Orange Pub, looks to be an Irish themed pub

What's that, orange and irish positively together in one sentence?

Ha, ha, good one stevenl.

Aw, want to get into politics here?

[KarenBravo]

It's more about geography.

It's more about geography.

I think that is quite a political statement , but yes, agree with you.

Orange Pub, looks to be an Irish themed pub going in across from Davinci. Guinness drafts ! Whoa, Rawai going a little upscale, may have to abstain from a few Archers outside my minimart for a draft Guinnesss.

In the old Dons Mall construction going on for what will be a somewhat of a Yank stop "American food" restaurant, at first the way the bar was looking I thought it was going to be a girlie bar, but no, have met the owner, nice guy. He's definitely the opposite of what my Aussie pal calls me, "the cranky Yank".

Where is this exactly? I thought the Dom's Mall property has been turned into shop-houses and/or apartments and has been for a while. Is this in one of the shophouses?

I drove past both of these places today. The new place going in Don's Mall has signage up now, it's called the Stone Crab and NomadJoe, it takes up two of the shophouses fronting the road. The other mentioned Orange is in a 3 storey orange and black building and it looked like they are trying to make it nice. Besides Guiness, they had a Kilkenney sign.

I've been told by other bar-owners that Kilkenny is no longer available. If it is, this place will have a customer.

[NomadJoe]

Not TV but my internet in general has slowed to about 100kbps for an hour or so. AIS 3G. Is it TV or all internet?

I was trying to avoid the water truck coming towards me as he was passing a motorbike and clearly on my side of the road. Next time I'll take the head on hit so I can get the name right!
