My favorite shirt is 55 % bamboo, and has out lasted all my other shirts, except my one hemp shirt. The hemp shirt is 22 years old and still as good as new.

A very belated post : Rest in peace Phil. A true gentleman, you will be greatly missed. Condolences to wife and kids at this very sad time.

If it's anything like Dave and crew's other ventures then it's bound to be a success. Right effort, right attitude, great food, maintains standards. Never had a bad meal with them, nor has anyone else i know. They are top of the pops in Chiang Mai. Look forward to trying the new place.

Has anyone had any physical, medical effects from all this pollution? ME, 10 days ago, after a month of a bad cough that wouldn't go away, woke up at about 3 am, with chest pains, as if someone was standing on my chest. Fearing a heart attack, I had to drive myself 15km to the McKormick hospital, to the ER. An EKG test showed my heart was in good health, & the doctor on duty diagnosed strained chest muscles from the cough. That drive into town seemed to last forever.

Myself and two of my kids both had blood noses, and my wife and daughter still have bad coughs.

What's a 'Mykonos Grill Plate'.......obviously something Greek........no?

Given Mykonos reputation this should be worth checking out

Oh, second thoughts, someone said this is a family place

Mykonos is a Greek mixed platter, grilled meat, salad, chips, dips, etc.

We have the 3BB 9M package, no problems whatsoever.

Being a Melbournite myself like the owner of Yummy I have to say the food is just like home. Pizzas are great, ribs even better, missus and kids love them. And as a family venue it's great, kids can be kids and not upset too many adults, lol.

Haven't been to a Wednesday music night yet but will do so soon.

You can buy the felt stick on's for bottoms of chairs at the 2 dollar shop at Nim City and at the same shop at Rim Ping (Ping River branch). They do the job quite nicely.

Well excuse me. Didn't read that bit, probably early morning. For normal chairs they work fine. I have a normal rug under my wheely computer chair, does the job, 159 baht at homepro.

They are not worth a dime. Don't waste your money. A fan and a cold / wet towel on hand will do a better job.

How is the air right now? Does the recent lack of posts on the subject suggest improvement?

Missus Dude and myself plan to visit Chiangers next month but I'm loathe to book the flights until it becomes apparent that the burning season is over and the air's moving towards a healthier state.

Slight improvement. Can see the mountains now at least. Kids seemed to have stopped coughing too. Still hazy though, the sky is a mix of grey and faint blue.

No to all the above. They have all of the above in Kansas, Toto.

Upgraded today from 6M to 9M. A big difference indeed, very happy. And the service to date has been great from them. No complaints at all.

Looking at the firemap: there has been a susbtantial reduction in the number of fires both inside and oustide of Thailand, I wonder why?

Suspect it is approaching the end of the burning season. It started early this year and hopefully will end earlier then usual. Either that or they are running out of material to burn.

They are probably all in hospital. Flew over CM the other day and the amount of fires burning was staggering. They just don't get it, nor will they anytime soon. Sadly.

The land of surprises. Hope you get to keep it, you just never know here.

About time. 12 years too late. Best of luck to Kirsty's family in finding justice for this despicable crime.

Kamtieng market (the one you mentioned) has well priced orchids, just need to look around, as cheap as some of the smaller outlets around town.

Educating them in composting ain't going to work. At least it would work, though it was said tongue in cheek.

Fish and chips works too.

That it does. Kellys bistro at Rim Ping Meechok does great ones. A good Turkish with the breads and all the dips would be great too, just can't see it happening. Needs to be where lamb is readily available.

_{If you and/or your girlfriend prefer Thai food, Khaomao Khaofang is a very nice place, romantic with excellent food and service:}

And they do what's possibly the best pork knuckle in town. Fried bananas with ice cream for desert just has to be done too.

Mr Chan and Miss Paulines on the canal rd near the Ratchaphruek intersection. Booking essential though.

One a side note. I read that a guy had success, but he included a letter from his wife, written in English. Im not arguing the guys success. But why would a Thai write a letter to a Thai, in English? Other than TiT?

Anyways. I been away from the forums for a long time, health reasons.

As always, the sub-forums are invaluable.

Thanks

I was successful in Singapore last December. My wife's letter was in "Thai" not English.

Been getting the same non-imm O there for the past 8 years without a problem.

Try B2S in both Central Kad Suan Kaew and Robinsons dept store at Central Airport Plaza.

They have a good selection of current Thai stuff.

There's 'Bistro', at Nim Plaza near the Airport (where Rim Ping airport is), next to Wine Connection. Very, very good Fish & Chips.

I'm hoping for more shops of that kind at Promenada too; independent shops like Wine Connection, Butter is Better, Bistro and Thom's Coffee, and some nice Thai restaurants.

I hear you, but F&C is predominantly farang dish - can't recall seeing a Thai eat it anywhere, I just don't see the Thai's taking to it in droves, like the established Pizza Hut, KFC etc, and the custom required to pay the rents wouldn't be there. I think any venture must guarantee the Thai's will want it However, I've been known to be wrong.

Long John Silvers in Singapore and Malaysia packs em in, they love it. My Thai missus loves fish n greaso's too.

Something different from fried chicken and donuts.

Over the past week or so I have ben sampling various items of this product. Tonight we had a curry night with some friends using this new product from Rimping. Excellent value for money, great aftertaste, creamy and full of meat in those products that claimed as such.

Some of the best Curries that I have tasted here in Chiang Mai. Great packaging and product information on the product sleeve that lives up to the claim of the manufacturer.

Far Better value, more content and taste than other products I have tried by many other people who have attempted to provide Curry products to the various retail outlets here in this city for consumption by Farangs..

I am not associated with the producer of this product, but just felt that I should pass on my good experience with the products I have tasted so far.

I will be back for more.

Agreed, very nice curries indeed.
