Guest HonoluluJimmy Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 What is going to take it place? I heard that all of Washington Square was going to be replaced with a large hotel. Might be wrong though. I know the rumour has been going on for a while but I was told it is a done deal this time. Anyone know for sure? cheers, Mark[/quote yes, it will be Soi Arab and the Irish bar is already bringing in the IRA brom Dublin... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patella Posted May 21, 2011 Report Share Posted May 21, 2011 Did Kurt ever return to BKK? His blog left him in Texas with no updates since March 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flashermac Posted May 21, 2011 Report Share Posted May 21, 2011 I see Mekhong Kurt posting on Facebook now and then. Not sure where is though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cavanami Posted May 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2011 Kurt has been back in Cowboy land for the last few months and not sure when (if) he will return. >What's Dean Barrett going to do with his heroes now? ...don't forget Chris Moore and his character, Calvino...maybe move on to the NNB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flashermac Posted May 21, 2011 Report Share Posted May 21, 2011 I've never got into Chris Moore's books. Maybe the fact that the first one I picked up began with pages of a guy describing his gonorrhea sort of put me off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Munchmaster Posted May 21, 2011 Report Share Posted May 21, 2011 A mate of mine (a reliable source) has confirmed to me about the closing of the Texas Lonestar. He also told me that the Cats Meow has already closed and that the Silver Dollar has another 6 months. So it looks like WS will be no more soon, which is a real shame as it was one of my preferred places to hang out, especially daytime / early evening.

The_Munchmaster Posted May 21, 2011 Report Share Posted May 21, 2011 He also passed on the tragic news that Dave of the Hare and Hounds daughter was killed in a motorbike accident last Tuesday. I think the funeral is today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radioman Posted May 21, 2011 Report Share Posted May 21, 2011 It does rather sound as if the whole of the WS area really is ready for the dozer. It's certainly looked ripe for such for a long time. Regularly drink in the corner bar, 65Bt beer all night, is that Denny's? Think they currently have the worlds oldest BG. LK mentioned in another thread that the ownership suggested nothing much could change but sounds awfully like a change is coming sooner rather than later.
