Steak, do try to join us play in Da Nang on 17th-20th June.

Thanks for the invite. I'll go if I'm free and brush up on my technique before then

Phew........the soldiers finally get a well deserved rest after 3D and 3N of non-stop action.
Except for the first day golf, the other two golf games were played under alcohol laden bodies and exhausted equipment. It is a miracle that we managed to get this far without more further damage. But the damages were all telling on the golf courses; shorter drives of 200 -210 m and shortened focus and concentration. Actually, was contemplating of going for 1 more round at Twin Doves tomorrow....but body says otherwise.
So it will be pure R&R tomorrow.



Some pics of 1st day action coming up, provided I can access to email here.
Somehow there is a block on emails in this country.

Btw, only pics of jungle warfare will be posted here. For pics of FIBUA street battles, those will be shared in person only hor.
And for sure, The FIBUA pics are better.

Other than that, we were desparately hounding the locals for asahi beer here but to no avail.
Had to settle for Singleton whiskey for the past 2 nights, though in the company of 'hostile' company who happened to excel in the games of 5-10, frog jump etc.....Man, I swear those are spies in disguise waiting to get into out heads.

The hostile forces hae been in secret training and despite many attempts by the Allied Forces to penetrate the network, it has been futile...like you have personally experienced....

Ha nor.....the penetration mission failed big time when we cannot even get past the 1st line of defence of finger guessing, 5-10, frog jump etc......

hiaz, need to re-group in Singapore, get grandmaster TSS as my 2nd shifu for night training and beef up my skills.

From the selected pics of the Desert Course, am sure you all understand why I am not so inclined towards it.

And that hole 9 bunker.....pwah! The ladder is there for a reason.
Yes! The freakin bunker is that deep.

Commercial break begins now till next reporting of TwinDoves (with pics).
Time to go out into the dangerous world outside and engage the enemies in city fighting.

Can I join in the action?

Gentlemen, this is serious biz we talking about here.
We need to gather the right personnel to launch another invasion against this mighty flowery place.
Right equipment, brave hearts and strong minds are needed here.
All manner of skills needed here. Sniper, bomber intel, recon etc...
Tentative move out is July.
So gentlemen, are you with me!?

Seem you have photoshop your caddy ! ! i dont believe (same as recent recruit pic saga)

Asahi: How's ur sidekick?? No news about him?? No photos too?? (or is his photos in ur private collection?)

Pls fill me in on ur July mission.

Asahi, i gather you must get tss, chipmunk, ccc, master and agumon to form your "dirty dozen". Saw somewhere that Shamusan wants to join the action.

Or is it "seven samurai"?

for selfish reason, i wish you guys come on 17-20 June, play few rounds at hcmc, conquer the night battles with help of french resistance aka winston, then take biz class flight to DA Nang and play the monty links courses by the beautiful beach for free.

Tempted?

Also guys, try to plan earlier, Asahi has some un-finished business to settle...You guys will know what it is when he gets back to Singapore and update you all....

OT abit, Bro Winston, seems you are too busy to renew your Avatar,...hehehehee

yah. this one seems like not many people like. I think general preference is for the fair fair c cup half ball type

hmm........just when you think daytime is safer than night over here.
Hell no!!!! Booby traps are still plentiful in the daylight, even for a place as simple as their local market. Hiaz.....it's tough not to be clear minded here, even in the morning.

Some pics of earlier 'healthy' insertion into friendly zones to follow soon.....

The rate is now $100 to 1620000 VND.



@4dtoto, think Winston's pics are more 'delicious' lah....haha

Please take note that Fridays through Sndays the exchange rates will be slighltly lower due to the closure of currency trading markets. They do this so as to ensure that they do not lose any profit.
