- My favourite off Walking Street bar, U Too Bar (2nd Road, opp. Alcazar) is hosting a party for it's girls on Tuesday, July 15th. It will probably mean all the girls will be in the bar on that one night so head along there for the girls and the food.
- With bars more than likely closed on Thursday and Friday next week expect Wednesday night to be a busy one for the bars. Mongers will be stocking up with company for the long weekend and their numbers could well be swelled with the boys from Bangkok. Barf early to avoid disappointment !!!!!!!
- Windmill Club, Soi Diamond, is holding a Mamasun Party on Wednesday July 16th
- The bars seemed low on staff on Friday night even though mongers appeared to be in short supply. Is the navy around and had they been in and cleaned up? Don't know the answer but for sure somebody had hoovered up many of the stars in the bars.
- In a good number of bars we went in on Friday, the girls looked really hungry and I'm not complaining. By hungry I mean lots of eye contact and smiles. I watched when other guys came in the bars and they got the same treatment. I suspect girls are not making their quotas so they are not being too choosy. Ah but it's a good time to be a baby booming monger!!!
- TAT organizes Amazing Pattaya Sale 2008 - The Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT), in collaboration with Pattaya City and the private sector, opened the Amazing Pattaya Sale 2008, at The Avenue Shopping Mall, Pattaya 2nd Road, on July 10, 2008. The sale is due to last for 3 months. TAT has great expectations for the event.

- Anti-smoking hysteria reaches new heights - No, not in Thailand but in Britain. The following is from an article by Neil Clark in the Guardian:
Complaints to the BBC after Top Gear presenters lit up pipes containing herbal tobacco in a light-hearted RAF parody scene. A pub stormed by riot police after a customer refused to put out a cigarette. A threatening letter and a �75 fine sent by a local council to a woman who had dropped a cigarette butt.
Thought the current wave of anti-smoking hysteria sweeping Britain couldn't get any sillier? Then think again. At the BMA's annual conference earlier this week, Dr Vivienne Nathanson, the organisation's head of science and ethics, urged film censors to give "pro-smoking" films an 18 certificate. If Dr Nathanson and the BMA get their way - and in the present tobaccophobic climate it is a reasonable bet that they will - a classic children's film such as 101 Dalmatians would need an 18 certificate all on account of Cruella de Vil's penchant for puffing on her cigarette holder.
How different things were 30 or 40 years ago. Back then, even the contestants on University Challenge were allowed to smoke. In Joan Bakewell's famous Late Night Line Up interview with Harold Pinter, both interviewer and interviewee smoked freely; today they'd both face fines and censure.
No one is disputing that smoking constitutes a health risk. But a society that gets into more of a strop over fictional characters puffing on pipes, cigars and cigarette holders than people blasting each other to kingdom come, is surely one which has lost all sense of perspective.
- I thought the Pattaya Ghost had a nice line in vitriol but the blogger at The World is Boldly Going Nowhere gives him a run for his money. The following Daily Bollocks post is a fine example of Boldly's work:
Brown has true grit. Allegedly.
Prime Minister Gordon Brown "is a man of true grit and determination who should not be under-estimated", Labour's deputy leader Harriet Harman has said.
Prime Minister? I don't remember ever voting for that vapid wanker. He has no mandate. He's not the Prime Minister as far as I'm concerned, and the sooner he fucks off the better.
As for underestimating him, I'm not sure that is possible. Gordo is now the most widely hated individual since Hitler, and even he has fans. There are now kiddie fiddlers in jail with more of a fan-base than Gordon. It's long past time that the shambling cunt fucked right off and got out of everyone's lives. Tosser.

- I mentioned a few days ago that Hollywood appears to be running out of original plots and quality endings. Then on Thursday, Times Online published a top 20 list of best movie endings ever. The most recent movie to make the list was Memento made in 2000. Nothing since then and I'm not surprised.
