Re: Revamp at Poolsuk Plaza

Revamp at Poolsuk Plaza
Did I read this week that the almost defunct Poolsuk Plaza has been revamped & re-branded..? Maybe now goes under the title 'Hua Hin beach Club.'.? The snippet I saw it was gonna cater for a broad range of folk...kids club, yoga/aerobics, then maybe beers after dark..? Any more news about this..??

Re: House Bricks
Just as caller explains..This little brick-works is great. They do ornate slabs also..Standard bricks are dense & heavy, and there is an option of 'lego' style red bricks also..I got the standard smooth-topped ones at 12b each, plus 100b for delivery..The staff are friendly towards farangs also.
