I am going to start this thread in order wish @jonsie all the very best.
Tomorrow he flies to Thailand for good. A new life for him. He has promised to stay in touch with us all.
I hope so because he is such a well respected, knowledgeable member of the forum and has been helping people on here for years. His sense of humour is unique....
I have never met him but feel I he is the greatest friend. He helped and supported me when I crept onto this forum, technophobically challenged, a few years ago. (I am still 'challenged' but hey...much better than I was) 
Anyway... I am not writing this as any type of eulogy or epitaph. He is very much alive and kicking. I just feel it's important to wish him well in his new life.
Bon Voyage Steve.

My ears are burning 555
Last nights heaven has been replaced with today's shopping hell. Left her to it while I wait in the bar....

Many google explanations for 555. I can confirm this is the official one
The Thai pronunciation for number 5 is 'HA'(stressed and loud sound), so when you see five-five-five that means we are laughing out loud HA-HA-HA.
As in Thai language, we have 44 alphabets plus 22 vowels and 5 tones. To form a single word you need to combine alphabet+vowel+tone...no wonder that Thai keyboard has so many letters flying around.
So anything else you may find is a figment of your imagination
