Taken from the news...

BANGKOK (AFP) - Parliamentary candidates in Thailand's upcoming election are trying to buy the votes of elderly men by passing out free Viagra, a local government official said Friday. Thais head to the polls on December 23 for the first time since the military toppled the elected prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra in a bloodless coup last year.Residents in Prathumthani, on the northern outskirts of Bangkok, reported some of the candidates were passing out doses of the anti-impotence drug in exc

On the way home

Just checked in at Manila airport, Bangkok bound.Said goodbye to my little Guy last night, which was not a nice moment. We had a great last day starting with a long breakfast together, chatting, and putting the world to rights. We then had an hour of cartoons on the TV in the hotel room with ice cream. (As you will know from my toned figure, I rarely eat such fattening foods - I just dod it for him). After having a little nap, and after feeling the earthquake in the hotel room on the TWENTY SIXT

Our day today:)

It was the first Full day that Robin and I shared today. His Mum stayed until he was well asleep last night, and when he woke up this morning, he was running around the room trying to find her, and was a little worried, distressed, and confused. I had already had prepared a bath, so I took him to the bathroom, encouraged to splash Dad, and he soon cheered up. We then got dressed, he picked his own clothes he wanted to wear, and it was off for breakfast.  I have been so lucky in the past. I hav

Bye for now...

Well, the time has finally arrived. TOmorrow, Manila here I come. Today, I met Mum for lunch, and it's a bloody good job I did!!!!! Whilst I KNEW I was meant to be flying on the 14th, I somehow had in my head that the 14th was on THURSDAY!!. Mum said, "Well, I guess you won't be out late tonight, Stuart", I replied, "No I won't, but I don't fly until Thursday anyway". Mum said, "I thought you flew on the 14th - TOMORROW is the 14th". I looked at me calender, and bloody hell, She was right!! I wo

BLOODY nervous

Well, it's almost time. Back to Manila on Thursday to see my little Guy. Two weeks ago, thinking about this trip, put me on cloud nine. As it gets closer, I am getting the gitters. The last time I spent any real time with him, was when he was just 11 months old. I stayed with him for four days, and although I was nervous when I went, it was a breeze. But, this will be different. He is 3 years old now; he has started to form opinions; he has started to have wishes and hopes; he knows what fo

Happy Birthday, Mum

Today, my Mum turns 70.    I have been waiting this, for a long time. In some ways, I wish it never came, however, in other ways, I am proud of today. None of you will ever know the struggle that my Mum has fought to be here today. Lots of people struggle. But at the end of the day, not many of them can continue to smile, laugh and joke.  I am not the first person who offers his emotions face to face, but I would just like to say, to the TF community, that there is not one Woman, in this wo

My Son, My Mum, and me:)

Well, what a week:) As some of you are aware, last week, I contacted the Mother of my Ex, regarding my Son. I think most of you have seen me post journals about my Son, Robin in the past, and know how much I miss him. He was born on 15th September 2004, and I have only met him twice, in 2005, due to not being able to reach an amicable agreement with his Mother. I am not going to go into details, but I have offered a lot in the past, it has been denied, and on the other side of the coin, I ha

Stanley the sperm

One day, Stanley the sperm was doing his usual thing. Sitting in a quiet place, all alone while his friends, all the other sperm were talking, and socialising. Stanley started his routine - exercise. Sit ups, push ups, and running on the spot. This had caused great fascination to all the other sperm for quite some time, and they couldn't keep their cuirosity to themselves any longer. A delegation of the other sperm approached Stanley, and asked why he was so intent on keeping fit."Ah, well", sai

Thanks, Cate

Yesterday, those of us who turned up, had a great day out at the Grande Palace, Wat Po, and another place which I can't remember the name of.  Cate hosted the event, and for those of us who showed up, she gave a very informative tour of all places, and impressed us all with her knowledge. Not only that, but little extra things made it. She brought rain jackets for everyone who signed up - luckily it didn't rain, however. She also booked a table for everyone who signed up for dinner - but for

Koh Samet - The ultimate collection!

It was an interesting weekend to say the least! As Papa has mentioned, the first evening, Friday, was mainly spent relaxing, settling into our rooms, and just chatting with friends. Saturday was a little more lively! We spent half of the evening at Baywatch Bar, and then left after waiting over an hour for our food. This was not the fault of Robert or Beer as they bring food in from another restaurant. It was simply a forgotten order, which no one would actually admit to, surprise surprise. W

I'm leaving...on a bus:)

The bags are packed, and it's time to go to the beach:) Have been looking forward to this for a long time, and finally the time has come. A long weekend of relaxation, swimming, and of course, beer:) I will be a little bit thoughtful on Saturday as it is my Son's 3rd Birthday. Miss you Buddy:( Also, Sunday would have been Uncle Mike's 3rd Anniversary on TF, so we will have a drink for him, and if you are not with us, have a drink for him also.  Have a great weekend all, and see you soon

Live from the office

I am currently sitting in the office bar sith StevieJR, Por, Ris, Joy, and myseld. A few oments ago, Giles was with us, but he had to go home because he was feeling a little bit giddy on his diet Coke.  ANYWAY. I would just like to share a little story with you all. Earlier in the evening, Stevie's phone rang, and he rushed outside the bar to avoid the noise, and took the call. There was a Lady speaking to him, who told him how much She missed him, and that She had met him in Absolute bar ear

Bambam101's Birthday pics

Last night we had the birthday party for Pam, Bambam101 at Absolute. She had no idea the party was planned. We arranged it so that when she stepped into the bar, everyone upstairs on the balcony started bursting balloons, and setting the party poppers off. She was shocked, but very happy at the surprise:) Thomas was his normal, quiet, reserved self, as was Bruce. Thanks to everyone who came, and hope you had a good night. Here is the evidence. Bee, experiencing some real balls for a change

Koh Samet next month

It's getting closer - next month - a long weekend in Koh Samet.  It's a very significant weekend for me in many ways... 1: My 3rd Anniversary in Thailand (15th Sept) 2: My Son's 3rd Birthday. I cannot celebrate it with him as many of you know, but I can still have a drink for him:)  (15th Sept) 3: Some of you may remember from last year, that the 16th Sept is the 3rd anniversary from when Mike, Khun Lung, signed up on TF. We had a great celebration last year, so let's do it again this year:)

My trip - part deux

THe main reason for my trip to Dubai was to meet a Guy I have met on previous occasions in Bangkok. We met one evening, hit it off, met every time he came back to Bangkok, and discussed doing some business together. I went to Dubai to put a proposal to him. We had arranged for my 3 nights in Dubai, that I would stay with him in his apartment. My foul mood, due to the delays, and my previously mentioned broken seat, were soon to be quashed upon arriving in Dubai. After stepping off the plane, a
