Re: Homeward Bound?

Not sure whether I was just lucky or if this is an accepted procedure. When I went back to the UK, my sister recommended me to her bank manager at Lloyds. She made the appointment. I turned up. No ID that I can remember. 30 mins later, I had a bank account, ATM card and two credit cards. Even an ov...

Re: Australian cricketer dies from injuries

I know as much about the game of cricket as I know about golf, so please ignore if inappropriate. Years ago, a group of us use to spend our lunchtimes with an old cricket bat and ball. We used to have a lot of fun. Then a colleague who was a semi-pro fast bowler asked to join in. I received 2 balls...

Re: Caption Competition

Thank you to everyone who entered. I had a fun time judging that. Very hard decision to make as the quality of entries was very high.

Re: Australian cricketer dies from injuries

The other part of this is the man who pitched the ball, a Sean Abbott. He must be completely devastated. Who can't feel badly for him. My thoughts exactly. I'd read a few days ago that counselling had been offered to all players involved in the match. Can't see any amount of counselling helping Sea...

Re: Hua Hin Floating Market

My Personal opinion is that Cicada is the worst of them all. OK, a decent food court, but designed for tourists - it is not really an authentic Thai market. So here's the Bader-Meinhoff working well. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baader-Meinhof_phenomenon I heard about this place last week for the f...

A "Race To 10" Private Board

How about we have a private board for members over 300 posts (say?) to point out new members who are obviously "racing to 10" I don't know about you, but I quite enjoy the banal, random comments that they post on d topics so that they can get to the night crawlers forum. Yes, yes, I did it...

Re: New laptop

Buy something in the £500 price range; HP, Dell or Samsung. Get someone who knows a little bit to take the "bloatware" off. These are the programmes that come pre-installed and just take u room whilst adding nothing. If you're not gaming, £500 will buy you something top end for what you ne...
