Unofficial Thai Visa Pissup - 18 Oct 2009

[britmaveric]

Well I'm getting an early start, so I'll see everyone at the Cross Bar in a few hrs. I must admit I am looking forward to meeting up with everyone.

[Geekfreaklover]

I'll be there about 6ish, just polishing my drinking boots.

[BIGTOE3]

I am just getting myself together - putting my BestToe in its place at present etc so hope to be there about 6 ish.

[Deke]

It's almost 7:30 and I'm still in my office. It looks like work intervenes again.

I hope you all have a good time.

Great night. Good to meet new faces, ended up soi cowboy (as if we wouldn't go there ) last thing i remember was sitting in a soi bar listening to geekfreaklover

singing and playing guitar. don't know where the guitar came from, pretty sure he didnt bring it with him, I think..

Sounds like I missed a good night. But I am sure I feel better today than all of you.

Failed to make yet another TV get together! My humble apologies for not getting there to meet you all, my plus 1 had other ideas when the rain started bucketing down in Bang Na. Hope you had a good night.

The worrying thing is I wouldn't have recalled playing a streetside gig if you had not of mentioned it!!

Met some great people, Brian made a great chicken Korma. Good night had by all.,

[paquito]

Great evening indeed, but I'm glad we didn't relocate after the soi bar. Cleaning lady kicked me out of my room an hour ago, who knows how long I'd have slept if she hadn't. Good to meet you all!

[nidge]

I had a good night too, but a terrible morning and still hung over at 3pm! Thanks for the real English curry Brian.

[Moonrakers]

Glad I went home when I did as I still feel a bit rough today despite going home early (ish). Those Sambucas probably didn't help much.

yep rejecting my idea of spice club at 2am or was that 3am? was a vey very good idea; had a hair of soi dog to make it through today. Think it was the tequila at that "very special" bar GFL took us too that did the damage

I think I probably made the right decision to exit when I did.

[BIGTOE3]

A Great night out, thanks to all who attended, met some really nice people, when are we having another one ?

A big thank you to Brian and Tuk for putting on a great curry and of course to George for the drinks.

BT

[Moonrakers]

That curry was indeed very good, so good in fact that I took some home in a doggie bag

And thanks for the drinks George.

A free curry, a free T-shirt and I only spent about 400 baht all night on drinks.

Don't forget the 150 BAHT ATM fee though.

I agree, it was very nie vening and it was nice to see George there and the drinks were appreciated.

The curry was very good, so I am looking forward to that going on the regular menu.

Look forward to the next one.

I forgot about that.

A small price to pay for a good night out though, or at least it would be if I didn't have a Thai bank account.

[Moonrakers]

16HRS to go!!!!!!!!!

All that and you where still late.

[Insight]

Was hoping to head to this - The Crossbar isn't far from my work & gym. Had problems with the (ahem) visa application process however owing to overstay incurred during the week before. And all that.

Hopefully next time

[britmaveric]

Cheers everyone - good to finally meet those that showed up. I think in all it was a brilliant night out. My apologies for showing up late I was engaged with Elsie and Scoopyboobies having quite a few drinks at the Black Swan hence the start early comment.

Cheers to Brian for hosting the event and the delicious curry. The bar staff were brilliant and never allowed us to go thirsty for long.

I appreciate the surprise appearance by George and Webfacts. Ta for the drinks and always good to see TV management show at even the Unofficial Events,

Khun Toad and Bigtoe3 - great lads all around and appreciate the chat we had. Still hoping I win back the dosh I lost to you last season.

Nidge +1 - great couple and they hung around to the end till we were unceremoniously booted from Soi Cowboy. Pleasure to meet both of you and Nidge you got a real gem there.

Steve and I decided to check other venues, but all were pretty much closed. Last attempt was Nana Bar - normally they sell bottles in the parking lot, and last night was no exception. Anyways managed to call it a night after the hunt for the last beer and had an epic lie in today, Feel fighting fit for another round tonight.

FletchSmile\Onnutter - brilliant lads and wanted to give you thanks for the drinks. Sorry about starting the Sambuca shots - sure that put most of us over the top.

A pleasure to meet you Brit, and I hope you have a great trip. Make sure that when you are in BKK next that you let us lot know.

[Geekfreaklover]

Must admit I had to have a 'recovery pint' today.

Look forward to the next get-together.

Thanks to George for buying some rounds and thanks for Brian who put on a curry fitting of a man wearing military medals.

GFL.

It was better than Brits "I love Howard" badge.

Will be in for the football at the weekend mate, if you are around.

No Cornish pasties, but still a good time!
