**filch** · 07-01-2009, 12:24 PM

Xmas tree's have come down etc... so can we take the Santa hat off the TD logo now?

**dirtydog** · 07-01-2009, 12:27 PM

Probably do it the Thai way, leave it up till next year

**Troubled** · 07-01-2009, 12:28 PM

Trees etc may have come down where you are but not over here.
So much for the 12 days of Christmas.
Decorations up in November and down when they can be arsed

I am from 'here'. And yeah, I know what you mean when the lazy arsed service staff can be bothered dragging themselves away from the somtam to bring them all down again.

Still, I am sure TD owner isn't Thai, is he/she/they?

Christmas is the best time of year. It is such a shame that now it is a mere commerical enterprise focusing on the lord Euro.

Looks as if he/she/they has/have gone native.

Oi! TD Owner. Get yer arse away from the somtam and get that hat sorted!

*probably a good way to get myself banned - telling the forum owner what to do!

PLEASE do. Haven't had a good tale here in ages.

**filch** · 07-01-2009, 02:01 PM

I couldn't do that to a friend. Unless Mr FP wants to tell us himself. 'Tis a rather amusing tale!

**The Fresh Prince** · 07-01-2009, 02:12 PM

Go ahead, its a good un.

Alrighty then, with FP's permission.

So there we were, in Suphanburi, for a friends wedding. A great night (prior to the wedding the next day) was being had by all. FP was downing vodka like it was water and rapping over classic tracks such as Lady In Red on the karaoke. Some class performances I hear.

Everyone, was let's say a little worse for wear. Most sensible people took the Hotel bed option as a suitable method of recovery. Not old FP.

FP decided a better recovery rememdy would be to take a stroll (at about 4am in the morning) in the unfamiliar territory that is Suphanburi. You know, like you do when you're bladdered, seems like a good idea at the time. Now, in FP's own words "something bumped into me as I was walking by the klong".

Now to give you an idea, this klong is about 15 meters wide, and FP was bumped so hard that he literally flew into the middle of this klong and had to swim back to the steep embankment through this aboslutely rat infested shit soiled klong (poor bastard). Now, not only was it bad enough that he didn't see or have any idea what hit him. He then assumed he was in Bangkok, obviously dazed by the incident and having consumed his own body weight in vodka.

Dripping away from the klong looking like a swamp monster, he hails the nearest (drunken) motorcycle taxi - at 4am! And yells at the poor bloke to take him home, his home address in BKK that is! So this poor chap takes one look at FP, has a think to himself, and agrees! Haha. It's only after he's been riding for about 20 minutes that he realises he's nowhere fucking near Bangkok and promptly reinstructs the motorcycle taxi to take him to the Hotel we were staying.

Upon arriving he had to face the walk of shame dripping in front of bemused and chuckling Thai Hotel Desk Staff. Farang Ting Tong, Ba ba bo bo could no doubt be heard and he slimed passed.

Needless to say, we didn't see him at the wedding the next day, although he did make an appearance at the reception in the evening and was back in fine form on the Karaoke again that night!

Good times huh FP! Hehe.

Christmas has only just begun if you follow the Orthodox Church

**The Fresh Prince** · 07-01-2009, 03:14 PM

^^Well Told.

Good times indeed, we must go up there for another weekend, just minus the klong!

**filch** · 08-01-2009, 11:08 AM

Flower arranging? Decoupage? A spot of water colour painting?

**kingwilly** · 08-01-2009, 11:37 AM

**melvbot** · 08-01-2009, 11:53 AM

Buy one get one free at the roast beef sandwich stall more like.

The Klong story reminded me of a mate of mine in the Netherlands maybe 25 years ago.
He was pissed out of his brains driving home at 3 in the morning, along the Amsterdam /Utrecht road that runs beside the ship canal with only a 6 ft gravel path separating road from water.
Decided to roll a cigarette while he was driving.
Lost control and drove straight into the canal - about 4 meters deep !.
Got out through the window swam ashore and got a taxi home.
Now this road is absolutely straight and featureless and he couldn't remember the next morning the place where he went off.
We spent the next day looking for marks in the gravel and oily patches in the water - zilch!!
As far as we know somewhere along that stretch is still a 30 year old Renault Dauphine waiting to be recovered !

**Happyman** · 08-01-2009, 02:29 PM

P. S. Probably the best place for it - what a crappy car that was !

**The Fresh Prince** · 08-01-2009, 02:47 PM

The next day at the wedding when you stick the money in the envelope, my money was still wet and stinking of klong.
