Samui Ex Servicemen Get Together October 2012

Unfortunately we did not hold a Samui Ex Servicemens get together last month due to the untimely passing of one of our hosts.

However the show must go on and this month we will be visiting a new guest venue proposed by Mick Grover.

This month we will be visiting The Relax Bar and Restaurant in Choeng Mon on Tuesday the 2nd October from 4:30 pm onwards. This small bar/restaurant is located on the left side of the road as you leave Choeng Mon in the direction of Chaweng about 10 metres after the Samujana sign and just before the 7Eleven on the right hand side of the road. It has a small sign so keep your eyes peeled.





Dave the host is a member of the local Hash

Hope you can make it on Tuesday
