Having the same issues in Thailand as we do here in China then????? I've used a couple of these in the past, but even these are now blocked by the Great Firewall of China.... I now pay for a UK based VPN which allows me to access iPlayer, S4C etc... and at a fairly reasonable rate. FYI, some sites o...

Cr@p! The Blues and the Brumbies have seriously let me down.... but what can you expect from the lower hemisphere.... at least I guess the Brumbies actually won. My big concern... at least for this round is that a certain barsteward Randy has made opposite predictions to me....... and happens to top...

I've literally just had a unit installed through the help of a friend/next door neighbour. He'd priced a few units up and Home Pro was offering some deals (at least to the end of the month). Nowhere near the size you're looking, but a 10,000 BTU Samsung unit was on offer at 15,400 Baht, fitted, with...

The trouble with the above is that J Thomas has bulked up so much that he is now seen as a second row, where he starts for the Ospreys, and it is questionable whether he would have the desired impact at 6 over 80 minutes. Hence his 'impact' cameo at 6 for Wales against England and his selection aga...

I'm amazed that Cooper has been selected in the 15 - matchday 22 OK as cover, but 15???! He has not been performing, where Richie Rees has... and did in the final quarter on Saturday. Good to see Halfpenny coming in to the starting lineup - adds the option of the long range penalties which quite hon...

Could also do major embassy phone numbers but, again, couldn't do everyone, just the ones with high visitor numbers. Possibly could do average transport costs to and from BBK to HH, train/bus/taxi etc but would have to stress that they were merely "guildlines". :cheers: Not seen this on t...

Thanks for the info guys - all in all, your looking at the 600 quid mark for a direct flight. Cheaper end with Jet and a stop in India, but some real horror stories in some of the reviews!! Found an Emerates flight at just over 500, so if he can be persuded for a non-direct flight, looks like that's...
