For those who arrives "early" on Saturday 28th, there will be served a free meal at lunch time from 13.00.........

Sadly, I'm back in the (not so wild) West so I need a stand-in please for me ... a doppelgänger.

Someone who will drink more then his share of the beer then approach strangers and engage in conversation with them, generally corvort, raise a little mischief, laugh and smile a lot.

Retire tactfully to bed once the powers of conversation has left him ...

Awake to the bright lights of the morning only to look sheepishly around his fellow merrymakers of the night before to see if any apologies were required ...

Mr Bergen ... I'm sure that you will be an excellent host.

Sounds great Jake! Looking forward to seeing you!!

I've reserved one bungalow for you and one for WF!

DaveHKT has been in contact with me, and will sponsor beer for this meeting as well as he has done for several previous meetings.

A very generous move from Dave again and we're all very grateful!

Hi Bergen,

Count me in for the meeting on 28 June and please book me a bungalow room with AC and en-suite. Not sure if there will be just me or two of us - problems getting someone to feed the various animals, not to mention feeding our daughter and a disabled relative! Cheers WF

Sounds good WF! Looking forward to seeing you again!

As suggested earlier, I will be the host of the next Isaan farmers meeting, and Saturday 28th of June is the proposed date, as it will be 3 months since the last meeting at Packdee's mushroom farm.

Our farm is located in the south of Ubon Ratchathani Province close to the border with Cambodia, and we had a good meeting here in February 2012.

Our farm was originally a fruit farm, and we still have a good variety of fruit trees, but today we also grow rubber and cassava, and have a small resort with a lush garden area. Please check out http://www.suanloongdaengfarmstay.com

We have a few rooms available at our farm stay, and there are more resorts nearby for those who want to stay the night.

Further details regarding food, drink, accommodation and activities will follow

Cheers!

I'd assume that it's because there are/were a lot of soldiers stationed around that temple on the Thai/Cambodian border.

But that's just a guess, maybe Ubon has it's own army bases but are simply spread throughout the province a bit more (Although I think it's more airforce I Ubon right? And they're not patrolling the streets?)

But busy patrolling the sky around Ubon. Even seen F-16 flying here, which I never had before. Usually F-5s.

The F-16's are based in Ubon for many many years already.

Ubon Royal Thai Air Force Base is a Royal Thai Air Force facility and is the home of Wing 21 of the RTAF 2nd Air Division. The RTAF 211sq "Eagles" fly the Northrop F-5E/F "Tiger II" fighter aircraft

Curfew was imposed in Surin on Thursday!

Yesterday we were more or less ready so we had a ‘soft soft’ opening.

Our very first customers were a couple of guys coming to the Hash Harriers convention in Pattaya. They had travelled from Issan and dropped in on the way, having read about Mobi’s on Thai Visa.

We had a good chat and they promised to come by again on their way home.

A few more trickled in as the day went on and we had to opportunity to practice our bar service skills, cooking, and most importantly – operating the computerised cash till.

There were a few hiccups but we managed OK – I think.

One guy claimed that we had charged him for too many beers, which seemed most unlikely, but anyway we gave him the benefit of the doubt.

The customers faded away after 7 pm, and by 10 p.m. we decided to call it a day on our very first day’s trading.

I am hoping for better things today – our first publicised day of trading, and of course, a weekend of EPL live football action, not forgetting the final stages of the world snooker from Sheffield, in between the live games.

Hope to see some of you there – don’t forget - 20% off all drinks – including ladies’ drinks…..

SantiSuk and I were proud to be the first ones to try out Mobi's. A nice little set up with an excellent host! We dropped by again yesterday to watch some football and snooker. Cold beer,good hot dogs, an nice company........We'll be back!

Are you from Bergen, Norway? I've got quite a few very good friends from there. Hope to visit one day!

Sounds like things are going well for you, Mobi. We'll be by shortly to have a look! Best of luck.

From Bergen indeed!! You'll not be disappointed!!

I've had some tasty ramen at Sendai Kamajinya in Suk soi 23.

I also like the food at Bourbon St. Ekkamai

AFL = definitely N-Joy Bar (I'm asuming AFL is Aussie rules). That's where the Ubon Aussies go to watch it! Louie, the Thai owner's wife of long standing is an ancient Rules-loving Oz and the managing Thai sisters have strong Oz connections.

Saturday/Sunday afternoon (can't remember which, or both) - always on.

I 100% agree with SantiSuk!! N'Joy is the place to go!

Bergen pulled out the harp, slowly people began singing'

That's a bit blur to me, but I do remember being at the same table as you and David48, amongst others in the late evening...........

I checked the price for 50kg of chlorine tablets, but found it expensive, so instead to a trip to Pool Mart in Thepprasit/Jomtien, and had a few days at the beach as well........

Good hash, great crowd. Big thanks to Little Fart and Mrs. L F for haring and hosting.
Also many thanks to Flashgit for bringing me to T3 late at night and finding and bringing my money and other stuff in the morning!!
Btw. I think microphones should be considered as standard equipment in future hashes.....

Fair chance that I shall attend. Should be my last one prior to relocating back to Oz

Hope to see you sezzo!

I am a "HH Virgin".

I live quite close to Amezon.

See you there.

As usual a great event! Thanks to Col. Packdee for hosting and teaching. Thanks to all for coming - great to catch up with "old" friends, and meeting new ones.

And also big thanks to the beer sponsors

I'll be there!

I made mistake by copying my normal one day training schedule to be our meeting agenda.

The Isaan Farmers Meeting Agenda should be:

10:00 - 13:00 Register and lunch (Tasty Ayuthaya noodle, served on demand, unlimited)

13:00 - 16:00 Trip around mushroom farm, short seminar, wild mushroom hunting game etc.

16:00 – 16:30 Move to Banrai Jomthong resort.

Those who want to know more will come back on Sunday morning to take full training for free.

But as WormFarmer said: "There is no rigid agenda, you can play it by ear when you are there."

This agenda can be amended, up to the situation.

RMKS

Beers & drinks still be unlimited (sponsored by DaveHKT and Thaivisa)

This looks better, - will probably be there around 13.00. See you all!

I'll be there with "the missus". I've booked a room at Banrai Jomthong.We will be there for lunch,meeting and dinner.Will travel to the venue with "the viking" (aka Bergen).

See you all on 29th.

Cheers

I can confirm that I'll come with Sandgroper1066 and his better looking half...................

Even mrs. Bergen has said she would like to join..................... but only time will tell............

SantiSuk: We'll be organizing our own transport..........

Dear all, I am just starting a fish farm in Saraburi and would very much like to attend the meeting with you guys. I will be there for the whole package. I would also like to sponsor with two cases of beer. It will be only me coming to the meeting. I will book a room at the resort. Looking forward to seeing you all.
