big red 'kok

big trouble

tv just doesent get better than jack burton

i lived there but was over 10 years ago. well worth a visit and stunning in winter

talinn is a great city, estonian beer was great, women stunning but quite cool in those days

funnily enough back in the uk for a hols and just got back from that U534 exhibit; well worth a visit

decent side

get crowds of up to 25k in a dinky little stadium

i'll go see hiim but cant support anybody with a united in their name

Is Phuket a city?

 

If it is then that is without doubt my winner of worst city.

 

horrible place, that.

town

and its an exact replica of 95% of thai (SE Asian) provincial towns

and indeed a veritable shithole

I have lived in Bangkok for 2 years now and love the place. It is different when you live here. A tourist only sees the back packer or seedy side depending on your style. There is so much to this city. I love the fact that I can get away for a weekend to lovely tranquil areas or crazy spots depending on my mood also.

 

I only spent a short time in London and New York and loved them. I could see myself living in either. Also loved San Diego and San Fran while I was there.

also a bangkok resident and would agree but not one of the better cities i've visited

Good

St petersburg, Stockholm, Gibraltar, Riga, Talin, Hangzhou

Not so good

Kuala Lumpar, Coventry, Birmingham

Not sure (so bad they are good)

Manila, Pattaya

gossip girl

dont impress me much

i'd recommend it

in my 3rd country now been here for 11 years, actually lived here for 3 years before that as well.

its a big world and well worth seeing, i know sounds a cliche but true.

i'd choose somewhere with opportunity as well as a ready made job; thats important

also a large city is easier to keep yourself amused

defo pick a place people would want to visit as it will remove any homesickness you may feel

started on an island in the baltic

then phuket

tokyo

bangkok

except for the island all had opportunity and plenty of visitors

when i was at uni there the sundarbon in selly oak was good; bit up from the OVT pub

but that was way back

cant really go far without falling over one to be honest; not as good as rucholme but generally very high

sickbed of culchainnan (sp)

food of the gods

nice indonesian rendang

indian palak paneer, or a good sag, not too hot these days as the baltis are behind me an dprefer them veggie now

for thai: all abit different

a nice gaeng karee gai, which is a yellow, chicken and coconut milk based which is thicker than most

penang is also a good munch as well

careful with the gaeng karee as karee also means whore and that can get you in trouble in bangers

number 1

dont like voting against balls and badgers but its gotta be done

excellent work all around

ralphie

christopher and furio

in that order

long weekend here in bangkok; 3 not 4 days.

have a work dinner appointment friday so wont be able to get snotted.

family time saturday and then off out to watch the footy. started watching the thai premier leauge this season so despite it being 40 degrees and sweating like a rapist, its been good to see some live games.

sunday will be out for the liverpool game and monday sleeping off the hangover

bit of work here and there and the jobs a good un

Gossip Girl

season 2 i think

still looks the same as when working at the double R dinner as shelly

good call by the way

agree on erikson stuff but it can get a bit like Jordan's stuff

most of the moorcock eternal champion stuff

but particularly von bek, elric, hawkmoon and corum

not pure fantasy but saga of the exiles by Julian May is excellent; crosses over with sci fi a bit

if you like that the CS Friedmen stuff (darkfire?) trilogy is abit differnt too

1st time in 30 years

meat and sweets

easier than booze and ciggies

no where for the day walker to hide

the badger would have him in the trees, on the beaches, in the lanes and in the fields

never to be defeated

burtonwood

walton

brum

saaremaa

bangkok

chiamg rai

phuket

yokohama

nagoya

bangkok

i get around i guess

it had done him over and was looking for the lions

and if thats not enough it did the lions next

YouTube - Honey badger vs lion pride. Honey badger owns lion pride.

YouTube - Honey Badger & Leopard

watch this clip where the honey badger fucks this leopard up

never mind a seal

oh and change your votes accordingly

tough draw for the badger as that seal is a right bastard

but

persistence, tenacity and a real bad attitude sees the badger submitting the seal late in the 5th round

keeps away from those jaws and gives him a right good shoeing

i done goofed up

posting and alcahol im afraid

lo siento
