2008 Teddy Bear and Rice Appeal

This is just a few of the donations received at Oscars so far and
special thanks must go to John.

Following the success of the 2007 Teddy Bear appeal when over 500 Teddy Bears were generously given and donated to local Orphanages we once again launch this Appeal, now named the 2008 Teddy Bear and Rice Appeal.
Rice, a staple part of the diet here, has doubled in price over the last few months causing hardship to many and it seems appropriate to add this.

Donations of Bears ( small and medium size please ) , bags of Rice and cash will be welcomed at the participating venues of Oscars Bar and Panorama Pub on Boyz Town, Thais4Life Bookshop on Soi Yensabai Pattaya and once again at Balcony Pub and Restaurant, Silom Soi 4, Bangkok . If giving cash for Rice please give your name or a pseudonym and an official receipt will be given and Thais4Life will account for and publish the name and the donation on their web site.

The appeal will finish on Thursday December 18th and culminate in a Teddy Bears Picnic on the afternoon of that day when the Bears will ' meet the press ' before being distributed to there new homes in time for Christmas. In attendance will be ' Oscar ' the Thais4Life Teddy Bear, regularly featured on the Weekly report, who has been cruising round the World most of this year courtesy of our friend Robin and will hopefully become the most travelled Bear having completed over 100,000 Nautical Miles. Oscar, returning to Pattaya in December, together with a log of his travels will be auctioned at a Charity Event, date to be announced.

Also at this event a Prize of a Litre Of Black Label donated by Oscars Bar will be given to the donated Bear which has travelled the most to get here. Last year the winning Bear travelled from The Falkland Islands and was sponsored by Stuart of Balcony Bangkok.

Thank you everyone for your support.

Halloween on Silom Soi 4


 

Silom Soi 4 is known as "the place" to celebrate Halloween in Bangkok and this
year the multitude were not disappointed as they crowded into all the venues.

 

The Soi was suitably decorated with bats, cats, spider’s webs, balloons,
severed heads, pumpkins and a whole lot more.

The party featured a scary costume contest sponsored by Southern Comfort; an appropriately
chilling cabaret performance by The Dream Girls and just at the right time a show of thunder and lightning.

Another fun night on Soi 4

And finally . . .

We've all seen those funny Thai signs!
Well this one is from Wales . . .

E-mail error ends up on road sign

The English is clear enough to lorry drivers - but the Welsh reads
 "I am not in the office at the moment. Please send any work to be translated."


When officials asked for the Welsh translation of a road sign, they thought the reply
was what they needed.

Unfortunately, the e-mail response to Swansea council said in Welsh:
"I am not in the office at the moment. Please send any work to be translated".

So that was what went up under the English version which barred lorries from a road near a supermarket.
