It's as simple as buy low sell high lower

 

You must got damned rich with this rule as you obviously know when a low is a low and there is no lower.

Xaos, help! What should we do, load up, sell or write off? Xaos, it's Chaos!

I have been buying Malee 100% fruit juice from Makro.  Orange, grape, pineapple, apple etc..   It has no added sugar.  No carbs and very few calories.  (some other brands are loaded with sugar).

I also like to make ice tea with Lipton original tea which is available at most of the small convenient stores.  One tea bag in a mug then put in a pitcher full of ice, sometimes with lemon.

 

And what about the natural fructose?

OP, your flexibility is amazing! Why must it be Australian products, seems you need home out of home. Rant more.

They all deserve it. Same as wedding arrangements on Maldives islands were the master of ceremonies of hotels made a jokes or even insulting comments in Hindi (?) during the wedding on the beaches.

Why the OP didn't tell us if it's only with the same food stall? Old fellow, make an exclusion project out of this, same as with car repairs.

or drink a brandy after the meal!

Nobody would say something if it was in deep Isaan or Mae Hong Son area and it would be perfect possible. But right out of downtown Bangkok to Kanchanaburi where every 15 minutes goes a bus for a few Baht it's out of my mind. And then able to party on a house boat there for several nights. Simply morons.

Trying to do it right out of downtown Bangkok ?.

They do not seem the sharpest knives in mother's kitchen drawer!

Quite an interesting topic. Obviously Thais are reluctant to eat but seem to prefer for beauty treatment.

But might it be of interest, to discuss this with farang chefs of restaurants with international/french cuisine to put escargots in chili garlic on their menu? I could imagine quite a few tourists would love to order them for a starter.

There are 2 booklets in the FAO "Better Farming" series about snail farming. Google and you can download them.

For export, it would take quite a long time, so top restaurants in the big Thai tourist centres may be an option.

Who likes to be disturb during lunch?

No not water .  I can only think of  news stories about the mahout beating the elephant who then gets upset and stamp on him .  

 

A couple of years ago we had a Scot who was killed in Thailand thanks to an idiot of a mahout . 

 

"Witnesses said that in the moments leading up to the attack, Golf had appeared upset and was refusing to follow Pamang's instructions, causing him to hit the elephant with a stick until he obeyed.

Golf then attacked Pamang with its trunk before goring him in the chest with a tusk and rearing on its hind legs.

Eilidh and her father were thrown from its back and the elephant then stomped and gored the father before running into a nearby forest.

Witnesses said that just before the attack, the elephant - known as Golf - had appeared upset and refused to follow the instructions of the mahout who hit him several times with a hook. "

 

 

 

That happens some time, most probably  more often than we think because who reports of incidents of working elephant in e.g. Myanmar.

But plenty of incidents on Youtube of temple elephants in India.

Male elephants in must are most dangerous.

Last month, there was an incident with2 elephants at an performance at Germa y's biggest circus where one elephant pushed another from the side and the attacked one fell close to spectators. The comment says, that the 2 elephants had already a quarrel the night before (bitch quarrel). The video clip shows, the mahouts (girls) had no chance to stop it.

That is also the reason why elephants are leg chained at night in zoos. You never know when a hierarchy dispute breaks out.

As you all see, the elephant doesn't like going into the pool, 555!

Elephants have a great memory and will probably remember who did this to him/ her and if he gets a chance, stamp on them . Happened before.

 

 

 

 

Source! Elephant stamped on mahout because he/she had to go in a pool filled with water. Did they had to force the elephant into the pool repeadetly?

Elephants should be walking around the jungle.

Simple as that.

Tell that the elephants on the Zambezi river. By the way, it is in Africa.

Anything that an elephant wouldn't do in its natural habitat likely isn't right.

Search on youtube

"Elephant Swimming across the Zamezi River"

Ok, it's an African elephant, so it might make a big difference for you. Tell this elephant, what he is doing is not right. Next time he will be relocated into the Namibian desert or Canada.

And don't tell us it's a fake!

I'm hoping to die a sudden death, after an excess of beer and hookers, rather than a lonely lingering death, after lots of medication.

Hopes die last. But with the right amount of viagra it may work.

It is a splitted deal, she care for you, you care for her. Is that so hard to understand? 

Not for me!  But for those whose wife sees a better deal and divorce happens, house gone and 10 Baht gold investment down the drain.

And on the opposite side, the Isaan farang who realizes that his former 8 tilac degraded to a mere 2, so off he his straight to Pattaya for an upgrade.

Not every Isan or poor woman support their family, and not every Isan woman is a gold digger. She want a good life, and some do understand they do not need to beg for money, because being in a relationship, provides benefits without asking. 

 

What she did before is not always related to work bar. 

And the money must come from the farang, if you don't want to wait for the girl to come from work! Simple as that!

Well some is smarter and more clever than others, and not necessery related to if they are a 10 or not. I have seen girls way below 5, manage to get quite good catches on their hook. 

Same valid for men. Some six pack body get a 6 which drops to a3 with age and some with a body drum get 8 to 10s, depending on the wallet.

I forget to say, some people who come from poor backgrund (not necessery Isan) is really smart, and have done what they could do in their best way to be attractive to men and catch one. Fishing ladies I call them. They single out their targets where some do catch and release, and others, keep their trofe! 

What a wisdom! That's simple nature, in humans and animals, in men an women. Women select (marry) upwards, men downwards.
