Crikey! Steve Irwin snogs ladyboy in Midnight Bar

Had he not been kebabbed by a stingray, Crocodile Hunter, Steve Irwin, might have been shocked to learn that the Midnight Bar on Soi Cowboy now features two ladyboy dancers in its line-up.
For the unwary, it's a cruel practical joke that can only backfire.
Many of the mourners at Steve Irwin's funeral copied his distinctive dress code as a mark of respect but, on Thursday night in the Midnight Bar, one idiot took things too far.
Clad in the Aussie naturalist's trademark safari shirt and khaki trousers, a blonde Irwin clone was chewing the face off one of the ladyboys - seemingly unaware that he'd determined the sex of his specimen incorrectly.
Thousands of Irwin's outraged fans will, no doubt, be hoping that the pudding-bowl haired impostor got his comeuppance later in a sordid hotel room.
Midnight's other ladyboy was straddling the lap of another luckless customer and we thought about having a word in his ear but he was sporting a preposterous linear beard that resembled a pornstar trim so we decided to leave him to his fate.
I had my own brush with a ladyboy just last night.
My regular Patpong drinking buddy sometimes becomes overfriendly when drunk so we're often joined by a motley collection of farang girls, Frenchmen and off-duty policemen plus that ubiquitous old crone who sells cigarettes.
In a careless moment of bonhomie, he foolishly smiled at a flabby, hormone-pumped ladyboy in a fru-fru party dress who looked as pale and puffy as a factory-processed chicken carcass and, inevitably, she came tottering over.
Not wishing to waste time with idle chat, she hoisted her mottled legs aloft to reveal the sweaty offering that lay between them.
Like a dead dog in the street, you just have to look and, in a tribute to the scientific curiosity that made zoologist, Steve Irwin, a household name, I'm going to report our findings.
It looked like a bullet hole but we couldn't agree on whether it more closely resembled an entry or an exit wound.
The examination was cut short when, with a parting cry of "fuck off you bullshit guy," the enraged predator stormed off into the Bangkok night.
Crikey!
