Samui Ex Servicemen Social Afternoons

Initially conceived by Bob Keen the distributor of the finest ales on Koh Samui was the idea of ex servicemen getting together once a month for a social afternoon.

After speaking to a few ex servicemen on the Island a get together was arranged at the Elephant & Castle in Bang Rak on Tuesday the 29th of January 2008 at 4:30 pm.

In all five people met at The Elephant & Castle, who did us proud with a fine selection of Bar Snacks. We had a discussion and decided that although it was not the greatest turn out it was a start and we should arrange to meet the last Tuesday of February, 4:30 pm at The Red Fox located on Walking Street in Lamai. We then convened at the Bar and consumed some fine Ale.

One Month later on, the 26th February at 4:30 pm, we had a turnout of eleven ex servicemen at The Red Fox Bar in Lamai, also the home of H3 on Koh Samui. The new arrivals were welcomed and introduced and it was agreed that in general this was a good idea. We were treated to some fine broth supplied by The Red Fox Bar, Thank you.

So the next get together was arranged for Tuesday the 25th March 2008 at the Full Moon Bungalows in Bang Rak. (Note this is a revised venue) There will be a presentation regarding health insurance at this get together. All ex servicemen are welcome to come along, chew the fat and drink some beer or whatever is your poison.

See you then.
