Looking for Noel
Hello,
I visited Pattaya in March and I enjoyed reading your publication. I REALLY
enjoyed Noels column but since I came home and started reading the Mail on
the web I haven’t been able to find his work. Can you please tell me under
what category I can find his weekly column? Thank you and I will continue
reading the Mail and I hope to come back to Pattaya again to read it in
person. Thanks a lot.

Editor’s note;
The reason you haven’t been able to find Noel on the net is because he has
temporarily disappeared from the scene. We haven’t heard from him in a
while, but hope that he will soon be back with his witty look at life in
Thailand.
Reformers should start at home
Dear Editor:
I am a businessman who travels several times each year to Thailand, spending
vacation interval in Pattaya each trip. Over the last decade, I have seen
much in Pattaya of a negative nature, but never the depths of depravity
which I read about daily in the U.S. (Ed. Note: two newspaper articles were
included with this letter, one about a woman killing her stepson, the other
about a man who forced a boy to live with pigs).
Perhaps the “Christian Crusaders” and other self-righteous reformers who are
so down on Pattaya ought to look in their own backyards.
I myself find the sexual climate in Pattaya refreshing in it innocence,
compared to the violence and banality of its American counterpart. I feel
like I leave an American cesspool for a Thai paradise. See you soon.

Exploding still
Dear Sir ,
I read with interest the recollection of Airhead’s “history”.
Congratulations to him for achieving such a mile stone. But the true story
of Airhead is contained in bowels of the History of the Pattaya Hash
magazine. The 1st 200! No one mentioned the exploding still that he and the
Prince of Darkness had running in some foreign country where strong drink is
banned.
Any way On On
Cloak & Dagger!
Scottish
reply
Dear Sir
I dinnae ken whit yon Sir Arthur Bottomley’s a bletherin aboot. But lang may
his lum reek.
The trouble with the sassenachs is that without the Scots they widnae have
had an Indian army at all. An that’s a fact. So it is.
Any whinging letters from English will be receive a reply of course, but
together with a complimentary photograph of a sojjer of the Black Watch in
Hong Kong, who hasnae any breeks.
The Rt Hon.Sir Ponsenby-Smythe
