  1. A Bolton lad who doesn't like Marmite?? You're off my next Christmas card list now.
  2. Thank you for the replies, I'll see what l can get. I should have said I'm going from BKK to JFK via Taiwan. Thanks again.
  3. Got a 16 hour non stop flight coming up, did it before and tried some over the counter natural sleep aids (can't remember the name) but didn't work. Anyone used any specific brand and found them to work? Thanks not to suggest Mekong whiskey etc. Thank you.
  4. I have a VPN which l have been using overseas to watch the BBC etc. Back in Thailand for a while and tried to download BBC iPlayer on a Huawei tablet. The VPN is set to the UK but when l go the download iPlayer in Google play store, it says 'app not available in playstore in your region' Any ideas please? Thanks.
  5. I am in Haiti now, so any pizza sounds delicious.
  6. 7/11 have 'Rock lce' that certainly may be an option for you.
  7. Just to be clear... You have an ice machine that you brought from Switzerland, you prefer Mont Fleur. However, the cost of electricity is expensive and the time to freeze water is long.. Also the shape of local ice is gross... (Don't take offense)
  8. I've had them from Villa but only found Villa 33 and Thonglor.
  9. I failed to add the image of what l would like to bake
  10. I'll see what the red SAF is like and try a different after that.. I make 'artisan' bread as l have have a Dutch oven and it's no knead. I'll try for a crusty loaf in a square tin one day.... Thanks for your feedback.
  11. Being a novice bread maker l didn't know there are different yeasts. I usually use the gold SAF instant yeast, but saw they have different types I've ordered the red as l don't add sugar to my bread recipe but curious if anyone has tried it already? https://www.lazada.co.th/products/saf-instant-yeast-i2839983354-s10364540822.html?spm=a2o4m.tm80108896.min-pdp.1.67069RYP9RYPtC.67069RYP9RYPtC
  12. Kenny, I just use it basically as a slow whisk/stirrer for 2 - 3 minutes and don't proof mine twice. It sounds like your making a more professional bread than mine. Best of luck.
  13. I use a danish bread whisk as l only bake 1 at a time every couple of days and don't have a mixer.. Good luck and if you have the time let us know how you get on. https://www.lazada.co.th/products/13-inch-dough-mixer-large-wooden-mixer-with-stainless-steel-ring-traditional-dutch-mixer-baking-tool-dough-whisk-i3697061069-s13984943477.html?spm=a2o4m.tm80108725.min-pdp.1.2e3ewN7xwN7xJE.2e3ewN7xwN7xJE
  14. Hi Kenny, I'm no expert by any means, but my bread (I posted here somewhere) wasn't rising as much as l expected, I watched a lot of videos and now proof mine overnight in the fridge and the results have really improved. I think the proofing height will decrease when shaped? Again, I am not an expert and this is for no knead bread in a dutch oven. https://youtu.be/Xw_NgS8iqhU
  15. Thanks for your reply, l leave mine to prove overnight in the fridge, maybe I'll let in prove longer next time.
