Back in July i took over a beach bungalow resort on Koh Chang.The low season here is lower than a snakes belly and only very recently has it started to pic up.Being new to the trade i am prepared to expect the unexpected.One trend that has already become quite common is customers leavig items behind.T-shirts, sunglasses, bar girls and last week someone forgot to collect something they had left in the safe.This morning i discovered it is an expensive looking electrical gadget thing that plays music videos etc. No bloody idea how it works.Soooooooooooooooo how long am i supposed to look after these things before taking ownership?

sheesh complicated ethical question.

how much you want for the music video thingy?

Zeus - let me figure out how to download the homemade vidoes 1st

Spiroidal - that was my timescale

Ghee - If i am having to store things for 6 moths i will need to build another room

90 days is plenty of time for the lost and found dept!! Finder's keepers........loser's weepers lol......

Macca...I think you have to hire a bargirl-collector then :-)

Poul - is that an offer? Let me know your terms and conditions

Be a gent and post these objects back to their owners........lol

Hmmmmm Seem like you have already done this Years Christmas shopping

Without leaving the Island, Well Done 555

hours at least...especially with bar girl coz she might still be on the clock...

Waza - yeah right, they forget it and i pay. Not goinng to happen

Gav - same wavelength

Lizardo - good poimt.

Very strange though. I have heard so many stories of ladies losing mobile phones and gold but nothing here yet

about 1 week ... with the bar girls i reckon they'll decide themselves when it's time to cut their losses and leave !!!

items left in the rooms are customarily the property of the cleaner-as for stuff left in the safe, it's obviously a tip for the management!! i expect a brighter, shinier, newer one will be claimed on the travel insurance!!

Good point Steve.

Still have no idea how the bloody thing works.

He could have left an instruction book, damn inconciderate

google it lol

give them away after sometime
