Title: Martin of The Ferang Connection,Surin fame (or Infamy)
Post by: dave the dude on July 09, 2009, 01:14:00 PM
Although this is not strictly Buriram related, I thought I'd post it for 2 reasons :-
1) Some posters may know Martin who is a sponsor of ThaiVisa website.
2) He is a regular reader of the site and maybe some 'dual members' may want to post a message to him, on them.

Quote
The BFG,Martin,Mountain or any of the many other names he has been called, goes of to Bangkok Int Hospital in Korat today.
I have OK'd this with him before posting and I would like to wish him all the best of luck and hope he will be back in the Ferang Connection soon (otherwise who else can take the piss out of us expats & tourists).

When I moved here 3 years ago, He was the first&only English speaker, I got to know! (Thank F@ck, I moved on!!!  :D   (Joke))

I am not going to go over old ground as to the build up to this situation, but I was pleased to see he still had his typical English gruff humour about him when we spoke, a short while ago.

He insited he won't be going to the same place as Micheal Jackson, although the thought of Martin dressing up in blazer&shorts would not be an attractive sight.

ANYONE UP FOR A WELCOME BACK PARTY?????
 
David & Sri


Thanks

Dave

Hi bums

Just met the Michelin Man A.K.A. BFG & Martin in the petrol station near to home.

One hurdle down, Visa now sorted and he can concentrate on getting better&eating cos there is no such thing as a thin BFG.

Come on Martin, sort it out, mate
