Thursday 17
Still not feeling the greatest today, and hang around the room till Jimslim and Ciobah drop by around 2.15 to see if I want to go for something to eat. I don’t have much of an appetite, but I join them for a walk. They stop of at Subway at the Buakhao end of Diana for a roll. Food out of the way, it’s down towards Beach road, and onwards to the end of Soi 6 before turning and heading back to the PBG where we shoot the breeze and arrange to meet for food later.
I meet DK at 9 pm in Chow Soy, but soon after the dinner, he leaves to go to Soi 6 and I hang around to have a beer and wait for Jimslim and Ciobha. The two boys finally arrive, and we decide to head to La Bamba, where Ciobha seems to be preoccupied with
Nancy recently.
L
B is pretty quiet, and we get talking to a guy who turns out to be Etgohm, a charming fellow from Ballymena via Canada from what I recall. Nok informs us that some guy was in the previous evening, and gave them a tip big enough to buy some new furniture, a generous chap no doubt about it. Kliome and
Coco join us, and we leave for Koyo7, leaving Et to the mercy of the La Bamba girls.
In Koyo, the 5 of us have a beer each. Luckily we check bin after one drink, and when we check the price we are shcoked to see the beer is now 115 Baht, an outrageous increase we all agree. (Note: It is is now back to its original cheaper price)
After the shock of Koyo’s we need a reassuring drink, and so
Linda’s is where we make a final stand before going our separate ways and home.
We laugh because it is true.
