The Jameson's Sporting Times
|
Sport
from now until the end of the year is monumental. This weekend on Saturday
4th August is a friendly rugby game between England and
Wales, as a warm up to the World Cup which starts
in September Jameson's will of course be showing all
48 games live even though some of them including the
semi finals and the final, will not finish until 5.00 a.m.
But how can any game of rugby be called "Friendly''.
Let battle commence say I Kim Fletcher. Then on Sunday
is a day made for Jon Fox of the wonderful Q
Cars. First we have the Hungarian Grand Prix,
which will as ever be hosted by Iain Corness in the sports
room followed by the beginning of the football season with the Charity
shield game between Manchester United and Chelsea.
Speaking of football The Pattaya Reading Football Club Division's
North and South are preparing well for the start of the new season,
a few transfers have been made and practice sessions eagerly attended,
which is apparently more than can be said for the actual team, but still
Manchester United away for the first game. Doddle.

The ever popular Ingrid (the world famous Tooth Fairy, there now
I have done it, I have blown her secret identity) celebrates her birthday
at Jameson's, with family and friends as you can see a very jolly bunch
they all are too

Ladies and Gentlemen, Lords and Ladies, may I present the Jameson's
rogues gallery for this week, on your left is the man who used to be
called Malcolm Clare, now known as the “Root of All Evil”.
He may well seem a charming chap when you first meet him BUT beware
all is not what it seems once the "Root" (as he is affection
known by those closest to him) builds up a head of steam there is no
stopping him, Bob the barman is often reduced to a gibbering wreck once
the shooters that the Root orders start flying. In the middle is the
man for all season's (Football, Motor Racing, etc.) Jon Fox of the infamous
Q Cars, now if you want a car for rental or purchase Johny is your man,
if you just want to have a quiet drink a distance of at least 1 kilometer
away from Jon is suggested. On your right hand side is Ray Matti, everybody's
favorite Cloggy, this man should also not be trifled with, his latest
habit is Champagne shooters with Tequila, now one is a bit of a laugh
but 6 within 15 minutes tends to send the old grey matter a bit scrambled.
The three of them together in one town is bad enough to make a grown
man cry, but all three together, in one pub, well it puts the future
of the world as we know it in desperate doubt. But if you wish to see
Carnage at its most fun all three of these people will be in for the
Formula One, and The Charity Shield on Sunday. The fat Landlord Kim
Fletcher will be hiding under the table

Our Resident Manager Wanchai with the Jameson's
secret pool championship team winners for sure

The other side of Nova Table, the to working
Franks, with an attentive Johny Live, who's website is highlighted at
the side of this page, Thailand's most popular hairdresser is our Johny.
The fat Landlord, and The Executive, Assistant, Junior, Trainee, Deputy,
Relief Manager Ian (Lady Di) Harrington. I think Ian is actually on
the e-mail arranging fore Niel and Alice Poulsen to come over for this
years Jesters Charity Fair which is on Sunday 9th September at the Diana
Driving Range and Resort, followed by the Party Night at good old Jameson's
on Saturday 15th September. For a preview of all the Auction Items and
the main Grand Raffle prizes please look up our special link on the
side of the diary. The two top prizes for this year raffle the two motorbikes
will be on display in Jameson's from this Saturday onwards, thanks to
some industrious work from Mr. Energy himself Captain Steve Ponter

Jason Payne
(Father of famous lead guitarist Leo) does love his sport, but sometimes
it all just gets too much for Johny Live

| Please
check out the sports schedule on this page for times etc, all English
cricket supporters will be glad to see no cricket this week.
Great 50th Birthday Party for Neil Sandilands last Saturday,
good rockin' from 'The Bastards' and a good time was
had by all.
Best news of the week was the arrival back in Pattaya
of Paul and Oanh Crouch, they have certainly been through
the wringer, but have bounced back to their old selves (or should that
be young selves?) remarkably quickly. It is really nice to have them back
with us again. With the good news though is always bad as Spencer
has now left to go to the rivers of Jordon and my mate
Andy McTighe will be going back to live in Blighty shortly.
Not of course before The Jameson's T & A Golf Tournament
is sorted out. Will the Trophy stay in Thailand
with Terry Schofield of No fixed abode, or will Andy
carry it aloft to England?

Andy in the thick of it all

Johny, Paul and Alan after doing battle with
the Root. You just don't win you see

Bob closes his eyes and prays whilst the old
professional Andy is ready, willing and happy to speedup

Oh the perks of Management Lady Di have a quick
chat to one of the lovely Heineken girls. Lady Di assures us that he
was actually enquiring about this lovely ladies perfect teeth

Sid Silk a one man fan club for uther Stephen
Leather holds up the latest edition to his collection a first edition
unsigned paperback of perhaps Stephen's greatest work "The Chinaman"
Kim Fletcher and Andy McTighe look on bemused

Sid Silk makes a welcome return to Nova Table,
but makes the School boy error of sitting next to Malcolm Clare "The
Root of All Evil"

Brian has a good chuckle to himself as Rick
Bryant tries to squeeze himself into Big Dave's chair, Harpic has been
away camping in England for a week, a Rick has tried to bulk himself
up ready for his foray off to England to join her next week. Harpic's
request for the Landlord to give Rick a big sloopy kiss was firmly denied

Look at this sad little lonely chap, have you
ever seen such a sad face Rick without Harpic just isn't right is it.
Still at least he has got Heineken to console him

Two terrible pieces of news I must tell you before
I close this short diary. One of Pattaya's brightest
lights went out on Wednesday 1st August when Gerry
Carpenter went up to the great golf course in heaven. Gerry
was a man of many parts, President of the Pattaya Sports
Club, supporting many charities, a leading man in the development
and running of Shenanigans, but most importantly Gerry
was everybody's friend, you only had to know Gerry
a few minutes to know that he was a very sound bloke, and once he was
your friend, you would never be without a friend. I hope they had the
ice cold Kloster's ready for Gerry, he will be sorely
missed by all. Sadly also this week Noel Sly, Ken's father
also died after a fine innings of 88, Noel
will always be remembered for straining his neck whilst trying
to watch the rugby and the girls at the same time in TQ2.
Many a glass this weekend will be raised upwards in memory of these
two splendid men. See you at the bar, Kim.
