Gonzo the Face Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 I will state my terms for accepting Dave2's passing. Also being on this forum for a goodly number of years, I know of D2's propensity for rushing out and getting photos of whatever site subject was at hand, it would seem within minutes of the original post. SOOOO heres my term for ackknowledging and accepting his passing. If you have truly left us D2, I know that you will surely be in heaven. Sooo I expect you to be up to your reputation and post photos of the place. I await your post with great anticipation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was taken from his room over a week ago by medical personnel in their chosen apparatus shall we say!!!..He didn't just leave his place and avoid posting on 'Thai Visa' or take a trip!!! Reefs were laid by his motorcycle, from many people living in his condo... chatted and had a beer with him a week ago, he seemed perfectly fine and healthy to me, exercising and having a few beers.. For those who need further information you can ask at his apartment.. *** removed**** Sounds like he was either very ill or worse. You could check with the local hospital. There aren't that many in cm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He certainly didn't come across very ill at all...walked miles every day, i saw him 3 times a week in basic line bar,full of life (pardon the pun) 4 beers in different bars every night, loh kroh, muan muang soi 1 etc...Must of been sudden, as he looked healthy..maybe we will never know..but he always used to say "every day could be your last" mmm..

Chiangmai Foxy Posted July 23, 2017 Author Share Posted July 23, 2017 (edited) Can confirm that Dave's nephew flew over last week and the body went back to England to a Crematorium.. Cost a Million or so (Baht) to do it but small fry shall we say!! Richest man in the proverbial... He lived well and couldn't spend it, as he always said to me..

steven100 Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 wow ... One million baht to send someone back home .. seems quite expensive doesn't it. Wouldn't there be a cheaper way ... ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaeJoMTB Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 (edited) He'd just been to visit his mum in the UK, flew back to CM and died within the week. He was very healthy, but a prior history of strokes, probably DVT from the flight. @steven100 Cheaper way, burn them here, send the ashes back, but I guess his mum wanted to do it all back in the UK.

You can find yourself in a zone for hours, not moving...gotta be bad for you. And then all the extra stress added on.......lines, checkpoints, immigration, taxis, traffic, luggage...not for the faint hearted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
