Isaan farmers meeting number 11 at the end of June 2014

[bergen]

As suggested earlier, I will be the host of the next Isaan farmers meeting, and Saturday 28th of June is the proposed date, as it will be 3 months since the last meeting at Packdee's mushroom farm.

Our farm is located in the south of Ubon Ratchathani Province close to the border with Cambodia, and we had a good meeting here in February 2012.

Our farm was originally a fruit farm, and we still have a good variety of fruit trees, but today we also grow rubber and cassava, and have a small resort with a lush garden area. Please check out http://www.suanloongdaengfarmstay.com

We have a few rooms available at our farm stay, and there are more resorts nearby for those who want to stay the night.

Further details regarding food, drink, accommodation and activities will follow

Cheers!

Hi Bergen,

Count me in for the meeting on 28 June and please book me a bungalow room with AC and en-suite. Not sure if there will be just me or two of us - problems getting someone to feed the various animals, not to mention feeding our daughter and a disabled relative! Cheers WF

Sadly, I'm back in the (not so wild) West so I need a stand-in please for me ... a doppelgänger.

Someone who will drink more then his share of the beer then approach strangers and engage in conversation with them, generally corvort, raise a little mischief, laugh and smile a lot.

Retire tactfully to bed once the powers of conversation has left him ...

Awake to the bright lights of the morning only to look sheepishly around his fellow merrymakers of the night before to see if any apologies were required ...

Mr Bergen ... I'm sure that you will be an excellent host.

HI Bergen,

Thanks so much for holding the Isaan Farmers Meeting No. 11.

I very much regret that I will be over in England at that time attending a niece's wedding, as well as doing my annual round of grandchildren in both England and the US.

I so enjoyed the last one which you held about 2 years ago. As I say, I sadly I won't be with you but highly recommend others, who can, to go and enjoy their time with you.

All the best,

AA1.

Hi Bergen,

Pupay & I will be coming for the Isaan Farmers' Meeting. Sorry I replied so late that we cannot stay at your place. I will contact Ratchawadee Resort. I will bring a couple cases of Leo as I neglected to do so for the last get-together at Pakdee's.

Is Route 24 the best way coming from the west? We will be coming from Nakhon Nayok via Prachinburi.

We look forward to seeing everyone from last meeting & some new faces.

Cheers,

Dave
