Because I love Thailand so much, it has been over 3 years since I have been back down to gods own country, New Zealand. Finally though I have made the time to get back and visit the clan (not flock). Unfortunately this means I will be out of action on TF for 10+ days. But don't worry, I will miss my postings as much as you do.

If you would like any souveniers, please ask someone else. MikeAussieGuy has already filled my baggage allowance with his request for a lambs wool rug... with the sheep still wearing it.

See you when I get back and love to you all (well a few of you anyway),

Baaaaaaaa! Baaaaaaa! say the sheep.

have a nice and safe trip ! ! ! don't harm ze sheep, nor touch the flight attendants, but chant the beauty of thailand ! ;-pppppppp

It's good to see I am getting some original comments here, and not the same old tired stuff about sheep ;-p

Stu_Thailand told me about 45 minutes ago that he is going to make a comment soon; apparently he needs some time to think about it.

Now I have composed myself after reading your post. I told Stu today I am heading back to Australia and will be away the same time as you, the look on his face was one of bliss, with the both of us away he will have his bit of peace for several months.

Have a great trip mate, relax, enjoy New Zuland and showing Wah around, dont make her jealous by flirting with any sheep ( I couldnt help it). Oh and dont forget all that work you got to do.

Jet Plane??? I thought you were swimming.......

Mike: Bliss today, withdrawal symotoms tomorrow. You know, I know, and he knows he'll miss us. Heck, even I miss me if I don't look in the mirror for half and hour!

Those wetbacks!

oh oh oh ........ I love this song

"Leaving On A Jet Plane" (Jonh Denver)

All my bags are packed, I'm ready to go

I'm standin' here outside your door

I hate to wake you up to say goodbye

But the dawn is breakin', it's early morn

The taxi's waitin', he's blowin' his horn

Already I'm so lonesome I could die

So kiss me and smile for me

Tell me that you'll wait for me

Hold me like you'll never let me go

'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane

I don't know when I'll be back again

Oh, babe, I hate to go

I'm ...

There's so many times I've let you down

So many times I've played around

I'll tell you now, they don't mean a thing

Every place I go, I think of you

Every song I sing, I sing for you

When I come back I'll wear your wedding ring

So kiss me and smile for me

Tell me that you'll wait for me

Hold me like you'll never let me go

'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane

I don't know when I'll be back again

Oh, babe, I hate to go

Now the time has come to leave you

One more time, oh, let me kiss you

And close your eyes and I'll be on my way

Dream about the days to come

When I won't have to leave alone

About the times that I won't have to say ...

Oh, kiss me and smile for me

Tell me that you'll wait for me

Hold me like you'll never let me go

'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane

I don't know when I'll be back again

Oh, babe, I hate to go

And I'm leaving on a jet plane

I don't know when I'll be back again

Oh, babe, I hate to go

But I'm leaving on a jet plane

........... enjoy this song ..........

are you flying there or going by water on a sheep?..oops ..i mean ship!

(who said there would be no bad sheep jokes? lol)

Have a nice trip....: 0

Have a good trip mate. At least going back to NZ will re-confirm for you why you are living in Thailand!

"i think your hometown must be so beautiful"...It is at the moment. That will all change in about 18 hours from now.

Mate, hope you enjoy your holiday. On a serious note, all joking aside, from a friend to a friend, please don't feel obligated in any way, to hurry back here. Take as long as you need. 10 years is a good length of time to consider...

What the hell am I gonna do while you and More Rice are away? I'll tell you what I;m gonna do.

1: Play the piano properly

2: Relax

3: Smile

4: Get some peace

5: Set up a cruelty to sheep foundation

Have a good time mate...cheers.
