The wife as we are talking about Irishrover. If he was the biological parent then it would be his daughter, not stepdaughter.

#9:
Gorshar went back to the US with his family and is living in California now. Not sure if he has sold the Two Dragons or leased it.
Tools4Fools ist still very active here.

Moderator RomanB confirmed Steve252's accident and death in a post some years ago but I don't know from where he got the information.

#13:
billp is one of the people who just stop posting after being very active with several thousand posts. I hope he is still well and alive between Vancouver, Berlin and Bangkok.

Others just seem to lose interest slowly like Chanchao who can be seen only once month or so.

Thanks for the Gorshar update. I am heading to Siem Reap soon and was going to stop in. I wont bother now. (Stopping in that is).

I assume Tezza, Kanaga, Prof Fart (and their many aliases) got banned. Tezza still posts on the Tavelfish forums and I'd wager Farty and Kanaga are stirring things up on Thai Visa.

I just did a search on Thai visa. Couldn't see anyone called farty but kananga was there. His posts were a mix of advice, information and humorous anecdotes

great link Captain_Bob.
westwood: back around 2004 Thai branch mods. were RomanB and sometimes Zedd_at_LP.
I remember because they were a big help with the tsunami recovery efforts after Dec. 26, 2004.

Somebodyelse last heard of on a wee island in the Bandas last month.
Rumours of her marriage to Tezza are unfounded.

#23, I changed user names way back in 2002 but the only one I recognize from that 2003 link is RomanB.

westwood: I had some PM'S from zedd_at_LP around the time of the tsunami recovery, maybe RomanB was on a short vac.?
