I just created a little online store for my Restaurant & Bakery, where I also sell Coffee Beans. We use the brand Delta in our Restaurant. In my humble opinion this is some of the best coffee I have had. They are planted, grown, harvested and roasted on the same property. I have quite a few regulars that come by and get the beans here.

Have a look here:

Cheers will put in an order tomorrow

How strong do you like it

Ok l have taken the plunge.

Ordered a auto coffee maker and grinder but have no knowledge of good or bad coffee beans, have read there is some real yukky ones out there.

Could any experience coffee drinkers recommend your favorite brand and where to get it. l drink it black and no sugar.

Cheers

In HCMC go to Saigon Optic on Pham Ngoc Thach just off Dien Bien Phu.

 

About $20 for a pair of lenses like yours. I have the same type as you and always get mine there.

 

They will do the eye test there to get your prescription and measure the eye distances etc. Usually takes 3 days max.

 

They don't have such a good choice of frames though.

 

 

Thanks for your suggestion l will certainly check it out, looks like im going in Feb had to cancel November.

Is there English good and frames strong?

Cheers

Hi all

l live in Thailand and am going to Ho Chi Minh City Vietnam in November for a week. My present glasses frames are just about done,l have read so many threads on how expensive glasses are here and so many bad reports,yet the exact opposite is for Vietnam much less expensive and so many good reports.

My glasses are progressive ,scratch resistant and transition.

l was hoping to get some uptodate ideas from people that have done it recently and any reccomendations.

Cheers

Yes, it's certainly a Bromeliad, which as the others have said requires a free draining mix such as coconut chips, and shade. The plant in your pic actually looks to be in good condition ....do they look 'sick" after flowering ? Bromeliads put out a side shoot, or 'pup" after flowering and then the old plant starts to die off ....it usually takes more than 2 weeks though !

Cheers for the info.

Looked better before l bought it, Yes a side shoot has just begun flowering l noticed this morning.

Lots of coconut husk, they don't like compacted soil.

I have similar plants in both 30% and 7o% sunlight, both seem to do fine.

They like lots of water as long as it can drain in the light soil / coconut.

Cheers for the tip

I don't have one. BUT: not too much water (drainage OK?) and not full sun. I am still looking for the name in the recesses of my 'brain'.

What do you mean by sad? yellow leaves...?

Browning on sides of flower and the leafs then death on the the other 2 l had. Got them in shade water them twice a week.

For the life of me l cannot work out what l'm doing wrong, they come in yellow and red look beautiful when l buy them but after a couple of weeks start looking sad, l'm not a green thumb, matter of fact didn't give 2 hoots about plants before l moved here. l have tried the plant apps but no luck.

So can any green thumbs out there give me some advice how to look after them.

Cheers

Hi

 Thinking about putting a garden waterfall in my beer garden. l have all the rocks ( Those red volcanic honeycomb ones) Not interested in having fish, just falling water.

l have been looking for a place to find the plastic liners but that seems to be difficult. Have searched the forums but they are old posts with the same problem. Never done anything like this before so  any advice would be good. Have watched youtube but of course finding the  bits and pieces here is hard.I'm in the Kalasin area.

Thanks in advance

Very hard to find, even in Bangkok.  (Villa Market occasionally has it.)

 

However, you can order it online:
