Booze! Women! Mangoes! Booze! Men! Pointy sticks! Elections! Snakes! Booze! and Booze! Henry Beauchamp remembers. Just.
Things just aren't as good as they used to be. Except the gin. Join Henry Beauchamp on a stroll down a fading memory lane.
Retired in Chiang Mai after working in Thailand and elsewhere in Asia for over forty years, these stories are an old British man’s reminiscences and thoughts.
These tales are some of the problems and adventures that came to John Shaw MBE from British citizens when he was Honorary British Consul in Chiang Mai from 1990 to 1995. Some stories are sad, others hilarious; have a read. They are true.
