NAHM Restaurant in Bangkok's very glam Metropolitan Hotel is a surprise for any visiting food and wine lover. The quality of the food isn't unexpected: for almost two decades Nahm chef David Thompson has been regarded as one of the most extraordinary exponents of classic Thai cooking on the planet. No, the surprise at Nahm is reserved instead for the wine list.

Not only is the list stuffed with a really interesting ...

Sitting down slurping my coffee and reading the Australian online this morning when I came across a headline that put a BIG smile on my dial.

Ireland beat England by 3 wickets in ICC Cricket World Cup match. I didn't know Ireland had a Cricket team. lol

           
           There are 3 groups of people in the world today
 
1. Envorimentalists

2. Money Makers

3. "What Ever" Group

If anyone has any knowledgee of such a place could they notify me here, please

The next reason Electric cars wont work. Imagine having to wait 8 hours to refuel your car. Or on a hot day ...

SKYDIVING is dangerous - but not nearly as dangerous as skydiving from a plane in outer space.
That can kill you. The temperature can freeze your body, and the lack of air pressure can boil your blood.
Nonetheless, an Austrian daredevil named Felix Baumgartner ...

 The Australian Govt claims it has had a request from the Thailand Tourist Dept, requesting a warning be issued to Australian tourists considering travelling to Thailand later this month.Now this seems like good advise to me. It makes sense as the Thai Govt thinks there may be some trouble when the verdict on a certain well loved member of the "Elite" now living in a neighbouring country is read out at the end of the month. So you can imagine I was some what surprised to see ...
