  1. Because bacteria form quickly in a dead lobster, it's important that it be alive when you buy it. To make sure, pick up the lobster-if the tail curls under the body it's alive. This test is especially important with lobsters that have been stored on ice because they're so sluggish that it's sometimes hard to see movement.

  2. so if you park outside Faultys and go in for a pint, do you still get charged?

    also, are they charging thais? if not tell em to get fked.

    Since the Brilliance of the One-Way system, I find it easier to park on Soi SanSabai and short-cut the dirtroad back to the apartment. Daytime and Nightime, it's just an easier way than taking the scenic loop (one-way) back to the apartment.

    So I was surprised to see ticket collectors approaching motorcycles when they park now. 20 bath. They're out in the afternoon, and through the late evening.

    Until this year, this was a dead end Soi, known for its' late night afterhours crowds and food and cheap rooms They opened it up, and I assumed it was a public road.

    A few nights ago, when asked to pay 20 baht, I asked why. I park here everyday. Who's parking lot is it anyway? They replied quickly with Khun XXX's name. I guess it still is a private street.

    I'm assuming it's the same owner as the New Mercure hotel, the long extablished boss that we all hear mumblings about.

    err faulty's be on soi sunset not san sabai,innit

    OK, here's my 20 baht I said.

    Today, I parked on a different street. :o

    err faulty's is in soi sunset not soi sansabai,innit!
