How'd you know I went to Thailand in 2006!!


Oh if only, I really have to say, best time of my life thus far. I always think of that holiday when I'm down cos i had such great times, it's a great pick me up but it also depresses me that I'm not there

I was referring to my epic voyage to the land known as Vancouver.

I know what you mean though, some of the best days I have spent, we're on that J1. Nothing beats BBQ'in on the front lawn, coaches brought out, bucket o ice cold gargles, followed by an epic game of redass. I think i'm welling up.

You've suddenly made 7 and a half months seem even longer :P

2006 Seems to be the time for Good holidays. Interrailing for me...

If you're going to Koh Phagnan you shoudl time it for the full moon party. Not everyone's cup of tea but when in rome and all that.

Pattaya was seedy but we had a lot of fun there too - we went to this random bizzarre sex-show where they smoke a fag through their pussy and fire paper darts of it at balloons you get to hold up so they can burst them. Weird but funny.

Bloody Hell SE, whats sort party is this?

ShiverinEskimo

It was a laugh - it was off the main street in Pattaya. Girls just doing loads of weird **** that was wrong but exactly what it said on the door "bizarre". One girl empties a bottle of coke into herself, puts the bottle on the floor, stands up and puts every drop back in the bottle. There's the obligatory ping pong ball trick and even a variation on the ping pong ball trick with bananas and a monkey.

All very entertaining.

U sick bastard! Pattaya is a seedy kip tbh! Go to any of those shows down the islands if u must. Avoid Pattaya though tbh.


Predictably I barely got outta bed this mornin, had to skip breakfast so as not to be late, and now feel like crap. Gonna go to the gym after work and shake of le cobwebbe I think.

Also, I got season 3 of My Name Is Earl yesterday, can't wait to watch it! :pac:

Pattaya had it's "charms" and I was there with my missus!:eek:

Great place for cheap shopping, and their's a strip of pubs and nightclubs that are pretty cool. It's basically one big stag party.

I was gonna do a 2 week Muay-Thai camp in Pattaya and to be fair if u avoid the seediness there's lots to do and see.

Aussies take their break in the summer (NH summer SH winter) and come to the land of the Thai. Aussie women and me are a good match. Id rather go to a club and pick up an Aussie lady than go to some show and watch some desperate young Thai girl degrade herself doin weird sh1t for a bunch of greasy sleazebags. So that is what i did. Absolutely no regrets!

I did go to a show, I won't lie but I wasn't paying for anything.




Good man 6th, thought u were gonna do a Dudess and stop in briefly and then vanish like a virgin on debs night! Stick around some!


Lads it may be baltic outside but tis bright, could be a lot worse. I've been goin for strolls on my lunchbreak around the park, tis great, wakes ya right up for the afternoon.

U not in work yet no!? Or have ya beat the system!?

That time of year is in full swing again where the girls want the office like an oven and the lads want the windows open to alleviate the sauna like feel of the room. Followed by that exaggerated shiver and look of contempt from the wimmins. :mad:

Sorry but the lads at the show I was at made my stomach churn. Kuala Lumpur was worse. nightclub full of 50 y.o men with their wedding rings still on and 16-18 year old Malaysian girls on their arm. Disgusting.

Depends which side of the bed I get out of.

This day last week i'd probably have found a negative in it being 5.30 on Friday evening!

I'm in a good mood today though so I guess the glass is certainly half full!

ShiverinEskimo

Not as bad as the 50y.o. men with wedding rings on and 17y.o. Boys on their arm tbh. Totally right though - that part of it is awful to see these dirty old men everywhere. Saying that though I thought you were accusing me of being a sleaze bag. That's Mr. Sleaze Bag to you.

Good stuff.

Had a 2nd interview yesterday, and waiting on a call back today. Fingers crossed. I have another offer on the table (which I have to let them know by today), but I really want to get the one I had the 2nd interview for.

Had an interview on Sat. for a graduate tax role with a big firm. Felt it went absolutely swimmingly, couldn't have felt I gave a better interview, only to get a PFO email yesterday. :mad: Recking my brains as to what I could have done differently, but I guess in the current climate, its one big rat race, and the field is bigger than ever. Damn recession
