Daily Report: Standard Friday

Epril and I slept in until 7:30. Then I had a bad day of work: Got to work at 11:00, then quit for lunch at 1:00, then got back to work at 4:00, and quit for the day at 5:00. Yup: Three hours of work total today. Oh well.


Caddyshack: Standard English fare.

Roast Beef Platter, 185 baht. Delicious.

Sausage and Onions, 160 baht. Perfect.After work, I sat around with Epril, and we went through my 1980's music collection. It's fun, because there are so many great songs that Epril hasn't heard before, but (unlike Thai girls), she can understand and appreciate them, and enjoys them a lot. She seemed to know all of the early-80's soft rock (Toto, Asia, and Air Supply — of course), but the pop music of the mid-to-late 80's was really hit-and-miss: She hadn't heard anything from George Michael's, "Faith", or Prince's, "Purple Rain", but knew JJ Fad's "Supersonic" through and through.

In the evening, it was out to dinner with Stan. Geoff was stuck at work, and Jeff was up in Chiang Mai for the Thanksgiving Holiday. We went to "Caddyshack" on Soi 17, across from the Eden Bar (formerly The Harley Bar). It was a nice enough British place, with the same standard fare that you find at the other two dozen British pub-style eateries in Pattaya. Worth a visit if you're nearby... but not worth a complete review here.

After that, it was back home for a nightcap of Drambuie, a quick glance around the internet, and then off to bed.
