    So you are Tawi Tawi :) I've been waiting for 10 years to see you join up here :)

    I see you are still on your globetrotting travels :)

    Normally the forum gets paranoid when someone turns up and seems too familiar but it if it really is you Tawi, then welcome.

    For those in the forum not in the know, although I am sure a good few will be aware of him, this is a bit like having Lord Flashheart drop in at Blackadder's wedding and swashbuckle his way off with Bob :D

    Adventures on the high seas with many a tale of derring-do and lucky escapes :D

    I have a photographer friend who went to Nepal about 12 years ago, pretty sure he visited Bhutan as well, he came back with some fantastic photographs of the place, it is somewhere I would love to see although I am not fit enough to go climbing up the sides of mountains even ones that have safe paths :)

    I wasn't aware of that monestry but my god that is impressive, from the sounds of it you were climbing 'above' there?

    I don't think he's being belligerent Jim, I think he stumbled over this forum after a long long time, maybe did a google search for Tawi Tawi and a couple of other keywords and your post popped up or maybe he was just searching for references to himself on this forum, from memory the original Tawi Tawi handle got changed to Tawi2 not sure exactly when but I think it was at the same time as the dot post incident :) (in the other place)

    It's an old thread that has been dug up by his recent post as a reply to your old post where you thought you had spotted him.

    Tigers nest is Bhutans most iconic monastery if you see pics of the country its usually a white cluster of buildings built into a cliff,thats tigers nest,i climbed the ridge above as there was another temple and met a filipina who works in Singapore as an accountant,Bhutan isn't the cheapest of places to visit so to meet a pinay there was different,i met two groups of filipinos in Nepal,all working in the middle-east who had fancied visiting Kathmandu.
    Nope,I remember Happy Freds,a den of vice and iniquity the same as the Why Not,I never visited Happy Freds though I did visit the Why Not around 20-25 years ago for a breakfast,back then it was rumoured to be THE place in town for pay-for-play ladies :greedy:

    Dumaguete has changed, No "pay- for-play- ladies" Cebu or Manila for the likes of that kind of thing. My apologies for getting your ID mixed up with the guy with all the gals around him :)

    Did you get to Chernobyl? I only ask as I just watched an Amazon documentary called Chernobyl’s Cafe, quite interesting and from the perspective of a tourist.
