More bad news. Have just heard from one of our sons in Australia that Oliver Fruchtenicht has been killed in a motorcycle incident in Chiang Mai. Oliver is the son of Horst Fruchtenicht (also mentioned in these pages) and Warunee and did his schooling at CMIS. He and his sister Melanie were,are close friends of our kids. A lot of you may remember Horst from the Gymkhana and around town. If anybody knows details of funeral arrangements could you please let me know as we live out of town now.

Wheres the best place to get a tattoo in pattaya ?
Or is it safer to stick with a palour at home.
On Khoa San road, which has a lot of very crappy tattoo parlors, YMK half way down in a arcade on the left, is VERY good. I've bought 7 tatoo's there, all free hand jobs, for friends,
Center Point Plaza, 02 629 1027
The best place is on your forehead and JimmieBlonde might give you a free hand job.

I've worked around two of the Chang breweries. Very good setup, still got Danish consultants riding around on bicycles and the chief brewmaster trained in New Zealand. I was surprised at the large amounts of glutinous rice fermented to make the alcohol. Don't know if this would have anything to do with hangovers as I thought alcohol was alcohol.

Last night after seven hours on Hong Kong San Mig I feel awful. Funny thing happened after a similar beano on Chang...................must be a connection. I just can't put my finger on it.
Was there rain both times, might be the weather? Eat the same snacks? Might have had pesticide on the insects.

Well it was expected. Simply awful.

The sooner we go home and sack the lot of them the better.
Bit harsh MB. If every English team was sacked after falling in to oblivion after one brief glimmer of greatness, English sport would be in a terrible mess. No more rugby, cricket, rugby league, soccer for instance. I can't ever see there being a world cup for tiddlywinks or conkers.

How should ผู้ให้สัญญา and ผู้รับสัญญา be translated into English?
I understand the basic meaning of 'contract giver' and 'contract accepter', but are there any specific legal terms in English that can be used here?
The second term is almost always "the Contractor". The first one depends on the type of contract and how the terms are specified in the preamble. I have mostly seen it as "the Owner".

are you implying that the Wallabies are sheepshagers, and what is the aussie convict doing to the sheep other than choking it.
Heavens no. I think the nice Wallaby is just giving it the Heimlich Manouvre to stop it choking.
On second thoughts, the second photo is probably just a Kiwi shepherd trying to to stop the lamb from choking.
Either that, or he is pulling its head around for a bit of mouth to mouth.

My wife's father is a Saw Jaw in Prachuab Khirikhan. I've been hanging around the saw saws, saw jaws, kamnans, puu yai baans for years now and have never really understood the organizational structure, the pecking order, or the history. Anyone can educate me? Thanks.
My understanding is that a Saw Jaw is an elected member of a Provincial Assembly (Samachik Changwat = Saw Jaw), a Saw Saw is an elected member of the National Assembly (Samachik Supa = Saw Saw).
The pecking order in ascending order is:
Puyai Baan (Village headman)
Kamnan (Tambon headman)
Saw Jaw
Saw Saw
The actual power structure depends on who can their hands on the most cash in a particular province.
My transliteration is bad and a native Thai speaker would be able to give you better information.

[email protected]Is Moly-D the same as molybdenum disulphide? We use that as a solid lubricant for different applications.

in Chiang Mai
Ceremonies are at Wat Phra Singh. Prayers started at 7pm last night so will probably be the same for the next few days.
