Hope I did this right. Yes this sounds good. I have never been to Phuket. Any lodging reasonable that can be suggested by the locals there?

seems everyone lives in Chalong all of a sudden, can i come wioth a friend? two places please!

ohoh cheers.

Sounds great - Pencil us in (2 pax). Will confirm later as we might be away then.

i know you would RATHER be away, given you havent had a holiday for so long, but it would be great to meet you and the old man chantal....

Very jealous that we can't come. I love that pub bizarre though it is to see it on Phuket. Serves excellent food too. Never mind, we'll make it to Phuket again before June and then I'll try to arrange a mini meet and greet, just for myself .

Hello Phuketeers,

We had so much fun at the Pattaya party, good people, food, and beer, that my wife and I would like to come.

That's 2, but we have yet to sort out travel and lodging. Any suggestions re either? If we can not sort it out, I will post our regrets.

Thanks

kdf + one

as someone mentioned earlier, take a look on any of the websites offering accommodation in phuket. there are many to choose from.

Madame Slackula and I will be there.

yep, count me in and my daughter in

BBQ ribs, mmmm hope there american style :-)

On behalf of Phuket Immigration - PIV - We look forward to meeting you all.

There will be 10 of us.

With your permission, I shall extend the invitation to the Inspector of Immigration in Phuket and his staff.

I know they will all be very pleased to meet everyone and answer your questions directly.

The Green Man - what a great venue for homesick expat brits

I'll try and come with my 5 month pregnant wife and our 18 month old son, but I'll need to arrange a lift from Thalang before committing myself....my old motorbike is out of the question .

count me & missus and new baby - so some extra small ribs as well please

Sign me up - 2 pax.

Can anyone confirm that there will actually be FREE BEER? It sounds to good to be true, like we are being lured into a trap!

Hello again Phuketeers,

I would appreciate a little travel guide sort of help. The only reference I have found so far called Chalong Bay a muddy beach and unsuitable for swimming, no offense I certainly don't consider Pattaya Bay a carefree swimming locale.

Because of the distance and costs involved, we will be making this a spring fling vacation and hope to stay a while on a nice beach(prefer snorkeling to gogo bars), and even get back to Phi Phi for a few days. Any suggestions? Maybe even stay near the Green Man the evening of and travel to another locale. Any help greatly appreciated.

its easy enough to stay away from the gogo bars as they are usually concentrated in a small locale. chalong is a shallow bay, so when the tide goes out its not so good for swimming.

try kata or karon.

Thank for the inviting as a new member, just arrived in Phuket and we will come to know the other faces behind Thaivisa and friends ( 2 persons please )

C U Soon....

Thanks for the invite guys. I'd be more than happy to come, if someone would like to pay for my flight from Blighty . I'll even bring the missus.

PM the flight itinerary to me once booked.

Guemlum

Will try to come, most likely alone......since I dont trust myself driving 2 hours to go back home, after unlimited local beer, suggestions of affordable accomodation as close as possible to the Green Man would be highly appreciated. Cheers, Kees.

Great to see the positive responses so far!

We are on track to beat the number we had in Pattaya (62)...keep 'em coming!

If we get to 63, we'll throw in some slow cooked, smoked pork fillets to celebrate!!!!

Re: Hotels

Can recommend several comfortable accomodations that are in the B1500 - 2000 range.

Friendship Beach nearby on Chalong Bay <http://friendshipbeach.com/>

Rawai Beach Resort in Rawai <http://www.rawaibeachresort.com/>

KN Guesthouse in Patong <http://www.knphuket.com>

Yeh count me in! Need to get flights etc sorted soon as. Bucky how you gonna get that smoking contraption over to Phuket? Or do you have one in every TV location? Ribs, if anyone need to know, are more than excellent, this from formerly non-rib eater! Can't wait for the pork fillets too!!!

PS definitely better than american ribs(in my opinion anyway) only ribs I've ever eaten and gone back for 2nds and 3rds!!! Hopefully see ya'll there with the hubby.
