Re: The Recommended Movies Thread

Love Actually was an abomination IMO Ps slightly off topic as it's a series but have you seen State of Play? He's in it along with loads of other recognisable Brit actors and it's absolutely superb. The yanks made a movie out of it(Russell Crowe) and completely ballsed it up Sent from my 2412DPC0AG ...

Re: Soi 94 resurfacing work

Re: Soi 94 resurfacing work

Did you see photos posted by TM Cafe? Search their FB page

They say they can be accessed from the front tomorrow, all done!

Is the upper section (clubhouse bar travellers rest) still a mess?

Re: Soi 94 resurfacing work

I think the closure will start at the 7-11. In reality, the fact they are closing it to lay concrete over reinforced drains isn't going to stop Somchai, especially if riding a motorcycle. The Coca-Cola lorry always gets through. What or who the duck is "Somchai" ? Why go Thai obscure in t...

Re: Flights to/from Thailand status, news, and updates

Yes I almost posted that I was aware that those prices(Middle Eastern) are long gone..
