European Club Football

For want of a better title I cam up with this. We don't have a specific topic to cover all the other leagues and cups in Europe and sometimes there's a few good things to report like Barcelona getting hammered or AC Milan losing at home to a bottom of the table club and of course the SPL. Anyway thi...

More or less the same here all day except more sun. 5 - 10 % coverage all day and very cool. Jacket weather.

Was told me that Husband & Wife cannot own shares in the same company. So is this true or not? No, not true but there are percentage restrictions. My understanding is that a farang cannot own 49% and his wife 51% there must be 5 other shareholders that own a minimum percentage each. I think it ...

Luckily I have 300 metres of coconut plantation between me and the sea. I checked out the site but was unable to determine the speed of movement. It certainly looked like Rayong will get hit a little bit. The earlier projection placed it right through Rayong town. Maybe our Rayong Representative can...

Guess really mate give GOM a go... I downloaded it yesterday and will try it later. One thing I have found is that you really need a different player for music than video despite the fact that it's usually both MP3. I am more than happy with VLC for movies but Avast keeps telling me my copy of Wina...

Well I hope you enjoyed the trip. Yes very much. I did the journey quite a few years ago but on a completely different route. I had to get back to Petchaburi so I didn't need to go through Bangkok. Also, I was told that Highway 1 was a pain with many long boring bits so I went up via Uttaradit very...

I understand the cheapest way from Thailand to UK (mobile or land line) is with a Thai mobile and using 009 or 008 then (44) instead of the 00 or +. Anyone one else know a cheaper way ? SMS do not work with 008, 009 for me. I'm sure skype is cheaper but I don't understand it and never used it. Chee...

The way Plymouth play, they are more likely to get results at the 2 Sheffield matches, and then blow the home match with Charlton. You weren't far out. Only a 94th minute penalty saved humiliation at home against the Addicks. One good win up north anyway. Almost right :D The 94th minute penalty was...

It's always these last few minute goals that screw me. I had Manure to win 3 -0 and that's what it was until the last five minutes.

I also have Chelsea to win 3 - 0. OK at half time, I can't see the scoreline lasting though.

Anyway two scores spot on so far and my BB intact so I can't complain.
