Diary No. 230 Week of 3rd August 2009 - 9th August 2009 Updated 13th August 2009
Jesters Care4Kids Fair four weeks away Doesn't the time come round quickly, in just four weeks time we will have the 12th Jesters Care4Kids Charity Fair at the Diana Driving Range and Resort starting at 10.00 a.m. on Sunday 13th September. This year is going to be a tremendous Fair with everybody putting even more effort into making sure it is bigger and better than last year. Woody, Kevin Mitch, Wild Bill are all working themselves into a frenzy whilst Captain Steve (Jesters Care4Kids) Ponter turns Concert Promoter for the day bringing three acts from Grammy TV down to the Fair. All of whom you can see and read about on this page. Meanwhile Judi and I are desperate for you to give us your Used Books for the Jameson's Used Book Stall, so any of you out there that have got any books to spare now is the time to bring them into Jameson's or you can drop them off at the Pattaya Mail office, or Tropical Bert's, or Tahitian Queen on the Beach Road. We have already received some books for which we are very grateful, but to make a really good day of it we do need some more, so have a look on those dusty shelves, and see what you can find. The Auction site is now a buzz with activity, lots of new auction items to choose from, and lots of new bids coming in every day. Click on the flashing logo on the side of this page to have a good look. You may well be surprised. The climax of the Grand Raffle and the Jesters Care4Kids Charity Drive Auction will be on Saturday the 19th September on Party Night at Jameson's. Where Deborah Philbrook will collapse after all the hard work she has put in getting everything organized. A Very Big Thank you to Michael Thomas from The Regents School for the books for the Jameson’s Used Book Stall. At this year's Jesters Care4Kids Charity Drive Fair 2009 at the Diana Driving Range and Resort on Sunday 13th September from 10.00 a.m. onwards, are not one not two, BUT Three Superstars on the Main Stage. These Artists have been kindly sponsored by Grammy TV. The Jesters Care4Kids Charity Drive Fair just gets better and better.
Friday night at Nova Table, with Ian (Lady Di) Harrington, David Dobbs, Tony (in despair over the Cricket), Terry Schofield, Kim, Simon and Everybody's best Mate and out sports Captain Brian Abbott Geoff is so happy with the England Cricket Team. You can just see how happy he is can't you? Bob, Paul and Charm Rosemary comes in to see her Fat Dad Geoff drinks to forget	Bob Davis still celebrating that lions win Chicken Nick and Rock 'n' Roll Ashley Bob tries to cheer up Geoff as the English bowling attack wilts Tracy Fletcher Dad and Tracy
It's always Loa's fault The Staff decide to try a Port. Courtesy of Three Bob Bob
Nok not to sure about this drinking lark Lola makes Mad take his drink Flemming from the Dusit celebrates going ff to Dubai in the regular Jameson's ritual of getting the Staff drunk The Dinners at Jameson's are man sized That's no way to get round The Root Simon and the lovely Debbie Philbrook Happiness at Jameson's	The lovely Alice Lola in the thick of the action as ever Geoff is somewhere in the middle of this lot. Trying to decide who to pick for England next week Saturday night early on as the Cricket goes from bad to worse. The Gang at Nova Table still enjoy themselves. Captain Steve (Jesters Care4Kids) Ponter leading the charge as ever with our beloved Football Captain Brian Abbott, David Dobbs, Kim, and Judi McNamara The Rugby Crowd from the Pattaya Panthers arrive for Saturday's game Rich Wibrow, John Kennedy and The Root of All Evil Malcolm Clare arrive for Saturday night The Three Cricketers, this masochistic Trio watched every start of play in the Last Ashes Test Match, and yet they sill raise a smile
Alice's Birthday
This Friday starting at 5 o’clock there will be an Oyster Buffet free of charge for all. There will be a nice cold Buffet of fresh Oysters with Fried Onion Bits, Chilli Sauce, and Lemon, but of course the Chef Vinai will be on hand to cook Oysters any way you wish. The Oysters will be served up at 5.00 p.m., but once they are all gone, they are all gone. Don't forget this week it is also the start of the Premiership English Football Season. Every game shown live on the Jameson's TV screens. Sensational News from the Annual Jackalope Golf Tournament. Besides all the usual jolly japes that go on at the Jackalope. There were some extra events this year that should be worth a mention. Firstly Mark Gorda won the 50/50 draw which was worth over a Hundred Thousand Baht, and then calmly turned around and donated the whole of his prize back to Charity. I for one will buy Gorda a large green Label Johnnie Walker Whisky when he next walks through the door of Jameson's. The other news is the one thing that people have always said was impossible the world famous Dream Team won the Jackalope Golf Tournament. The Dream Team are now the proud Champions of the Jackalope Golf Tournament 2009. An incredible feat by an incredible body of men. My heart felt congratulations go out to Captain Jack Levy, his Right Hand Man Ernie Bakke, Side Kick Dan Dorothy who I am sure will give this headline news in the Pattaya Mail (You wait till Golf Monthly comes out) and A.N. Other who played in the Dream Team last Friday. Congratulations Jack well done. Enough from me this week. Have a good week everybody, and don't forget the Jesters Care4Kids Charity Drive 2009 just four weeks away on Sunday 13th September 2009 starting at 10.a.m. at the Diana Driving Range and Resort. Kim & his lovely mum Edna

After much discussion it was decided that the Team England required to retain the Ashes was ------ Straus (Capt) Trescohick, Cook, Bell, Trott, Rampakesh, Prior, Flintoff, Broad, Swann, and Onions. We shall now see what the actual selectors do.

Frenc Fricasays presents Kim Fletcher on behalf of the Jesters Care4Kids Charity Drive an Auction prize of enormous interest and value. A Copy of Count Basie Album signed for Frenc by the great man himself at the Hilton Hotel in Hong Kong (which is no longer there). There is also a recording of the C.D so that you don't have to go scrabbling round looking for a Record Player Deck (remember them?) and almost best of all a fabulous program of the occasion made by Frenc. The whole package comes in a superb cloth box made by Frenc's wife Saben. For more details on this and a chance to bid on this wonderful item please have a look at our updated Auction site Dinner at Jameson's The Nova Gold work progresses at a rapid rate. The Fat Landlord risked Life and Limb dodging in and out of the Construction workers to try and get a shot of the nearly completed Swimming Pool. The Nova Gold will be open for business in November, bookings already being taken
Kim Fletcher and Jameson's thoughts turn to the Jesters Care4Kids Charity Drive 2009 The Jesters Care4Kids Charity Drive is coming up very quickly. Let me just remind you of the dates for the main events on Sunday 13th September 2009 is the Jesters Care4Kids Charity Fair at the Diana Driving Range and Resort, which this year looks like it is going to be even bigger and better this year than last (if that is possible). Kevin Mitch once again stepping into the breach, and doing all the organization in his usual brilliant military precision style. Now whilst talking about the Fair can I also remind everybody that Jameson's amongst other things, has a Used Book Stall at the Fair run by Judi McNamara. The Used Book Stall is always great fun and also raises a nice lot of money for the kids. It is simple logic. (A) You kindly donate to us all your old used books, which can be dropped off at Jameson's or TQ any time, the earlier the better so we can get them sorted. (B) You come to the Fair, and then buy a lot of good books at a cheap price, come early for the best selection. (C) We give all the money we raise to Kevin who hands it on to the Care4Kids Charity Drive. Easy. The next event after the Fair is the Jesters Care4Kids Charity Party Night at Jameson's on Saturday 19th September 2009 which will feature Paul Jackson as our compeer, Music from Mike Gerrard, Rick and Harpic Bryant, and to bring us all to a Rockin' close Pop's Pattaya All Stars and assorted guests. On that night there will also be the arrival of Eric and Robert from their marathon Charity Bike Ride always an amazing feat of endurance, the climax to the Raffle and the fantastic Jesters Care4Kids Charity Auction. The Auction Site is up and running, with lots of good things up there already, all you have to do is click on the link on the left hand side of this page and you will be whisked into Ron Keeley of World of Wine Auction Site, there is plenty to look at and you might even fancy putting a bid in yourself. Plenty already have. There are plenty of ways of helping the Jesters Care4Kids Charity Drive 2009, Obviously by coming to the Fair, and the Party Night, making bids on the Auction Site, buying Raffle Tickets, buying T-Shirts, taking a Bumper Sticker for your car, taking and reading one of our brochures and showing them to other people (all available at Jameson's or TQ). If you would like to know some more right now please click on the link on the right hand side of the page for the Jesters Care4Kids and you will go on a journey to see all about us the website. It is regularly updated and is run by our Chairman, Lewis (Woody) Underwood, and our Webmaster David Smith, a very good Charity, run by some wonderful people, to help those less fortunate than others.
