HASH HOUSE HARRIERS

The Hua Hin Hash House Harriers, 2H3H, runs on a couple of Saturdays each month with the dates determined by consensus and weather. On Saturday the 13th of December, we will have a run in honor of a couple of the founders of the 2H3H, Tom and May Crowley. It's been many a run since they have been with us and there is no telling when we will see them again and so we are looking forward to getting together for a good run and a great time after the run on the 13th.
The Hash House Harriers is more social than athletic but we can promise some challenging terrain for runners who really feel the need to earn their beer. Our trails are most often far from the beaten path and often provide a bit of jungle adventure for both runners and walkers.
Visitors are certainly most welcome to join us.
For information on forthcoming runs, e-mail Don at donaltetley@yahoo.com. Also, see Jim at "Coconuts" in Hua Hin or Jit at the "Chicken Coop" in Cha Am.

MILFORD - END OF AN ERA

Bangkok Golf has been operating Milford Golf club under a lease agreement for the past 5 years. Unfortunately, due to an inability to renew our lease, Bangkok Golf will cease to operate at Milford on December 15th 2003.
During our time of operation we are proud to have taken Milford, from an unplayable pile of rock, to an exciting challenge for the golfer, with the best greens you could possibly play on. Love it or hate it, Milford is probably the toughest test of golf in Thailand.

I would like to take this opportunity to offer my thanks to the many individuals, companies and organisations who have supported us during our time here. Notably the tour companies, Hua Hin Tours, Sweethai and Scandinavian Golf Tours have been very supportive and I can recommend their professional services to all. Many thanks also to the Hua Hin Golf Society; who in the early stages of our reconstruction gave me solid support. I would like to single out, for special thanks, Mr. Berny Morgan, who gave me solid support and encouragement throughout my time at Milford.

Although Bangkok Golf will no longer be involved in golf in this area we are still operating and expanding our facility in Bangkok. Only 15 minutes from the airport, it's an excellent venue for a stopover on your way in or out of Bangkok.

Hua Hin will, in future years, become the premier golf destination in Thailand.

Unfortunately Bangkok Golf will not be a part of that. To all friends and customers. Happy golfing.
