Demolition of old DJ Plaza continues....not much left to knock down...but the toilet block is still there !!!

Used the re-opened Immigration office in Patong this week for 90 day Reporting.....very impressed with number of staff available and the sp*edy efficiency of the service....

A number of friends have asked me to keep this Facebook site operating, at least for a while, to keep them up to date with possible developments....happy to do so...can also check for updates on my personal page.....

Been removing fixtures and fittings from the bar today...most of it seems to be in my covered driveway !!! Will be a sale coming up soon ....watch this space !!!

Weather warning for Phuket and Andaman waters....now until Wednesday....be warned !!!

That's it for the day...and what a beautiful day it has been...time to log off....have glass of chilled white wine (may be 2 or even 3)...and psyche up for the rugby...Baa Baas vs Lions coming up soon !!!!

Scorcher of a day...should be a fantastic sunset. Just perfect for a sundowner....sounds tempting....great way to end a Phuket day and start a Phuket evening...

Beautiful day Monday...and Tuesday has dawned with more sunshine and clear blue skies..not a cloud in sight !!! Another Phuket Paradise day is with us....

Morning has broken in Phuket...and at 6am it was worth seeing..now the sun is shining and we have blue skies...just hope it lasts !!! Yesterday was stormy and very wet....problems and damage as big waves sank longtails and left some tourists stranded for a while.....take care and stay safe, it's a dangerous time of year !!!

Still stormy...raining....and warnings to stay off the ocean and drive with great care...dangerous conditions !!!

Just after midday....The sun has gone to sleep as another stormy squall brings more rain to Patong....

A rather wet and soggy Visakha Bucha Day...stormy couple of hours in Patong through the afternoon...today has started with blue skies, let's hope we are in for a truly Phuket Paradise day....

Today is Visakha Bucha Day in Thailand. A most important day sometimes informally called "Buddha's Birthday", it actually commemorates the birth, enlightenment (nirvāna), and death (Parinirvāna) of Gautama Buddha. We wish everyone a happy and peaceful day.....

Weather alert has been issued that affects Phuket. Severe weather expected especially Thursday and Friday with 80% chance of rain...warnings of potential flooding and landslips....take care !!!

Oh dear...very wet start to the morning ...steady rain and thunder rumbling around the Island. Phuket is a soggy Paradise today !!!

Phuket News: Cyclone ‘has no effect’ on Phuket

Higher waves around Phuket, they said, are because of a strengthening of the southwest monsoon, and not the cyclone. This is driving waves to heights of around two metres, and rain is expected by the weekend. Small boats are advised to stay onshore from Friday to Sunday (May 17-19).

Conditions will improve from Monday (May 20), with rain abating.

Scorcher of a day yesterday...had to take refuge in The Irish Times and take on cool liquid until it was safe to go outside again...then a quick beer in Nanai Road before been forced by Mark Bristow and SJ to chill out in Phuket Island Lager Bar. What a day !! Good fun...probably do it all again today....another Phuket paradise moment !!!
