Bull Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 Hi Spuds, Have been following your story in silence for a while... It reminded me of a situation I went through some years ago... Congratulations. Whatever happens with the visa now cannot offset the fact that girlfriend has not changed. Wish you all the best from now on Bull Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digger Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 Hey the lead man is back BS - we have already lined up Brad Pitt to play Scouse , Lucy Liu to play Mrs BS, The tyrant is a split vote between Ronnie Corbett "Sorry" or Chris Barrie aka "Mr Brittas" from the Brittas Empire. I was thinking Nigel Hawthorne aka "Sir Humphrey Appleby" from Yes Minister but of course he's already departed this world. now all we need is your pen profile to determine who plays your star role !!! Couple of thoughts: Timothy Dalton - the dashing action man hero Leslie Grantham - "Den Watts" - Eastenders - the likeable rogue Bill Clinton - he is looking for something to do these days Prince Andrew - He needs something to do and he's up for it as he's heard about the multitude of golf courses in Thailand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

withnail Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 Just a thought Spuds, just to help with casting decisions any chance we can ever see a photo I'm guessing that Lucy Lui and Timothy Dalton may not capture the realism so well. Good luck. Withnail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janner Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 BS glad you are back safe and well. Nice to hear things went well for you over in sunny Thai . At least you can take heart that you have put a big "interest" into the forum. Now for the big wait with the rest of us. I wish you and your lady well, Janner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dereklev Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 fisrstly a big load of boll£xs to a lot of you!!!The reason i have not wrote for a week is like pie boy said i was on holiday spending what little time i had with the GF. I'm not desperatly in love with TV where i feel i have to write every day. I have just got back less than 2 hours ago and am shagged out so will not write much at this stage. However all went very well, we went to the visa tuesday (the day b4 it shut) to which my GF pointed out it was shut on wednesday. got there at 6. was about 20 down the line, handed the papers in paid the toll, was told they would contact the GF 1-5 working days in and out 20 minutes. Holiday was very good absoultley gutted to be back and at work in 14 hours. So glad i keep you all engrosed in my love life, you should know what goes on in the bedroom will write more when my heads on properly, but to all you out there that are hoping every thing goes tits up for me............ heres a big finger to you. All is well, very very good in fact. Sorry to dissapaoint you and keep you all waiting but..........thats life. See you learnt ThaIngrish whilst on hols More BS from BS........must be learning from Lucy Lui The embassy was open on Monday 11th. Anyway BS, fact or fiction you have amused many people with your tales of woe and daring do!!! Your scathing attacks on the embassy when your GF is a serial no show were wonderful. Hope she shows this time......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThaiPauly Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 I have followed this thread right the way through but have said nothing so far, what I would like to ad to this carnival is give the guy a chance guys, yes the drama was very funny while he was doing his thing, but lets leave him alone until we get the next communication from him. Half of you have the knives out for him almost wanting him to be proved a fool Lets just wait for the last installment. Inocent till proved guilty right? Good Luck Spuds, hope it all works out for you TP Good luck BS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree TaxExile, no harm having some fun whilst we wait for the outcome. I might be amongst his critics for his total lack of comsistency but I do hope it works out for him!!!

BIG SPUDS Posted April 18, 2005 Author Share Posted April 18, 2005 my feelings were starting to get hurt..........all those nasty things you were saying. I opened myself up so i guess i must be expected to take whats thrown at me. One day i am sure i will prove you all wrong. Its now just a case of waiting the outcome from the embassy. Guess this could drag on for up to another 12 weeks!! I wonder if this thread will still be going. I guess after that long there will be no other names to call me, no more sarcasam to say, no more slagging off my GF, no more i told you so's ect ect. as it would have all been said so many times before. I believe my GF is genuine and her love for me is true and how much she wants to spend the rest of her life with me, its just a case of waiting till it happens however long that will be. The lies are over and she understands how this will all end if she does so again. So lets wait and see............................ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samran Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 I am a cynic, but all the best anyway BS. Just don't get burnt. That song by the 'Who' (Won't get fooled again) keeps going around in my head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIG SPUDS Posted April 18, 2005 Author Share Posted April 18, 2005 as we submitted the application tuesday and the embassy was shut after for some days (i think it opened today not sure) was told to expect a reply by post within 5 - 10 working days. Should a short interview surfice then she could go at her leisure. If a long interview was required 10 -12 weeks. The sign said Next avaialable interview date 7.7.5. So its just a wait........................... Yes when she gets it i will be returning ASAP of course ...ive waited long enough. If not...I will return in about 4 months. And when she gets it yes a large amount of beer like substance will be downed. All welcome. However there will be a small charge on the door as me and my GF are now celeb's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
