What was it?

I've known a few girls who did it bad on the Ice in Thailand. Two I knew most, one went one way, one the other. First was a hot gogo girl bitd and got well sponsored by a guy who gave her a condo, good amount to live on etc for her to quit the industry which she did. The two problems with this were that her sponsor didn't live in Thailand full time and she got bored/missed the fun life and so on. She wasn't using at this point but he caught her cheating and ended the relationship with her, kicked her out of the condo etc. She went back to the bar work but had put on a few KG and that's when she started using to help lose weight. I met her a few months after this point but didn't find out about her using until a while later. I stopped seeing her when she delayed a meeting one day with me for hours, turned up obviously having been well on it for god know how many days/nights and was a mess, that's when the full extent of her issues became clear. She lost the cheap room she had been renting, lost her job, wasn't internet savvy so couldn't FL using CL or TF etc like other girls do. I think she was basically living on the street or near to it when I saw her next randomly one morning. I bought her coffee, food, paid for two weeks rent on the by-the-night cheap room she was staying in when she had money. After this I didn't see or hear from her for a good while and when I asked other girls and Mama's etc if she was still around a year or so later none of them knew where she was. She popped up in the Middle-East, I guess she got trafficked out there but had managed to work off her debt and was doing well for herself, totally off the gear, which I guess is near impossible to get where she was living. AFAIK she is still doing OK. Second was a v attractive girl who worked around all the types of job in the industry over a good few years. She was using for many years which I didn't know about but kept it under control well until a couple of years ago when she went off the rails for unknown reasons and descended into a bad state which is when her habit became clear to see. Don't know what happened to her, she went off the grid.

My version was COBOL for IBM VSE, it was OK I thought, I disliked the IBM JCL more. Moving from dumb terminals on SNA to 3270 emulation via IP on PC's made it all a lot easier though.

This always makes me 🤣😁🤣

Spot on, if you can drive off-boost then mpg can be really good.

I had one of those too. I remember it being recalled to fit the rear lip spoiler and not being too happy about it. I think if you can find an early 225 now with low miles, non-molested, in standard spec, good condition etc, it will become a sought after classic.

Just heard this on the radio and had to then play it again on YT right after. Best mashup from the 2000's house scene. Remember Layo and Bushwacka dropping it at Tribal Weekender and everyone going nuts 🙂

Got this a couple of weeks ago.

You're right, he is 102! Wow, go Kirk.

Must have been the last living from the golden age of Hollywood.

Thought i'd have a quick looksee, just wondering like.... ...And yes he Is still playing it out 16 years later 😁 From 1:10 onwards is skill level final end of game boss. That crowd looks a bit ropey though, it was much classier in Pacha bitd 😉

One of the best dance music videos - The track isn't back either 😎 Can remember like it was yesterday the S-Man dropping this at his Pacha residency on a Monday night in 2001 the year it was released and everyone going nuts for it.

Watching and listening to a two seat Spitfire doing circuits around my area for lucky paying passengers. Tempted. Very tempted.

Nice one mate, I'll Kindle a bit of that, she was one of the smarter stars of the era so not surprising she's penned a good memoir of it. This is also very good -

Not many aircraft of the same era can be in a picture with Concorde and be considered equally impressive but the TSR2 is one of them 😎 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BAC_TSR-2

This made me chuckle, the 2000thb price to get in Line World bloody hurt though.

That reminded me of a great Nigella Easter story I saw t'other day - "Our sincere apologies to Nigella Lawson. We said in last week's issue that she once won £200 off Arthur Smith after he bet that she couldn't eat a dozen pickled eggs in a row. Since publication, Nigella has assured us that it was a whole jar of pickled eggs that she was challenged to eat ("I'm sure more than 20") not just a measly dozen. We apologise unreservedly for the error."

That's /\ a lovely looking bike. The burnt orange tank contrasts the black perfectly.

The Sea Palace I remember right? Been a couple of times and for a touristy place the food was good.
