“Philosophy of science is about as useful to scientists as ornithology is to birds.” ― Richard P. Feynman

Sounds alright, may nip down....

Sounds like a great idea, not much to do in Pattaya during the day and doesn't impinge on the evening activities. In fact I think I am right in saying there are a few interesting establishments close by for a post club debrief if you are inclined ;-). Do you have a book swap facility? I have a few I wouldn't mind exchanging.

No book swap BUT if you have old books to sell we'll take a look of course.....

Yes, The Mango bar (next door) has excellent debriefing facilities!

Second hand bookshops conjure up images dark dusty and musky old shops run by be-speckled grannies.............I went there the other day and that is certainly not the case. Definitely heading over there Tuesday I see that there is a whole load of new books just arrived. I want to get in there quick before they all go.

I was in there earlier today picking up five WW2 history books that had just arrived.

Nice shop friendly people.
