cavanami Posted July 12, 2010 Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 Let me sneak one in here... What was the name of the pub on Soi 22 that served the large, great hamburger? Hint, it was near the Moonshine....and How many of the burgers would Wearth eat? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pom Michael Posted July 12, 2010 Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 Drogon's place - forgot the name now. Saw recently a place on Soi 20 advertising "Bangkok's Biggest Burger - eat it within 3 hours and it is free" - or something like that. Anyone know the name of the place or have tried it? Wearth - would eat all of them. Wouldn't they run out before he was finished? Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robaus Posted July 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 Yes, Oliver Stone is a frequent Pattaya visitor and enjoys his Latino/Mexican food.... but where? Should be Googlable now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flashermac Posted July 12, 2010 Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 Stone was a LRRP in RVN - Long Range Recon Patrol. They are usually barmy and sometime even homicidal. Ordinary grunts stayed away from them, since LRRPs were known to be unpredictable. I have a friend who was a LRRP and I've seen pics of the sawn-off shotgun he carried with him. I asked what it was for. He replied, "To finish off the wounded NVA who'd survived the ambush." Oh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eyebee Posted July 12, 2010 Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 1. Two people had hits with A Deck of Cards in the UK. Name them. Wink Martindale Max Bygraves (crikey - he's still alive and living in Queensland apparently) 2. Who chaired the UK quiz show, Ask the Family? Robert Robinson 3. Which of the Brontë sisters wrote the book, Agnes Gray? Anne 4. What does the word suffrage mean? right to vote 5. What was Dudley Moore and Peter Cook’s only UK hit single? "Goodbye-ee" Connection "Weakest Link" game show run by Anne Robinson, but I can't fit question 1 in unless it's a play on Wink at its max?? Correct - The Weakest Link. Anne Robinson always used to wink at the end of the show as if to say "I'm not really nasty, it's just me playing a part". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robaus Posted July 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 Ah now I remember ... the wink. Thx eyebee. You must know the Oliver Stone one too. FM, Didn't realise he'd been in the Vietnam War. But of course that would account for the realism of Platoon and Born on the Fourth of July. Just researching him now on wiki... v interesting. Maybe Vietnam is where he met his Pattaya dining mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On soi 20, past the sub-soi to 18, just past the exotic car showroom, across from the 7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not quite right on Wearth, there is a specific number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
