Well Sunday afternoon we had already arranged, yep we were going up the mountain to see Doi Suthep if it weren't cloudy, if it was cloudy we had something else planned, which off hand I can't remember, that shows how exciting a place can be if you got wives coming with you, and nope, they wouldn't reveal where the short time bars were for an afternoon of fun and reverlery, anyway it turned out that marmite had decided we were all going to Huay Tung Tao Resevoir for a picnic, maybe that was the second choice, I really cant remember, but I doubt it, I believe he relies on people getting pissed and not remembering what they have agreed to
There is a 20baht entrance charge regardless of the color of your skin.
Anyway we get there about 2pm probably, stroller gets a taxi and actually found us, he must have walked miles, he was supposed to ring when he got to the resevoir so we could pick him up, but he has some dodgy German phone.
So who we got there? Lily, Gow, Chang Mai Noons wife I believe, Xzyte and wife, a hung over frisco frankie and wife, marmite who was looking healthy, he only drinks to 11pm cos he still thinks he is in the UK, stroller looking exceptionally colorful, he has a foking weird dress sense, cmn couldn't make it due to his normal hangover, and several kids of the above who actually swam in the water, anyway marmers and co' had stopped off in the market and brought some proper food and some crappy old Aussie beer, although he didn't understand about twist tops and yanked the tops off with a bottle opener, anyway he brought the old chili cheese and lily who has a bit of class brought the cambert.
We ordered a few dishes then argued over who had to eat the offal, pig intestines really don't appeal to me, but I believe GOW enjoyed them, nought wrong with pig poo poo if your from the country side.
Anyway this is the place Thais goto in Chiang Mai cos they aint got a beach there, the place was pretty packed with Thais and Farangs, and the Thais were swimming and pissing in the resevoir, if the wind is up it is a really nice place, when we got there the wind weren't up and it was hot and humid, luckily that changed real quick.
A few comments on the photos, the beer that has ice in it is marmites, the knife in the background was from when he threatened to kill us if we posted the picture of him drinking beer with ice, I mean who cares if he thinks he is an Aussie?
All the seating areas were covered, although a lot of them didn't actually have seats and you had to sit on the floor, the food seemed quite expensive but I think the gals must have had a few tonnes of it.
