Why do you need to? Why not use this one? Anything you need to be answered about the UK. We can do it here.

Maybe a TROLL? What do ya think Jai Dee? You can spot them.

Jockstar,

Thank you for your help, but at the moment I live in England with my Thai wife, Reading to be precise, and wanted to know about any groups of Thai and Farang get togethers in or around London, also where the nearest Thai Wat is to my Location.

By the way I am not a troll

Wat Buddhapadipa, Calonne Road, Wimbledon, SW19..

Will be more than enough Thais there for Songkran.

Temple has it's own website, but it needs updating.

I beleive they are celebrating on the 10th of April, but I am not 100% sure on this. If you are in the Uk may be worth giving them a ring.

Here are Thai temples, but with Western monks, a good alternative. I met a lot of people who did not like the Wat in Wimbledon. Oh well.., you can please some of the people all the time, or all the people some of the time... but you can't...

Here's a new one that is making a good effort

http://www.geocities.com/dimcuk2003/

from the bbc

http://www.buddhacommunity.org/UK%20groups.htm

This link is to a good set of temples in uk, where the abbot does all nesletters/announcements etc in Thai and English, and also runs some courses in Thai language if you are interested. I met the abbot and he is a good sort, and is the only one I ever heard of who makes a genuine effort to bridge the Thai and English cultures.

Otherwise head to the nearest Thai restaurant, and chat to them there...
