For those that know her the trouble and strife is celebrating her birthday this Friday and she's asked me to have a small do in the bar for her. There will be a bit of grub and music by The Blues Machine, Rock Machine and of course Lam Morrison plus hopefully a few well known Thai musicians who are in town from BKK. Fun starts at 930pm and all are welcome. :)

These kids have been around for a few years now, luckily they don't come near me now, probably used to getting told to eff off.

Hows it been farmed out to the brits? The performers are american (apart from Lam Morrison) and they will be playing american music, only the bar is brit owned.

1: Michael Jackson did not have a heart attack. Apparently, he went to LA children's hospital and had a stroke. 2: New reports indicate Michael Jackson had an allergic reaction after eating some 12 year old nuts. 3: Michael Jackson's dying wish was to have his ashes scattered through a bowl of cornflakes, just so he could go through the ar5e of little children one last time..... 4: Conspiracy theory is that he was hit by... no, he was struck by..... a smooth criminal 5: Cause of death: a. sunshine? b. moonlight? c. good times? d. boogie?

Conspiracy theory is that he was hit by... no, he was struck by..... a smooth criminal 5: Cause of death: a. sunshine? b. moonlight? c. good times? d. boogie?

To which the second replies, "well I don't know about you but I reckon the ferris wheel". Farrah Fawcett arrives at the pearly gates and Saint Peter Grants her one wish, so she thinks for a minute and says "I wish all the children in the world to be safe". The next day Micheal

apparently Michael Jackson is not going to be buried or cremated but recycled into shopping bags so he can remain white, plastic and dangerous for kids to play with........ or Michael wants his ashes put into an etchasketch so kids can still lay wit him..... ok i'll get me coat.i
