Just What Pattaya Really Needs,

a new beer bar complex! but you never know it just might take off, it is situated near the top of Soi 5 in Jomtien, if you turn right as you leave immigration, then turn right again it will be on your left after about 50 meters, at least the builders seem to be making a reasonable job of it with what appears to be a toilet on each bar, it is just opposite the new market, so go to immigration and after that let the girlfriend have a look around the clothes shops there whilst you have a cool one! one bar appears to already be up and running, this is the view from the new road the runs parallel to Jomtien beach road,
then it was time for breakfast/late lunch, by now we have tried every restaurant we come to along Jomtien beach road, the next one is Yorkies, just past the police box on the right Yorkies is on the left,
the view towards Sattahip,
and towards Pattaya,
also if you fancy a snack on the move there are always these mobile bar-b-q's roving around,
the view from the restaurant looking towards a very hazy sea,
in the corner a small water feature,
Diana had a Thai dish with rice and a fried egg on top,
and for me a Indian chicken curry, 230 baht complete, strange really, Yorkies is really a British restaurant that makes it's own sausages and pies, as a matter of fact I bought two Scotch eggs whilst there, but we eat a Thai and Indian dish, so next time it will be an English breakfast for me,
during the afternoon the nameless one called round for a tea and a chat, just as he was leaving Mark called in, after he left Diana tried a new dish chili con carne, delicious it was to!
then we settled down to watch Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End, I have really enjoyed the others in the series and this one was no exception, I particularly liked the scene where the ship seemed to be stranded in a sea of salt crystals, then the rocks came to life,
and what better way to round off the evening than a couple of episodes of New Tricks? we are now onto the third series, Diana really loves it, so much so that she can now sing the theme tune, 'It's alright' she especially likes the chorus, particularly the second line of it!
'it's alright, it's OK,
it doesn't really matter if your old and grey'
and then to bed.
