

I sort of miss him diligently scrawling away over a hot desk and a coffee, while I'm kicking back with a beer.

He bowled an honest over.

He hasn't joined JT and gone to play that 'other' game, has he?

I'd sort of be a little dissapointed if he was all of a sudden batting for the other side.

Baseball

is just not Cricket

In computer networking, IP over Avian Carriers (IPoAC) is a proposal to carry Internet Protocol (IP) traffic by birds such as homing pigeons. IP over Avian Carriers was initially described in RFC 1149, a Request for Comments (RFC) issued by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) written by D. Waitzman and released on 1 April 1990. It is one of several April Fools' Day RFCs.
Waitzman described an improvement of his protocol in RFC 2549, IP over Avian Carriers with Quality of Service (1 April 1999). Later, in RFC 6214 released on 1 April 2011, and 13 years after the introduction of IPv6, Carpenter and Hinden published Adaptation of RFC 1149 for IPv6.^[1]

How did TV help me? Well, it came into my life about 30 years to late to help me much with Thailand but it has made me laugh, sometimes with and sometimes at. TV is an entertainment venue for me. Posted Image

2 serious questions:

1. Do you have 2 signatures or are you re-pasting (maybe even re-typing) your Fish Farms comment each time you post?

2. Why don't you left align the Fish Farms comment?

David48 might be gearing up for some heavy investment in the Fish Farming and Visa Agent areas of business expertise.

We have the Bargirls sponsors as potential sponsors, so why not 'David's Fish Farm' as a sponsor?

I'm sure he can supply some tasty specimens for lunch time BBQing...Shouldn't cost him too much to feed the troops...always a few dead fish floating on top of the pond..

I'll tell you a secret here that I prefer not to put on the Farming Forum ...

Yes, they do get some that die.

Mostly, almost always, it's because they have run out of oxygen, hence they are still 'clean' fish and the oxygen level drops to it's lowest just before sunrise and the ponds are inspected not long after first light.
Hence the fish are 'recently collected, much the same as the time taken from cacthing the fish and they are taken to the market.

Mostly they get salted and placed in the glass jars and sold at the market ... the Issan people apparently love this taste of preserved salty fish.

As for me ... personally I'd be going for the Prawns.

I'm a bit nervous about the cheerleaders' bus smelling of fish...

TV Cricket - the Team with Two Knees

Quite a valid point ... but remember, these are Prawns

... not Tuna ...

#5335787 Why Do Hot Farangs Dislike It Here?

Berkshire, on 2012-05-27 10:05:36, said:

I'm not sure why you think other people's input would be more valid than the women themselves. But since you're asking, let me opine a bit. The topic is rather unique.

I don't think it's overly complicated. For example, there aren't many hot, young, and wealthy farang MALES in Thailand. These attractive and successful farang males and females (just being an attractive female is enough) can live most anywhere. Why would they want to live in Thailand...or Asia, for that matter? To be an outsider, not familiar with the culture or the language, not having a support network....being at a DISADVANTAGE. As opposed to being in farangland, where all is familiar, where they can be celebrated, and clearly enjoy the advantages of their standing in society. Pretty clear, I think.

Aside from Bangkok being a generally pretty steamy hot and horrible (imo) place to hang out, and the OP's obvious superficiality...i guess some possibilities might be..

If you are not a loner, and enjoy the company of others, then LOS may be a difficult place for some people.
If you are intelligent farang (man or woman), then truthfully, finding intelligent articulate like-minded people is not easy.
If you are attractive woman, then finding attractive interesting respectable (ie: without major hang-ups) company is also not so easy (in general).
Many guys here have ginormous chips on their shoulders regarding western woman..a known fact. Some would even take pleasure in playing disgusted at an attractive western woman, even if shes 100 times out of his league, purely for some lame sense of satisfactions.
Many farang guys here are not what you would call "eye candy". Even if attached, its still pleasant to be around attractive opposite sexes.
Fact is that Thailand attracts quite a lot of men that arent real catches in the west (not saying ALL ok! Just that it does..be honest!).
Even on the Thai front, there isnt a lot of real deep conversations around...(in general! ..before i get slammed).
If you are are an attractive woman, with some level of intelligence its better if you prefer a more loner life-style. For, if you looking for attractive, like-minded company, particularly male, you are pretty much buggered.

As in:

Like a Hole in the Head!

Maybe an extension here ... or a new complete thread ...

I'm getting very tired of people who keep coming into positive threads to moan and whine, or take pot shots at others. If you want to be miserable, log off and be miserable by yourself, and let those who want to enjoy their time here do so.

Isn't it so that a forum is intended to share opinions?If every one was of the same opinion you would have much more reason to get tired.
