I haven't seen the diamond emoji for some time. I wonder if Grindr got wise to it?

What made you think that?

That's right!

In my experience. Bridge is often played for money, you win points, after all. However, the amounts involved are small!

Food there is generally good, I think. You can have Thai food as well. I am fond of the Thai fishcakes. Good selection of beers. Guido is an active host, too much so for some members, I know, but keeps the place moving. Normally pretty full.

But your blogs are really useful!

Qatar, as we know, is a leading light in human rights,especially in the LBGT area. All a bit of a joke, really.

Do you think it's a visual problem, or a memory problem?

There is usually a political angle in these things, or an interruption in the flow of brown envelopes!

Was there any space for brown envelopes?

I think I first heard that comment about 6 years ago. I didn't know it was you!

I wonder if this is a serious attempt? I gather that powers that be are rather fed up with Thaksin, and that Prawit, 'General watches', is furious with being sidelined.

Thanks. Yes, I remember reading about that. Crazy!

Honestly, a private poker game! Haven't the police got better things to do? More brown envelopes to collect etc? I assume someone in the poker game had upset someone higher up!

Very un-Japanese behaviour, I must say. Although, I had a poor experience in their Tokyo place. I just went there, on spec, and the host turned out to be the only boy available. Their website had a lot of boys. He was adequate, no more. The room was not great either. Mind you, this was a long time ago.

Without assistance?

Better late than never, if it actually happens!

On my last trip to The USA, Las Vegas, I had a female officer. She stamped my passport, not so usual nowadays. I said, 'oh you stamped my passport'. She said yes, I said, 'I'll come again' she laughed! Years ago,now, my first trip to Australia, it was the old system. The immigration man noted that I was a lawyer, and asked what I was here for. I said we were suing a Bank. He said 'good luck mate'!

That would be good!

Useful tip! I intend to apply early for my Cambodian visa. Also, now, for Cambodia, there is another electronic permit you need, but I believe this can only be filled in 7 days before arrival. I don't understand why they need both, since the information is duplicated. Perhaps is a Chinese requirement!

Thanks!

Thanks indeed!

Presumably taken on a Box Brownie!

Always the optimist!
