May 8, 200917 yr If this is the guy you mean he is still there, well he was Thursday (May 7) night. This was taken at the Snow in Boyz Town Christmas Event 2008. Visit My Website
May 8, 200917 yr He was very vigilant about doing his job of keeping under 18 yo from getting into Ambiance that is for sure. I really do wonder how anyone can "retire" in Thailand without things like social security and pensions. I suppose that is what children are for in your old age.
May 8, 200917 yr No,he s not the one. Yes lol the other Security guy was very dedicated to his job and checked id s well. He was also very friendly. Wish him well in his retirement,maybe........he met a rich farang and eloped .
May 11, 200917 yr I heard that he took some money and fled with one of the maids. I hope that's not the case. He worked there for many years and did not seem to be the type to do that sort of thing.
May 11, 200917 yr The curse of a geriatric memory. About a month ago I talked with the current security guard and asked what happened to the older guy. I don’t recall his answer, but it was something prosaic/unmemorable, like retired (surely not -- too young), went to work some place else, etc. I stayed at the Ambiance for quite a while and we became well acquainted. (No, not that way.) He was always helpful. Even years later he invariably greeted me with a smile and warm words.
May 11, 200917 yr As I understand it, he got into some heavy debt and had to leave the area. This came from a reliable source, but I am not at liberty to discuss it further. I also always enjoyed him and found him to be extremely helpful and professional.
May 11, 200917 yr In other words, there are all kinds of different versions of the story. As for which one is the right one, take your pick. It doesn't really matter. For whatever reason, he's gone and that's that.
