I dropped into the Las Vegas complex for the first time last night; the place was probably between 2/3 and 3/4 full and the band appeared to be beginning for the evening. I sat at a bar about a quarter of the way in and had a Sangsom, and bought a drink for a girl there. I think my drink was 80b and hers was 170b. I was enjoying chatting with her and then the band started and like most music bars, it was simply too loud to have an easy conversation. There was a noise meter quite close to this bar and it was hovering between 95 - 100db while the band played. I think it's a nice place and I will go back but I'll definitely be sitting as close to the entrance as possible if the band is on.

Heading off to a local Anzac day dawn service. Lest we forget.

Just got home from the gym. There was this young lady around early 20’s on the treadmill next to me. She had this bra type top on and a lovely pair of tits that were bouncing nicely as she jogged. Tried to catch a glances without being caught lol. Made for a nice workout.

Back in my drinking days I’d have drunk paint stripper and diesel.

Just eaten at Seventy Farenheit in Lamai. Absolutely stunning food.Wife had Pomelo salad followed by a Pork Massaman with a ginger fried rice.I had cheesy garlic bread followed by a Lamb shank in a Penang curry. I had a couple of profiteroles for dessert.

Whilst I don't disagree with that comment, soi 6 has an amazing selection of girls right now ranging from your tug o war team through to 35kgs wet through spinners. I think the saddest thing for me is that you could probably get a decent tug o war team out of many gogos now too, both in Pattaya and Bkk.

Tonights dinner at The Kitchen. Starters were Tom Yum gai for myself,Dim sum for Wie. I had Lamb chops and my Wife had Pad Thai gung.I had an amazing dessert which involved a chocolate cookie base topped with sliced banana vanilla ice cream with a jug of hot toffee sauce poured over the top.

Hired a driver for the day, we are stopped having some lunch near Bang Por looking over to Ko Phangan.

Having a watermelon smoothie on the pier in hua hin,good to be back and feel the sea breeze again,tho noticeably cooler than kanchanaburi ,its still 37. Following the haybail truck for a bit as i thought it would topple,the bend to cha am would have got him for sure if he didn't turn off.

Sweating my nads off, a beautiful day in Lamai but boy is it hot. Going to do some snorkelling now.

Last night's dinner at Robin Hood, I had a French Onion soup followed by a 400gm ribeye with a side's of chips and red wine sauce, with an extra of roasted vegetables and my wife had Tom Yum Gung.

I took my wife to The Manor House at a Castle Coombe today for our wedding anniversary - a lunch- spotted this beauty in the car park.

Sat in The Kitchen in Lamai having just received my litre of Chang, now waiting for our starters to arrive.

Vegan tikka masala with basmati rice and a mini naan bread.

For M'Lady's 58th birthday we had "Beer Food" out on the front veranda... - Duck drumsticks - Fish Tofu cubes - Spicy sausages - Roasted sweet potato Washed down with Leo for The Boss and Shiraz from Lotus's 346 Baht a bottle 13% for me!

Last bunch from Kanchanaburi and some from pit stops today

Mushroom tagliatelle, potatoes with Perl peri sauce, avocado sushi and mixed vegetables with herbs and spices.

Main reason for the testing was because of my family history, both my parents and sister all died from cancer in their 50’s, so I was high risk, but everything has been okay.

Breaded chicken ...forgot to add salt to the flour 😞 ..., with mushroom gravy, spiced roast spuds and honey glazed veg

Chicken Jalfrezi

Being a railwayman I enjoyed taking this photo of how Thai track workers still go about do their job. They were waiting for our train to go past.

M'lady has been out on her morning "Faller Patrol" to see what fruits were on the ground and which were ready for picking. For the first time she picked each type of mango that she grows.. - Four big trees of the "normal" mango that you get with sticky rice or unripe for the bar girls on their periods! - One bush of the "rosy cheeked" round one which I had never seen before moving here. - One bush of the "miniature" mango, lovely and sweet but a bit messy to eat ....

Just left an old abandoned film,TV set,I'll post more pics on my tr,eerie place.

Some pics from Kanchanaburi,I'm staying at the rivet kwai resort pool access room,1800 bht but asked for discount and got it for 1600 for 3 nights. It's quite, I'm in a corner room so perfect,just seen 1 thai family yesterday,this morning a couple of falang older couples ,they might be here for anzac day tomorrow. The bars mostly were busy last night,I think again because anzac day tomorrow, from what I heard lots of aussie s Had a few drinks in 2 bars but nothing of interest, add to that the usual older lady trying her luck with new falang in town,fs then her mate came over after making it obvious I wasn't playing, she had bigger teeth ! with enough spaces for cars to drive through,anyhow did a sharp exit to a nearby restaurant at about 11pm,back to room called ting tong to tell her I been a good man,didn't necessarily plan on that but hey ho. I've definitely got pics from last year on the bridge with these same dogs.

St Georges Day!

Pad thai chicken in kanchanaburi.

My baby hummingbirds are growing...

I wish they would stick to a traditional Thai diet. Whatever happened to the typical Thai girl's description of: Long black shiny hair Five feet 4 inches tall 45 kilo's, wet through. If Soi6 put out a ladies tug of war team they would not have a shortage of prospective anchor women.

Recovering from this morning’s 10 miles. 4 degrees and cold rain all the way round, lovely! The sun has come out now I’m sat in the pub 🙄

BBC-2 in the UK are having a Neil Diamond night,a reminder of what a great singer/songwriter he really was.

Haven't eaten from this Indian for many years because it went down hill fast. My mate said it was back to it's former years, so I decided to give them another go. Very watery curry, but tasted ok. Won't rush back. Chicken vindaloo, chicken tikka Masala, saag aloo, tarka daal and garlic naam.

Breaky after a swim in the sea,at motorcycle cafe,slow day at the beach.

We’ve got a chicken takeaway here in Bristol called Miss Millie’s which is basically a rip off of kfc. In fact, the originally guy who set it up worked for KFC. A new addition to their menus

Leftover new potatoes ...

Sitting eating at a northern restaurant, I swear I was sat here first and these 3 girls chose to sit at step above mlord,not guilty,nice views 😍

Some pics from the abandoned film set. Google maps took me through an army base to get there. Not a soul to be seen,no wonder in this heat. After I headed for a museum and a temple with a kinda strange architecture, will post pics later of these.

At the naga statue cha am,fortunately the weather played ball and sun was behind clouds the whole pleasant journey from hua hin ,off to eat soon.
