G'day Junkies, What the heck has happened to this thread in the last week?! Anyways... can't remember who started the conversation, but this is for the Londoners who were up for meeting this Friday at Rodizio Rico (Angel/Islington)...

Argh, I'd love to come but my back is still killing me. I just went out to Starbucks for a coffee and came back in agony. I hope this won't be the first and the last meet-up cos I'd love to meet you guys face to face. Hope you don't mind a chick joining the boys someday, men are more my crowd anyways. I don't mind strip clubs either

BastardYou are enjoying the single & glamorous life. With the family and the kids it is literally impossible to travel that far. But good news, I managed to get a permission to go to Cancun this year in August with three mates

Also...might be a good opportunity to open up one of those secret offshore accounts there

Ohhhhhh, Seychelles...I'm jealous. It's one of my all-time favorite destinations...been there at least 6 times. Which island(s) are you going to stay at? Mahe's nice, but stay on the Anse Takamaka side of the island...better beaches. The botanical garden is well worth a visit as are the tea plantations...nice drive through the "mountains". Praslin has one of the best beaches on the planet...Anse Lazio won Conde Nast's "best beaches of the world" competition numerous times. If you visit Praslin, also check out the "coco de mer" park. They have...
Great, I see you explored the shjit out of it. 
Yes, we stay in Mahe. We plan to rent a car and explore the Mahe first (tea platnation and botanical, I hear all the island is as botanical garden
). Then 2-3 day visit of Praslin andLa Digue. Yeah, yesterday was reading about the coco-ass typed coconuts
hehehe

perfect!!! 
I was in Thailand for 2.5mo last year in between jobs...love the food, people and nature there. I also picked up a bit of Thai, so at least I can ask for the bathroom and order drinks/food in their language.

Daamn man, 6x?!
I tend to either stay at the Banyan Tree or one of the guesthouses. I prefer the guesthouses tbh because you get to know the locals.
Another great place to stay is Chez Batista on Anse Takamaka. Amazing beach...you can snorkel with sea turtles right off the beach. Be careful when swimming around the left most corner of the beach right after bad weather, I almost got dragged out to sea one time...and I'm a good swimmer (certified Dive Master).
EDIT: Whatever you do, do NOT stay at the Meridien!! Mostly because it's where older European/US women go for a week to hang out with male hookers they import from Kenya. I went there for lunch and felt really awkward.
