Love Bar - The Future

Got some news for u guys who know me & Love Bar

GEESPOT will soon be retiring from Patong!!!

I have pretty much 99% sold Love Bar to a close friend in Patong. I will let him reveal himself by separate post. You need not worry this guy is as lunatic as me so the party in Soi Tiger will continue 7 days a week 52 weeks a year

After a hectic year and many up & downs, my GF/Wife has persuaded me to go and live in Khon Kaen with her and set up a 7/11 style mini market there. There's nothing like that within 40km's and lots of farangs staying around so reckon its a good opportunity

Ive been given a passport to come back to Patong for holidays as often as I like, so should be once per month for 3-4 day benders

Everything should be complete by 20th Sep & I will be around for another 10 days as one of my best mates is coming from Glasgow for a holiday

regards G

ps party at love bar tonight, its the wife's birthdays, free food, Geespot Punch & my speciality vodka jelly

Well that's a BIG surprise G......one that l bet your doctor will approve of.....as it sounds like a lot more healthy lifestyle !

I will have to find a Tillac from Khon Kaen so l have an excuse to go visit you.

Good work slipping in the "bender" clause into the contract.

Hope it works out well for you mate.....and hope to see you at Christmas one way or another.

Take Care

Huuuu... I was hoping to get the chance to visit your bar and have a beer with you on my comming tour in November It seems like I'll be doing so perhaps with the new owner since he/she is or will become a member. In any case eventhou we have never met, I hope we can bump into each other someday and have a beer. I wish you the best of luck and I hope this become a great and exciting chapter in your life. Cheers!

Jesus, It wont be the same on my next tour without a few sessions with you G, As you know I think your bar or x-bar should I say Is a great place to have a few too many drinks and a great time, And that was mostly down to you and your big glasweigen personality, You will be sorely missed around the place for sure, And it will not be the same there without you

Hope everything works out for you and the misses in your new venture because your a real cool guy who deserves it even if you are a bastard , I will hopefully see you around crimbo if your about or if your not around, Maybe Ill make a side trip to khon kaen while im there just to keep your liver up too speed of course

All the best mate

Cool

All the best G, perhaps you should call you new little shop the "the 69" (or "6/9") as "7/11" is so boring and also in memory of the "Love Bar"

I was hoping to have a few sherbets with you when next over in November, but it sounds like you'll be gone by then.

Don't forget to keep in touch with a few posts here from time to time, perhaps you can start a new thread about living in the sticks in LOS and post a few tips etc ? It might happen to a few more of us in time

Good luck
Diz

Well G, this is probably as far from what i was expecting as can be, i have been waiting for the other news you were planning my last trip, oh well i too will perhaps manage to get a day off now and again as you were often the instigator of many an afternoon sesh.
will see you for a few next week.
