Hi I'm Mel myself and Wen opened the Swan about 3 months ago, i have kept quiet on the forum to see what feedback comes in The bar is a small with glass doors and aircon for when it starts to get warm there is a section outside for people who want to smoke,at the moment the swans opening times  are 12 to 12 but when we start doing food opening time   will be 10-30. I chose the location because we are not overlooked and i do believe in bars being close to each other this meaning customers can come to the area and walk to other bars, about one week after opening Brian came up to the bar and wished me good luck and his thoughts were the the same as more bars in the area was good so thankyou. I would also like to thank the customers over the first 3 months for there support thanks Mel and Wen

29 farangs you say. Sure you did not have double vision.

As I understand you live in Surin,Alan. So maybe you do not go passed as many times as I do. I go passed every day, sometimes twice a day. Never seen more than about 10 farangs at a time.



He's a builder,it must have been an estimate  ;D
I can count mate , one thing I am good at !
Never did very well in English though ... lol ...
Maybe that's why I'm not in a office ,shame I quite fancied  the idea of the Secretary bending over picking up my paper work , are well cant win um all ...

I agree about competition - the Falang bars there are then you have choice, and more reason for Falangs to keep coming back. This is not just about serving the resident expat community but it is also good for them to have a choice.

Mel is a very tolerant individual, he is even pleasant to us Yanks.  Of course it helps that I buy one of his ciders.
