Sorry to disappoint but see post 103 above ! :-p

I was feeling like ABC World News anchor, you just had to ruin everything!!

I hear that there's news that one of the police posts operating one of the roadblocks at the bottom of the mountain may be running low on sticky rice for their lunch, has anyone any news or an update on this breaking story perhaps ?

Well I'm sorry but if you're going to set yourself up as a 24 hour rolling news service to the gay community you're going to have to get your act together, we cant be doing with any of this shoddy second rate late news, it's cutting edge headlines and facts we need not 2 minute old news ya know ! But you seem like a nice enough chap, if you want to come back next week we can maybe try you out presenting the weather desk or something .....

Sarcasm and subtlety is wasted on this crowd - everything has to be literal and spelt out. They can't even appreciate regular porn - it has to be geronto porn.

Lonelywombat has spent literally minutes every day updating the world about what every major news source on Earth has been reporting, and ridicule is all you got? Some people, huh!!

I heard the gov't wants to turn the cave into a tourist attraction..really??

Any online source for this rumour?

from the Bangkok Post 4 July:

Karuna Dechatiwong, TAT director at the Chiang Rai office, said TAT will work with local authorities and the private sector to promote the cave and other attractive nearby venues as it anticipates a number of tourists will flock to the area in the near future.

Disaster cave to be next tourist attraction - Bangkok Post

at last count almost 100 Post readers had joined the online lambasting of TAT for this announcement just after the boys had been located - Amazing Thailand indeed! Though I suppose it says as much about tourists as it does about the TAT!

lol.

What about irony, sglad?

I broke the news, after seeing it on CNN, ABC, BBC, BBC, CCB, DDC, CCD and others.

Mr Nurisguy, you are simply sour loser.

If Lonelywombat didn't already have a signed exclusive with the football team, I'd nominate myself for Pullizer for this story!!

Retrospectively we can say there turned out to be more flooding in this board by Ol' Wombles than there was in the cave. However folks of his age like to feel useful so....
