  1. Thanks troops, only ever been in one expat shop normally the supermarkets do it for me but this ain't normal times. Thanks again.
  2. No these are packets of dehydrated potato which we add boiling water to. Produces non-lumpy mashed potato, ideal for throats that have been bombarded with/by radiation.

  4. Due to hospital treatment to my throat I have difficulty getting food down, Smash (or whatever it's called now) would be ideal. Anyone seen anything like it here.
  5. What time can you get here, they sometimes finish early. Or late.
  6. Well there is a Catholic Church there.
  7. Well, many on here would be more accurate.
  8. The black socks bit intrigues me, where had he been drinking.? I thought the socks 'n sandals brigade had disappeared a long time ago.
  9. Went to the Green Door in Las Palmas once but that was 50 years ago. Probably different now.
  10. Well you like Pittodrie so I suppose we can make allowances. Whatever happened to Gill Sans by the way, it used to be more than popular. Never see it now.
  11. I remember about/at least 20 years ago a fellow drinker from Pattaya was working in Singapore and had been drinking in Boat Quay (Maggie May?), he was calculating his change from a round of 4 and realised it had come to £20. The barman was watching him and giggling "ha ha you think mistake, think change wrong" he nodded affirmatively and got "ha ha, no, happy hour half price."
  12. When I first arrived in SE Asia in 1977 the first drink I had was in Raffles, a 330 ml draught Carlsberg which cost over £6. Can't remember which bar, but the exchange rate was about 2.70 and that still hurt especially coming from South Africa. Coming up here it was all much easier on the pocket and got easier by the day. So just been wondering what today's price is.
  13. I did too, a long while ago not sure what the policy is now they were always chopping and changing. I was meaning to recommend the low beer prices but I don't remember the Beer Garden being a cheap option so perhaps he's not price conscious.
  14. You surprise me Mr S, that is exactly what you expect from the poorly educated masses, not from distinguished people. But it does not only come from the Scottish, those from Northern Ireland and Wales are almost as bad. It's simply a case of "small man syndrome". England are the Big Dog in the UK and the little fellas naturally resent this that's all. Now be about your business my good fellow.
  15. Thanks to all for the helpful advice, I did not expect this big a response. you may now stand down.
  16. Thanks for that. at the minute my problem is that my throat cannot take anything solid so this stuff will do.
  17. Thanks to all for your help, it seems like I'm in for the long haul weaning myself off the ensure gold.
  18. Good idea, I did have a none too successful attempt with the blender and not bothered since.
  19. The sick bit applies to the throat, I struggle to get anything down.
  20. Hi, due to continuing Ill health I am dependent on the Mrs for food shopping. Anywhere near Thonglor have the above please.
  21. Try the Bus Stop bar on Soi 4 for an alternative.
  22. That's two.
  23. Everybody knows that's Nakhon Sawan.
