SOCIAL SCENE

 


The Pattaya Players recently held their first social evening at the beautiful home of Mari and Sam Parino. The ‘Mexican Fiesta’ theme was a great success at this exclusive member only party. Chris Parsons provided the fantastic frozen margaritas, while Debbie and Ken Cavanaugh introduced their famous quesadilla dip which was a great success.


 

Bangkok Hospital Pattaya is proud to provide first aid boxes for the ‘Walking Charity for Children of Lap Land’ to a group of 30 persons from Dublin, Ireland recently held at Aisawan Resort. This generous project was instigated by United Travel Company, organized by Con Murphy who is now one of the travel company’s agents.

Steve Graham of ESC came to Jameson’s the Irish Pub in Pattaya to give a talk on customer relations and customer and staff safety whilst at work. This was followed by the best bit - everybody having a drink together. The talk was inspired by Jameson’s receiving a copy of the Hythe Review, the Parish Magazine of St. Leonard’s Church, Hythe, Kent, England.
