Wink newbie to forum yes,but old hand to los
hi guys & girls,
only found this forum a few weeks ago it's great, have had some good laughs and sensible topics to take in,so I thought why not join this bunch of good people,youngsters,sick pups,freaks and see where I fit in.well I was the kid first locked in the candy shop in 1977, I last got out in 2003,I'm now back in less than three weeks "can't f_ _ _ _ _g wait to have a good time.after more than 35 times to los "f_ _k I could have bought 6 houses" so I'm not looking for advice but would be great to catch up with some of you bms in mai thai for piss up.I have walked ,staggered,crawled,and been carried out of soi eric more times than I can remember,amazing how there's always a miss world next to you when you wake up in the afternoon and she orders us breakfest.This time time around I'll be with my long time welsh wife a tragic story "she won a competition, tickets back to UK and stop of in thailand in 2003"thus ended my single tours of los,"anybody else would have been over the moon I was devestated but thats another story.looks like a skeaky st this time, "ok any ideas":

Hi welshmike

Welcome to the forum.

35times to LOS you must have a few stories to tell

Theres always a welcome for BMs at Mai Thai. Just let Nicke,the owner, know your board name and he'll introduce you to the other BMs there.

good to hear from you fellow travellers to los, the place is like a drug isn't it my first time in late 1977 was bkk for 2 weeks we hit pat pong and thought we were in heaven,as green as we were told there was no bgs in patts so we only went there for the last two days, oh what eye opener the marine bar was packed with bgs and we were the only 3 guys in there.i've seen a lot of changes since then.returned in oct 79 for 6 weeks I still class that as the wildess time of my life.so thats how I got hooked how did some of you guy s get addicted
