RIP Aidan.

He started Paddy's Bar in Buriram and had a talent with etched/engraved pub mirrors/signs etc.

A colourful character, troubled at times, and not a nice way to go.

Where did this happen? I think I knew him. Pretty sure he did some work for me a few years ago.

As I understand it, it happened on the 24 road between Prakhonchai and Nong Rong - not far from where he lived.
