Thank You Everybody Well what a week. The transport situation is now totally under control, and working perfectly, the funny thing was none of the pub lot wanted to leave anyway, so not much of a change there then. Graham MacDonald got out ok anyway and got back ok too. J.K joined the Simon Edmonds Club and has now had One Night Wonder tattooed across his forehead, after the Two Day Oil Golf Competition last week, where J.K did not even make the second day before running away to the newly opened airport. Rony Fineman came in on the second International flight to Bangkok's main airport and said that it was an absolute pleasure, as it was empty quick, polite, and efficient. Perfect. The Mad Geordies Colin (Mottman) and Alan finally got here after about 12 different arrival dates put through the Nova Park books. Nothing has changed straight into the black and white stripes, grab Makham Paul and off downtown. Sadly some people did go Iris and Tony Ritchie got away, and will be missed round Nova Table, but they did leave behind enough Berroca's and Coronation Street to keep the Landlord going for a fair while, drop me an e-mail when you hit Blighty Ritchie's. The Brothers Dobbs got away on time, much to their surprise. The two Franks (Nobody and Just Frank) are off wandering around the planet somewhere. Ray Matti, Neil Sandilands, and Paul Baker will be back before Christmas. Malcolm Clare (The infamous Root of All Evil) has decided to keep up his best man duties to the Landlord Kim Fletcher indefinitely much to his amusement. The Landlord is seriously considering opening up a separate Port Bar!
The Christmas decorations go up Happy Christmas from all at Jameson’s You try and take a picture of a father and daughter, and what happens?? The Black and white Geordie Hooligans arrive in the shape of Alan and Colin	Ian Harrington (Lady Di) would like to say Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all his fans and loved ones around the world. Namely Niel and Alice Poulsen, Craig Detran, Sid Silk, and Jameson’s Ambassador Mark Stubbs You must look after the smaller ones this one may well grow up to be Prime Minister Definitely ruling the roost Nova Table early on Saturday night, with Thumper, Lady Di, Long haired Landlord, Muffy & Jason Dennis & Lek Wanchai trying to work out the Christmas plan A responsible adult parent & beautiful child Mottman with Mott the Dog Oh it’s going to be a mad Christmas Boys at the bar, Ray (falling out of the bar), Billy, Mottman, Alan and Young Makham Paul Alan, Ashley, the lovely Lola, & Ashley
Nice to see our Old Temporary, Indulgent, Junior, Trainee, Assistant, Deputy, Desperate, Manager Ian Harrington in the pub and round the table after the weekend. Johny Live who is totally responsible for the Landlord's new hippie style haircut. Captain Steve Jester Care4Kids Ponter has finally got over his Birthday's and things are beginning to return to just the normal party atmosphere. Iain Corness hosted Pattaya's Car Club in Jameson's again last Monday for those of you that don't know that is every second Monday of the month. Lovely to get best wishes from several of my friends that have seen me through four weddings, Tricks, Englebert, Paul and Rosemary, Mike Axford, Ambassador Stubbs, Pete Bevis Good Guy number one. Jameson's now has on sale the PILC Cook Book and a marvelous book of beauty it is too. Especially pages 18, and 19. Where there is a bit of a recipe, and a picture of a fine body of men. This weekend there is lots of sport as usual on the big screens of the pub, especially of interest is the Heineken Cup games. (Eoin I'm sure will be centre stage for the Munster game) perfect combination really as there is the possibility of drinking Heineken and watching Rugby. There is of course the normal football schedule with some interesting games this weekend. Middleborough being the early game is one, Liverpool vs. Hull another. A few nervous people watching the screens I should imagine. Plus of course Courtesy of The Font of all Knowledge a constant update on the situation with Reading (we usually don't bother with the score just the number of Reading players left on the pitch and the honest quotes from the manager chap. ("I Think we were a bit lucky there") The very brave England Cricketers will also be playing this weekend with play starting at 10.30 a.m. in Pattaya this will be on the big screen with full soundtrack.
KC Billy tells Young Paul to calm down to a frenzy Alan is Happy too Blue is the colour!!! Sometimes the staff feel really Christmassy Ian’s back, and the Landlord and Mottman watch him get his first pint back. All of Mottman’s shirts are Newcastle one you know, there are home shirts, this year’s away shirt, last year’s away shirt, and the year before’s away shirt, and probably next year’s away shirt Sometimes the girls are in green	Derek arrives Mottman is Happy Kim is Happy because Alan & Colin are Happy Green is the colour!!! Bob dressed as Robin Hood for Christmas
Ron Keeley has been running around as usual for World of Wines selling magnificent wine by the glass, carafe, bottle, and barrel. Rick and Harpic have been in behaving themselves. (Not) Jason graced us with his company on Saturday. Christmas is coming, and there must be a lot of very nervous Turkeys out there. Bookings for Christmas Day can be given in through three telephone numbers on the menu on this diary, but after you have booked please check your reservation on the seating planner in the pub, and we will put it up on the website on the events page on Friday 19th December. So far we have large bookings from Sam Peebles, George Again, Paul Slack, and Captain Steve Ponter, The Root of All Evil is planning an evening visit, so do take that into consideration when you are booking the time of your seating so although we realize that these are tough economic times it still appears that people want to go out on Christmas Day, and even more people are fed up with all the washing up etc of doing it at home. Even the Fat Landlord is aghast at how much some of the other pubs, restaurants, and hotels are charging for a meal on Christmas Day. So hurry up and book in for the complete Jameson's Christmas experience. There are two basic booking times 12 noon till 6.00 p.m. and then 6.00 p.m. till late! Special times can be arranged to suit your needs, and please talk to us about any special circumstances you may have (children etc.). Wines from the World of Wines is still at the normal prices, as are all drinks etc there are no hidden service charges are VAT costs or anything at Jameson's. What you see is what you pay. Santa will be paying a visit. Pop's Pattaya All Stars, will be rockin Jameson's on Christmas Eve, with Rick and Harpic lending support, so that should be a fun night and as Christmas and New Year are wedged between two weekend it's going to be a real party ten days. The pub has had a very North East of England feel to it this week with a lot of talk going on round the pub in a foreign language to us Southerners. Brian Abbott (Mum and Daughter doing well) our beloved Football Captain as usual leading the way helped by the Dobbs Brothers, Ray and Mark (trouble), Young Paul, Billy and Young Steve, the Super Fit Derek, Mad Geordies, Mottman and Alan, add to them all the wonderful Scotties in Paul Strachan, Romantic Derek, and Johny Live you get quite a mixture round the bar and table. See you at the bar, Kim.
Mottman, and the Jameson’s cheese board and Harpic’s pickles Captain Brian Abbott, delves into the pickles instead of getting into one. Last week the staff made a mistake and left the famous Harpic Pickled Onions in the freezer, they quickly took them out of the ice and defrosted the ice but the onions were still frozen Dobsy put a whole one into his mouth, and it was like a giant frozen Gobstopper with plenty of bite. I thought his little eyes were going to come out of his head. We have now labeled all the fridges and freezers to stop that happening again Now these girls know how to party Malcolm Clare The Root of All Evil mistakes, Kim Fletcher the Fat Landlord for Tinkerbelle Ae and the Root with Jimmy wisely staying in the background Ian home again, and loving it People come up to me in the clear light of day, and say you look drunk in some of the photos on your diary! Ah but have you ever seen a picture of the Landlord drunk when the Root of All Evil is around	The Root of All Evil magiced this up Alan and Mottman doing what they really do best Welcome back to the Land of Smiles Bob happy in his work Jugs of Kamikaze's any color you want, whatever it still blows you head off Nova Table Ported by the Root with My Jimmy leading the charge Mr. Spock goes where no other waiter has gone before. Living next door to Alice See once you start the Port and then switch back to beer it's just not good for you My Jimmy steps off stage after his one man comedy show Clare, Bruce, Thor, and Paul get a bit of relaxing in before last rehearsals for a Christmas Carol at the Bangkok Pattaya Hospital on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, as advertised on this page Alice, Root, Kim, Lola, My Jimmy, and Mr. Spock all get the Port treatment. You can clearly see in this picture the evil glint in the Root's eye See the slightly dazed look in Kim's eyes whilst The Root of All Evil has evil intent

	Cheers, see you at the Bar Kim landlord@jamesons-pattaya.com
