To all of Steves Friends in Udon, Nong Khai, Khon Kaen, Kalasin, Pattaya and everywhere around Thailand, the UK, Australia, the Middle East, New Zealand, South Africa and the list goes on.

Most Importantly on behalf of Steves Family a Big Thankyou for all the Support over the past few days as its been pretty hard for all that new Steve, particularly the Staff and Close Friends and their are plenty of them. Steve loved you all. My phone has not stopped ringing.

The Funeral arrangements are still not 100% as his mum Ann and Brother Paul are still organizing it back in Shrewsbury but I will post the date when I have confirmation as there are few of us headed back to his home for it.

Tuesday December 22, Next Tuesday, there will be a BBQ and Drinks at the bar starting around 2pm.

There will be a Box on the Bar should anyone wish to chuck in a few quid for his Mum Ann.

I am looking at a few things that maybe we can Auction to also raise a few Quid, will let you know on the day.

Again Thanks to Everyone for their Support.
