  1. Recipe please. When I'm visiting my mum in the UK I often have a takeaway from a nearby Indian (maybe Bangladeshi ?) open kitchen. I have watched the chefs preparing the food while I wait. They just grab a blackened wok from a rack, add a number of spices from a range of jars (no measurements - just a spoonful of this and that) toast the spices, add the base gravy from a tub. The meat, of course, is already part-cooked. It seems that the base gravy is used in every curry. I have tried (with varying success) to cook Indian curries from scratch, using ingredients from Zing Street and other sources. Some (most) have been quite okay, but I can't reproduce the precise taste of a British Indian curry. I'm convinced that the base gravy is the missing link.
  2. I agree. But because I'm pedantic I have to point out that the chance of winning the Thai Lottery jackpot is exactly 1 in 1 million.
  3. Fear of a defamation lawsuit maybe, Revealing the name would possibly damage their reputation.
  4. It was a spirit made from fermented and distilled sugar cane, perhaps.
  5. When most people disagree with your view, shouldn't you consider the possibility that you were wrong. Or, is everyone out of step - except you?
  6. He's an attention seeking fraud (IMHO). For anyone not familiar with his nonsense, this (13 minutes you tube video) is a good explanation ...
  7. Just spent 15 minutes trying to find a 'tax rebate' button on my Gov Gateway Personal Tax Account. Can you point me in the right direction?
  8. You only gave her the bus fare? Someone should tell her that agents are charging 5,000 baht.????
  9. I gave that a laugh, but it's not really funny. Maybe someone who has been through the process of reclaiming overpayments can tell us the procedure, which forms to complete, and where to find the forms.
  10. Found this using google. All in Thai, but looks interesting ... https://pestawaythailand.co.th/กำจัดนกพิราบ/ And this ... http://en.bird-tech.net/Menu/Our-agent.html
  11. Seems that the first acknowledgement is automated but (in some locations) it goes wrong when humans get involved.
  12. Good luck. And I hope you stick around long enough to attend her graduation.
  13. Did you get an email confirming that they received your application?
  14. Some offices are better than others. I use Jomtien (Pattaya) and have never waited more than a couple of days for approval. On Monday I received a reminder by email. I submitted my application at 10.18am and received approval at 11.16am.
