The topic of the discussion sounds interesting and I'm sure it will be well-attended.

However, for those who are unable to attend, will there be a published - or posted - summary of what the ten secrets are after the meeting?

They wouldn't be secrets if everybody knew them

Number 3 on the list will be the secret location of The Dukes on Floor 3 and a half at Maya mall, accessible only jumping up and down at the correct frequency after the lift has passed the third floor.....

If he thinks the CM Expats are going to keep his secrets, then he's in for a surprise.

What a great idea for a special promotion on our Facebook page or something. Hmm, gotta do some thinking.

(You are a member of CEC, aren't you? Only members are going to be told, you know.)

I might join up just to learn your secrets.

The CEC is getting as secretive as Skull and Bones!

One of my grandfathers was a Bonesman at Yale, but he went to his grave without telling anything.

No good looking for secrets in the Square and Dividers...nothing is straight in Chiang Mai the masons here just build by eye.

Someone please attend, pay attention, take notes and post these 10 well kept travel secrets....

Thanks!

Absolutely not! Only when you start posting detailed write-ups from your expats clubs into the Chiang Mai forum.

Note to self: ask Le Meridien Hotel not to place their usual writing paper and pens at each place setting along with the ice water. Only joking.

(I've got to admit, I have a lifetime supply of Le Meridien writing paper at home. It's great for practicing Thai writing!)

Wow Nancy! That would mean me actually attending these disparate weekend seaside coffin dodgers ensembles. I would prefer to live my increasingly sedentary expat life vicariously through the posted experiences of others. Maybe the Chiang Rai wrinklies will be more user friendly.
