GuestHouse Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 I'm in Lincoln for the day, the first time I've set foot in the place for over a decade. I walked into a cafe, ordered a coffee, turned around to look for somewhere to sit and there right in front of me is a Thai girl I dated in Pattaya 7 years ago. Five minutes talking with her reminded me exactly why I got rid of her, so her new boyfriend had no need to be so agitated. hel_l, its not as if I planned to see her again. Anyway, what a small world. I'm going for a pint of Bateman's to get over the shock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JetsetBkk Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 So how much was the coffee compared to 10 years ago? (Just getting ready for the shock for when I have to go back). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khun ? Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 Cost, who cares as long as it is not that nasty Nestle's instant crap that 99% of th places serve in Thailand. They even make it brewed as normal grind coffee. This is almost as bad as eating rice every day and served with Somolian chickens, alot of bone and little meat.

Kerryd Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 I was staying at a small hotel in Amsterdam back in Nov '84, while on holidays from Germany where I was posted. Having a drink in the bar/lounge/check-in area when this girl comes in with a Canadian flag on her backpack. Buddy next to me (an American Marine also on holidays) nudges me and says "One of yours", referring to the fact I was (am) Canadian as well. I sauntered up to the check-in counter/bar to get another drink, and sneak a peek at her registration card. Lo and behold, she came from a small town in BC that I'd gone to school in back in '75. I looked at her and said "Your from Xxxxxxxx ??" She looked at me and said "I know you". I told her I didn't think so (after all, I had only been in the school for about 6 weeks before events dictated that I be relocated). Turns out she did remember me, and could remember most of the other people that had been in my class (and some other details best forgotten about). Would have never expected to be remembered in that town all, let alone be recognized 9 years later on a different continent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GracelessFawn Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 I was hanging-out with my bf and friends at the Bus Stop a few weeks ago, and had quiet a shock when I took a closer look at the people on the next table. My xbf's bestfriend was there with his gf. It was such a shock to me coz I left the friendship circle after the split 3 years ago and we used to be buddies for 2 years before the split (they were the group I hang-out with). I went to the loo to compose myself. Bumped into my xbf's bestfriend on my way out of the loo, so I was forced to say something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hehhehehhee. Keep in mind that they used to be my inner circle (for 2 years) 3 years ago and we were all tight. We hang-out during week days after work then storm the city on week-ends. I dropped all of them like a hot potato after the split. I guess, that was me feeling a little guilty and a little uncomfortable as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lotus eater Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 Lincoln? Where's that, which continent, country?

Dr. Burrito Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 I'm sitting here are our business in Bangkok this week at a 'pre-meeting' to a meeting with some rich guy's advisors, an older lady and a younger lady, for business affairs. We talk for an hour about business, everything seemed lovely and the next meeting was set. Business over, I ask the girl how long she had lived in Los Angeles to which she said a few years. I asked her if she had ever been to a popular set of Thai restaurants and she said yes and asked who I knew. She knew some of the same people. Not that big a deal really, but then she asks if I know the manager, whom I have known for about 15 years. Turns out, she was his daughter. The world and for sure Bangkok, is getting smaller everyday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tijnebijn Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 yeah it is a strange phenomenon . Many times I noticed when you think about someone , or just slipped your mind that after a while you see or meet this person after so many years . Indeed sometimes comfortable and sometimes not .
