Thread: New Year 2018 Thai trip

After a bit of a clean up round the garden













View out back from a year or so ago.

Yer a lucky bloke to live in khon kean jack. Great little city.

I never really warmed to KK city.

Spent a year living between KK and Roi-Et around 11-12 years ago. Loved the bike rides, but got bored quickly. The other towns/cities in the region were nicer and more fun than KK, to be honest.


Of course a helluva lot happens in a decade.

I was gob smacked when we pulled in there recently coming back from cambodia. They are building a sky train now in anticipation of more traffic. Fooking smart move. Got a few mates in khon kean so always engoy it

Damn!

Enjoyed KK more maybe 15 years back or did I just have more energy then
Its a place you really need to know what's what or you just end up in the bars near Pullman (old Sofitel)
Still love nipping into the city though for a gander.
In June I will do a thread on KK as I will be staying in Pullman for 3 nights.

House repairs to do before wedding.
somehow the glass patio entrance door is cracked corner to corner and held together with tape.
Gate runner is totally fooked, needs digging up and replacing.

3k to repair runner, had to have him back next day to do again (sigh)
2,800 to replace glass in door.

Roof soffit at rear is not good, got some pigeons moved in

Good stuff, Jack! seems an okay part of Thailand. Never been myself, if I get around to another visit i'll think about taking the trip. Good luck with it all.

Khon Kaen is a bit like marmite.

brown sticky, and a yeasty aroma?

Jack mate - whose been in the mansion whilst you've been abroad?

Thumbs up. Like the old days thanks a lot mate.

Brilliant pics Jack. I'm often up in KK. Last there for a great Thanksgiving buffet at the Pullman. It is becoming a regular metropolis.

Loving the turn ups on Paw. On the sleeves.

Great stuff Jack

I take it he's not too adept with the chopsticks?

Who's the Billy no mates white guy with the camouflage looking shirt?

Shouldn't the whities be stuck together on one table eating cheese and sipping wine?
