The flight will leave EDI at 20:40 so the only decent connection to BKK will be onto EK372 with an 85 minute transit.  A bit too tight for my liking.

On the return it's similar with a flight departing BKK at 09:30 giving a 95 minute transit arriving in EDI at 19:05.

Yes, that's way too tight for my liking too.

Just binge watched The Long Shadow.

A crime series about the investigation into the Yorkshire Ripper.

What an absolute cluster f**k of mistakes and arrogance by the officers in charge!

It's 3am, time for some kip.

In readiness for my late arrival in Pattaya on Friday night I checked out the Pizza Company website for my favourite pork ribs .. which I think I once recommended to @boydeste .... But they are now off the menu!!!!

You did, but I never got to try them.

I got roped in to The Royal Tournament at Earls Court in 1976ish but I doubt that is what you meant.

It had three highlights..

1 The Field Gun Competition.

2. A group of sexy WRENS dancing on a stage to the Hornpipe toon 

3. Some young sailor climbing a mast with his mates ...

I was at the Royal Tournament around that time too with my parents.

Fantastic show with the field Gun comp being what I most remember.

Jak Jones can hold his head up high. Now in the top 16 and 200k better off. He beat some top players on his way to the final

Absolutely he can. 

Hopefully it will allow him to feature in a few other tournaments now.

Good effort from Jak, but Karan was too strong.

I managed to suffer the music in "Lust" on Soi 6 for a wee while, but it was so loud as to be bloody offensive.

Excessively loud music can and does deter repeat customers, I'd have stayed there and purchased more drinks had the music been at a reasonable level. Sometimes a manager should "read" the bar and customer base and adjust the volume of the music accordingly.

Several of those bars on the 6 have the music that loud, I can't actually stand out on the street in front of them.

Insane methinks!

The snooker has just finished, so it's time to get showered and to take a walk to enjoy the remaining heat of the day.

I may even drop into my local for a couple of pints of the black stuff.

Constant heavy drizzle here with some heavier downfalls from early morning until 1ish...

Muggins here was approached by the sailing club yesterday... they offer a ferry service at weekends to take mooring holders from the shore to their moorings....and didn't have a driver for this morning....

I've just got home.... cold, and wet, and bloody miserable...

You are a gutten for punishment mate. LOL

Cheese omelette with ham and a couple of spuds.

Well done pork and apple sausages, with tenderstem broccoli and buttered potatoes.

I do like my sausages well done.... cooked in an air fryer

A man that knows how to cook sausages. 😃

Butcher's sausages with veg and beans. A few extras from previous nights take away.

Hmm i dont believe tourists hitting the 6 for first time would be dissapointed ...

Absolutely they wouldn't be, just the opposite from my visit a few weeks ago.

Is there any point reading stickman these days .... all of his information is second or third hand 🤷‍♂️

I struggle to think who his target audience would be, maybe the same older generation that he describes whom seem to be living in the past.

It's only a few weeks ago that I was on the 6 and the amount of available girls of all shapes and sizes was very impressive.

100s of them and I do mean 100s of them all hoping to snare a ST.

If I was a newbie walking the 6, I would be overwhelmed and delighted with the amount of available pussy!

I tell a lot of guys at work who are obviously frustrated and moaning about their wives or gfs at home....book yerself at trip to thailand for some me time,no point being unhappy at home or at work,ye only live once.

I know several guys in a similar situation with their wives and life.

Seems they are afraid of change and continue to live in a miserable environment.
