Real life has provided a great cast (even if the British accents are so thick, it can be like watching a Ken Loach movie). With dear, lumbering Dad (seemingly boggled by his own wealth); strong-willed wife Sharon (Ozzy's manager); independent-minded daughter Kelly (with dyed-pink hair, like a girl-power answer to Ozzy's black-clad metal-god persona); and chip-off-the-old-block Jack (a likable oddball with a thing for bayonets), the Osbournes are like the Soprano family without the guns.

...steady stream of tour operators now convey travelers up the vertiginous road to Santikhiri?particularly from December until February when the cherry trees dot the slopes with their pink exuberance?but it wasn't always thus. As late as the mid-1970s, Doi Mae Salong was strictly off-limits to outsiders. Tuan and his men had struck an agreement with the Thai government that their presence would be tolerated, provided they helped fight the Thai communist insurgents in the region. The fiercest battle began in 1970 and lasted five years. Almost 1,000 kmt soldiers perished before they finally routed...
