Anyone here been to Thailand? I have, once or twice or thrice.
Where'd you go? What'd you do? Anyone know anything about Muay Thai?

I have never heard of Muay Thai though.
The north is definitely my favourite part of the country, all those mountains and jungles and little towns in the middle of nowhere.
BongBudda: What's up with the Thai government? Are you sure you're not getting them confused with Mynamar (Burma)?
Voodoo: HELL YEAH! Chaing Mai all the way, baby. Where abouts were you in the city? Did you ever go to Lanna? Surely you saw some fights at Gawilla Stadium? You must have ened up in Bubbles a few times? Have you ever run up Doi Duthep? I HAVE. 15km all up hill, 1 hour 15 minutes. ROCK ON! :cool:
And the Thai prime minister is crooked as hell....
Solid, have you ever thought about doing it over in Thailand? I thoroughly recommend it.
Certainly Mynmar's government is worse (though its worse than virtually everywhere) but Thailands government is involved in very nasty things.
His new 'war on drugs' runs what basically amounts of death squads with thousands of people gunned down for being suspected drug users or dealers. There is nothing like justice and the police quite commonly just kill people. Oh and his suppression of Muslims in the south of the country is nothing short of horrid.
I was living south of Mahidol road for a while then got a house a bit further in, near the train station. Been up Doi Duthep the once - just about knackered me!
Bubbles - was that the club a little behind the night market? If so, then yep, I ended up there on a few occasions...:D
No my grandad does not have a young Thai wife but if he wanted one there are plenty on offer. He went out originally to teach english but has since retired out there due to poor health and more relaxing lifestyle.
