salon to open today...

well my latest salon venture is due to open today and most of you are invited. those who are unwelcome will know who they are *two fingers* it's be a challenge to get this particular salon off the ground cos we employed a different set of builders/ tradesmen than before.. this lot were more like

my thanks goes to those who have helped with advice, encouragement & practical assistance. especiall the member who shall remain nameless who fitted a door blind thingy for us :)

we will be serving champagne on the patio in front of the salon & a finger buffet selection will be provided on picnic tables. i do hope you will be able to join us in this happy occasion. i reckon if i can get an otter 3 or 4 salon on the go, that should be enough to keep me in beer :)

question is when will this salon start to make a profit?

MH & i will be arriving in style, as befits us.

Shame really.

Are you going to invite us to this grand opening? I'll bring the twiglets.

Good luck with it Mr and Mrs 'H'. I'd guess it might be a time before you saw a profit on your investment what with the competition. One thing the Sois of LOS seem awash with are salons and launderies. Once you have built up your customer base though you'll have a constant long-term income what with the bizarre need that women seem to have for having ther hair washed daily....For men, hair washing is a last resort to get rid of the insects that won't come out from rubbing the head furiously, but women seem to enjoy it...And don't get me started on shampoo....honestly, don't.

I would drop by and pay a visit, but sadly I dont know the location. In cool season I might meader up and down the sois of Sukumvit, but not in hot season.

where's Taffy? we have an english mans house to burn down taffy :)

Oh Joy.
Getting a boner at the thought.

I notice the open invite comes with no address, anyone got it??

Good luck in your venture Harry. I don't know any of the circumstances so I can't comment on it's profitability but I hope it's sooner rather than later.

Well I sure as hell dont!!

Apparently not - no one knows where the place is. I am sure this place will be a success......

I was one of da lucky ones who knew where Harry has his shop on KSR. I suppose the experience is well worth the B50 and 5 minutes per cut.

Good luck hazz! - it's normal to have to build up your customer base, so don't get too worried if you have a few quiet months to begin with. Here's a good fortune cat for you anyway....

Yes all the best Harry, I shall see when it's convenient to bring Mme Pooly down to sit in the corner and remain silent and smile a lot. She'll enjoy that!

I'll be after some champers meself!!

For a small consideration I promise NOT to bring my children.

well, where is it? if its in southend, i aint going.

We're pretty selective who we let into Sarfend these days, drug addicts asylum seekers, crooks and currency traders only I'm afraid.

Good luck mate

I really can't remember the amount of times the wife of a farang man has asked me for comission on the work I do, I just tell erm to fok right off, but they still ask, but I feel sure that the Thai building companies pay the issan whores a percentage to keep everything happy, not that harry is married to a issan whore I might add, I was just going off on tangent about my work and the greedy issan whores who want percentage out of what their husband spends.

Harry where does your young lady come from?

I haven't been to a salon for errrr... 6-7-8 months? Hmm.. I don't remember. So, sorry that you will never get my money, Mr. & Mrs. Harry.

Why not AO?

Harry is a bit of a nutter but he seems harmless enough.

if your a thai then it's not your money that we're after. we are appealing to the high rolling farangs & japs of the thong-lo area.

right then. the open day party went swimmingly for the most part. at some point in the evening someone had the bright idea to suggest we start doin' hair for FREE, i had to sit down & rest awhile for that one to sink in. so the gals got to work doing cuts, nails, facial massages and even hair coloring... i'm pleased to report that ppl. startertd to feel sorry for us so handed out tips as we weren't charging them. i estimate that we got somewhere between 1500 & 1900 in tips, which we split 3 ways between the gals. i spent considerably more than that on champers & the finger buffet, but that was a legit business expense. today is the first day when we will be charging, so we'll prolly only get a couple of cheap charlies looking in :) there were so hi-so ppl. at the bash, in fact the owner of our propertry was there & she was best pleased at what we'd done to the place. we still haven't got the sign up or the tables & chairs out but that'll be in the next day or so. the manager did mention something about the possibilty of us using the large patio area in front of our small patio for more tables chairs & umbrellas, we could then sell more in the way of beverages etc. have to think on that.

so while the gal is playing salons today, i'm off scouting for new premises. sadly MH has run out of cash after going 50-50 with me on the last venture. i figure to spend between 200-500 sorting out the next one. if anyone is interested in a share of the enterprise then by all means contact me. i've never been lucky in love but have always been lucky where money is concerned, plus i am motivayed by the fact that if i don't succeed i may have to teach *yuck*

Ya girls trim my pubes for me Hairy? Shave my back maybe? I'll be out that way in a few weeks.
