mbkudu Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 Have a good journey matey. You'll be back in Thailand soon enough and better prepared the next time around I'm sure. I'm moving to Thailand at the end of this year and I am sorry that I won't be able to meet you. Anyway, hustle the bucks and get back soon. Mbk.

TRIPxCORE Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 I will fly up on Saturday and have a few beers as I am off to Vegas on Sunday. Are you really coming to Las Vegas? Scampy, good luck to you back in your native land. For as sad as you might be returning there, maybe the best of times await you. You might wind up finding a great job you love, that pays great money and then you can retire early and come back to Thailand then. You posts on TV have been most creative and you opened yourself up more than any other person online I have ever seen while keeping us interested in the details of your life. You have a good head on your shoulders and you'll be fine wherever life takes you. Whatever you do, don't be sad about leaving. Take away from LOS all the great times you had and life lessons you learned and take solace in the fact that you gave it your best shot. Don't be a stranger around these parts ok?

Boon Mee Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 Best of luck Scamp in whatever you do. I think it can be said everyone's been concerned for you and it's good to see a positive move? Chok Dee Krup! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chok Dee Krup! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Cheers Boon. I've been very concerned for me, no more so than now - but I usually land on my feet. Funny how I find the prospect of England more frightening than Thailand. I think I feel another Frank Sinatra parody coming on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baht&sold Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 I was once criticised by the owner of a well know magazine here for putting creative energy into a site where I won't make any money <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Well known??? That counts me out Farewell...I've perhaps utilized ThaiVisa more than most, and yes, I am guilty of enjoying the recognition and attention, perhaps because back in England I'd always wanted to be famous for my creativity in whatever area <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Chin up Scamp - just for the heck of it, do a google on "The Gentleman Scamp"... you are tops in the first four results- beating out Charlie Chaplin Google: The Gentleman Scamp See ya Saturday!

The Gentleman Scamp Posted May 12, 2005 Author Share Posted May 12, 2005 (edited) Bye Bye to you too! You got a mention in the song... And now, the time has comeIt has been fun, yet so uncertain I've seen, them come and go From 12Call, to Thomas Merton I've lived a life online but now it's time, to hit the runway Oh no, no turning back - I'm flying one way Regrets, I've had a few But then again, just that suspension Last year, when I was new, I had a wart - not worth a mention And now, the year I've had, will soon be dead... Upon arrival Sunday Goodbye, my dear Bangkok, ...I'll be back one day. Yes, there were times, in Hua Hin Thought I would die (but not with Ning) But to you all, I pen this song From DJ Pat, to Doctor Pong, I'll live in hope, I'll dodge the soap, and return some day I've tried, I've taught and learned I've spent and earned, I've been a carny Down south, when in Phuket, I met tornado, but missed tsunami To think, I did all that, And to be honest, in quite a dumb way, Oh no, no not again... Back on the runway For what is a Scamp, who goes in blind? I changed my avatar, but not my mind To post the things, inside my brain, and not the words, of those who flame The postings show, I had some blows, now I fly one way So don't complain!

elsie Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 Leaving On A Jet Plane John Denver All my bags are packed, I'm ready to go I'm standing here outside your door I hate to wake you up to say goodbye But the dawn is breakin', it's early morn The taxi's waiting, he's blowin' his horn Already I'm so lonesome I could cry. Chorus: So kiss me and smile for me Tell me that you'll wait for me Hold me like you'll never let me go. I'm leavin' on a jet plane I don't know when I'll be back again Oh, babe, I hate to go. There's so many times I've let you down So many times I've played around I tell you now, they don't mean a thing Every place I go, I think of you Every song I sing, I sing for you When I come back, I'll wear your wedding ring. (Chorus) Now the time has come to leave you One more time let me kiss you Then close your eyes, I'll be on my way. Dream about the days to come When I won't have to leave alone About the times, I won't have to say, (Chorus) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThaiPauly Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 I know we have never met, but if we ever had I know we would have got on. Thanks for being YOU mate, we have'nt always seen eye to eye but what the heck,life's not like that anyway, if we were all the same what a crashing bore it would be. Anyway best of luck in your new life Scampy, I bet that you will be scoping the site from time to time, I'll pm you when they close Soi Cowboy With kindest regards TP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kayo Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 All the best Scampy. We've never met, but rest assured, should you ever turn up in Guatemala, you've got a mate there. I love and miss Thailand very much, but have chosen to move on for now, with a vague idea of returning to LOS later in life. If you fancy a pint, and a nice Ladina Woman, c'mon over. Best of luck back in the home country. Can't say I miss it myself. Ciao, bud, and hope to see you back on tv.com soon. PS: Should you not return on tv.com, and if you do ever publish anywhere, I feel we should be the first to know about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
