coxyhog Posted June 16, 2025 Posted June 16, 2025 Is on 27-29 June anyone going? It's at Lewis Cubitt Square,which looks to me to be closer to St Pancras but I guess that doesn't have the same ring to it. 1 1
Krapow Posted June 16, 2025 Posted June 16, 2025 Went last year, was packed, too packed, though I know this year is in slightly different area in King's Cross. Might go again on the Sunday afternoon. 1

Is that the festival where all the ladyboys pull their cocks out and cross them ? 2

Nightcrawler Posted June 18, 2025 Posted June 18, 2025 Don't think I will attend. A couple of years ago I went to the KC Thai festival and found it a bit lacklustre. Nowhere to sit and beer that ai would not normally prefer I think it's better suited for Thais and good for networking perhaps I would rather have had drinks in a local pub with Coxgog + wife, Nadia and Nampla, to be honest. Seemed to be mainly food stalls and travel promotion stands. I've bee to so many Thai festivals over the years, and to be honest, not really enjoyed any of them. Sorry to be a damp squid on this one. 1

I'm not disabled but I can't stand in one spot for any real length of time unfortunately, especially on a hot day.

Reminds me of primary school...sadistic teacher caught me playing football on prohibited lawn area.

"Damp squid" 55555 never heard that one. Hilarious. Yep.... I have very little tolerance for festival or holiday events. Good places for bad things to happen IMO. I suppose I am a bit jaded after having to work so many of them. Drunken shit fest is what most of them are. Sorry

Krapow Posted June 28, 2025 Posted June 28, 2025 Gonna be way to hot for us. We'll be at the real thing in 17 days anyway, so can wait 2
coxyhog Posted June 30, 2025 Author Posted June 30, 2025 My missus went on Saturday,said it was baking hot & lots of people,only place to sit was on the ground.She didn't stay long. But they did have Chang,which for me is an improvement over the Singha they had a couple of years ago. 3 1
