  1. Years ago I was at a mates in seaham in county durham,the people over the road had moved out earlier that day,some lads were busy gutting the house of boiler and copper pipes.
  2. Angkor is easily the best temple complex I have visited,try to do a sunrise trip as well,and if your flush do the Angkor hot air balloon flight,i did a great one last week in chiang mai.Are you flying to siem or doing the poipet border crossing?
  3. Been to Cambodia quite a few times mate,you going siem reap way?Done a bit of fishing,got just over a week left then back to spain.
  4. Theres a guy comes on this forum now and again breeds them,i think he also had a macaw?
  5. I haven't a clue neil,the thai guy I was with had limited English and my thai is nit-noi ,I saw 2 black gibbons but the pics are crap as they were right up in the canopy.
  6. looks a totally different landscape from leafy surrey,how does everyday cost of living compare?
  7. I was just to the south of mae hong son with a local guy looking for gibbons in the wild,i saw 2 but in the space of an afternoon I also saw 5 different colour variations of squirrel,albino,black,brown,greyish and the only one I managed a pic of this ginger/golden type.

  9. Psychics are just amateur psychologists, its cold-reading,inferences based on generalities and persuasive psychological manipulation,doris stokes said she would return and tell everyone what the other side was like..................she never did.
  10. Charlotte is probably Chris cross-dressing,throws people off the scent that he bats for the other side,Terry Nutkins would turn in his grave if he saw how Packham had turned out.
  11. You have some great pics in your album, like the stag pics from bushy parkland thats a great pic of the beast of bushy and the lady.
  12. Yup,guy filming looked like a typical rude boy Pakistani.
  13. Obviously if you set it correctly. I watched about 10 mins of a programme a few weeks ago called. Monster hunters. About 6 red necks in the dark looking for big foot or some other monster. I've never seen so much shit in all my life lol. The Bigfoot ones are pure hokum, i watched one a few weeks back, they organized a meeting in the town hall of some Hicksville community, dozens of people turned up, all had some sort of Sasquatch encounter tale, several said they had been out deer hunting when they spotted the creature, it was a farming community, one woman said it was spying on her
  14. Theres a number of factors why the UK doesn't have such a high infant mortality rate as lets say parts of Africa or Asia,one of those is we vaccinate infants, maybe veggie-mum believes in natural selection.
  15. Two places to go if you really want to see true patriotism,Southall broadway during eid every car driving slowly sounding their horns and displaying the Pakistani flag, and Main Street on Gib on Gibraltar day, everyone dressed in red and white with union jacks flying everywhere.
  16. http://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/uknews/police-escort-passengers-off-easyjet-plane-after-heated-row-over-gibraltar/ar-BBznb5J?li=BBoPWjQ Yup,Gibraltarians just don't want to be Spanish
  17. You have too much cash TOMO I remember sleeping in some scrubland on the outskirts of Perpignan one night, then on the beach at canes plage the next when I was a teenager and hitching down through France
  18. The head teacher looks like something out of mad max, but kids need more than just the 3 R's to develop, they need real world skills, and outside interests other than sitting glued to their I-phones 24/7 I had a hot air balloon flight at dawn this morning and had the chance to chat to a Thai woman who learnt to fly at the age of 14.Get the kids out, dirt under their fingernails, fresh air in their lungs, birdsong in their ears instead of f***ing headphones pumping out crap.
  19. Domino effect........
  20. Worked on Gib a few times,gibraltarians are staunch pro-uk,they don't want to be called Spanish,they actually view it as an insult, but they were pro-europeans,i think it was 98% wanted to remain because 4000+ Spanish cross from la linea every morning to work on the rock, theres a statue on the Spanish side dedicated to the spaniard gib workers, if Spain wants the rock back perhaps first they should hand Ceuta back to the moroccans?Just as a token good faith gesture
  21. No mate,snakeheads in the rivers but the alligator gar here are lake fish,not like the monster gar in the states,
  22. I always follow this boys story in the online Sunderland echo, always smiling despite his suffering, fantastic little characters hope his new treatment trials have positive results.
  23. That program was on TV again last night game-fowl fighting and buffalo fights.Stonewall visit a decent sized sarong farm sometimes think you would enjoy it, i visited one years back, stayed there fora few days, the guy had maybe 3000 birds, incredible sound in the mornings, almost like music.
  24. They are about to start taking tourists down, quite an exclusive club to join as its a bit pricey.
