On second thoughts, maybe he is Blitish; Brexit has messed up the £ & we can't afford Robster..... The camera footage is a bit grainy, but I don't think he's got Brexit ears. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One's a crustacean and the others a crushed-asian .. Dude goes with a £10 night lady and contracts crabs .. When he see's her again to complain she laughed " what did you want for a tenner Lobsters .! " I say, I say, I say. My dog's got no nose. How does he smell?

observer90210 Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 Unacceptable to steal others property of course. But are people that stupid to pay THB 20'000 in Thailand for a lobster ?

Crabs around tb1000 per kilo. Large Shrimps around tb 800 per kilo. Cost price. Maybe she was quoting restaurant selling price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thais now do not look any more at one's nationality or one's skin colour. They plainly judge people by dress apperance and from the size of one's wallet.

I got the impression the total bag was worth 20,000 baht, not a single lobster. Perhaps an inflated figure if bought from the market, and rather too exact to be believed. Can't say I am familiar with the price of it anyhow, sort of gave up when I saw how much they went for at the over-the-sea tourist restaurants, where apparently you are obliged to still pay the full price even if it has gone off!
