wedders Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 (edited) He must be pretty well-known at least in Chiang Mai, cos he was mobbed outside the PM's place in Mae Rim by the red-shirts when he turned up there this afternoon...

(delete as appropriate) is the right answer. irrespective of who he is, he's clearly just had the best cheeseburger in chiang mai and lived to smile about it.

wedders Posted November 29, 2008 Author Share Posted November 29, 2008 Nah, George Formby has to be the winner - spitting image. Ok the Yanks here won't have a clue who he is, but for your edifification he's a kind of superior Louis Armstrong, equipped with a banjo instead of a trumpet. He looks nothing like Nobby Stiles. Charlie Williams, can't see it myself (apart from the teeth). And at least this isn't another best cheeseburger in CM thread ... what's the latest thread - where to get a cup of tea? !@#$%^&*......

cnxmike Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 What is this all about? Is this forum now getting involved into Thai politics ? I don't hope so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wedders Posted November 29, 2008 Author Share Posted November 29, 2008 (edited) Of course not Mike. Allow me to redirect this thread back in the direction of thrilling and vital issues such as where to obtain the best cheeseburger and cuppa in town, etc. Boooom This cheeseburger's not up to the one I had at Mike's last night... rat-tat-tat-tat-tat They never let the tea stew for long enough, do they.... And what's with the Thais and their firecrackers tonight? Crunch Bloody cheek, that tank's just run over my fries....

wedders Posted November 30, 2008 Author Share Posted November 30, 2008 I think it would have been simpler to ask the people that mobbed him. Presumably they knew who he was! I tried... but to my shame I couldn't understand the answer, so just nodded knowledgeably and carried on pretending to be the wise farang journalist. By the way, if anyone's on the breadline in Chiang Mai and doesn't know where the price of the next meal is coming from, the redshirted ladies out at Mae Rim will attempt to feed you delicious Thai food every ten minutes during your stay. At Government House last night, same again, plus a guesthouse owner who needed my help to get through the stock of Singha she'd brought along. Just get yourself a red t-shirt and come along ....

cmsally Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 This is getting kind of annoying as he does look kind of familiar.

Bill97 Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 He looks like the manager of the golf course there. His greeters are probably all wanting tee times which are hard to get at this time of year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
