Thaivisa Barbeque Party In Chiang Mai !

[Blinky Bill]

I am thinking of making it a theme party. Everyone has to wear something that gives a CLUE of who they are on the forum. Makes it a little more interesting than having a badge saying "HI my name is Crowboy". I can't wait to see Blinky Bill in his Koala suit that he wrestled off some poor kid doing a Wilderness Society fund raiser.

Do you reckon this might be a bit of a give-away Crowy? The one I got off the kid didn't fit so I had to buy this one.

Please, not a costume party based on our name or avatar. I look lousy in green tights.

I knew a girl once who went to a party impersonating a Red Back Spider. But I won't go into how she did that.

I hear that there’s to be a “Renovation Jubilation” party at The Pub on Saturday night. Grahame has put his hand into his deep pocket and found some left-overs and decided to treat one and all. (Nice guy!) Free buffet and live music in the garden (weather permitting) Old and young dinosaurs are welcome!! Maybe an opportunity for those concerned to case the joint before deciding on the venue for the tv barbeque party. .

Just a thought.

Cheers

Toon - fyi I did the reccie at the Pub and spoke (at length) with Grahame about holding the party there. Have the bungalows been completed already?

[Jai Dee]

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

***yawn***

[chanchao]

Yes, I kind of stopped reading all of this.. There is such a thing as TOO MUCH planning. And no matter where the venue, it'll be a bunch of Farang geezers sipping their beers. Exciting!

I think I like the small and informal ones the most.

CB - Not all complete, Grahame is looking to open-up sometime around end of next month, hopefully before the weather breaks.

There is such a thing as TOO MUCH planning.

Agreed. And as said before, just name the venue and be done with it. What's the big deal ??

The "big deal" is that those who are sponsoring the party have never been to Chiang Mai and are depending on the locals to find a venue suitable for between 50 - 100 people.

The local members who have undertaken this task (and done a superb job so far) also have jobs and homelives to attend to, and they cannot be expected to drop everything to attend recons everynight.

After the final 3 or 4 venues have been selected by the local members, representatives from Thai Visa will meet with the owners in order that they may seal a deal that is good for the sponsors as well as good for the members.

Then the sign up thread will be posted so we can get a good head count for catering purposes.

Then we'll have the party on the date that was selected by the local members...18 August.

Hope this explains everything again.

Roger, loud and clear.

Any clue as to who the "final 3" venues are ?

Austhaied, I hear it's down to YOUR HOUSE (don't worry, we'll be very careful with the furniture, the glassware, etc.), Loi KrowBoy's house, and the Mountain Sand Quarry located near the Burma border that the mysterious matrix88 is inquiring about....

Fine, I'll get the missus to start cleaning the house then. It should be clean by then.

Baz, Rocco and I will be arriving late in the afternoon on Monday the 9th.

Anyone who would like to tip a few can post here.

I'm not sure where we are going or when, but there's a good possibility that we will be someplace that has beer.

Will this referendum interfere with the TV barbeque?

Draft charter ready for vote

The Constitution Drafting Assembly on Friday unanimously approved an amended version of the country's new charter, moving it closer to a referendum planned for Aug 19.

Nope,

There are so many historical and culturally interesting sites to see here, we just haven't had time to post until now.

We are very excited because this morning we are going to see the factory where they make wooden frogs and this afternoon we are going to watch people make ash trays.

Please follow this thread for more exciting news to come. Rumor has it that tomorrow we will be fortunate enough to visit the durian processing facility!!!
