48 baht in Big C, a pack of 12 is 510 baht = 42.5

Thing is, I would drink them all in one night instead of my usual six cans .

So, it would end up costing me more and I would forget that I drank 12 cans instead of six

So now, are you happier being back in the UK?  Will you return to LOS?  I love it here, but agree with many of the psots here.

Red cock vodka from Tesco @ 140bht/700ml is unbeatable.

I've seen women wearing a burka trying to eat a meal on an aircraft, was it as awkward while wearing a mask?

Just been back in the UK  increasing my income by 50 % and you are sat there hoping that your unrelated  step daughter remains a virgin so that you can get a  big payout   ( as previously stated by yourself ) in the terms of sinsot

Don't think it's vodka but a far lower grade called white spirits. But guess it's OK with mixers or a punch bowl

The plane from London To Peking was full , the plane from Beijing to CM wasnt full .

I split some food on the flight from London to Peking 

Do we really need to waste TV data space to explain this?

My luggage went from London to CM

Whist I do understand that one needs to explain things to Thais 

I really dont think that I should be explaining things ton Westerners

I was mistaken , it wasnt Cheers 6 % that is my choice of beer , I had a bad experience with that . Waiting outside of 7/11 at 10 30 AM  waiting for the beer shutters to come down 

10.59 AM get the 7/11 cashiers ready with their keys .

11 AM, the shutters open and grab myself a few cans of Cheers 6% 

Done half a can by 11 .01 , only to realise that they had sold me the 4% strawberry Cheers beer .

lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll
