Must have missed you Dodger - I was out this afternoon - scouting for an improved parking spot .... the underground car park look tempting ..at last a real car park in Patong!!!!!

OK what about the rest - Mrs not impressed with my recce ... kept saying not allowed look there ... but farang like look everything ....

Place is definite shift to higher gear for Patong - had the feel of Singapores Suntec City - the giant mast and compass pretty impressive for photo ops ... the cinima not opening yet or the Burasari Hotel. CarreFour opens Dec 20th according to the huge new banner in Thai .. the security guard was aying about next week, but I was doubtful he knew for sure. Some shops are being fitted out and the feature fountain (musical) is yet to be completed.

Boots, a good bookshop and Starbucks are the only shops open. As Dodger was saying there is a Food Court including pizza, NY Deli, coffe shop etc at the front. I'd say they will not make it for this high season, but next high season will for sure be a big focal point for Patong.

Indochine and yet another disco are also planned.
