Scottish Guy vs Latinotop vs the rest of the world

MiniMee, the army does indeed issue insurance. All soldiers who leave the barracks between 7am and midnight are fully covered. I'm not sure about accidents which occur inside the barracks.

Insurance policies issued in Thailand's are among some of the world's most comprehensive - and the premiums are very competitive.

To get back on topic, I know that Scottish Guy has taken advantage of these policies on numerous occasions in Thailand. I'm not too sure about Latin, though. I doubt he would need any kind of insurance. I mean, he can only get injured if he falls off his computer chair.

Don't be ridiculous, we all know that Scottish Guy has never even BEEN in Thailand, hell he's told us so himself on numerous occasions now, you must have missed those posts, do keep up ! :-)

I can find no reference to any boat being parked. Apart from here.

Member a477 mentioned "barracks". I understand Barack (sp?) Obama will be out on the hustings again today. It's getting interesting.

Most threads need derailing after a while. Latinotop is a master derailleur.
No idea what derailleur means but spell check offered it as an option. Maybe francois knows?

A French word but common in English, a gear-shifting mechanism on a bicycle that shifts the chain from one gear wheel to another.

Wrong!

A 'derailleur" is someone whose job it is to rip up old railway lines. These are then recycled into all kinds of things, such as steel boatpens for parking speedboats.

Don't wish to intrude on the spat - but when I was a pretty young boy my bike had "Derailleur" gears which I suspect was a brand name in the UK originating from the French word.

And before anybody asks, NO the bike WASN'T a Penny-fucking-Farthing !!

It seems some people just won't be told ! Ok FINE, here, now you can consider your knowledge of how to park a speedboat as fully up to update ! Hell it even refers to pattaya AND shows a video for you .... some PEOPLE !!! - You can thank me later ....

Opps the edit timeout limit beat me above......so to finish your boat handling skills course Arsenal I can tell you that one moors a boat "on a mooring" ie a chain connected to something heavy thats dropped and placed out in the water, this could be perhaps maybe a few train wheels or a concrete base of some kind. One then docks a boat at a "dock' funnily enough and finally ( and as shown in the video above one parks their boat when its out of the water and so on it's trailer and usually on the hard concrete standing of perhaps your local yacht club or your own driveway etc.

See, now who said the derailing topics couldn't be both informative and yet totally needless and boring at the same time !
