DON'T .... forget to check www.eyesonbangkok.com for what's going on in town. Meet the people of Bangkok. It's my brother Mike's site, and he does a better job than I do of keeping his site current!
This is the Clearinghouse for all new photos and they are stored here until I get a chance to move them to their respective pages. So if anyone wants to see the latest from our little corner of BKK and surrounding areas, here's where they'll be. Newest on top.
Some pictures have been moved to the 'Bangkok' or 'Bangkok page 2' page to make room for new arrivals. So if you don't see what you had hoped to see, check there.
14 Jan 4 of us lads went to Hua Hin for rest and food. on the 16th Mr. Gilmore joined us. We still don't know who told him where we were???
On 18 Jan the lovely Ming, manager of the 'Pickled Liver Pub' had her birthday party. Many well wishers, and not just a few freeloaders.
T'was the night before Christmas ... almost, and no one could be found who would play Santa for the American Chamber of Commerce Christmas party. So in desperation Mike asked me, knowing the answer would be a resounding 'NO!' But I thought about it for a few seconds and said 'yea, why not'. Had a ball. About 70 of the cutest kids you ever saw, and some older folks who just wanted to be in a pix with Santa. After the performance, needless to say there were tons of food and the best Egg Nog ever. Enjoy.
New Years eve '09 at the house. I believe that this was the last New Years Party at Lynn's house.
Odds and ends at the end of 2009. The new baggy look Safety is our motto
Christmas Dinner '09. More pix to be added as I gather them in. Yes, that really is Michael Gilmore dressed as a ...... don't really know?
And right after Thanksgiving was Miss Sarah's birthday. 28 Nov. Good bash. At least I got bashed.
Thanksgiving dinner on ...... well, Thanksgiving! 14 of us I think. All ate to their hearts desire. Not bad either, for a bunch of pilgrims. (More coming on this one.)
On 21 November 09, our good friend Ali had a birthday party. He was joined by many friends and everyone drank toooo much. Great party Ali. Ali, I added a few more on 8 Dec. I'm sure I missed a few folks but tried to get as many as possible.
A Nice couple from Sweden,
living in the U.S. Joining us. Clayton, entertaining our Cat.
Did a preview of a very nice condo for Ray. It will rent for around 240,000 Baht a month. That's about $7,100 a month for those of you not in Thailand. Being the 'Penthouse' of course it has it's own pool and sun area on the roof. It is 4 floors and 5 bdrm, on the 23rd to 26th floors.
The end of an era. Boston Mark, pronounced Maak leave early the next morning for home. We had (w/o Mark) a great session of playing 99 and then joined Mark for a few final drinks. Sure will be quiet around here now, eh Mike? Fair winds and following seas Mate.
On the eve of sat the 25th of July, Mike Gilmore had a 'male chauvinist pig party / going away party for embassy folks that will soon be leaving BKK. His apt is on the 6th floor and the signs in the lobby said 'men take elevator, ladies use the stairs'. Nice Mike. Real nice!!
On April 4, 2009, a group of us went to the eastern most reaches of Bangkok to a restaurant called 'The Flying Chicken, Restaurant'. We'd heard about it and had to see for ourselves. If you order chicken ... and someone in your group has to ... when it's done they shoot it out of a canon and a waiter on a unicycle often (usually) catches it on the spike on his helmet. In those instances when it isn't caught it is taken off stage and I strongly suspect recycled a few minutes later. Aw so what. A guy comes around and makes goofy hats with balloons and everyone has a great time. p.s. Chicken was terrible. but the place was great. And .. the fuzziness of some of the pictures is because of the water spray cooling system. And maybe too much Heineken.
On 23 May we celebrated Ray's birthday. Won't say which one. Sworn to secrecy. But we did have a good time. Of course being at Mike Gilmore's house, we had to play '99'. I've stopped by to use his bathroom and had to play a game of 99 before I could use it. By then it didn't matter. A bit extreme Mike!!
End of March '09 activities. Such as they were.
Tim 'iceman' Whit, Colorado Jim and I went to Hua
Hin. We met a group of ladies from one of the sororities out on the town. They wanted
us to join them but we chose to go and watch a cricket match that was on.
Pakistan won.
Feb 25, and a few Christmas pix. What can I say.
And then there was the day that Timmy 'Ice Man' took me flying! 28 Dec '08
Ah, the good old days. Iron men and wooden
airplanes. Woodies we called 'em. And John, thanks for a
wonderful time.
