Don't "know" her - but she is quite cute. Name is 'Mya' rhymes with beer. Short shoulder length Bob Cut hair. English not that bad - but only had a few words with her.

Will check her out soon. Went with a 'natural' one from this bar quite a while ago - can't remember her name but I recall her English OK

First heard this (if I'm right) on the Greek Island of Ios long time ago. I'd chummed up with an Irish guy - long ginger hair and beard - plus glass eye. Music came on and seems he spotted two guys dancing together. He turns to me and says - "Oi tink we're in a Fairies Parlour" It was ages before I heard the full record. Frank Zappa - Bobby Brown,. ?

On a sidebar I just watched a short program about the Greek island Hydra some time ago & it was mentioned that Leonard still owns a house there since the late'50s & if I understood correctly it is occupied by his former wife.... Suzanne. Where have I heard that name.. Had holiday on Hydra with GF in the late 70's. Fairly barren island. Water has to be brought in from the mainland, stony beaches, Policeman ordered (waving gun) girls to cover their (naked) breasts up whilst trying to sunbathe on the craggy rocks. Overrun by cats. Counted about 50 round the tables in cafe. In later years it became very trendy place. Believe Jagger also had house there for a while. Sort of place "Laughing Len" would love. !

It's "2Donnas" - next to the bar with all the bottles. Donna used to throw really good parties. She's still there.

Good to know it's not "The Vinyl Countdown".

Many years ago I stayed awhile on Koh Chang - just a few guest houses there and no road - but a number of beach bars. Staggering back one night after a rake of Mekong Whiskey I felt stirrings in the trouser department. I sprinted into the nearest beach bar and headed for the toilet. Phew - just in time to abandon the jeans and squat over the open bog. Much relief. Then I took stock and realised there was - as expected no bog paper. Peering outside there I spotted a line of freshly washed clothes - no doubt belonging to the hairy arsed backpackers who were flopping at this beach shack. As is well known backpackers arrive with a $50 note and a clean shirt - and it's two weeks before they change either. 'Nuff said. Swiped and wiped with a crisp fresh shirt. Sorted.

Not checked in there for a while. "Roadhouse" has a couple of new LB's but still very quiet - except the other night when Sally was holding court - outstanding.
-
"Luk/Nuk" didn't go to Jimmy's Bar but now working at the middle bar on the front row of three on Rhompo. "Jam" still at Corner House but she tells me she now has "husband" and is off the market. ! Nearby is 'Mint Bar" with 2 or 3 LB's including Dao late of "Sally/Roadhouse" bar. (pic). Still a couple at "Piss Bar" and one spotted at "You Twat (2) Bar. !!!!!

I was with my chum - he on his first trip to Thailand. I had decided against going to Pi Pi (too busy) and against Khao Lak (lots of building work).We booked in a holiday village on Kho Lanta. Christmas night we had a great time at a beach bar. i was getting on well with a bargirl and my chum wandered back to the cabin. The GG - I never knew her name was just looking for "lomance" as she said, having just run away from cruel Thai husband. The bar closed and she dragged a mattress out and we slept (!) all night on the beach. Next morning woken by the crack of dawn I said farewell and promised to see her that night. I headed back to the cabin where my chum was still asleep. I grabbed my cozzie and a book and went down to the beach. This was about 8.30. I setled down to read with my back against a bank of sand that was on the edge of the village. After a while decided it was time for a swim. Looked up and thought "F**k me" "Where's the sea gone"? Return to reading. Looked up a while later and saw a rapidly approaching wave - not huge. "Hello - Surfs Up". I thought. The wave rushed in maybe 3 foot high and broke at my feet. Watched a while as the sea receeded and then it came back bigger and faster. It overturned fishing boats and the locals were soon there wondering the same as me no doubt. I ran to our cabin and roused my chum saying "Something is happening out here - check it out" Back to the sea and this time the wave came full tilt - maybe only 5 foot high but enough to set everyone dashing thro' the village. It wrecked cabins overturned 'fridges and anything in its path. There was a slope in the road leading up to the main road (rough red earth) and the wave stopped short. After a while we waded (foolish maybe) back to our cabin - flooded and retrieved our belongings. Back to the main road wondering what to do next. A Thai girl from the local pharmacy pulled up in a truck and told us to get in as another wave was expected. She drove us up to a high headland near another holiday complex. There must have been a couple of hundred of us all camped out. Nobody seemed to know what had happened. (Another friend of mine was out on the sea birdwatching and had to be rescued by the Thai Navy - tho' out there was the safest place - he knew what had happened). So we settled down for the night. within the first half hour the local Thais had set up a free food stall, brought sheets and blankets and soon after a beer bar. Next morning still not much news what had happened. We eventually got a ride back to the main town. The roads were packed with people trying to get away from the island. Some were saying the ferry was not crossing. I managed to sort out a private car to take us to the small jetty and thankfully soon on board and over to the mainland. We had tickets for the overnight train to Bangkok and it wasn't till we reached there we knew the full worldwide story. On Khao Lanta I believe, about 12 people had died nearly all local fishermen. I hope the girl I met was safe. Every Boxing Day I always go down to a quiet stretch of beach wherever I am in Thailand and have a quiet moment. Thanks to Buddah (?) and thanks to the Thai people who were amazing in the way they took care of us.

Think you'll find that the're on Soi Honey used for Long Distance calls. Operated by very helpful girls.

I missed this. Thought the only musician that had same birthday as me (today) was the late Dave Brubeck. I remember the first time I heard "Tutti Frutti" WTF Superb compared to Brubeck's elevator music.

The girl with the sign is "Luk" or "Nuk" - tho' I'm not one to gossip but - she was at my birthday party on the beach a couple of years ago and with a whisper from the other LB's there - she admitted she was not averse to a spot of being tied up and spanked.! We now refer to her as Mis Whiplash. No - I've not been there. ! She works at The Candy Loca Bar in the right hand lane halfway up. However I hear she's moving to Jimmy's Den in the left lane. The LB in the stripey dress is Anna. Freelance but at the moment found in Janes Bar in the centre row. Listen for the music from the bar - usually Tom Jones circa 1970's

Not to be confused with the shop on Threpassit Road called "Woody 'R' Us"
-
Yeah - thought you would get that. Chums of mine saw Chip Taylor in Concert and said he was pretty good.

. . . and whilst we're in a musical vein . . Chip Taylor - singer songwriter - "Wild Thing (Troggs) "Angel of the Morning" - who is his better known brother and neice. ? (actors). (This may have been posted before).

Bet it's not Tom Waits "Closing Time" either, Yes Guy Clarke I like. Saw him at small concert venue many years ago (UK) along with Peter Rowan and the late Townes Van Zandt and John Stewart. Superb

- you mean there was someone else- ? Had she got something going on behind His Bobnesses back ? Surely not. ! Unless you want her full name Sara Dylan nee Lowndes (spelling) ?
