The madness has begun...
Looks like the madness has already started, went to turn into Bangla about 10 mins ago and all I could see up by U2/Kangaroo area was a mass of water, it's probably the BM's on tour starting the trouble
Decided on Sawatdirak instead and they've started there too, although managed to sneak past.
So, the bike is now securely chained to my gate and i will not be using it for the next 3 or 4 days, I may even give the key to someone to remove the temptation!
Will be out in my speedos and thongs later then, probably the only time of year I will end up shirtless on Bangla

I was there last year, so I don't mind skipping it this year. Next year we get a Golden Week (Ching Ming Festival is day before Easter break) just before Songkran, so it would be a shame not to go - but I think I will spend Songkran at GF's village.

How do you plan on getting to Soi Eric without being drenched first??
I'm meeting at my mates bar in Soi Croc so think it will be a wet one, I think I'll do the first night and then give it a miss

gfs working 0800 1500 tomorrow, so she is catching the song taw and her father is arranging a squad car to take her home.
gfs father will be at the next village supervising some sports.
does not want his daughter getting wet or powder on the face too much.
he worries too much about the gf catching cold, got to love them, but intense family.

i quite like songkran, but not the crazy farang type, how many times you want a drunk tourist throw water at you ?
my best songkran, walking on a suburban street in bkk and being invited to the party, thais only, absolutely great time.

along with the phone, money, keys etc...
this already sounds like hard work tonight...might go up the airport and get them to wrap me up in that blue stuff...though I don't think spending the night in Soi Croc will be a good idea looking like this...

Most of the water is clean enough, but we also have some "waterfalls" on some of the walls in Tiger. And when it gets out of hands and people are taking water from these places its easy to catch a coold or an eye-infection.
Also seen people useing water from the streets to refill their guns.........dirty shit.....

I couldn't agree more - there are only so many bucketfuls of water you can take before you're severely tempted to lamp the cnut...

From what I hear, you could have done with a cold shower the other night. Maybe stop you being frisky with other BMs girlfriends

Songkran . . . No Thanks!
Hey all . . .
Arrived home safe, sound and dry, last night. I have experienced Songkran 3 times now, and that is enough for me.
Thanks to all the BM's I met, and the BGs too!
Cheers
Pdm3
