Same in Ubon Ratchatani, I would almost go to say it is the worst day of the week for traffic.

Sorry about that, for some reason I thought he was at Sappahsit....... carry on and ignore me!

No worries mate - fully understand, maybe next time.

Feel free to drop the papers off if you like as you drive straight past my shop enroute to the hospital.

FC, would you have anytime to drop into Peppers for a coffee or a meal on the 16th? Perhaps you could drop the papers off for anthoma and he can pick them up from me?

It would be great to meet with you and pick your brain about running a restaurant in Issan.

Perth, Perth or Perth.

The most amazing helpfully place I have ever gone to.

I can provide a name and email address is you like. Only problem is that they are only open on Tuesday and Thursdays.

Hi Mike, It was just someone venting about someone else whilst hiding behind a message forum. Will fill you in when I next see you if you like.

Great stuff cozumelito - through that company I now have one on the way! Cheers.

I forgot to mention when I posted that above that Mr Nana is a man of his word and sent me my very nice looking shirt in the mail.

Thanks to you both for your reply. The China town sounds interesting, can you remember a little more specifically where about perhaps using talart yai (big market) as a reference point.

Any ideas at all where I might start looking to buy something like what this man is using?

Yes I have used them in the past. Seem ok to me.

deleted 2 posts & banned poster who signed up 2 different log ons just to flame another poster. This kind of trolling will not be tolerated

It took you 6 days before deleting it, this issan part of the forum sure does move slow

dropped by Peppers to enjoy a tasty pizza pepperoni.

Glad you enjoyed it Bergen!

^^ who said anything about Ubon?

I third the recommendation of the mont clair 5 ltr cask. Great value for a nice tasting red.

Air Asia flight back from KL to BKK, some wannabe hi-so Thai woman and her two teenage girls pushed in front of me in the immigration line at KUL. I get in front of them, turn to her, and say "I was first!", and she gives me an evil look, and says "Never mind". Says I: "Actually I do!", and turn my back.

But then, as we're about to board the plane, I note she's at the front of the boarding queue (with many people behind her). It was the highlight of my life to date to be able to go right up to the front next to her, show the counter-guy my ticket with Express Boarding on it (200THB extra!), and board in front of her, throwing her a casual "You must be lo-so to be queuing" glance as I did. Good Lord did that feel good. Almost as good as when she tried to move, mid-flight, to the roomier Exit Row seats where I was sat, to be told by the air hostess that her and her clan couldn't sit there, as these seats were for premium customers only. Muahahahahahahaha.

That was the 'highlight of your life to date'? Crikey mate - you need to get out more!

over the last couple of years I've increasingly seen people jump to the front only for the counter staff to send them to the back of the queue.

I too have noticed this thank fully. When it happens I make sure to thank the counter staff.

Hiya Chef Heat, was just down at Sunee tonight and noticed you only have one jar of salsa picante left.

The email you send out to Thai Visa subscribers is headlined with

"Crackdown on foreigners violating law on buying, renting farmland in Thailand"

So you click on the link and see the headline that says

"No foreigners found violating law on buying, renting farmland in Thailand"

A little sensationalise don't you think?

Wow Brian, a great reply.

many thanks. Will get down there soon.

I just bought a jar of the hot salsa. First test a few minutes ago was very good. Got a decent amount of kick in it. All I need now are some decent corn chips.

Good location (ie not on the bottom shelf - is at chest level) and they have your advertising up as well. Only problem is that they don't have the prices up yet.

What other western places are there in Sisaket.

I was thinking of driving down there in a few days time to take a look.

When you say 'pickles' do you mean gherkins?

I had a look two days ago but nothing there, will check again tonight.

Hi all,

I need (want?) a second hand motorbike. Just a general run of the mill bike that you see every second on the roads in Thailand. No bling bling needed, as long as it is road worthy and starts every time then I am happy. Any of you Ubon locals have one surplus to requirements or know of anyone that is looking to get rid of one? The other option of course is the repo auctions. Does anyone have any information about these places?

Cheers
