The difference of NaCl and "Sel de Guérande" or "Fleur de Sel" is the solubility as this "Gros Sel" will not add a salty taste but remains as cristalls on the food.

Also the cristalls in butter remain intact and on the french menu is "Boeuf gros sel" very popular.

Impurities : Sel may contain traces of fish and crab

I guess Carrefour in LOS.

Could be fully booked in this periode.

here is accurate information

beware of TUK TUK drivers and tourist guides outside Grand Palace and Wat PO if you are on your own for the first time in Bangkok.

Thanks for the answers. I will collect and try some in DEC 06 .

And to be correct I haven't seen white urchins but urchins with short black and white spikes.

"Is there some chemical reaction going on as everyday day I see moisture on top of the salt cellar similar to perspiration ?"

Yes OP you made a correct observation. Salt is hygroscopic.... is attracting water

On Ko Adang I had seen local people opening sea urchins and collecting the inside of the nice and aboundant sea dwellers.

In Marseille/Cassis (South France) they are a delicacy in springtime and collecting is highly regulated and the sea is cold and rough.

Around Ko Leepae the water is warm and I could collect them while snorkeling. Anybody knows wich ones in the Andaman sea/gulf of Thailand taste mouth-watering ? Long vs.short spikes, black vs. black and white ?

Maybe someone enforces the use of exact abreviations when posting in this forum like

I agree with you and I refeer to the Birmingham link in an other thread.

And immigration will not count the days someone stayed in LOS on each of the 3 stamps.

I guess nobody here knows how the 3 rd triangle shaped stamp (in a period of .... days) will look like

""Somlong" or "Songlon" or something like that" = Sanam Luang ??

this is from The Royal Thai Consulate - Birmingham for Visa Applications

(http://www.thailand-visa.com/x.pro/ModShow/ShowPage/30761)

" In addition to this anyone who has entered the three times in succession without a valid visa will be automatically barred from entering the Kingdom under any circumstances for 90 days from the date of the last exit."

I am not yet in Thailand, still working in Switzerland, but when I read this to the letter like "three times in succession without a valid visa" I conclude to the letter that with a succesion of 30 d stamp followed by 60(90) d visa by 30 d stamp will never give the famous 90 d 3 stamps in 180 d and never 3 times in succession, if the visa for 60 days is granted on the basis I have the rigth ....

I agree with maestro get a visa you have enough time to get it when leaving 21 st oct.

When it is really day 31 that you are leaving 02.30 am

- check if you can do an (early) check-in on day 30 to pass immigration before 12.00 pm

- if not possible check with immigration on arriving if you can report to immigration at airport on day 30

jdinasia :

For the next 3 months you can do a 30 day run so .....

how to bring in accord with what the Royal Thai Consulate Birmingham writes on the link posted in this thread ?

3. You hold a confirmed air ticket to leave the Kingdom within 30 days direct from a Thai airport. Please note that you must travel by air and travel from an airport outside of Thailand does not count.

Finally I understand why I was not allowed by Jordan security last DEC in Amann to have my 3 bottles of red wine in my hand luggage on the AMM BKK flight wich were not a trouble from ZRH to AMM.

Seated passengers and freight = total pay load. 100 kg extra last minute freight payes more than 1 discounted pax.

Thanks for replies. I go for a round bottemed and have to browse the shops as I do not find this extension rings on the web. The factories I contacted replied as sometimes in LOS with "No have" when they did not understand the problem.

I found only reduction rings for the Italian espresso machine.

What is your preference when using a wok and did you find any differences in the cooking result when using a flat or a round wok or any other pan ?

And are there extension rings to buy to hold a round bottom wok on top of a standart houshold flat gas cook stove ?

Today is the first warm day in Switzerland

Perscription sunglasses could be a problem because the color may be brought to the lenses by some do it yourself methode or is made in certified factory.

I have one green pair from Hongkong know the lenses are grey.

there is also a problem with the hard coating: is it on the lenses and really what you paid for.

Maybe a good indication can be the time needed to produce the lenses.

Do you know the price in UK ?

In Switzerland we sell it for 30€./ 7.5 g

It must be cheaper in France or the Netherlands as i read complaints from german vets in theirs respective forums.
