Blinky Bill Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 Being the nice guy I am I have decided to invite all my wonderful friends in Chiang Mai to join me for a bit of an impromptu piss-up on Wednesday the 26th, or Boxing Day as it is known to us members of the commonwealth. Yes thats you Crow Boy and McSpicy, I'll even extend the invite to Oz-Tired, Tie Poor Lee, Razzaroo, Maejo Man, You-lissies Gee and Thai-Gabeer. They're about the only TV contibutors that show any sort of attraction to me on the odd occasion. Oh bugger, Slapout, you're welcome too mate even though you are from Oaklahoma. Actually anyone is welcome as long as they aren't what the topic description descibes. The location: Where else..........Tossers. Oops make that Tuskers at any time after 7.30 pm And I'll put the first 3,000 baht on the bar. PS......No need to register either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JuniorExPat Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 What a charming invitation BB, it does however, leave many with quite a dilemma: "Do I assume that I am important (or unimportant) enough to attend? Do I turn up and risk the embarrassment of finding out that I am in fact a '<deleted>' in spite of what my dear mother tells me? Will BB actually allow the B3,000 to move from being on the bar to being converted into beer on its way to the cash till? Will the beer be cold enough to keep BB's attention?" Hope you have a great Christmas BB (Mrs JxP sends her best too), I'll probably be busy fixing broken toys by the time Boxing Day evening comes around so I won't have to wrestle with the questions above!

cm-happy Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 OK, I'll ask, at the risKt of being flammed but; WhaT is BOXING DAY? HOW IS IT DIFFERENT FROM CHRISTMAS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JuniorExPat Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 OK, I'll ask, at the risKt of being flammed but;WhaT is BOXING DAY? HOW IS IT DIFFERENT FROM CHRISTMAS? At the risk of being facetious - it's the day after Christmas day, the 26th of December so therefore a totally different day. It is traditionally the day when we pack away all the boxes used during Christmas for the presents, food, decorations etc. Wikipedia on Boxing Day.

JxP Strange...in my family Boxing Day was the day the "grown-ups" opened their "Christmas Boxes" the children,with no patience had theirs on Christmnas Day....with the stockings raided about 1 am!! and we certainly didnt pack away the decorations...that had to wait until 12th night Edited December 22, 2007 by gennisis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loaded Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 I like the way Blinky Bill doesn't take posts personally or too seriously. I've disagreed with him a couple of times on various posts but he doesn't bear a grudge and usually comes back with a light-hearted joke. Have a good drink.

Boxing Day is simply the day set aside for tidying up and putting away all those d@mned boxes that everything came in. JxP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've spent many lonely nights whimpering naked under the bed or in a dark corner whenever someone takes me too seriously. You better bluddy well turn up so as I can buy you a beer.

Blinky Bill Posted December 22, 2007 Author Share Posted December 22, 2007 Kreteks will be available at no extra cost. The 3,000 baht (might make it an even US$100) on the bar is for booze only. All Moderators are welcome as well so long as they are off duty on the evening. And even that evil little bastard Boksida and his gorgeous wife the Commodore are more than welcome if they can spare the time prior to setting sail across the mighty seas of Lampang.

BigMac Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 Could the Boxing Day Bash be a repeat of the Xmas Eve Bashing in 1985 at the Karen Hut where sweet Libbers copped a hiding from a much younger BB? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tigerbeer Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 BB, thanks for the party. was there only a short time but glad to meet some of the TV members that i have not met for a while. Wish i stayed longer to taste some of the cheese Chas brought out so kindly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crow Boy Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 Blinky mate, is always good to see you and it was a good night last night. Good friends, a couple of drinks and time to catch up. Chas brought out the supper and then the cheese plates. Between McG and I we demolished the first one but I did notice he suddenly departed to "catch up with the guys over there" who just happened to have a cheese platter placed in front of them. I managed to drag the girl to the party and she had a good time too. Was a pity that a couple of the guys couldn't attend because of family commitments but those that did enjoyed it. Have fun and take care. Catch up next time you are in town. CB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nienke Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 It was really nice to meet and talk to Blinky. He turned out not too bad after all Also nice to see some 'old' faces and new ones such as Rasseru, Mestizo, KevinHunt, Barry, Boksida and his lovely wife, she looks great! And what a gorgeous little girl you have, Tigerbeer! And again a BIG THANKS to the hosts, Chas and Rachel, for the delicious cheeses and ham sandwiches.
