    Baan Thai is awesome. I live right beside the Leopardstown one, takeaway only takes 15 minutes to be ready so I use it a lot.

    Best Thai take ways for me are Kanum (the beef massaman, oh lawdy), Diep (the penang curry!) and Kanoodle (I'm biased!)

    If God orders take aways (and I like to think he does) I assume he orders the red curry with duck from Kanoodle.

    Massaman is awesome. Though Green Curry is the best.

    What was the name of the kids tv station that preceded Nickelodeon here? It used to show earthworm Jim. Trying to think and it's driving me nuts.

    TCC formerly known as The Children's Channel? Went bust in the 90s and a section of it became Trouble.

    It would have been the first station to give us things like Saved By The Bell.

    I won an illuminous yellow sock on TCC years ago. The show where they turned a card and if it was the one you picked, you won the prize below the card. The second last prize was always the good one, and the last was the sock. I thought I had the good prize but alas, ended up with the sock. They posted it out to me and all :pac:

    I thought Trouble started while TCC was still going. I distinctly remember being heartbroken as all the best shows went to Trouble and all we were left with was endless repeats of Gigantor.

    They did. The older children got Trouble and TCC remained for younger kids but went bang very shortly after. From checking their Wiki, Trouble then kept going for a decade and was then absorbed by Living 2.

    Look at Paul O'Connell in this picture and tell me if his jersey is red and blue or green and gold.

    Got that the other year there, I gave up work in September and thought nothing else of it, didn't cop on for about a year that I paid all this tax at the higher rate that would have balanced out to the lower rate if you took my pay up to the end of August and stretched it out over the year.

    The refund was very much appreciated.

    Well if I was from Zimbabwe I'd be rather miffed.

    What odds on a nice dose of Waikato rain for Hamilton for the India match?

    I think it's nearly impossible to be sure either way. I'd like to think Mooney is honest so I'll say it is.
    Whole game hinged on that one incident, great entertainment.

    The worry is the bowling just isn't strong enough.

    Makes no difference really, our run rate isn't good enough to jump Pakistan and the West Indies really so the Pakistan game will be winner takes all regardless of the India game.

    But West Indies only on 4 points. Ourselves and Pakistan on 6.
    West Indies have one game vs UAE- a win will bring them to 6.
    If our game called off due to rain we will get a point, bringing us to 7.
    West Indies won't be able catch us- so run rate not important.
