mcgriffith Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 The Montri Hotel is something like 650 a night with air-con and WE TV in English. Clean, comfortable and right in the middle of everything.

We have Kiwis in Pattaya but we don't see much of them as they are out playing with their sheep. On a less serious note when we find out where the party will be on Thursday the 12th you must stop by and I will buy you a drink or 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rdrockit - your birthday your call. We can go live music - Guitarman and see Joe Cummings and his band play Tuskers - nice venue, genial host, chuckok's home away from home becuase they have the rugby on the television #1 - good fun, nice hostesses, belgian beer else do the pub crawl and go for the full set - sheesh and me having to work the next morning. Seriously guys why did you have to come up here during the week and not include a weekend? Some of us are gainfully employed and live out of town CB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we can find somewhere inappropriate for you Hey McSpicy - you're up for the late night detail after I have to go home. CB I am actualy serious about this. I can take the visitors around on one night to the three finalist venues and will happily join in on Thursday for rdrokit's birthday but I have to start work at 7am and can't do late night partying each day. I think there are plenty of other CM TV posters who have more free time than me who can help out on this one. If you are willing to help our TV visitors enjoy CM - please post a message on this thread and let them know which day/days you are available for a drink. McSpicy can organise the places and times to meet up with everyone. As a now established Bar Hound he will be well set to drag these poor guys into every low bar in town plus a few up market ones for a change of scenery. thanks CB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately we don't have the cultural sophistication of Pattaya to keep us amused with Symphony music, ball room dancing, and the up scale restaurants. Around here it is "will sir require a glass for his beer while he eats dinner?". We have several threads going on who makes the best pizza, for God's sake!! Just don't start anyone on Ribs or Burgers though or it will be flamethrowers at 15 paces within the first five posts. I am impressed that we have generated 260 posts on 18 pages and the venue hasn't even been anounced yet. When that happens we will get another 53 pages on why it is or isn't the best choice and how the reccie team are biased After that will start the we want/don't want music and eventually 12 people will actually attend, 8 of whom are from out of town. Post party will have a flood of posts on why so and so didn't attend because the plumbing blew up, the wife and girlfriend found out about the other, or there was something good on the television about stamp collecting so they couldn't attend.

I am sure that when I get the go ahead to announce the venue we will get something similar. I also miss that thread too, it was bordering on the rediculous but had a lot of fun with the passionate defence of one over the other. All we need to do was for them to start doing pizza, burgers, and ribs and it would have captured 90% of the CM traffic on Thai Visa CB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
