My camera is winging its way to you as I type BBG.

With a bit of practice between now and the event you may well just be a dark horse contender for photographer of the year........and you actually post here .

i suspect that post will win Rom's 'worst idea of the year' award!

Our Teya was happily contemplating her outfit for her upcoming birthday party last night.. 

at the moment she is deciding between a Japanese thing, or perhaps French Maid.

no doubt any sensible suggestions would be gratefully received... [probably non-sensible ones too...] er... not a Man Utd shirt  Duke....

Rom, you obviously enjoy doing this, it's your thing, and go for it. but let's keep to Ladyboy Review. The other site is just that - the other site. I don't care what happens over there. I don't put anyone on ignore, because I might miss something good sometimes, but if all I get is PY, PY, well, it does get boring.

Just my feelings. Rant over.

You got it Cobber!

I don't really want to read anything about LBP, as far as i'm concerned the best thing that happened to me in ages was Lursaluces getting me thrown off. That is something for which i'll always thank him. Indeed the notification email from Kendo that i was banned... is now the screensaver on my laptop. Turning the computer on is now a great way to start the day.

It does seem that some are still upset/angry about what happened to them at PY... me? i'm ecstatic and always will be..

i don't see why people on this site should vote for others from PY that they don't know, Lursaluces, loverboy etc. I do know them but would never vote for them on this site. I know that LS is a good photographer... but very one-track...cocks cocks cocks...  To me Bumberblee is a real photographer with much variation in subjects. LS in my opinion just posts for likes from his adherents.

re: stamps. You have to understand being an ex-pat you cant compare the budget to a 2-week millionaire. I totally understand they need to collect stamps to get an extra coffee. There are no ballons to chase right now, about having to be scrounging their next meal.

Of course i got it Seven ! i'm never sure if you are winding up or not... which is great... actually as far as i was concerned the stamps thing along with Dolly and whitney was hilarious, if only for a brief moment in time it took us away from Covid, Covid Covid.

...... i still think that you're an excellent wind-up merchant Rom! good on yer! but lets keep away from PY. This site only.

And as seven mentioned, about us people unhappily stuck in Thailand scrounging for our next meal.... please help and send us some money! 

okay...enough...time for my weekly dodgy massage now. But i do budget don't worry... i'll walk there along the beach and save the 10 baht bus fare......

True. Was PiggDogg then

nope!  PD has probably got a load of green shield stamps he's trying to flog off on e-bay...

all i can say is it could have been a well respected Jomtien resident and Rom legend who plays about on photoshop.... other than that wild horses couldn't  get the name out of me.

Oh dear. Not good. I cant understand why the call us Cheap Charlie.  Tell me it wasn't Dixon who gave you old stamps.

D.C wouldn't do anything like that!

Today has not started well.

I turned on my computer to find a definitely confirmed overnight report that 347,892 cases of Covid 19 tested positive in Antarctica yesterday. 

I could only gasp and stare agog! Where is Q-guy when you need him?  Of course I thought… the time difference is to blame. So don’t panic Q-guy, I’ll help you out.

But that is not the only thing that has made today into a disaster. After reading the report, I thought what shall I do about it all?

So I went to my local 7-11 to get a couple of coffee’s, happily totin’ a book of 7-11 stamps that a certain well-respected BM gave to me last week. Knowing that they have to be used by December 13^th, I also then thought well done Grunt, you are thinking ahead.

So, into the aforementioned mentioned establishment I strode purposely to be greeted by my usual ‘hello Mister Glunt, 2 coffees today?’

“Yes please” I replied.

My drinks were supplied and I offered the stamp book given to me by the well-respected BM, in payment.

The manager checked the total and frowned “‘Mister, 4 of these stamps are from the 7-11 promotion of 2 years ago! I cannot accept them because they are out of date”

‘oh Jeez ‘ I thought, how embarrassing, could it get any worse?

Well yes, it could and did. Wait for this……

‘Mister, not only are 4 out of date but there are also 2 stamps from Family Mart here’

I guess my street cred in these parts is now shattered. No more ‘good morning Mister ‘  when I walk in, I’ll probably get hissed at and told to wear my mask properly.

So thanks well-respected BM, don’t worry, although I’m now a broken man, I won’t reveal your identity.

That’s about it, features closer to the lens tend to appear elongated, it’s quite noticeable with noses in particular when people are chatting on camera phones.  But I think QG’s implication that the size of her feet in this shot are related to the size of her appendage holds some merit :) 

well as long as covidguy  Quietguy doesn't decide to post  a close to the lens photo of his appendage! i tried it but really need a wide angle lens for me.... honest.

I am currently watching the second season of Mafia Dolls on Netflix, it is set in Columbia and is in Spanish with English Subtitles, as in the Queen of the South series I didn't realise how many episodes there are, I have watched 10 episodes thus far so now only another FIFTY to go. 

At this rate I will not only be fluent in Spanish but will be teaching it. 

that's great Duke.. you learning Spanish that is.

As you may know i'm a Spanish speaker too, and am teaching QG in preparation for his upcoming Cuban expedition. He's a good student too. We three could start our own club! Spanish only! nobody would ever know what we were talking about...   Although in QG's case i guess it wouldn't be too hard to decipher. But sorry QG, the new Espana Club will be a C.F.Z... [covid free zone]...

Mucho buenas noches senoritas.....

Anyways, get ready for Cuba instead of worrying about us :)

i think it's more likely that Cuba is desperately worrying trying to get ready for QG....

Big feet! 

i thought that too, but in reality she hasn't... i checked last night!

i'm sure Bumberblee could explain the sizing..i.e foreground and background visualisations.

talking of Teya... it's her birthday soon Duke!

which reminds me, it will also be Annat's birthday too. unfortunately it could be somewhat doubtful that Big Trev will make it over this time. I mean with lockdown and all that, i'm not suggesting of course that he's still going out trying to jump stone walls every day and cracking ribs.

but if you can't make it Annat, in your honour we will have a pink tie hanging in the bar... you will be there in spirit!

well QG all this figure stuff is a bit boring... but in spite of all that, you know that you are my hero,or perhaps my inspiration? indeed when i grow older i want to be like you...

But anyway just to lighten things...i've written a country song for Dolly to sing. I'm a-sending it to her, hopefully she'll use on her next album 'Dolly sings Grunt'

Because of the inspiration you give QG, i only write country songs nowadays. Here's part of the song, i'm not gonna a-show it all in case any Roll and Roll chicks record it.. i don't want that. Dolly only.

My man done gone and left me

My man he gone a-walkin’

My man his name is Geoffrey

My man he done stopped talkin'

But I’ll never be fergettin’ - the last words I said to him

"Geoff when you leave me,

Walk out backwards so I think you’re coming in."

I’m a- missing you now Geoffrey

But you know it’s true

"If I could do it all over again Geoffrey, I’d do it all over you"

My man he gone and left me, left me all alone-ah

But it’s all over now

I hopes he gets Corona.

i put the last line in PD...so i'm not going off-topic.....

I wouldn't believe Government claims, but I would trust the NHS.

would you now? which NHS is that then? the old beloved NHS of yore consisting of doctors and nurses on the frontline that we all know and appreciate.

Or the new NHS run by bureaucrats, accountants and faceless men in nice suits who led to all those deaths some years back because of budget cuts in cleaning practises? do you remember that? the days when it was more dangerous to be in hospital than not to be. The days when you could actually go to the GPs surgery when you were ill... and didn't have to plan ahead and book 3 weeks in advance.

so, who runs the NHS then [this is a genuine question] is it not in actuality the government? who have to now justify their own actions re Covid lockdown etc etc.

i'd trust them as far as i could throw them. The NHS in it's original form was indeed wondrous, but the people who matter i.e the medical staff have been  overwhelmed by self-serving administrators.

There are too many examples of covid figures being grabbed out of thin air and repeated willy-nilly by others as though they are truths. Which is what governments understand... repeat a lie often enough and it will become a truth. you QG and others on here are falling into this trap [not having a pop there,  it is so]

if the NHS provide statistics they should consist of how many people had their urgent appointments and treatments for cancer or whatever cancelled because of the new fashionable covid shite.

Statistics are from the NHS and Government.

ah! the old government statistics heh? that makes them definitely accurate then? just like Tony Blair's weapons of mass destruction...?

Does he have artistic talents as well?.

darn-tootin' Woodie!

how did you recognise him? i tried so hard to disguise him...

sorry Quinn, my ploy failed!

As we all know, unusual things sometimes happen in Emmy's Bar.

I refer of course to happening's such as Annabelle night, Olga from the Volga night, the debut of Sunny's shorts night, The start of the Teya and Sunny shows.

And last night ..... yet another!

A certain well respected BM actually played a game or two of pool, this has never been known before! After watching him for a few seconds i heard Emmy mutter to herself "Mmmmm... Professional" watching him further i decided that Emmy's comment may be the polite Thai way of saying 'hustler'

He was unbeatable.. and nobody but nobody beats Teya.  It was like watching Minnesota Fats! not meaning to say that the unnamed BM looks like MF... it's just that he is the only pool player i know of. I guess 'Derbyshire slightly porkie' would be more accurate.

I of course am not going to reveal his name, but if he walks into your pool hall...beware! this man can do trick shots without even trying.

The lady says you have only a 50 in a million chance of catching Covid.  No idea how she is doing her math as just yesterday the UK had 25,000 new cases in just one day.

and how has this mystical figure of 25,000 been calculated? Guess's 'r' Us ?

 or, were 25k people tested positive yesterday? i think not. can't even blame the NGO's like you possibly can in The Phillippines or suchlike places. Pattaya Mail report by any chance?

dunno about all that PD, i just take what they give and if they don't give i ask for.  But, you're right, if they don't give they no doubt keep.

I don't want to be too controversial here..... off the specific 7-11 topic and all that... but Family Mart also do a similar promotion sometimes!!

don't ever tell me that Thailand can be boring..
