"unoffical" Thai Visa Piss Up

[Jockstar]

BTW when i eventually make it. The wife will probably be with me. So if anyone else is bringing their other half. They can chew the fat while we neck a few cold ones. BTW currently trying to work out best route to get there.

Looks like i will still be there. Probably flying to Singers then on to U Tapao. Overland to Bangkok for a few days and then hopfully taking the train up to CM.

[barryjohnson]

Would like to join. However, still stuck in Heathrow waiting for TG.

Oh, Tip's not coming? Too bad!

Why one can't go out and have fun without alcohol has always been a complete mystery to me.

Tip ALWAYS has fun without alcohol...she just chooses not to drink...I always do my best to make up for her lack of consumption

Being married to you TeePee, I'm sure the lovely Tip could always find something to laugh about.

Oops, I was a bit unclear in this. It wasn't adressed to Tip at all. Sorry about that, TP and Tip.

[Jockstar]

Lads. It now looks like the pissup will actually happen. I am currently leaving Oz tomorrow evening. Flying to Singapore. After that. Who knows? But i should at least make CM by Monday. See you all soon.

[kingwillly]

sounds good.

[Jockstar]

BTW my wife will be with me. Is anyone else bringing theirs?

[jackr]

Nope; nice to escape once in a while ole mate

[PeaceBlondie]

Speaking of burgers at Tuskers, I had my first one a few nights ago, and it was fine. A bit overcooked, so slightly rarer would be okay. I ain't no pickle expert, though. I may try the BBQ again. See y'all there.

Well said that man

[Blinky Bill]

Can't make it due to commitments in places far away.

Hope you bunch of gentlemen (and ladies?) have a drunken, debauched evening. With Peace Blondie and Thai Poorly at the helm there is surely no way that the night would be otherwise.

JS you really should leave the missus somewhere else mate.

Shame you can't make it, BB... was looking forward to talking a load of <deleted> under the influence, not that I can't do that myself of course

This is true. See you allon Thursday.

Among the great excitement generated by the water issue this far more mundane beer consumption issue was languishing a couple of pages down.

Come and debate the water issue in person this Thursday at a very unofficial TV piss up/ welcome back party/Christmas pub crawl. We could even do a survey of all the establishments giving free water on our crawl. Hard data that's what we need in order to make sense of this the burning issue of our time.

[Ulysses G.]

Do you or don't you?

[miltonbentley]

I think it has arisen twice at Tuskers in 3 years - once to take medication and once to alleviate the unfortunate consequences of over indulgence in tequila. On both occasion I was happy to give the person concerned a drink.

Contrary to the impression given by the thousands of words written on this subject this week Chiang Mai does not seem to be bursting at the seams by people wanting free drinking water.

[StevieH]

i'm somewhat concerned by the predilection of chiang mai residents for drinking water when in bars / restaurants. i thought that the denizens of chiang mai were able to consume beer and internally extract the water therefrom, chemically, thus negating the need for supplementary fluid replacement. at least that's the way my own physiology has changed since being here.

[jackr]

Well done on the boing, Mr B; it's all getting rather tedious... the how to plug one's pub thread. Perhaps we should do a Suwanapoom special and storm it on Thursday demanding free water, not

[ThaiPauly]

I am only interested in the process that turns water into BEER

But you are correct..that thread has gone on way past its sell by date...I try to keep pointing out the FACTS about the differences...but the "Cheap Charlies" won't let it go

I am not expecting the "Cheif Cheap Charlie" to attend on Thursday...and its not Mr Hunt that I am reffering to

I refuse to attend any Thai Visa event that does not include Blinky Bill and I am no Cheap Charlie . I'm just not stupid enough to pay for water when I can just go somewhere that offers it to their customers for free. I don't pay for air either.

. . . . . I don't pay for air either.

I do -- but only when diving.

Alas, no. I fear that for me it will never be more than an aspiration.

[Jockstar]

See you all tomorrow.

[tigerbeer]

i am afraid i would not be able to make it guys. apologies esp to TP

[DavidOxon]

I'll come for a bit as long as 'er indoors' doesn't mind....

[Jockstar]
