[Snowy]

Awesome G! Really interesting day.

[Giles]

Construction somewhere in the jungle…

And back across the river to Bangkok…

"Big Sea 101"  - Love it

[spitfiredealer]

I am off to bangkok for a stag do in feb. I bet i see lots of bikes of a different kind…

[Giles]

I doubt I'd even want to shake your hand for at least a week after you got back….

[spitfiredealer]

no you wouldn't

[Giles]

Sat down for dinner with H and the crew tonight…

G "So what do you want to do tomorrow"
H "Go bike ride"

A phone call later, we have it sorted.  Thai/English/Japanese* speaking guide, will take us to the flower market, a floating market and a "locals only restaurant"........Roll on 10:00

• That would be Matthew our guide from yesterday.  Who is Thai, multilingual, gay and delightful.....

[Giles]

If I don't take the girls here before we leave, my life will not be worth living…..

Well, 1 out of 3 aint bad.  We did not do the floating market or have lunch.  We did some brilliant other stuff though....

[Seul]

Holy cow @ that sea of Snoopies!..

[Giles]

On the BTS on the way to bike HQ…

And even 3 up, they manage to overtake Paula….

[Giles]

Snack stop…

[Giles]

Chinese Bhuddist temple…

And just to confirm to those fecking weirdo Germans that we have to keep banning (well actually it's the same arsehole), yes I am a rampant neo nazi and fascist pig….Oh, wait the swastika is one of the oldest symbols in the world......

[Seul]

[Chris]

I like that she wears Docs with the dress.

[rocket]

yeah the rebel youth of today…

[Giles]

Nothing quite prepares me for the madness that is the Pronto Denim Carnival.  We took 108 pairs of PDC3 jeans with us, 2.5 hours after the doors opened, we had 2 pairs left….

[Anesthetist]

That's intense. They definitely take denim collecting up a notch. I really like the pictures of the temple and all of the history/ culture involved.
Not to derail but I also see you have joined the club of the accused. I was added when I didn't respond to a PM fast enough…. Definitely notable nazi behavior.

[Giles]

I have a lot of photos to post (and I mean a lot). Will start doing so tomorrow.

If I said that Thailand has the most incredibly intense denim culture anywhere on earth, I would only start to describe it.

There is simply nowhere like this on the planet.
