daiwill60 Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Can any one suggest where a Welsh falang might find somewhere for a suitable get together for St David's day celebrations. I am in Rayong and know there are a few of us down hereabouts, but not made contact with any of them yet. Any suggestions in Bangkok or local vicinity welcomed . Good health to all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's always one with the oh so original old jibes, as per usual daiwill60 I wouldn`t bother making any inquiries here, as you will mostly receive nonsense responses, and braindead remarks from the clowns. Best to take sinom`s advice and do some online searches yourself. Good luck and hope you enjoy St David's day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scully Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 (edited) Go to a swimming pool dress the ladies in cloaks and tall black hats and drink Penderyn Single Malt Welsh Whisky. Sorry last post of the night too many beers and too little sleep. Oh I could invite my ex dragon for extra authenticity?. It would be like Rhyl sun center.
