The Cup final between the British Club and on their first
visit to Thailand the Taipei Baboons lived up to expectations being a very
closely fought match, at half time the British club had a slight lead but
the Baboons looked like pulling back. As the game wore on the heat took its
toll on the players, the Baboons threw all they had against the British Club
only to lose out 24-14 at the final whistle to take home the Pattaya 10’s
Rugby Cup for 2004.

Pattana Tigers (black and orange) struggle to bring down a Thai Barbarians
player in the Plate final.
An amazing weekend of rugby was played out for the many
that went to Horseshoe Point in Pattaya to watch the twenty-two teams that
participate in the tournament. The first day saw many energetic teams racing
around the playing field before being subdued by the midday heat; a brief
respite was felt by all during the only downpour of the weekend.

Memorial Tens Cup.
In the ladies competition the Wantoks, Galaxy,
Southerners B, Telawi and the Singapore Recreation Club all showed strong,
while in the men’s competition the British Club, Southerners Black, Taipei
Baboons and Kasetsart University showed the crowds how rugby tens can be
exciting to watch.

during the playoffs.
After being slowly charbroiled during the day the teams
proceeded to the unofficial main event of tournament, something that has
become synonymous with being in Pattaya, “The Quaich”. A short stroll
around the town to replace fluids lost while exercising, points are given
for the most drinks consumed in each bar on the programmed route, needless
to say a few teams are way-laid and do not complete the course.

from Jimmy Howard.
Sunday morning sorts the men out from the boys, who is
fit and who needs a berroca, also who was out-done by the ladies the night
before. The final pool matches were played out with many teams suffering
from lack of sleep, and excessive partying the previous night. In the Ladies
competition the Bowl was won by the Cobrettes beating the Southerners A
side, the Plate competition saw Telawi overcome the spirited team from
Vientiane and in the final the Wontoks from Singapore beat the Singapore
Recreation Club 3-1. The Ladies player of the tournament was Karen Tham from
the Wontoks.
Plate
champions in the Ladies Touch Competition, the Wantoks, from Singapore
defeated the Singapore Recreation Club in the grand final.
In the men’s Bowl competition the Pattaya Panthers beat
the Bangkok Japanese 14-7 to advance to the Bowl final, in the other
semi-final the Samui Simians beat Taipei Red 12-0. After a hard fought final
the Samui Simians overcame the Panthers 19-14 to win the Bowl competition.
The
Wantoks (black jerseys) are too quick for the Panties in the playoffs.
The Plate competition saw the first semi-final between
the Pattana Tigers and Tsunami Tee-totallers with the Tigers winning 12-5,
the Thai Barbarians then opened up in the other semi-final beating
Southerners Gold 40-0. In the Plate final the Thai Barbarians muted the
Tiger’s roar by convincingly beating them 50-0.

father presented The Chris Kays Memorial Trophy to Kyle Podziewski from the
Tsunami Teetotallers for his spirit of fair play and good fun during the
Pattaya tournament.
The first semi-final of cup competition saw the British
Club playing the Southerners Black team, in a very hard fought game there
was very little between the teams with the score ending up at 7-7. The
competition rules stated that a sprint race the length of the pitch would
decide the winner, each side put up their sprinters and the race was won by
a short-head by the British Club. In the other semi-final the Taipei Baboons
overcame a spirited young Kasetsart University side by 26-17. It is a
pleasure to see all the Thai players competing in the tournament; the
standard of rugby gets better each year.

‘Emily Smoothbottom’ Weatherby (center) and the Telawi girls went back
to school for this year’s infamous ‘Quaich’.
The men’s player of the tournament, judged by the
referees was Tirawat Ruangwong from the Thai Barbarians, an outstanding
young player that could have a future in any international team.
The Chris Kays Memorial Trophy is presented to the player
who puts the most into the weekend, both on and off the field, this year it
was given to Kyle Podziewski from the Tsunami Teetotallers by Ray Kays,
Chris’s father.
Thanks go out to the Sponsors - Shenanigans Pattaya, Terra Quest and
MBMG, also BT Insurance and Safety Insurance for supplying the water for all
the teams, Horseshoe Point for providing the grounds and taking care of
everyone over the weekend.

PSC fishermen unfazed by stormy sea
Wednesday April 28
I do like a good plan and this one seemed a cracker. Up
at 04:00 hrs and down to Bang Sarae to get on the boat and zoom out to the
fishing grounds before day break. Any fool knows the best fishing is at
daybreak and twilight. Good plan.
All went well at first, alarm worked, trip down fine, if
a bit drizzly and we arrived at the pier in fine time. It had started to
rain a little but with a golfing umbrella a walk along the pier to tell the
Captain we were here seemed in order as a first.
The
crew with food for the day.
They say ‘The best plans of Mice and Men etc” and by
the time I reached the boat the rain was so heavy I couldn’t contact the
Captain and the rain was coming through the umbrella. By the time I got back
to the car and under cover the pier was ankle deep in water, my feet and
body were soaked and the temperature had dropped and it was freezing.
Sitting under cover the storm really hit and it has never
been my pleasure to be in the eye of one before in all it’s fury. The
lightning flashed around us and the thunder was deafening and we sat there
in all this scary splendour, in dark as the pier lights went out, until
06:20 hrs. waiting for it to clear so we could go home, surely only crazy
people would go out after that?
40
to 50 kg Ray released after 1 hour fight.
The Captain appeared to be sleeping, must be deaf, and I
told him we were there and what about the fishing. “No problem, we go
now”, so we did. Mind it was with some trepidation and as we motored out
lightning crashed into the Sea around us. I have never seen such a sight,
and the Sea was covered in mist. It was also freezing the coldest I have
been in Thailand and the thought went through my mind that the institutions
were full of people like us. Still, if it settled down surely the fishing
would be fine.
Well it settled and as the morning went on, the weather
warmed up slightly and the fishing did improve. Only unsettling aspect was
the Sea appeared covered in wreckage from a local boat that had gone down.
The Sea can be as cruel as it can be ‘’Bountiful and Magnificent’.
As the day went on the fishing did indeed become pretty
good, but one very noticeable fact was that as the line was brought up from
the deep the lead, and any fish, appeared hot. It will take some time for
the water to cool, low down.
We were pulling in Rays, always liked by the locals as
after all they are only a big flatfish really. Where was the special fish?
Well on this day it arrived and made our day as the line zoomed out again
and it became quickly apparent that the fish was special. Then it jumped
through the air, time and time again, and it was obvious it was different
and special. The fish when landed was one we had not seen before but was
quickly identified as A Yellow Queenfish and on it’s own worth the day
out.
Day over a slow run in with the Sun setting in fine
weather provided another treat as a white Dolphin jumped across the front of
the boat putting the icing on a very different day.
As I finish this I am told that by 11:00 hrs. The Dolphin
with Tony Tenkerman on board, has landed 7 Cobia. A story for another day.
So maybe the Sea is cooling and getting food from the land washed into the
Sea. Maybe happy days are here again. T.T.F.N.

Peacock Place Indoor and Bowling League
The Ladies singles finished with Nid beating Tukta 9-5 and
Danny Sue completing two 7-7 draws which left just the top of the table clash
between Lek and Peacock Sue. Unfortunately, with Lek suffering a previous nights
hangover, she couldn’t stay the pace and Peacock Sue won easily 19-1. This
left Peacock Sue as champion, Lek as runner up and Nut in third place.
The
mixed doubles were unresolved due to illness but in the two matches played
Yellowbirds were held to a draw with Love Nest 6-6 and Peacock beat Double
Trouble 9-7, with Double Trouble pulling back from 6-0 down to level at 7-7 with
one end to go before Peacock came up with the winning two shots. So it is still
left to Yellowbirds and Gin, both playing Love Nest in the title decider.
In the Snooker Brian came back to earth with a loss to Danny Sue 74-28, but
then Sue suffered a couple of defeats to Patrick 37-36 and 58-48 and one to
George 78-27 in her catch up games which left Patrick jumping up into third
place.
John Ottaway celebrates 65 Gross at Mulligans
Mike Franklin
John Ottaway, long time regular golfing visitor to
Pattaya, celebrated his 65th Birthday with a Better Ball Stableford
tournament at Rayong Green Valley on Monday April 26.
Mulligans was the organizing venue thanks to Ray Ryan and
Bruce Tollitt, Bruce efficiently putting the tournament together with great
attention to detail right down to correcting the hole index rating on the par
five 4th hole.
Overall
pair winners Dave Porter and and Terry Summers, presented by John Ottaway
(center).
Anyone who had not visited the Rayong Green Valley course
for some while was in for a surprise, not least at the intimidating 1st Hole
where a significant water carry confronts the shorter hitters. However,
rather than having to take a drop at the compulsory ‘Drop Area’ and lose
a shot, there is alternative and more creative option of taking an eight iron
to the Ladies tee. Other changes on the course await you and, for me being so
familiar with the original RGV layout, it was like playing an entirely new
course.
Larry
Nicholas (left), winner Over 65’s, with John Ottaway.
Tee times from 11.30 am off the 1st & 12th got the
field of nearly fifty players under way in fine weather but with the
temperature well up in the middle of the day.
Players were Cam-corded in various situations, but
primarily off the tee providing a humorous showing of an assortment of
‘golf swings’ during the buffet back at Mulligans bar. Twenty minutes of
seeing amateur golf swings makes one realize just how good the professionals
are.
Ray and Keaw put on a splendid Thai/Western buffet topped
by a spit-roasted pig that was really delicious. That done Ray emceed the
presentation that featured valuable prizes that John Ottaway had received
from a friend at Nike, including golf bags, holdalls, gloves, balls and more.
Technical winners were announced starting with the Long
Putt on the 18th won by Joe Banks. Lee Messenger won the ‘A’ Flight Long
Drive and Ash Vara ‘B’ Flight. The ‘Nearest Case Heineken’ went to
Lee Messenger ‘A’ Flight and appropriately to Bruce Tollit in ‘B’
Flight. The four ‘Near Pin’ prizes went to Andy Wilkenson, Jeff North,
David Hester and Aiden McMahon. Banjob Franklin was awarded a special Nike
prize for just being there.
Performance awards went to Larry Nicholas in the ‘over
65’s’. Three Pairs Better ball teams came in with 46 Stableford points
and, after count-back, third place went to Jeff North & Peter Henderson;
Larry Nicholas and Brian Orr were runners-up and the winning pair featured
Terry Summers and Dave Porter.
There were ‘A’ & ‘B’ Flight singles winners
too. In ‘B’ Flight Doug Carysforth was third, Kim Payne runner-up and
Larry Nicholas the winner. In ‘A’ Flight Damian South was third, Dave
Hester runner-up and Jeff North the winner.
That all done it was time for a few words from Ray Ryan
about his friend of some seventeen years standing, John Ottaway. John
naturally replied, said equally nice things about Ray and thanked Ray, Bruce
and all who had played in his Birthday Bash for making it such an enjoyable
and memorable occasion. It must be said that John has made his contribution
to tourism in Thailand with several visits to the Kingdom annually and a
group that has increased over the years to sixteen golfers.
The Birthday cake appeared to make the occasion complete
and bring the formal proceedings to a close. Time then for a Sing-a-Long with
talented performer Toom, and a chance for the enthusiastic karaoke singers to
have a go.
It was a good day, on a fine course, with a great Mulligans party to
follow. Happy 65th Birthday John Ottaway.

2nd Place A Flight: Phil Mitchell, net 69
3rd Place A Flight: Steve Mascari, net 71
1st Place B Flight: Nui Meesuk, net 67
2nd Place B Flight: Alec Hoare, net 68
3rd Place B Flight: Bob Lindborg, net 69
Near Pins: #13 Phil Mitchell; #16, Klaus Schackt
Nui Meesuk, the better looking of the McHugh household,
struck again with a net 67 to post the best score on the day. It was good enough
to edge Alec Hoare and the Guru of Green Valley, Bob Lindborg, by one and two
strokes, respectively, in B Flgiht.
In A Flight Wacko Jacko edged Phil Mitchell by but one swing.
Steve Mascari started a productive week by taking the A Flight bronze right out
of Joe McArdle’s hands on countback.
Monday April 26
St. Andrews - White Tees
2-Person Scramble
1st Place: Paul Breen/Roger Koehler, 58.87 points
Still suffering some Songkran/Low Season fallout and a new
notion of intimidation vis-เ-vis this Muirhead designed layout, it was a
modest crowd that tried their fortunes in the 2-person scramble. It was the
highest “capped” pairing in the field, Paul Breen and Roger Koehler and
their 16.13 handicap (43 summed handicap multiplied by 3/8) cleared the balance
of the lads by 5 strokes. Who was the hero? Stay tuned, they square off
Wednesday!
Wednesday April 28
Khao Kheow - A & B - White Tees
Stroke/Medal
1st Place A Flight: Steve Mascari, net 68
2nd Place A Flight: Eddie Blackwell, net 69
1st Place B Flight: Paul Breen, net 70
2nd Place B Flight: Roger Koehler, net 71
Paul had barely stepped off the 18th when he began to regale
the perils of Monday past where he had been forced to carry Roger Koehler in the
just completed 2-man scramble. Now hold it!
Roger didn’t do so bad, he was only a stroke behind his
partner and B Flight winner Paul Breen.
The A Flighters paid little attention to the needling going
on and calmly shot the quality rounds of the day. Lewiinkis’ proprietor, Steve
Mascari, ruled the A Flight roost with a net 68 off his 6 handicap, edging
sartorially resplendent Eddie Blackwell by a single digit.
Friday April 30
Burapha - A & B -Blue & White Tees
Stroke/Medal
1st Place Blue Flight: Jeremy Masse, net 68
2nd Place Blue Flight: Roger Koehler, net 68
1st Place White Flight: Ray Dell, net 65
2nd Place White Flight: Robert Sellick, net 67
Near Pins: #B8 Ken Kutzing
Burapha A & B is always a good test of golf. If it
presents one challenge for the Golf Manager it is that the New or East course,
as it is also referred to, is a shortish 6024 from the Whites and is routinely
emasculated by the field, while the Blues, still not long in total (6542), has
five par fours over 400 yard, with 3 in a row, 8, 9 and 10, nearly unreachable
to all but the longest hitters.
In an effort to provide the shorter hitters a fun day and at
the same time provide the long hitters the desired test, the Field was split by
those playing White or Blue tees, rather than by handicap. The choice of tee box
divided the nicely sized field right down the middle. The “Good Roger”, one
of this week’s title boys, tied the leader on the day but once again found
himself relegated to the second slot on a count back loss to Jeremy Masse. But a
first and two seconds for the week wasn’t bad! The shorter setup was well
dominated by Ray Dell at net 65, with Robert Sellick second with the second best
net on the day.

Eastern Star
Stableford
1st: Milton Kirk, 42
2nd: Toy Theobald, 39
3rd: John Larder, 37
4th: Chang Suh, 36
5th: Pete Murray, 35
Eastern Star continues to improve in all areas, after the
massive amount of ground work to improve the greens and fairways, and is
rapidly becoming one of the top courses in the area.
Milton Kirk, following several poor to terrible rounds, at
last managed to keep the white thing on the short green stuff to shoot the
best round of his life and easily take the top honour of the day. Toy
Theobald in her last game before returning to the steamy heat of the UK, took
a well earned trophy in second place.
John Larder was as usual to be found among the winners,
although this time only in third place but again under par.
Chang Suh, another regular on the podium, took fourth just
edging Pete Murray into the last position of prize winners.
The twos were shared between Richard Garland and John
Larder.
Before presenting the prizes Richard Livingston, the
resident PGA Professional, welcomed new member David Kinsella and also
welcomed back Paul Hartley together with Fred and Toy Theobald.
Wednesday April 28
Burapha West
Stableford
1st: Bob Lindborg, 37
2nd: Barry Traynor, 36
3rd: Peter Emslie, 35
Due to the overnight storms that continued into the early
morning, it was no surprise that the field was dramatically reduced although
in the end sixteen hopefuls having left for the course in quite rainy
conditions, found Burapha to be both very payable and without a sign of rain.
Bob Lindborg continued his good run of form to take the
top spot by a shot from the rejuvenated Barry Traynor, with Peter Emslie
rounding out the podium.
In an effort to reduce his outgoings, Trevor Edge together
with his playing partners started the round from the wrong tees thus ensuring
a pay out free day to most of his usual beneficiaries, although one of his
group still managed to have a draw, as once again even off the short tees
Trevor struggled to make a score.
There were no twos achieved and the pot was therefore
carried forward.
Prior to the prize giving Richard welcomed back Mark
Campbell and Dave Lee.

Siam Country Club
Monthly Medal
1st Division
1st: Michael Dige, 73 cb9 36
2nd: Barry Traynor, 73 cb9 36.5
3rd: Pete Murray, 74
2nd Division
1st: Michael Moore, 69
2nd: Tom Parks, 70
3rd: Nick Hughey, 71
Having set off in fine weather and played the front nine
without problems, most of the field had to endure a one and a half hour
stoppage due to a tremendous storm that left the course completely
waterlogged and many trees shattered and felled. But Siam is one of the best
drained courses around and after the storm and lightning had passed everyone
continued the round.
The soggy conditions played havoc with many score cards on
the back nine and the early starters got the better of deal and were all to
be found among the winners.
Michael Dige took the 1st Division by virtue of a better
back nine and half a shot from Barry Traynor who once again promised much but
faded over the last couple of holes and had again to be satisfied with second
place. Pete Murray played his standard game to slip into 3rd spot.
In the second division Michael Moore underlined his recent
progress to record his first win, and a medal at that, out of The Haven. Tom
Parks also took his first prize in second place with Nick Hughey rounding out
the podium.
The mobile ATM was well and truly back in business to the
delight of many.
The twos including the carry over were shared between Nick
Hughey, Tom Parks and Trevor Edge. The latter who by getting one, nearly got
back into the black for the day.
Before handing out the days spoils, Richard welcomed new
member Jean-Paul Michiels.
Gerry & Trevor storm through at Sriracha
Mike Franklin
Gerry Carpenter and Trevor Carnahoff beat the storm at
Sriracha International Golf Club to win the Shenanigans Combined Stableford
competition on Tuesday April 27.
Admittedly by only one point, but their combined score of
64 Stableford points was the best of the day in difficult weather
conditions. Oppressive heat followed by a typical Sriracha electric storm
that held play up for about forty minutes. Mikael Andersson and John King
tied with Nora Haugsjordet and Bob Dibben, both with 63 points. Mikael and
John won a ‘back six’ count-back and took the runners-up spot, Nora and
Bob coming third. This was a welcome return of Shenanigans to Sriracha
International with the course considerably improved now and generally fine.
Mike
(center) congratulates the winners Gerry Carpenter (left) and Trevor
Carnahoff (right).
Near pins were claimed by Jason Payne and Bob Dibben, and
Mikael Andersson was nearest on the other two. Bob Dibben also sank the
longest putt on the eighteenth, and Bill Johnstone proved his new shiny
putter was working by being longest on the ninth.
Runners-up

Back at Shenanigans newcomers to the Tuesday outing, Bob

prize-giving and the Tuesday 100 baht Special of Grilled Liver & Bacon
proved to be a winner.

On Tuesday May 11 Shenanigans returns to Plutaluang,

only. Time for strategic thinking as to what four clubs each member of the
Pair puts in the bag. Sign-up for May 11 in Shenanigans.
Rose comes up roses again
On Tuesday April 27 The Bunker Boys went to Pattaya Country
Club for their weekly Medal Competition. Again it was hot but with a
thunderstorm halfway round the temperature cooled down.
Paul Rose continued his run of fine form winning with a net
72 (it would have been better except for a disastrous 9 on the par 4 15th hole).

Second place went to Brian Bradley making a welcome return to
The Bunker with a net 76. In a dismal third place came Nick Fawson with a net 83
whilst The Bunker Banana Booby prize was presented to Mick Ramshaw who has been
playing well of late, but today he was all over the course (and the outlying
countryside).
Paul Rose completed a good day by winning The Bunker Bonanza
Bonus.
Mick makes
a comeback
On Thursday April 29 it was off to Khao Khaow Country Club
for a Stableford Competition.
After winning The Bunker Banana Booby prize on Tuesday Mick
Ramshaw showed us all he really can play returning to form with 38 Stableford
points to claim first prize.
Second was steady George Redgewell with 35 Stableford points
closely
followed by David Johnson with 34 points.
The unlucky recipient of The Bunker Banana Booby prize today
was Lez Hall.
George Redgewell also had the good fortune to win The Bunker Bonanza Bonus
prize completing a very enjoyable day all round.
Red, White and Blues for Mr. Loy
IPGC Bunker Boys at the OK Corral
The Bunker Boys left their OK Corral base on Monday and Tuesday, April
26-27, for their monthly 36 hole event at their usual venue, the very
pleasant Green Valley course.
This time the format was to be Stableford “Red,
White and Blue”, with twelve holes off the red tees, twelve off the
white and the final twelve off the distant blue tees. On a hot first day
the course was well appointed and the greens were their usual slick pace.
A steady strong breeze held up all day and this made
club choices off the “unknown” ladies’ tees paramount. High scores
were expected but they really did not materialise except for two fine
rounds by Len Jones and Mr. Loy, whose 40 and 42 points respectively led
the day, holding off the thirty-sevens of Norm Robinson and PJ Redmond.
At the first day presentation both leaders pointed out
the secret of success off the red tees - you have to forget the length of
your own game and think like a lady! The second day dawned with heavy
skies and three of the four leaders found the round a struggle.
Perhaps the first day table toppers were still
thinking like ladies, forgetting that the blue tees demanded a real
man’s game! In the event they managed the three lowest scores of the
day, with the card of Mr. Loy being the worst, and they were overwhelmed
by the canny course management skills of PJ Redmond and Mike Frizzell,
their scores of 29 points taking the second day. When the scores were
aggregated it left PJ Redmond in first place, with 66 points, and Pat
Murphy and Mike Frizzell sharing second place with their 62 points
totals.
The Bunker Boys’ Super Sawng award was shared by
Mark Joshua, Norm Robinson and Mr. Loy and the enigmatic Steve Nowell,
nothing short of brilliant one day and less so on another, took the
Banana Booby with his low score total of 53 points. It was an excellent
two-day golf tournament and regulars were left to ponder that playing off
different tees requires a different strategy, and automatic pilots become
redundant.
Steve Nowell back in the
groove
The Bunker Boys took their monthly trip up route 331
to the severely testing golf course at Treasure Hill on Thursday, April
29, to play their weekly medal round. They found the course in excellent
condition with ant-hill free fairways and fairly paced greens.
The day was very hot however and exhaustion was to
play a big factor in the day’s events. Rookie Bunker Boy, Max Gard,
toiled under the sun to record a net 82 and this held out no chance of
success until other cards came in and he found himself propelled into
third place.
The week’s two-day winner, PJ Redmond, continued his
fine form to score net 77 and take second place whilst Steve Nowell
regained his form and his reputation with a fine net 75, to take the day.
Neil Hughes and Roy Mitchell vied for the worst round
of the day but in the end the Banana Booby was unanimously awarded to Mr.
Loy for losing a belated Songkran challenge with his caddy and getting
the contents of an iced water bottle poured down his shirt! There is
never a dull moment with the Bunker Boys at Treasure Hill.

The best field for a few weeks turned up to try and win
the Monthly Mug on the sandy wastes of Siam, roll on the rain. Surprisingly
the course was not as bad as of late, it seems they are leaving as much
grass on as they can and hoping it spreads. Still the greens show some signs
of recovering but have a long way to go.

were expecting some pretty high scores, and boy did we get them. However
amongst the dross there was the gleam of one round that would have won nine
weeks out of ten and one round, a real shiny diamond, and was the lowest
ever posted in a Monthly Mug, and probably the round of a lifetime.
Dick
Caggiano, winner B flight on Thursday
In the A Flight, 0 to 19, the winner with a net 70 was
Takeshi Hakozaki ahead of a countback for second on net 71 won by Brian
Noguer with Bill Plath in third.
In the B Flight, 20 up, we had a fine win with a net 65,
good enough to win most months, by Dick Caggiano ahead of a countback for
second on net 69 won by Bruce McAdam with Paul Kraft in third.
Bjarne
presents to Toy Theobald the Monthly Mug
This leaves me plenty of time to say the winner of The
Mug with the best score ever in the Mug was Toy Theobald with a net 59.
Seems hard to believe but Toy, who has been a PSC member from practically
the beginning and has a number under 1000, finally got it all together and
for the first time won the Mug. Hubby Fred has a couple on the shelf, so the
set is complete. Toy was so pleased she rang the bell and of course we all
helped to celebrate.

PSC Golf from Bobby Joe’s 60’s Bar
Friday April 30
Century Bang Chang
Stableford
The last competition of the month at the 60’s Bar is
nearly always at Century Bang Chang for several reasons we will not go into,
but a slow bimble down and a relatively good drive back on a Friday night
are pretty much to the fore. Mind some get back before others.
Max
& Bobby with the winners.
On this day the weather was very hot and sticky, but the
course itself was in as good a condition as I have seen it for many a day
and was a pleasure to play. As always this is a tough course and the
philosophy of Bobby’s of a relaxed, fun filled day, usually leads to
mediocre scores with, usually, only one winner. On this day the scores were
pretty average and only two broke handicap.
The winners on the day were ‘Low’ 0 to 18 Mick
O’Connor playing in the A Flight for the first time since Sex was
invented, and in the High, 19 up, Herbie Schwieterman.
Technical
prize winners.
Back at Bobby Joe’s he had prepared ‘Sausages and
Sauerkraut’ in fresh crispy rolls, one of Bobby’s best creations and
enjoyed by all, several times. Then we had an absolute disaster, the last
keg of draught Carlsberg ran out, it had been so good, and we had to drink
the rest. Sad day indeed.
For those who wonder why Max has a sticker on his head in
the photos, he has a rather smart plaster really after laser treatment, but
Bobby thought his sticker looked better.
Reminder that from June, 60’s Bar will be on a Tuesday.

Berra is definitely back again!
Mike Franklin
Philippe Berra proved his return to Pattaya and return to
‘Super Senior’ form by scoring forty-two Stableford points in the April
Diana Seniors & Ladies Open at Pattaya Country Club on Thursday April
29.
‘Steady’ Arthur Bailey claimed the runner-up spot
with a more modest thirty-nine points. Whilst Philippe had the highest
points score of the day, it was Bob Dibben for the Seniors who had the
lowest gross score of 74 and thirty-nine points from his 5 handicap. John
Hurst was just a senior shot behind with thirty-eight.
The ladies did not fare so well with the points as Banjob
Franklin’s thirty-two points was enough to win the ladies trophy. Moon
Schwelera was runner-up with thirty points.
Near Pin technicals were claimed by John Hurst, Moon
Schwelera, Danny Dyke and Heikki Viljaikanen. Bob Pearce sank the longest
putt on the 9th and John Hurst won his second technical on the 18th.
The day was hot with a light breeze eventually getting
up, and the course in generally good condition with the greens firm and, as
usual, difficult to read.
Newcomers to Diana Seniors - Bob & Maralyn Dibben,
Heinz Roembell, Pekka, Heikki, Antti & Vidor were from Scandinavia
welcomed at the prize-giving.
The May Diana Seniors & Ladies Open is on Thursday
May 27 at Pattaya Country Club and you can sign-up for that at the Green
Bottle, or the Diana Driving Range North Pattaya.
3 Sisters Golf
Winner of the month! Jerry Lien! Unbelievable? No,
Jerry’s game has improved tremendously over the past few months. It may go
later but the Golf Gods have been smiling down on Jerry for a while now.
Winner
of the month Jerry Lien and Jim Tully holding the bag.
He has come close the past few weeks and has won
previously but not at the end of the month when it counted. Jerry with a new
shaft on his driver shafted the rest of the field. Hitting his drives long
and straight, he managed to garner 43 points to beat the field by three.
Three points back was Clive Harris. This was one of the
best games that he has shot but it was not enough. 40 points is normally
good but it was not enough for the day.
Following close behind was Terry Curtis with 39 points
and Gerry Carpenter with 38.
Holding the bottom spot for the week was Gerald Holt with 14 points.
Gerald disappeared early so Jim Tully who was second from the bottom took
his place as bag holder for the week. Jim came in with a big 23 points to
slid into the cellar kicking out Gerald who left the scene.
Mickey Mouse Darts League
The only position change in the league this week is
Cheers moves above Palmers as they beat their neighbours in both game and
beer. No change at the top as all four sides played between themselves, with
Pleasure Dome and Smugglers taking all against Rising Sun and PSI
respectively.
Bunker also took all against the Helicopter bar. Only
Windsor Tavern and Devonshire shared the honours with Devonshire winning the
game on the last singles match.
To take away the gloom of Rising Sun’s evening, George
scored a 180.

2004 Admiral’s Cup: Youngsters Thrive
by Peter Cummins, assisted by
“Pattaya Mail” staff
Held off the Royal Varuna Yacht Club last weekend and
managed by the Junior Sailing Squadron of Thailand, through the national
authority, the Yacht Racing Association of Thailand and in collaboration
with the National Youth Platoon Sailing Club, the 2004 Admiral’s Cup for
Optimist sailors (under 16-year-olds), the Admiral’s Cup featured the
largest fleet of young sailors ever seen in Thailand for such an event.
All the
contenders line-up for a group photo.
Used as a preliminary warm-up (as if it is not already
hot enough in Thailand?) for the 2004 Optimist National Championships of
Thailand, to be sailed in Dong Ton Bay, Sattahip, over the second weekend of
May, 54 children faced Rear Admiral Sunan Montardpailin, President of the
Platoon’s , starting signals.
The
winner of female beginner, Nutchaarpha Puangmalai
It was a mix of children from the Thai Navy facilities in
Sattahip, Royal Varuna in Pattaya and a number of youngsters from the
private sector international schools in Bangkok - many sailing for the first
time.
Winds were moderate-to-light, with good courses placed
mid-stream out off Varuna. What a surprise for many of the little ones to
learn that the sea moves quite vigorously at times and one cannot always go
where one intends, with a strong tidal factor. One little fellow, in fact,
according to an onlooker, had about nine attempts to round the windward
mark, with the tide driving him back.
The
winner of female, Angkana Poonsirisawas
But, to rousing cheers from the committee boat he rounded
on attempt # 10 and headed down wind, at some speed pushed by the tide,
grinning triumphantly.
The contestants ranged from a tiny eight years of age up
to 15. There were a number of categories, including under 12, male beginner,
female beginner and Open.
Following the outstanding success of this regatta, Royal
Varuna Yacht Club and the National Youth Sailing Club planned to open
sailing courses, in order to support the youth who were interested in this
sport. They will be tomorrow’s Olympic champions.
The
winner of under 12, Napus Wisitsiri
It was actually very good news for Royal Varuna which is
in the middle of a multi-million Baht re-building programme. Seeing that
many of the non-Thai children are from the big schools in Bangkok and on the
Eastern Seaboard, it will help fill the gap of oncoming youngsters
supporting Royal Varuna.
The winner of
male beginner, Marlon Johnson
One of the
winners of general, Sai Chimsawas

The Square Ring
by Howie Reed
Ever get that warm and fuzzy feeling? Well I did the
other day when I read in the boxing press that Fasan 3K Battery (aka Fasang
Por Tawatchaior or aka Narongt Pirang) was heading off to the USA for a Jr.
featherweight IBF eliminator fight with Art Simonyan (13-0) two weeks from
tomorrow.
The winner will presume to get a title shot against
“very tough Mexican fighter” now living in Los Angeles (but then
aren’t they all) Israel Vazquez (36-3). Got that good feeling, much like
one gets when Teelock say “No want Baht”, because the promoter Art
Pelullo seeing me ringside one night asked me about “3K Battery”.
I told him what I knew which, depending on your view of
this column, is either a lot or not much. Regardless, 3K makes his second
trip outside the Kingdom in his 13 plus years in the ring for this contest.
Though only 29 Fasan 3K has experience to burn. His record of 46-6 is a
little deceiving as he started out 0-4. Since then his only loss came in his
first time outside Thailand with a loss to Mohammad Nurhuda (23-3-3) on
points in Indonesia in 1993. The other lose was to Tony Wehbee on points for
the WBF Super Bantam title in 1995.
Art Simonyan is the kind of fighter that hangs around. He
hangs around to win. He does have a little pop in his punches with 7 KO’s.
I saw him fight “live” against Alejandro Lopez (0-3-4) in Las Vegas
where he escaped with a very “dodgy” split decision. That performance
can be excused as it was only his second pro fight. The match with Fasan 3K
will be on the telly via the ESPN2 Friday Night Fights in the USA. GO 3K.
Boy is there one heck of a couple of fights on Sunday
Morn (Pattaya Time)? The answer is “U Bet”. Bout the time that the big
trucks are coming by to pick up Saturday nights fun left curbside for
disposal living and non living, Manny Pacquiao (38-2-1) will be entering the
ring against Juan Manuel Marquez (42-2) for the IBF/WBA featherweight
championship of the world. This fight from Las Vegas will be a “Pier
9er” from the get go. Why? That’s the only way these two fighters
approach their art. Pacquiao regardless of who faces him in the ring a
boxing match turns into a “fight between two pole hangers for the last
punter at closing time.”
Juan Manual Marquez has become the “Mexican” fighter
of choice. That’s because Pacquiao defeated the preceding “hombre”
Marco Antonio Barerra. Marquez’s head fits the crown. He lost his first
ever pro fight. His second in 1999 to Freddy Norwood. Norwood was “really
good” until he went south and failed to make weight against Derrick
Gainer. Some say Norwood adopted the DuPont motto of “Better Living
Through Chemistry”. It didn’t work as Norwood never fought again.
This will be by far the toughest fight for both
gladiators. “I’m ready for anything Marquez has,” vowed Pacquiao.
“No question in my mind. I will win.”
It’s hard to sneak under the radar when you’re
fighting on a card featuring Marquez-Pacquiao but not impossible. That may
though be the case for Miguel Cotto 19-0 vs. Lovemore N’Dou 38-6-1
fighting at 140 Lb. Cotto is the “real deal”. Lovemore “Gimme More
Baht OR” N’Dou is the type of fighter that almost gets there but always
comes up short. One of these times he won’t.
N’Dou will be the best test yet of Cotto who with a
couple of more fights is going to slide by fighters at 140, 147 or 154 like
corn through a seagull.
The next great heavyweight champion, according to The
Imperial One Lennox Lewis, also gets in the ring on May 8th. Audley Harrison
(15-0) was to defend his worthless WBF Heavyweight title against unbeaten
Nicolay Popov (12-0) in Bristol. Not going to happen. Citing illness Popov
pulled out. That may have been for the best as Popov’s claim to
“fame”, such as it is, was a 8 stanza decision over “Lard Like”
Corey Sanders. The fight prior to that Popov fought something named John
McDermott (16-0). Hummm sounds good. 16-0. He won the fight when he knocked
down McDermott who had to retired with a sprained ankle. Those knockdowns
are dangerous. Oh yes one more minor knock on Popov, his opponents have gone
108-232. Can you say “Tomato Can”? Sure you can.
“But who steps in?” “No, who’s on first.” Sorry
about that. Harrison will now face former British Heavyweight Champion
Julius Francis (23-16-1). Since Francis got clocked by “Iron” Mike Tyson
in 2 he’s had a few “issues” with winning. Since that 2000 bout he’s
gone 2-9-1. Harrison and Francis fought once as amateurs. They still are.
Harrison got the nod back then. “It was a great learning experience for me
but still a loss on my record,” said Harrison. “Now I look forward to
redeeming the loss and continuing to move forward to my ultimate.”
Whoops got caught with egg on my face. I had no idea that
on Labor Day WBC Flyweight king Pongsaklek Wonjongkam (51-2, 28 KOs) was
going to fight Ronnie Canate (18-14-2). Considering the disparity in records
it wouldn’t have looked like much of a contest. “Oh Contre”.
Canate dropped the champ in the first with a left that
struck with alarming suddenness. Never good to wake a sleeping lion or a
sluggish champ. Pongsaklek “angrily” stalked Canate turning out his
lights at 2:25 of the third, using a left hook.
WBC bantamweight king Veerapol Sahaprom (43-1) had more
trouble than expected when it took him 12 rounds to stop Julio Cesar Avila
last Saturday.
Ending with the “what a joke” syndrome. “Iron”
Mike Tyson (50-4) will have his “next” comeback again fight against
Kevin “The Clones Colossus” McBride (31-4) on July 31. This time Tyson
has a field of heavyweights around that are as forlorn as he is. He fits
right in with the other clowns. It’s Mint Julep time.
Anders and the Andettes cheer Blitz: Mighty Dubliner rumble on
MBMG International Casuals League - Week 20
With six games remaining the race for the title is
hotting up, as run away leaders the Scandinavian Vikings and The Mighty
Dubliner vie for the top spot. In Saturday’s televised early game, The
Mighty Dubliner faced a difficult away fixture against form team Bangkok
Glitz and a three o’clock kick off seemed to favour Glitz’s young guns.
Glitz were furthered strengthened by a set of
Scandinavian cheer leaders that arrived just before kick off. It was a
rousing sight for Glitz to see Anders and the Andettes, dressed in hot pants
and wonder bras, waving pom-poms and singing: ‘Blitz Blitz, you’re the
crew. We’re the Scans and we love you!’
Unfortunately, neither the support or the oppressive heat
succeeded in wilting the Mighty Dubliner, as Swiss superstar Mauro Beck
produced a stunning performance giving The Mighty an important 3-2 victory.
After the game, lead pom-pom shaker and singer Anders
Scan was asked if cheer leading was an appropriate occupation for a
Scandinavian Viking, the burly Viking said: ‘Glitz are nice boys. We
Vikings, on our long and lonely ocean voyages know the value of such
things’.
In Sunday’s games Anders and the Andettes had removed
their hot pants and pom-poms and were back to more stereotypical behaviour
rolling over Bangkok United 2-0, keeping them second in the table, with a
game in hand.
The French and the Bullshead are in a real dog-fight for
the third and final champions league spot, both teams winning on the weekend
against SCI and Pattaya, respectively. Now equal on points, next week’s
showdown between the two teams could go a long way to deciding who takes the
financially vital third place. Despite both clubs investing heavily in new
talent at the start of the season, both have failed to live up to
expectations, regularly fluctuating between mediocrity and brilliance.
Insiders from both clubs have suggested that which ever
manager fails to deliver third spot will be ‘a dead man walking’.
Elsewhere, Shrewsbury, in their first season in the
league, moved into a creditable fifth place with a 1-0 win over Patana and
the German All Stars moved off the bottom with a 1-0 win over the misfiring
British Club.
Results Week 20:
Bangkok Blitz 2 - 3 The Dubliner
SCI Gecko FC 2 - 4 Les Gaulois de Bangkok
Racing Club Pattaya 1 - 2 Bulls Head Brazilians
Bangkok United 0 - 2 Scandinavian Vikings
Man of the match: Johan Arvling
Patana 0 - 1 AFC Shrewsbury
British Club Casuals 0 - 1 German All Stars
PH3 Run 1051
The hash is
awesome!
Tuesday morning hangover with a dry mouth, water,
cigarette and a cup of coffee! Sharon is packing and prepares herself for
the last day on the beach. Yesterday was our last hashing day with PH3 for a
couple of weeks or maybe more!
I/we will go back to my beloved daughter and my beautiful
grandson, he’s really awesome, just like his granddad! I do believe that
it’s going to be very cold back in Sweden, even if am a Viking! Whilst in
Sweden I’ll of course visit some of the Swedish hash and see what kind of
hash they are and what kind of traditions they have, if any.
I’ll first concentrate my scribe report on the run and
the hare V.V. As you all know V.V. has become a Belgian icon for the PH3,
even bigger then Fini The Faggot and will always set a run and do anything
for the hash, I believe. He is a true hasher with broken English, just like
me.
Today’s run
Standard bus rides out from town, towards 3240 and Khao
Mai Kao, a nice running area. V.V. informed us about the run, checks are
crosses, FT marked in blue and paper is blue, follow me and off we went. We
ran down a dirt road for a couple of km and into a galley. First check
easily solved and we were on our way again.
Second check had three options and of course I chose the
wrong one FT. I stretched out my long legs to catch up with the front
runners, so I did.
Third check and once again V.V. fooled me another FT, but
this time I was to far behind and decided to cross a tapioca field together
with Lord Lucan, Bottomless pit and Evil Knievel to catch up with the pack
and their we was all up in front again. Fourth check gave us no problem
whatsoever and we soon saw the on in sign. This is the third time in a row
that I was the first one in. As FRB I’ll never shortcut and always do the
whole run, you all know that! It was a nice short run, well done V.V.
Circle time
Sunflower sold raffle tickets and did the raffle; she
iced 99% of the winners. This was her first time ever she had ice power and
she knew how to use it. I took over the circle and iced A-a-Holic’s girl
friend for losing her beer cooler, Sir Airhead for losing his wallet without
money in it.
Pig Pusher Swine Stabber for losing his keys and
sunglasses. I then called in the visitors CIA from USA, Martin Smetsers from
Netherlands and Alfred (Nobel) Stimoli from Australia and handed over a PH3
patches to all of them and wished them all welcome the world famous hash
PH3.
Time for some religion and Sir Airhead entered the circle
and announced Poncho The Pervert a hash hero for bringing a big sandwich to
Sir Airhead (Arse licker). Hares on in. Ups only one hare, where is the
other hare B. Bunny? V.V. told us that he had converted into Islam and
deserted to Afghanistan. Next to be iced was Teeny Weeny, Sir Airhead asked
if he had any Aussie joke to tell us and so he did. The joke was so poor so
Sir Airhead decided to move him from the ice into the ice bucket, splash and
all the ice was gone.
Hash s**t and hash trash on ice. Bottomless Pit the
current hash trash catches Tree Frog throwing her plastic bottle during the
run, naughty girl, Rod Sutherland was also iced since he stuck a bottle into
Seaman Swallow’s trousers, and he was awarded with a pink hash s**t
toilette seat, a hash trash toilette seat and a hash trash helmet, well done
C**nt. Your circle GM.
Next in line were all the anniversaries. Pig Pusher Swine
Stabber was given his veteran shirt from last year. Angel Fly had achieved
50 runs today, Tree Frog and Stupid Kraut K. had achieved 100 runs today.
Very well done! A bunch of returnees (thirty or so) who didn’t show up
last week, because of Songkran was given a down down. Time for some more
religion and Sir C.F. entered the circle and iced Miserable C. for poising
his neighbor’s dog and then throwing it into the rubbish bin. I was the
next one to suffer some ice time, since I was a leaver and my Joint Master
Seaman S. was iced as well. I then told everybody that I have made Sir C.F.
a Joint Master as well, so he also had to sit-down.
Time for the plank and to get Poncho The Pervert, (he
should be named Maxican A. Licker instead) to assist Poncho with the plank.
I called in Free Willy and Seagull S. and placed Poncho in the middle, one -
two - three and all the beer was poured down on Poncho’s neck.
Time for the hare song, but of course V.V. didn’t know
how to sing so the visitor CIA gave him an American song. CIA was then iced
and Sir C.F. sang a really song for both of them. Hash hymn and Seaman S.
ordered everybody hats of cups on the floor on three, three swing low. On on
to TQ and some well earned hot dogs. At TQ Teeny Weeny noticed that Sharon
Tate had a t-shirt from Australia given by him. He asked Sharon how the
shirt could be that well kept, Sharon responded that she takes care of
things she like, Teeny Weeny then said how come that Charlie is that ugly!
A very good hashing day and well pissed. Watch these
colors during World Championship in Ice hockey started April 24.
Sweden 5 v Denmark 1
Sweden 5 v Japan 1
Sweden 3 v Russia 2
Next in line to lose is either USA or Finland.
Sweden will beat all resistance and go for gold!
I’ll deeply miss the hash and all my friends’ whilst in Sweden. Take
care!
On on
Charlie Handsome or Manson
