Time For The Pun Pun to Say Good-Bye

[Nup Nup]

 I am sad to say that after 26 years meeting and greeting the greatest of local and foreign folks to our Guest House & Restaurant, its time to say good bye .  Believe me its inside a feeling that in my long life, I have never have felt before.  But with the covid thing and some serious health problems that make it necessary for me to go to the hospital every other day for treatment, the choice seems to have been made for me.

I would like to take a moment to say a great big THANK YOU to all those of you reading this and who may have come to the Pun Pun over the years.

Believe me its very hard to go through things and be reminded of so many fine folks and things we may have talked, joked, and or wondered about, over the years.  

The hospital visits do make it harder to do, but if there are any out there who would like to come by for a final visit, please do so.

With the hospital visits every other day meaning we have to close for those few hours, it does make it somewhat problem but the closed hours are usually in the morning, so please take that into consideration.

Also we have a lot of guest house/restaurant type of equipment along with more than a thousand paperback books all of which I will be selling at some very low prices, if you or someone you know may be interested,  I would appreciate talking to you.

So to all of you and my much loved Chiang Mai, I offer my most heartbreaking farewell.

John

Wish you all the best Gonzo. You have been a stalwart of the Expat community.

All the best Gonzo.

   Long time CM expats, like MacArthur's old soldiers, never die, "...they just fade away."
