New Year Countdown

[AjarnP]

A friend was asking if ther eis any special way of bringing in the new year in CR.

I said nothing aprt from the usual hotel rip-offs and a loud noise in the night market.

Over to you chaps. You know anything happening anywhere particularly local flavour woudl be good.

I think it was Dean Martin that called New Years Eve "Amateurs Night"!

The last couple of years here I have been to private festivities.

Maybe there is some nice restaurants on the river that arrange something special?

I will celebrate the New Year in Koh Ngai.

I remember two years ago, myself and my wife, we went to Bo's Place for new years eve.

At the beginning it was nice and there were a lot of people, but later the owner, at that time Erqwin or something, became more and more drunk, he was insulting ladies, and was even touching them, he didnt care that their husbands were standing next to them.

It became an absolute disaster, when he became even more drunk.

He totaly F***** up the countdown, when 4 seconds before midnight he turned down the T.V and played some kind of porn music.

Most people paid immediatly, and some never returned to this place.

My wife and i left, our evening was ruined, and there were no other places to go for us.

Some time later i returned to this place, but this guy was pissed as can be, i even saw him sleep once behind his own bar, when people tried to pay, they could not because he was the only one in charge.

Later i heard that he went broke and left Thailand, back to his own country, i think Holland.

I hope the new owner of Bo's Place does a better job. People like this shouldnt stay in our beautifull country.

See you all in December.

What a nice slandering story rather than a tip on what to do on New Year. My plan is to check in at some resort for a day or two, I don't know where but it could be anywhere which kind of raises the odds a bit.
