Re: New Central Plaza

I wonder how long before this project is complete. Central took over over 1 year ago.Since then the only noticeable changes are more security guards in the complex and the buffet at the Charoensri Grand going up to 285 baht ! At this rate of progress I would estimate the finishing time similar to th...

Re: supporting thai wife

Some of the amounts mentioned are crazy.Perhaps alright if the money is for all the food shopping and bills for electric,water,internet etc.but if its just for the lady to pamper herself....too much imo ! For those that like to show off their lady they should bear in mind you can get a different lad...

Re: phuket or hua hin

Went to Phuket a month or two back.Its very scenic but some places are very expensive.
I dont think I would choose Patong again but Kata and Nai Haan,on the southern tip of the island,are fine with nice beaches and reasonable nightlife,particularily in Kata.

Re: English Premier League 2008-09

Things not looking good for the Toon now.Some difficult fixtures coming up.Still lots of injuries and some of the players just not good enough.Also I dont think Hughton is up to the job at this level.Not his fault,just unfortunate that Kinnear got taken ill when we were in a reasonable position. Pot...

Re: English Premier League 2008-09

Geordie, The Toon have signed Kevin Nolan from Bolton for 4.5m.Quite a good signing I think.Under Allardyce at Bolton he was excellent and in the England set up but seems to have faded a bit under Megson. Big match at home to Sunderland tomorrow.A biting North Easterly wind with temperatures struggl...

Re: Christmas @ Good Everything

This Good Everything overlooks the big park in Udon,right ?? I went there last night with my girlfriend and had the Xmas dinner. Soup was very tasty and the turkey moist and a large glass of wine for free. Bill overall was around 2000 baht with extra beers.I think a little pricey for here but in the...

Re: Baht What up with Dat?????

Last time I was over here was March 2007 and I think it was around 72 then. Xmas Eve at the Kasikorn in the mall the rate was something like 49.66. Thats a 30% decrease.Makes a big change to the budget.Stay at cheaper hotels and drink one or two less beers a day.Must be very difficult for some of yo...
