  1. One bar owner told me, that the bars will be closed this Saturday at 6pm, until Sunday night at 6pm and the same next weekend. So would be a good idea to plan ahead and stock up on what you want for Saturday night.
  2. No special checks in BKK as they turned down the lights and if you glowed in the dark then they stop you....lol
  3. Leo i just arrived April 1st on that same flight and it was not that crowed. Good luck in Narita and don't drink the water.....lol
  4. I remember when i was 10 years old in 1957, i watched the Sputnik Satellite launched by Russia, fly overhead in the night sky. It was the most amazing thing i have ever seen at that time.
  5. WOW there are some real cute girls working there...
  6. Looked like a real fun party....
  7. If GlynRhedyn see's this, he will be getting a woodie.........
  8. That was all i was trying to say. I spent 20 months in Vietnam and never saw any myself.
  9. You are right you didn't list any websites and that was my mistake, so i will bow to your obvious superior intelligence.
  10. You might want to actually read the first reference you posted and that might give you some more information on British involvement. If you still have trouble, then you might read this from the same website you listed.
  11. I never said that the British sent units there, all i said was that 22 British soldiers lost their lives there. During the period of US involvement, Britain provided some support. They built the American Air bases in Thailand. Special Forces were also involved on active service. The most highly decorated "American" in the Vietnam War was British. Units were sent from Britain to Fort Dix. At Fort Dix they "resigned from the British Army and re-enlisted in the US Army". After completing their tour in Vietnam, the returning "GI's" were discharged from US Forces and re-enlisted in the British Army on their return to the UK. This allowed Harold Wilson, (the British Prime Minister), to stand up in Parliament and announce "No British Troops are in Vietnam". Twenty two British Servicemen were killed in action in Vietnam. Britain did not help the Americans as such because the British public were against it, this was undoubtedly the worst Anglo-American friendship that any British Prime minister and American President has ever had.
  12. I am from the USA and currently living in Washington State. Actually Jamie, England did play a small part in the Vietnam War and had 22 British soldiers lose their lives.
  13. Jamie did come home from his last visit to Patts with an extra dress, i wonder who he brought it back for..
