Xmas is coming up and many expats are going home for the holidays.

What is the part of your trip home??

For me it is of course seeing family members and friends..

And even though its very expensive, still pay a visit to my old local beer pusher.

And its even nice so have some cold weather for a change.

Buying some real music....( I am a bit tired of moram )

All of the above are allright for a week or two. But the best thing about going home, is when you are leaving your home again, to go to your other home here in los.......

what do you like about going "home"???

the monkey

Going back to NZ on Wednesday..... it's going to be long day starting with a 3 hour bus trip to Khon Kean, flight to BBK and then a 14 hour flight home, I just hope to God that I'm not sitting next to a feminazi...... that happened last time...... what a condescending bit*h..... one of those volunteer types out to save a bar girls world.

Ok..... what is the best part of going home.....

Seeing the Family

Steinlarger and Lion Red

English speaking TV programs.

Decent soaps like coronation street.... Gee! I can't believe I said that

One day cricket match

Mum's cooking

Not having to do Christmas shopping..... done it already..... luggage full of fake adidas clothing, PS2 and DVD's

And the best part.......... getting a decent nights sleep and not being woken by howling soi dogs, aunty's screeching voice and the village mayor on the loud speaker at 6.00am every morning

If your on that 5.30pm Thai airways flight tomorrow say hello to the guy wearing a black and white shirt, carrying a black shoulder bag....... it could be me

I have to go "home" quite a bit on business and I take my (Thai) wife. She's telling me that she doesn't want to go next year. Actually, nor do I.

Have pity on us kiwi cricket supporters...... the wins are few and far between....

When was the last test win in Aussie for the Kiwi's ????...... not in your life time son

now that's how you play footy Mr Frenchman

Oh and thanks for the first couple of replies to my postings....... it took until number 27...... do I scare people??

Group reply.....nah, ya just plain boring

Coming through passport control and customs with no problems, finding all my baggage and a trolley first time, getting into the taxi and opening a window and smelling the unique smell that I love so much.

Thailand.

I am home, anywhere else is foreign to me.

Seeing the family

Seeing my father smile whilst playing with 'Lil Burrito

A long Sunday afternoon or two watching football with the gang, rather than the roosters.

Stuffing burritos, enchiladas and all the Mexican grub down I can handle

Seeing my wife enjoy the change of weather from hot to at least cool if not downright cold.

Friends

For me it was always the chance to take stock of things, and get a reality check especially after long periods in Thailand.

Looking forward to sunday dinners, fry ups and sleeping under a duvet again, back in six weeks have a happy xmas. Remember peace and goodwill to all men.

yeah...... having my send off party now....... 30 people have tied string around my wrists...... really neat

but how do I tell them I want them out of the the house in 10 minutes because I wanna say goodbye to the wife..... perhaps I should just hold up the red and black negligee and matching g string that I have brought for the ocasion

see you lot in the new year...... have a good one

Have a nice trip home James.

Just have a copy of 'Asia Babes' open on the plane seat next to you. That should be enough to deter any militant lesbians..............

Have a nice trip home you guys....

Oy!
