Rasseru Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 (edited) Yessir, the one and only Guillaume le Clignotant. Unlike Guillaume le Conquérant, who came and saw and . . . yes, conquered, this is the one who came and saw and . . . blinked. Still, we love him. Or pretend we do, as long he's the big man picking up the tab and all. But I digress! To help us celebrate and revel in the return of Mr Blinky Bill to our shores, for however brief a time, he has condescended to appear before and with, and consume vast quantities of alcoholic beverages with, any who wish to reciprocate at a local establishment known and loved by most of us, namely, Tuskers, on the evening of Friday, July the 17th. No formal word on the start time just yet, but I suggest that any who wish to join be thinking about gathering at 7-ish. This may change as the date approaches. Oh, and no need whatsoever to pretend to love the man this time, as he will not be playing the big man and will not be picking up the tab. I read with awe his request to me to explain to all that 'dickheads may attend' -- the sheer brazen effrontery and presumption take one's breath away, do they not? I mean, as if! Who else would dream of showing up, after all? I'll be there, naturally, and I join Guillaume in looking forward to your company.

MonsieurHulot Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 Unlike Guillaume le Conquérant, who came and saw and . . . yes, conquered, Actually it's Caesar who came, saw and conquered. William, a womaniser, saw, conquered and eventually came. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be great if he made Chiang Mai his main base once again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rasseru Posted July 13, 2009 Author Share Posted July 13, 2009 Bad news. The gathering at Tuskers this Friday is cancelled. Blinky can't make it. He says it has nothing to do with his having found, as recently reported on another topic, the pussy he had been so desperately seeking, but you may wish to draw your own conclusions.

Is WHAT legal, catching and keeping a limit of 4 salmon per day? We are allowed a possesion limit of a two days catch when traveling home by vehicle. The fishing is strictly regulated except for the First Nations people who can do anything they want... and do. Smoking, canning and freezing a legal limit of salmon allows me to release the remainder of all other fish I catch, and still have enough fish to eat for the remainder of the year.
