Wednesday Special is served from 12 noon till 11pm,
and from 12 noon to 2 pm we guarantee ‘Quick Service’
in that all three courses will be served within 45 minutes, including presentation
of your bill.
So, if you only

quick and polite service will provide it, ‘in and out in 45 minutes’,
and all for 185 Baht.

else after you have cleared both skewers). All Specials are served from
12 noon to 11 pm and the same

the whole meal, including bill, within 45 minutes.

See you at the bar, Kim
Rugby was fine, Cricket was great, and Reading F. C. March On
Plenty of rugby last weekend, although not much quality rugby to be honest. This weekend is the break for all the players, so perhaps they can get their collective heads together and come up with some new tactics and some new scripts. The cricket was certainly earth shattering, and all credit must go to our good friend Ian Dickson who took the text messages squarely on the jaw and responded in kind. Thanks from Nova Table to all the messages received this week especially Lisa Lurve, Dave Foden and good old Scud. As you can see Kimo and Nid Price have returned home to Wales, the photo actually makes you feel cold just looking at it. Kimo and Nid you are sorely missed around Nova Table hurry back to the warmth of the table. The same goes for Tony and Iris Ritchie, who we will all hopefully be seeing soon.
Gez, Jeremy and Niall decide that England could win another cricket game, but would rather the rugby team get some form of tactics first.
Paul Montgomery, Landlord Kim, and Ian Harrington (Lady Di) discuss the possibility of an England win at cricket.
Nova Table is enthralled as Pattaya Panthers Captain
Mr. Eoin Quirke lays down the law to new Panther Kieran about the value of
whether or not to turn up to the first training session, looking on are Debbie
Lightley, Simon Philbrook (Debbie's lucky fiancé), The Landlord looking
down and wondering what all this training is about, David Garred of the Dusit
Fitness resort who does know the odd thing about training, well he tells us
he does. The blaze of flowing hair is the lovely Shelley Quirke.
As you can see we have made some small changes to the Specials menu. The Wednesday Steak and Mushroom Pie is an absolute better. Next week we will also have completely revamped our main menu, there are always plenty of changes for the better at Jameson's.
Denis attempts to do the old poke your eye out trick as Ian Harrington Jameson's Deputy, Trainee, Assistant, Junior Manager looks on in glee.
Saturday night early at Nova Table with Keiran, Ken Sly, who had come to town to give his ruling on the laws of Rugby Union, Landlord Kim Fletcher, The Font of All Knowledge (Mr. Graham MacDonald), and Mr. Steel Sid Silk in his usual colorful shirt to go along with his colorful stories.
Landlord Kim Fletcher, sits with David Garred and Simon Quigley at Nova Table, giving endorsements to Heineken beer, it's all work and no play you know.
Helping to keep the bar and Nova Table properly propped up are all the good folk Motorbike Shaun, DVD Paul (Spooks one of the best British T.V. series ever), Bob and Wit, Manchester United's own the superfit Denis and Lek, Welsh Graham, Graham, Joules, Colin Duggan and my mate Angie, Mark Coombes and Jeap, Happy 50th Birthday regards to John Pritchard, Fini, Flying Frog Patrick, Fredi from Bruno's, special regards to Geoff Evans and Dai Coe. Lee Hunter and Lee Hunter Senior. Watch out this weekend for the Root of All Evil Malcolm Clare, who could be throwing a surprise birthday party for himself sometime very soon. Mike Franklin has been his usual charming self and has helped us immeasurably in proofing our menu and completely re-writing our Specials letter which starts off this diary. I was quite proud of what I wrote until Mike got his hands on it and made it so much more legible. Always good fun to have the Young in the bar Stuart, Moo, Sophie, and James. I think John Hagan will have to at least give this week's notification letter a ten? Great to see the Bryant's everybody except Rick who was off in England but it was great to see Harpic, Jake, Paige, and Abby. Jacqueline and Ken, Louise from Oliver Twist's. New Zealand Patrick who kept a stiff upper lip over the cricket and is now looking forward to the World Cup. This Friday should also see the arrival of Linus Stuart which should give us a good fun week. Of course no week would be complete at the moment without a visit from the Daly's Jed, Linda, Stuart, and Ning always guaranteed to cause mass laughter throughout the bar, a delight to have in town looking after their little Stewpot. Hello to Peter Woolston.
See the rest of you at the bar, Kim, Rony, and Moo.
Front Row Seats.
The MBMG Squad taking some well earned time off to watch some rugby, this
did not last long as the standard of the game determinate rapidly, and within
30 minutes were all watching Liverpool football team in the England shirt

the way nature intended things Debbie) and The Font of All Knowledge Graham
MacDonald.
Keiran does his no hands beer drinking trick again this time without spilling

It's Saturday night and time for some serious rugby watching seen leading
the pack was of course Eoin and Shelley Quirke with Ken Sly, Mickey Price,
Paul Crouch, David Garred, and Mark Coombes.
Moo Young keeps all the beautiful girls at Jameson's happy.
Landlord Kim Fletcher and The Font of All Knowledge Graham MacDonald celebrate
the news of the latest Reading Football Club result, this latest win puts
Reading in with a chance of avoiding relegation. Never have a team been relegated
with 43 points, but of course there is always a first time. This weekend we
all have the joys of Reading playing Manchester United in The F.A. Cup. (Well
we have to watch something no rugby this weekend)
Colin Duggan and gang watch in disbelief as the game slips away from Wales.
The wine is out, that is The World of Wines our new wine supplier, run by
Richard Waller and David (Buster) Williamson. Pictured here are Richard Waller,
The Landlord Kim Fletcher, The Font of All Knowledge Graham MacDonald, and
Richard’s lovely wife Maggie. As you can see plenty of The World of
wines products is being put to the proper use on Nova Table.

Paul Crouch when the game is over.
It is Sunday afternoon and it's Peebles time, a great Sunday with Sam and
the gang including Sam's Mum and Dad. Sam always knows how to throw a good
party.
Chris and family enjoy Sunday lunch at Jameson's, do not forget that that
there is no charge for children to eat the Carvery, as long as the parents
are eating.
Colin Duggan's Table had been moved to the front row
for the Ireland vs. France game.
Richard Hardy with his lovely wife after watching England's
latest cricket victory. Richard was the mainstay of one of the great British
Progressive/Rock bands 'Gryphon' who have been reviewed many times by Mott
The Dog which can be looked up by the links on this page or go direct to www.mott-the-dog.com
Johnnie Live Thailand's most famous hairdresser has
a game of all fall down with the staff, as you can see nobody had much confidence
as a wide area had been cleared ready for the imminent collapse of the tower.
Johnnie actually won!
We always run the Font of All Knowledge Quiz in the Jameson's diary every
week, well we thought for an added bonus we would put in an extra quiz this
week, this is a picture of Ray Matti with his Uncle Matt. Now all you have
to do to win a prize is tell us which one is Uncle Matt and which one is Ray.
(There is 30 years difference between the two of them. So you would think
this would be easy but surprisingly it really ends up with a 50/50 guess)
Sorry no picture of Curly Wurly this week something that will be rectified
next week.
Geaordies Chris and Darren enjoy a pint (or two) at the bar at Jameson's.
Sid Silk with friends about to tuck into dinner.
Landlord Kim Fletcher with the lovely Angie, this is the real reason why Colin
