Thread: What are you giving her/him for Valentines?

So happy that my wife does not celebrate this stupid day as well as birthdays and anniversaries. Makes my life so much easier!

^^ I'll have a skiz in the 20 baht shop.

^ Welcome back MM. Long time no see.

Last time we met would have been at a lil resto/cafe in Ubon called..... The Red Pepper cafe??? It was something like that, right?

Run by Richard?

But as they say happy wife. Happy wife

That famous quote

I dunno - i was told if I ever came home with roses on valentines day I would be strung up and killed.

Richard was the original owner of the wrong way cafe in Ubon. The first "farang" hang out in Ubon. Still operating by his ex wife Ting.

Don't believe a word of it.

He is, but doesn't post much due to being in a hissy fit over something or other. He had a bit of a stint in hospital at the start of last year with a lung issue, but thankfully came through alright. The twins are all grown up and engaged/married on the West coast, one's doing really well with a career in Space-X.

I guess you're still on the ranch in the beautiful NT and not back in Big Bad Ubon.


Your Across Oz in a helicopter thread is about as good as a forum thread gets.


Anyway, good to see ya back around. :-) peace out.

Hey buddy, was in Ubon over Christmas and went to Peppers. I got treated like royalty as I knew Mr. A. MeMock the origin of Peppers. Was okay nothing special. The burger was recommended, but they did not have it. The club sandwich was the first one I have had that had Mayo as the main ingredient. 555.

No burgers - oh that is a shame. Glad you were able to drop in. I visit every two years when I am in the area.

Or dementia is finally kicking in.

Haha yep - wicked good bait. Bit like Lamingtons, Crowded House and Russell Crowe!
