Derek Dangleberries Posted May 5, 2023 Share Posted May 5, 2023 It took me nearly an hour to walk back home from my hotel carrying my back pack. Now that I am huddled away I can say that I stayed at the Chaiyapoon Inn (Chaiyapoon Apartments). I am more than happy with my room and will use it again when I return from UK and continue with my dental treatment. One thing I noticed was the difference in the price of a pint of cider in the area. - Honey Bee on the junction of Honey and Buakhao 150 Baht. - One of the first bars as you enter the poon (DINKY?)was 160 baht - The place next door was fucking 190 Baht ...!!! Sod that, I just walked out.. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek Dangleberries Posted May 5, 2023 Share Posted May 5, 2023 I forgot to mention that on Wednesday on the way to the Dentist I spotted @cartoonman making notes on each bar so expect a new map soon. Then I'll be able to name the place charging an extra 40 baht for a pint of cider .. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coxyhog Posted May 5, 2023 Share Posted May 5, 2023 I have the plumbers coming in next week & they have to take up part of the floor in our 3rd bedroom,which has been my office for the last 15 years.This means moving my filing cabinet which was stuffed full of papers.So I've been sorting out the stuff with our present details on & shredding it & binning the rest.So far I think I've filled about 8 big cereal boxes & 3 wine boxes with shredded paper. Found a Daily Express newspaper dated 1934,it must've been with my aunt's effects....semi detached houses in Golders Green(London) £875 freehold.... 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
galenkia Posted May 5, 2023 Share Posted May 5, 2023 Not now but a couple of hours ago, had Smooth radio on at work, and an advert for blood donation came on. Part of the advert was this woman mentioning her daughter had Kawasaki disease. I said to my mate ‘I’ve definitely got that the amount of Kawasaki’s I’ve owned’. 😂 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boydeste Posted May 5, 2023 Share Posted May 5, 2023 Slept like a log last night in my own bed. Spent the morning playing on the net with much amusement. This afternoon was spent sorting my fishing tackle out from my 3 days on the bank. Now sat in the pub having walked 3 miles drinking Guinness feeling Patriotic! 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nightcrawler Posted May 5, 2023 Share Posted May 5, 2023 Just back from the supermarket where I have stocked up with lashings of Vodka, wine and some beers for the long Bank Holiday weekend in UK. Plus a couple of serloin steaks. Not necessarily just for the Coronation of King George 111, but I will probably watch it. And filled my car up with Petrol. Just in case I decide to drive up to Birmingham to see Barney who lost his legs jumping from a hotel balcony in Pattaya. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going to my sisters to watch it with her as she loves the Royal Family. Probably spend more time on here than watching it. 😂 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek Dangleberries Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 I won't say what I have just done other than say that there is nothing quite as satisfying as using your own bum-gun after a few days away.... I mentioned in an earlier post the excellent shower pressure in the Chaiyapoon Inn .... unfortunately 'tis the same for their bum-gun. It actually made me "yelp" the first time I used it !! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back in the States now and the bum gun is in the top four things I'm missing. In order: Warm weather Thai food Bum gun My teelack Now catching my breath after chasing my grandkids around the neighborhood on a Razor scooter. Attracted a bit of attention from the neighbor parents watching a 66 year old guy racing around the sidewalks with the 5 to 10 year olds. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

galenkia Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 (edited) Watching the Coronation with my sister. f**k me is it boring!. Hopefully the highlight will be old lugholes croaking it on the throne. Main thing is spending time with Jan and she’s happy. She is a staunch Royalist, while I think they are a bunch of inbred, poncing, pervert fuckwits. Better not show this to Jan as she will go ballistic. 😂 Edited May 6, 2023 by galenkia 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually I was a bit out breath as keeping up with 6 year olds is hard work. But it is nice to enjoy clean air where every day of the year you can have a clear view to the horizon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightcrawler Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 Watching the Coronation of King George 111. Looks a very somber affair to me and in need of the fashion police. He's got the crown on and swords etc, so not long to go now before the ceremony is over. God Save The King. I have sworn my allegiance to the King, Long Live the King. Followed by a fanfare of medieval trumpets and a choir of angels and a song by a tenor I have never heard of 😄 Camilla just about to get the Crown perched on her bonce. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
