Shame he never got onboard here…… Yeah, good lad on the Secrets forum. One member I'd love to have met but never did. We have similar sense of humour so reckon we would have got on great. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Glasseye Posted February 8, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 8, 2022 Often wonder how Code is doing. Quite a character, over the years attempts to meet up never panned out. Certainly did spice things up a bit. I've never gotten the low down on why he left. I am guessing it was for good reason as he could often get a little cantankerous from time to time. But, I sure did enjoy some of his posts as he did contribute a great deal. Just sometimes got a little to big for his britches I reckon. Speaking of Spicing things up... Ol Thai Spice... Another classic poster who ocassionally would get under some folks skin (including mine), but all the same enjoyed his contributions. 3 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me neither although we spoke on the phone a couple of times as I recall regarding posts of mutual interest. Code's posts unfortunately all too often gave one the impression that he was somebody that seemed to attract violence like a magnet. Most people, including me, spend a lifetime "generally" successfully trying to avoid conflict. I remember Code making a post on the subject of the use of a pencil as a tactical weapon. I use a pencil to do the crossword in my Daily Record. Thai Spice was a misogynistic drunk and a legend in his own mind. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I been there for all his trips except one he did around September, I believe he stayed the duration that one too! He lasted 5 days on his last one.

Popular Post Krapow Posted February 8, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 8, 2022 I'd love an amnesty, let people like @code_slayer_bkk, @Ivan the Terrible, Thai Spice back again TBH.

I met Code briefly once in the old Secrets bar in the company of a couple of other boardies and he seemed alright; later he left a note on my messenger to meet up in BKK but I unfortunately missed it - I often wonder what kind of night we would have ended up having! Seemed to me, reading his accounts of physical mayhem, that you could take the boy out of Brooklyn but you couldn't take Brooklyn out of the boy. I also made arrangements to meet up with Thai Spice who had planned to stay at the same hotel as me but one of his kids showed up at the last minute and dragged him off instead - too bad, I was looking forward to it as he always struck me as being an interesting guy. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep I know of a couple of guys who met up with who had to spend a chunk of their time calming him down. I suspect his posts on here weren't far off his real persona (I've not met him myself).
