I won’t be posting for 2 weeks as on Saturday I am getting married followed by 2 weeks honeymoon.
Apologies that I didn’t invite all you lot to the wedding….. but at least 3 people coming to the happy event have commented at least once on this blog….. scary thought!
Just for fun here is a bit of the hen night…

These were cards that the “hen” used to play “snap” with. Apparently a real stripper wasn’t appropriate.
Yep - there is 1 year’s worth of credibility down the drain in just one image!
If you are wondering what someone who works in the travel industry does for a travel holiday….. well I am travelling with Thailand Uncovered who are, as it happens, a client. What is worrying is that neither my wife “to be” nor I have any idea what we are going to do. I know there is a tailor-made itinerary planned - but its going to be a bit like the old “mystery tours” from years gone back.
See you all in a couple of weeks!

Dear Alex “Buffed Up” Bainbridge,
There will be dozens of females across the travel industry wiping a tear from their eye on Saturday.
It is the kind of news that sends lovestruck women into fits of despair.
Another hunk bites the dust. Or something…
Anyway, judging by the pictures, if all fails at Tourcms in the coming months, at least you’ll have the fall-back of a lucrative modelling career. Indeed, you might be able to liven up the Travel Technology Show next year with an impromptu performance, a la Chippendales.
Good luck with the big day. Give Travolution’s best regards to Mrs Musings. Does the poor woman really know what she is letting herself in for?
Sawat-dee khab (as they say in Thailand).
Congrats Alex! I thought the middle picture was you@@
Hope you have a great Honeymoon and of course theres plenty of honey..preplanned itinerary knowing whats going on when you land in a strange land in a strange place,where to go, whats on, who’s said what about that restaurant or where the locals go etc. Come on you should have known where to go its that company called triptrup or was it trippitytriptrip.com! But really, I hope you have a great adventure together. ;-D
Bainbridge for Bond!
Congratulations Alex - enjoy the honeymoon
Well done Alex!
Dream on Halina, those days are long gone
See you at the wedding.
You wanted to go to Thailand !!?!? - but we’ve got Butlins Skegness all booked for you!
No, spoke to our Bangkok office today, and your mystery tour is all ready for you.
We may reveal a little more at the wedding - not as much as you in those pics mind, though those abs may come in useful for the Thai boxing course you’re doing
Both of you have a great day on Saturday! Best wishes from all of us here.
Congrats Alex
A simple Happy Marriage wished to you…
And like I use to say to all brides and grooms that leve us when they have celebrated their first honeymoon night with us: “Just see to it that you follow my good example with more than 35 yrs of marriage behind the belt (ahum love goes through my belly:-)”
Congratulations Alex!
Congrats Alex & Halina, and hello to the both of you! Long time no speak!
Hey thanks everyone!
Back now…… !
Cheers. Alex
