Redbaron Posted October 28, 2011 Report Share Posted October 28, 2011 It's been a long time - but I've finally booked the flights and I'll be landing in Bangkok around 8pm Feb 9th. I've taken a punt and I'll be doing the Jetstar on the way.... Strategic on the way back from Phuket. As far as I remember I think my last trip was 2004 or 2005, and that was my last stress free holiday. A lot of water has passed under the bridge and all that since then, but really looking forward to catching up with the lads. Unless my calendar's out - day 2 will be a Friday so I'll pop into wherever we're all meeting (Los Cabos?) nowadays before shooting down Pattaya way to see my long lost brothers. Can't wait lads, it'll be huge. Mental checklist - flights booked, insurance on the way, spare batteries and SD cards on order for the new toy. I think that's it. Awesome.

Redbaron Posted October 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2011 3 months, a week and a bit to go...... FWIW some of us are hoping it'll be a bit of a reunion between the original 4 London Contingent members.. My sorry self, Carew 65/66, Spirit of Town Hall are looking the goods, but not sure on Rusty/Lusty.... All welcome. From memory the plan was BKK and Patters with a side trip to an island or 2. I'll likely be heading out to Kanchanaburi for a few days R&R by the river. Can't beat the feeling of a confirmed trip... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flashermac Posted October 28, 2011 Report Share Posted October 28, 2011 Damn, that headline startled me. I thought the red shirts were returning to seize the city during the chaos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redbaron Posted October 31, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2011 Thanks gobble.... a quick calculation says this time in 101 days (assuming Jetstar's on time) we'll be in Thailand airspace coming in ..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gobbledonk Posted October 31, 2011 Report Share Posted October 31, 2011 Based on what I've seen on telly, and reading Stick's column, things should be nicely cleaned up for you post-flood by the time you arrive. This is one of the few times I wouldnt want to be in central BKK, and the vision he paints of traffic heading south is like something from the Apocalypse.
