any interest in a mini GTG in bkk in november, 2009? it seems several of us will be there then....

WHO WILL BE IN TOWN, AND ON WHAT DATES?


RHK'S AND GPANDA'S---nov 15-19 and nov 25-29....

Bob
I won't be there at that time, but I see you'll be in BKK for Thanksgiving. I'll bet Maeng is fixing turkey and all the trimmings (Thai style...lol)... on that day. You probably already have every meal planned waaaaay ahead, but I'm sure Maeng would set a table for 4!
Carol

we do hope to have maeng's garlic shrimp one day while there..

karen wants to be as far from turkey as she can be!!

Bob, we may overlap with you in Bangkok on one day. We arrive in Bangkok on the 20th and fly out very early in the morning on the 26th.

So far the 25th(Wednesday) looks the best with Kathie and Cheryl, the Bobs and the Andys + NYwoman?

i arrive in bangkok on the 20th(ua), then leave on the 29th. kathie, we might be traveling together from narita.

anytime is a good time for me for a mini or maxi gtg. lol.

bob, i'm with karen. no turkey for me.

kathie...we return to the plaza anthenee about 6PM on the 25th....should be able to connect that nite...

so then maybe the question is: WHO WILL BE IN BKK ON NOV 25 IN THE EVENING??

Muffin and I also arrive on the 20th! But looks like we will miss all the fun...DRAT

Ken, we'll be flying from Rangoon on the 20th. It sounds like you'll be there if we meet on the 25th - that's great! It looks like we'll have a nice-sized group.

I won't be there on the 25th but if you do get together, please raise a glass to me - it's my birthday. Hopefully there will be other Fodorites in Bangkok when Jeane and I are there in February.

If we plan the GTG early enough in the day, Bob won't be awake and we can have a great time. We will certainly raise a glass to Craig as long as the Yankees don't win the World Series.

it came to me that Kineree on soi 8, sukhumvit might be a good place for a thai dinner and meeting....maybe i will ask carol to check it out for us in the next few weeks.....she loves to do kimball errands, but then its "her neighborhood"....

if we went there it would give kathie and andy and others a perfect chance to check it out...

I'll try to keep my travel plans clear for the 20th - 26th. Kinnaree sounds good. Those that do want turkey may want to check out Bourbon Street. I haven't make it there yet for Thanksgiving, but everyone raves about it. I think he serves it all weekend, so it doesn't have to be on the day. You could do Maeng's one day and Bourbon the next!

ttt

we need more attendees on the 25th....

TTT

So Bob, when I walk down soi 8 to Kinnaree in the next couple of weeks, to check out a possible GTG location there, how many folks do you think you'll have at your GTG? Looks to me to be about 10-12?? Are you looking for a private room or just a large table?
Carol

that's probably about right...maybe 10 by my current count, but perhaps a few more..

How about a table for 9 and a table for one?
