So now he has 1 horse not 530 (or 600).
What is the horse's name?
One for Arthur.
If I'd been in the UK I would have put a few quid on it as it was heard very often in the pub when my dad was alive.

I don't retaliate against you & that has nothing to do with this forum that's what I meant. What i said about this forum is nothing, after all who the hell cares about my opinion anyway? Yes, I am foolish, being foolish is good because it's nice & people like you when you are foolish they don't it when you are clever or too clever.

rethink the gibberish you just spewed out , no one understands what you just said .... not even you . rethink and try again .

These modern times sure do have their good sides too.

I had no idea what Lammtarra and Shergar were all about, of course I suspected a cheeky joke, but eeeuuuuhhhh? Me no capish!

Just 2 clicks on Wikipedia, and voila: instant knowledge!

And I was right about the cheekyness, I wonder how I guessed that?

The snake head is a troll just looking for an argument and totally off topic.

Ignore it.

Guys what happened to our lovely thread. It seems the peace and harmony that we engineered and enjoyed for such a long time had been shattered by two guys who just seem to want to piss each other off. Wish they would use a different sandpit so as not to soil this one with their vitriol.

Just a last comment on the music before I'm off to to slumber land.

I have loved all the posts guys, but are we not missing the 4 ton Elephant in the room?

There were a few bands we have not even mentioned, Police, Doobie Brothers, 10cc, Caravan anyone remember them? Quite a few more if you think back.

The elephant I am talking about is of course The Eagles, love it or hate it Hotel California has the ultimate last line...

Do I need to remind anyone...... (and most of the other lyrics apply too)

 

It's been a pleasure to converse with you guys.

Take care, I will try to do the same.

Good health and cheers.

I can never hear an Eagles song without thinking of a New Year's evening many years ago which I spent in the O club in McMurdo listening to the classic "New Kid in Town". That was an entirely mad and wonderful night, which I will never forget.

Not for nothing do we call certain songs the "soundtrack of our lives". Many songs bring back my memories as if they were yesterday, for good and bad, happy and gutwrenchingly sad.

 

Don't know about you guys, but as I get older, most music I like makes me more sad than happy, as life winds down to the ending. Even Hotel California makes me teary as it reminds me of when it was popular and I had everything ahead of me.

 

Perhaps Meatloaf sang it best

 

But it was long ago and it was far away, oh God it seems so very far
And if life is just a highway, then the soul is just a car
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are
And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are

Ha ha, good one. Trouble is we are now in a clapped out 60+ year old car on the "Highway To Hell"...

 

 

Hi guys, 

 

thought i I would give you the heads up on the end of my relationship with Thailand and all it's horrors and problems. 

 

Having undergone some some proper medical checkups here I discovered that my knee bone ( long Latin name that I have forgotten) was cracked and as it had set in the wrong place I will now have a limp for a long time in the future. The diagnosis of DVT in the same leg  was correct but was not being treated correctly,that has been addressed. Finally to cap it all my dear wife got back on her high horse, started giving me all the grief and accusations yet again on line so I thanked her, said goodbye and deleted the app. I have a new UK SIM card and doubt very much if she can contact me any more, which is now the plan. 

 

She pushed me to the limit ( almost an eagles song) from which there is no turning back. 

 

Now i I can really aim for a full recovery

Congratulations, Your Darkness!

Good luck Senhor das Trevas,

Keep us up to date with any occurrences , you know we love a bit of gossip on TV ! [emoji4]

Good luck Dark Lord. You have done the right thing. Disconnect from your unwanted past and connect with your dreams.

Lads any chance you two can reconcile?

 

Both of you seem like decent chaps wirh maybe different ideas but I see no malice in either of your words and this thread has surprised a fair few thus far so I'm wandering if it can spring a few more and perhaps you can both put differences to one side and do the unthinkable?

 

Failing that how's about a Glasgow kiss for both of you xxx

Well done. I fully support the latest move.

Of course, don't forget the old saying:

"Hell hath no fury like a Thai wife scorned."

Ha ha! Take it easy...!

G

 

 

I had just one LINE message too much, and it was what broke the camels back as well.

 

They are within themselves, their own worst enemy with hate, scorn and a refractory sense of jealousy. No matter what, to her and now within her social circle, there will always be another woman.

 

It is just how they work.

 

I blocked, changed my number and started again and profoundly deep inside; it hurt like ****. Don't weaken now. Better times await. You have left her a nice house and a car she can sell.

 

I do not know many Thais in my village that has a million baht in the bank or could sell such items and if they did, they would consider themselves very wealthy.

 

Best of luck TDL.

Glad you have made a decision. Either way the decision is what gives you the direction you need to remove all the wondering that your brain has to endure.

Good luck mate. I hope the knee recovers quickly and you can build that financial buffer to help the future. I hope you can endure the bleak winters.

Good for you mate, glad you've got your diagnosis and on your way to a certain amount of recovery. Does this mean your not even coming back to Thailand for a beer on the beach?.

 

I've just returned from the dead, it was only a few days ago it was taking me more than an hour to get out of bed but the hospital and I found my problem about the same time, polymyalgia rheumatica, it is an auto-immune infection which attacks the hip & shoulder joints drastically reducing my mobility. My wife even put our settee on bricks so I could get off easier lol. Thankfully it is 100% curable or controllable so I'll even be able to go back to work if I find some, I used this website to diagnose myself but you have to pick from a few possibles so you do need a certain amount of medical knowledge and a doctor to confirm.

I haven't gone back far through the lost pages but on seeing a tennis match I gave up. Anyway very sad to hear of the passing of Glen Campbell a very underrated guitarist by a lot of people.

 

 

 

Glen Campbell RIP.

 

Bill Bailey; one of my favourite comics. Not bad at the music either.

All this music talk has has made me break out my black fender strat, something I promised I would never do since I bought it until I could knock out the second solo of Comfortably Numb ( Pulse version) note perfect. Can't do that yet but nailed Time. 

You have a big problem with Dave, he plays loud through Hiwatt amps which stay clean to high volume so has a natural sustain from playing loud a la Hendrix and so not relying so much on front end gain of the amp or distortion pedal use. He would record from the control room of the  studio with a sustain pedal in parallel to the amp feed which then fed an amp & speaker so the guitar would feed back at low volume and get brilliant sustain while sounding really clean through the studio amp. *** amazing.

All my music heroes are dead or nearly. Where are the new ones to take over- nowhere to be found. Music was destroyed by drugs, big business and greed. 'nuff said.

Its a head butt
