As an ex-poker player there is no such thing as bad luck, only variance, anything can happen and it frequently does.

You've not met the wife then ????

S--t happens

I tried the same experiment with a 620cl bottle of Chang in a brand new measuring jug from Macro, even took a picture on my phone so I could show the result but then it looked so good I had to drink it, sadly my computer skills for loading said picture on to laptop are lacking so I can't show the result.

????????????????????

Pies, steak and kidney, steak, chicken and mushroom, and I like a decent pork pie with pickle.

Having taken the Thai driving test for a car from scratch I can fully understand why there are so many accidents here, a complete lack of training being the number one reason imho. You couldn't get me on 2 wheels ever over here.

I did, very illuminating, now I get how this all works, I think. Thanks

Post of the month, well put Bob

200 cigs for 100baht, bottle of Scotch 160baht, all from Myanmar at Mae Sot

Could be any number of things, when they changed the coolant did they flush the system? Suspect a dodgy thermostat, blocked radiator or worse case scenario a cylinder head gasket on the way out.

Take 1 medium onion, peel and finely chop, sauté gently with a knob of butter, add a few sprigs of sage, de-leaved and chopped, add 4oz of fresh breadcrumbs, add more butter if needed. Clean the little rascal inside and out, then stuff above mixture where the sun doesn't shine. Place inside a pre-heated oven for 1 hour, baste every 20 minutes until cooked.

Bunnings is a Aussie version of Asda, Aldi, Tesco

Obviously not a Brit, bangers and mash, with onion gravy is a fortnightly treat for me, done right never had any complaints from many Thai and Europeans friends who have had it. We do not mash peas, they are dried marrowfat peas, larger than the normal frozen peas, with more flavour, they have to be soaked overnight with bi-carbonate of soda, then boiled and simmered to get the correct consistency, Great for another northern England delicacy Pie and Pea suppers and for Pea and Ham soup.

Plus 1 on these Nuremberg sausage, best I've found that are easily available.

Good to see the international community hasn't lost it's sense of humour, what's next, Russia to be nominated as world peace envoy.

A waste of time, what you can't get in your mouth is wasted

Well I could because I am a handsome man, who can breathe through his ears and have a long tongue.

No, I'm his Nemesis ????

Shall I bring a Cleaver, I have a good one from when I was a Butcher? Pigs will be happy no matter what the flavour is ????

You're always going have problems lifting a body in one piece. Apparently, the best thing to do is cut up a corpse into six pieces and pile it all together, when you got your six pieces, you got to get rid of them, because it's no good leaving it in the deep freeze for your mum to discover, now, is it? Then I hear the best thing to do is feed them to pigs. You got to starve the pigs for a few days, then the sight of a chopped-up body will look like curry to a pisshead. You gotta shave the heads of your victims, and pull the teeth out for the sake of the piggies' digestion. You could do this afterwards, of course, but you don't want to go sieving through pig <deleted>, now, do you? They will go through bone like butter. You need at least sixteen pigs to finish the job in one sitting, so be wary of any man who keeps a pig farm. They will go through a body that weighs 200 pounds in about eight minutes. That means that a single pig can consume two pounds of uncooked flesh every minute. Hence the expression: "as greedy as a pig".

Here in sunny Phitsanulok I had an Immigration visit before I received my Retirement Visa, all very amicable, few photo's around Madam's house, they chatted with elder sister and neighbours over coffee and biscuits. All good, no questions of any kind to me, but then again her Nephew is the Village Headman.

Well done Bob, 6 pages of <deleted> read so far, time to crack open another bottle of Chang and fire-up a spliff ????????????

My upper set are held in by suction, I think the plate is the key to it, mine are a sort of hard plastic with the teeth attached, if the dentist does his job properly when making the impressions of your pallet, the dental lab then make the full top set to fit your mouth correctly. Never had a problem with the top set apart from wear and as you age your gums recede and they become loose, mine needed changing after about 10 years or so. The bottom set are the biggest problem as far as fitting is concerned, because they are only fitted on the gums and any remaining teeth as anchor points. This was all done in the U.K. privately, by a Norwegian dentist who was part of an NHS dental practice.

Definitely, even better if they are at the sides as well, there is a possibility that with 7 good teeth top and bottom you will get a partial denture which will be far easier to get used too.
