mrtoad Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 Considering some of the bad tempered posts on TV the name of the bar seems appropriate.Good chance of a Western-style chairs smashing over heads punch-up I reckon? I wouldn't think so. No worries I think Khun Toad has been practicing arm bar techniques with HM. I'm a bit out of practice since leaving the NHS and HMP -Although I reckon I've still got the technique. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theoldgit Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 At the risk of getting my head bitten off, can I ask what the venues take on the smoking laws are? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jfchandler Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 Crossbar, as you might expect from TV, is a great place for those who love to smoke indoors..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zorro1 Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 Crossbar, as you might expect from TV, is a great place for those who love to smoke indoors..... I will get you a chair where you can sit outside and suck up bus fumes instead bring a mask and straw? Im in, willing to sacrifice an hour or so off my life as a non smoker to be in the presence of possibly the most knowledgeable folk on the planet. Everything from removing warts to the latest market price of Buffalo will be discussed whilst smoking cheap cigars and drinking vintage chung, isn't soi cowboy around the corner? hmmmm.....

theoldgit Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 Warning, Warning - The Anti smoking crew are about to hijack the thread. Well, I asked the question which was not, IMHO, unreasonable, and whilst I am a non smoker I am certainly not anti smoking I just don't enjoy smoke filled environments, if people wish to smoke, well that is their choice and right. I was simply asking what the venue's take on the smoking laws were, so I could then make an informed decision whether to attend or not. I did ponder over whether to ask the question as I was worried about the reaction. I have always enjoyed the get together's and have met some very interesting members, I hope you all have a most enjoyable evening, I am sure you will.

britmaveric Posted October 10, 2009 Author Share Posted October 10, 2009 ^well dont know the smoking regs in this particular pub, but I surmise like most places in thailand - the law is ignored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jfchandler Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 Warning, Warning - The Anti smoking crew are about to hijack the thread. I'm afraid your wrong, Mr. Toad... The SMOKING crew already did, scheduling yet another TV related get-together at an indoor smoking place. I'm afraid you and co. beat me to it...

zorro1 Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 just one question guys Im non smoker but what is worse for you. breathing polluted air 24/7 in BKK or 4 hours surrounded by smokers once every 2 months. Im seriously confused by the logic on this one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
britmaveric Posted October 10, 2009 Author Share Posted October 10, 2009 Don't smoke either and I had no idea about the venue's smoking or non-smoking. So in the end this has little to do about smoking, but a gathering for TV members to socialize. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the end, the last time we did have ameet up there, there were no complaints from the non-smokers and a pleasant evening was had. Hopefully, you are not going to now go ahead and carry on about smoking /non smoking laws. It's an opportunity for people to meet up, which Britmav has kindly organised.

jfchandler Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 I wonder what would happen if the "pissup" crowd were ever to pick a non-smoking venue??? Surely, the world as we know it would come to a crashing end.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rather than moan and complain, why don't you organise something. I'm pretty sure that people will still come along. BTW I don't like you other insinuation of this group being a"pissup" crowd. Anyway, time to get back on topic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
