Gosh Up to Day 38


I know I have been lackadaisical in keeping the blog up to date but I am rather busy you know!! Actually it is rather nice to get complaints about my tawdriness it show people are reading. Thank you for all your comments which are greatly appereciated. And while I am speaking to you keep up the good work at clicking on those ads you have paid for a labourer for a week by your hearty clicking!
So what's been going on? Well plenty is the answer. The new split level deck is now complete and it is better than the original design so it is true what they say about there being opportunity in every f**k up! The ladies toilets are well underway and the pillars at the front of the building are all finished. Just the arches to finish off now and then I can plant up some foliage.
The vast majority of you will be delighted to learn that the waterfall won and the base wall and pool are now in place. Just waiting for the elephant frieze to arrive now and we can finish it off.
In other bits I have met a very cool sound engineer who is goig to sort out all the music equipment, speakers and the like but he has buggered off back to England for Christmas so the music system will have to wait until the first week of January. Until then well have to make do with an iPod or something.
Lots of other bits and pieces going on including boring paperwork stuff and buying all those little things that actually make a bar work but too dull to discuss here.
The other bit of news is that i have been invited to join the board of the Chiang Mai Expats Club as Vice President, an honour which I have, of course, accepted but do they know what they've let themself in for?
Anyway I must push on so I'll leave you with an arial photo taken from a United States DEA unmanned drone (don't ask) and there are some more pics here
