..now whats that joke again...english cook... italian organiser...german humour...
Andy, just offer free drinks to those who attend; there will be a stampede of attendees.
or let us get Dodger to commit to a firm date and then we organize it around Dodger's availability as he needs to come from afar.
I have been trying to meet Dodger since I moved here in September 2022
So, I believe that this eventual meeting will be like trying to herd cats
you lot couldn't organise a root in a brothel
Perhaps he should be renamed the Scarlet Pimpernel, bkkmfj2648? ;)
I've heard numerous expressions, which convey that meaning, mr giggles, but that particular one seems to have passed me by. I looked it up and see that it's Australian slang.
Let it all be in the hands of Dodger!
In that case, pretty sure according to the doctrine of SGT it's now time for everyone to gather around, and start bitching and moaning to high heaven that Dodger is just a liar, doesn't actually exist, doesn't live in Thailand, and is just a figment of his own imagination.
...or a piss up in a brewery...
I don’t check this every day. Did meet one guy that doesn’t come here anymore because of Ukraine
OK...let's see if we can't get this thing kick-started.
How about meeting up next Wednesday (6th) at Divarium in Jomtien Complex at 8:00 PM???
I know that Keith mentioned he'd be in town on the 6th, and Andy seems to prefer Divarium.
If this doesn't work for someone we can always change it - but at least it's another start.
What do you think?
sounds good with me Dodger :yahoo_mini:
Works for me, Dodger!
Thanks. I arrive fairly late, straight from UK. Staying at Copa, recommended by Vinapu!
Well unlike the weirdos who promised to come but didn't, I went to the announced meeting and had a marvellous night with the elite from here! Oh the champagne was flowing, boys running around halfnaked to please the desires of us boardmembers who had shown up and treated us like royalty. Great memories were made that evening that will last a lifetime. It was even better than the last meeting in Memories music bar in Sunee.
Now we know who the true heroes of this board are and who keep their word to attend when promised. The next meeting will be in Bamboos bar as I understand it.
Are you sure you didn’t just fall asleep & dream this?
“Champagne flowing” - with people who cross tge road to save 10B on a beer?
I feel like asshole of the week, but Andy and bkkmfj I won't be able to make it on the 6th.
I waited too long to arrange the hotel (Agate) and found out that it's completely booked the evening of the 6th. I prefer Agate (quite w/swimming pool, etc.) but then tried Venue and found that it is also booked. I should have known better - this still being on the back-slopes of high season.
Note that when I visit JC (or anywhere else on the scene) I book at least one nights lodging to avoid driving back to Bang Saray after a night of drinking. I mentioned Dorothy's to Jai and he just gave me one of those twisted facial expressions. Much too noisy for either of our tastes.
I hesitate booking a later date not knowing who will be around.
Sorry for this screwup on my part and hopefully we can connect sometime on a later date.
Oh Dodger,
Don't give up so easily.
According to the official Jomtien Supertown Complex website there are 10 hotels in the complex.
Can you try to get a room in any of these for 1 night? :
Poseidon
Siam House
Double Shot rooms
Dorothy's rooms
The Venue Residence
Fu House
Dolce Vita rooms
East Suites
Zing Resort
Agate

This is now turning into the Sawatdee equivalent of Gallipoli.
Unfortunately Agate is the only place with guest parking. This is one reason why Jai and I always stay at Agate - apart from the fact that the rooms are very comfy and quiet...friendly staff...swimming, and within easy stumbling distance to the bars.
Thanks for trying to help but I'll just have to wait until rooms are available. I'll be sure to post when I get a reservation.
How long are you going to be in town?
Hi Dodger,
I live here as a retiree since September 2022.
The owner of Gaybutton suggested that I meet you back in September 2022 and we chatted back and forth about meeting but it never happened.
So, I was hoping to use this new occasion as an opportunity to finally meet you.
Instead of accommodating my schedule - I would suggest to accommodate the other guys who expressed interest to meet as they may be here on vacation and have less ability to modify meeting dates. If I am free when you get a reservation at The Agate - I will be willing to join all of you.
I wish I had 2 bedrooms in my 1 bedroom condo in View Talay 5 - as it has a HUGE abundance of free parking and we have a pool and from my balcony you can see the Jomtien Supertown Complex ==> as I would then host you and Jai (for free) and all of your above mentioned requirements could be met. But unfortunately, I only have 1 bedroom. It takes me about 7 to 8 minutes to walk to the Divarium - so it would still be reasonable for you and Jai.
Can't we all just agree on waiting until Cdnmatt returns to Pattaya for the next meet-up (which will be the third if I count correctly)? A meeting without him would be pointless.
or we could move this meeting to Bang Saray - it's not Gallipoli - but at least Bang Saray is:
only a 300 baht Bolt taxi ride away - one way - if we all shared a Bolt taxi together then the cost would be negligible,
a place that I have never seen and I heard that it is nice and worth seeing,
a way to ensure Dodger's participation as we could meet underneath Dodger's condo - to enhance the probability of realizing this meeting,
we would not need to get a hotel - because when we finish the meeting we can take another Bolt taxi back to the Jomtien Supertown Complex to continue our evening together or call it a night and go home to sleep.
A first Sawatdee group trip - and then afterwards we could write a joint trip report for the readership who could not attend our journey to Bang Saray :yes:
I love Bang Saray...it's home...but there are no Boy Bars here - so Jomtien Complex is a much better choice for a gaggle of boy-loving farang to sit around socializing.
Jai and I will be zooming around the bay sometime in the next few weeks when Agate becomes available and I'll certainly let you know when the date is confirmed.
P.S. Your choice of VT # 5 for your residence was an excellent one...and perfect location.
My turn to apologise, as I have now had to cancel my trip.
It was a bad idea from the beginning, and I apologize for bringing this topic back to life. I promise not to do that anymore. In case someone wants to accuse me personally, I'll be at the Divarium at 20:00 for a drink. I'll be wearing a "chili" t-shirt.
It wasn't a bad idea at all and there's no need to apologize to anyone.
Making plans like this are always difficult because of everyone's fluid schedules...personal preferences,...likes and dislikes, etc., and I'm sure we can pull something off in the future.
The next time I toss my name in the hat I'll be sure I can make it on the date scheduled ahead of time, versus having to make last-minute changes. If anyone needs to apologize it would be me.
Cheers
very witty giggles
So with so many members dropping out and apologizing, will this Sawatdee Bang Saray excursion take place or not?
so how did that meeting go?
:clapping: :beee: :bo:
Something about: Couldn't organise a piss-up in a brewery
....or a fuck in Pattaya...
typical...
Just need to hire a tourbus and then I'm sure it will quickly fill up with Sawatdee members wanting to go to this Bang Saray meetup. If we can time it with cdnmatts arrival in Pattaya he can do a standup comedy show on the bus. That will keep us entertained during the trip.
I hope the guy who posted originally and started all of this is still around. Because logically he should pay for the bus.
nah...free bus will not do it...throw in some buffet style free food and they will come running down the soi ...will need at least 2 buses
Meat loaf.
