We'll just have to drink your sponsored beer and agree that you're a great guy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bergen Posted June 21, 2014 Author Share Posted June 21, 2014 Hi guys It's a just a week until the farm meeting, and the numbers look good! Here is a possible agenda: Arrive whenever suitable, but for those who come for lunch, there will be some free food served around 13.00. Free beer available to all from arrival. We'll have a walk around our farm, possibly after lunch, but at any time if wanted. Free beer will be available until empty, and additional food, soft drinks, beer, wine and more can be bought from our restaurant, for lunch, dinner, or breakfast. We have a swimming pool if you want to cool off, and a pool table for those interested later in the evening. It is not too late to join in, so come on - the more the better!

ib1b4 Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 Hi; Bergen...... I have a question about the route from Ubon ? is the 2214 road good or do you use a different road to your place? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bergen Posted June 24, 2014 Author Share Posted June 24, 2014 Hi ib1b4 I use 3 different ways from Ubon to my place............ 1: go 24 to Det Udom, go through D U, and after 10km on 2192 turn left onto 2171 to Nam Yun, and we are on 2248, 13 km west of NM 2: 24 to Det U, turn right follow 24 and after 15 km turn left on 2214 through Nam Khun, then right onto 2248, and we are 6km ahead on the left/east hand side.......... 3: 2178 to Kantharalak, go south on 221 towards Khao Phra Viharn, and after 25 km, turn left/east onto 2248, and we are 25 km on the right hand side............

SantiSuk Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 Did get back to Thailand in time after all. But found that I am committed to take Ann to Ubon in the am for dental work. Alternative chauffeur search around the family has proved fruitless and, after 2 weeks away, she deserves a little attention from me anyway (although it has taken me 2 hours of minor sulking to arrive at that conclusion). Serves me right for not sharing plans before I left but I half-expected not to be back in time! Anyway - I hope to join y'all for dinner in the late afternoon/early evening, even if that means going light on the beers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WormFarmer Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 (edited) Bergen:- you were an excellent host for an excellent meeting, thank-you. We won't blame you for the stormy weather! Thanks are also due to our wonderful, but as yet un-met beer sponsor DaveHKT, we hope that sometime you'll manage to get to a meeting so that we can all meet you and thank you personally. It was good to see many old friends and to meet some new friends, including the intrepid couple from Bangkok who came all the way just for the meeting. Let's hope we get a volunteer for the next meeting in say three months time. WF Edited June 29, 2014 by WormFarmer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sbf Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Hi Bergen, A hearty if belated thank you for being such an excellent host. We really enjoyed ourselves, Happy to say that I spent nearly all day Monday sorting out the various plants and cuttings we got from your wife and mother in law, and I am sure they will make colourful contributions to our garden in due course. Many thanks to all. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David48 Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Dear Khun Bergen ... thanks so much for the photos ... there were some familiar faces amongst the crew. I'm sure it was a blast! I won't be back in Thailand till November(ish) ... staying till mid-Jan ... I sure hope there is another Farmers meeting during that time. So many people to meet, so much beer to drink, so many stories to swap, ... so little time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
