Lawn
Bowling in Kamala
Jürg Brand, who organized the
event, welcomed the Swiss
Friends to Kamala.
Lawn bowling was not yet known
to many Swiss Friends, but the
interest was great and it was
both interesting and fun to try
out this sport. After a somewhat
chaotic start, the rules
gradually became more familiar
and ambition grew. Two teams of
three played against each other
on the five starting lanes. After
eight rounds, the winners were
determined and the restaurant
welcomed us with a delicious
buffet. Many thanks to the
organization and the owners for
the good food and moderate
prices! |

Blue
Beach Cafe & Restaurant, Patong Beach
The first meeting of ‘Swiss Friends Phuket’ at the Blue
Beach Restaurant Patong was a
complete success. Marc Alder,
member of the organising
committee, welcomed 43 members
and briefly explained how the
new association came into being.
The unpleasant events on the
board of the Swiss Society had
prompted many to turn their
backs on this association and
found a new community. Within
just two months, 74 members had
already signed up. The society
does without an annual
membership fee, statutes and
even a president, which made
some of those present laugh.
However, many Swiss friends seem
to like these conditions.
Marc Alder drew attention to the
next ‘Lawn Bowling’ event on 22
April 2025 in Kamala. Details
and invitations for this event
will follow shortly.
The Blue Beach Restaurant proved
to be very professional in terms
of organisation and quality. The
live music was also excellent
and members chatted late into
the night.
The meeting of the ‘Swiss Friends Phuket’ was not only a
proof of the successful
foundation of the new community,
but also a wonderful evening
full of conviviality and joy. |
