Yes, he was on our last Forum Zoom! Also, he is very active on Facebook and is doing well, considering the lack of tourists to Thailand.
Yes . . . it seems that Andy has found another “family” of friends & happiness in his new locale. Very happy for him. With respect to Andy’s SBH legacy — and a song that came to be identified with the Hideaway location — proprietor / chef of Zion Restaurant, Jean-Baptiste, has told me that people coming into Zion sometimes ask if he can play “Sweet Caroline!”

We ran into Alain and Thierry last night, they were having drinks together at Bar de l'Oubli...

Love the place. Hate the song.
Zion is great but I miss the Hideaway a lot. To me it was the cross roads of St Bart's. I still remember how one night as we showed up for dinner, Andy looks at me and said something like "Oh you are regulars, get a drink, here's the wifi password and I'll get your table ready." Made us feel like we belonged there. I think that's he how made a lot of people feel which was why it was such a great place. Despite that song.

D’accord! There undoubtedly have been a few exceptions, but I would say that Andy subscribes — even to this day — to the words of Will Rogers, “I never met a man I didn’t like!” Andy . . . true???
