Correct. I still have a few copies from 2005. By 2007 it had become Spice!, still run by Phil Graham. I dealt with Phil personally because he published a few articles of mine. Funnily enough, I saw him walking past with other farangs in Jomtien Complex about a week ago, first time I'd seen him in a long time, though we didn't speak (and he probably wouldn't remember me).

Perhaps we could have a periodic "where are they now?" segment. Where, for example, is Dreaded Ned?

Did you miss the scoop? Surfcrest gave an ex cathedra pronouncement some time ago along the lines of this Monty Python sketch - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4vuW6tQ0218 (in which you will see an actual Colonel appears) - and there is no reason to doubt Surfcrest now is there? In the same pronouncement he stated that I am the poster formerly known as boygeenyus which gave great amusement to both of us

If you don't already know the answer to both of those, francois, you're not even trying

I'm always a bit surprised by how poor an ear for the 'voice' (its tone, rhythms, vocabulary, stylistic quirks etc) of other posters so many on a board like this have. I often scratch my head when someone confidently outs a poster as beachlover or whoever when they don't sound a bit like him to me. In the example above, yes, we can confidently place kommentariat in the lineage of The Colonel, homintern, Copper Pheel and many others, but boygeenyus? - another combination of cleverness, cussedness and ridicule altogether. Not the same person.

I was just doing my part to contribute to the futile patter on the forum.
