Is DDave still around? Tried contacting him last time I was in town but without success.

Last time I saw him he was doing some work for another board member who's name escapes me.

Saw him at KS's funeral. Living in Jomtien now and doing fine.

From tourist to expat to back to Europe to part time LOS to months in LOS to now.

I'm not dead yet.

Hi folks.
Heard of Khun Sanuk passing from Stickman site when it happened. Met him several times.
After 7 years of no visiting here, now in retirement, I am contemplating coming back to Thai for good.

Own my home, still married to the same Thai woman, our daughter is a student in Australia, UNI.

Great to see someone else contributing 👍

Do you know anything about Rugby?

Anyone knows what happened with Pattaya127?  He was an avid poster, at some stage RIP Khun Sanuk asked him to reduce how many posts he was making (I saw it at the Mods board, when I was a Mod nanaplaza).
He was OK, no nonsense, even exchanged pictures and personal data with him, knew his name and contacts. 20 years ago. Hope and wish he is well.

I feel off the board right after Dan Davis (Sumdom) died.  Missed that KS has left us as well.

Khun Sanuk died???    Oh no...he was younger than me.  I met him in 1999 at Nanaplaza.  A very nice guy from The Netherlands.

And more have gone, including DumSoda, Flash, and others.

Worth noting, that several more, have had a close call with the 4 horsemen, and still yet roam.

Yeah, the list keeps getting longer… although I’ve noticed several longtime posters here have suspiciously disappeared from this forum over the years… Of course, some have moved on but others may be gone as in underground? I’d like to think that everyone I’ve ever met in the LOS is doing well these days, but of course, I know some are no longer with us. Sadly, many of the remaining crew may not be far behind...

The only ‘bright-side’ to it is that probably all, or at least most, of the girls I have ever met in the LOS are still alive – as they were all so much younger than me (but do any still remember me? I wonder...)!

I check in occasionally every year when I return to Thailand, but the focus on the board has shifted away from being Thai-centric, so very little of what is posted has to do with my visit, and topics regarding night life don’t get the attention that they once did….understood as natural evolution and attrition is to be expected and the remaining regular participants have different interests which may no longer reflect the original intent of the old Nanaplaza.com board. 
 

This year is the first when I haven’t met up with at least one of my old friends, either through their passing or competing interests elsewhere. Each year I think this will be my last visit but I end up staying longer when I do return, and enjoy it in a different way each time. Although I’ve never lived in Thailand I must have spent at least 3 years of my life here in total over the last 35+, so I’ll keep returning as long as I am able.
