Sadly, Paul Phillips AKA Nookiebear, passed away unexpectedly on Monday 30 September 2024.

Our thoughts and prayers are with his family at this most difficult time.

Thank you for your understanding and consideration.

The food delivery service is now discontinued, but food can still be purchased locally in person,

by arrangement at Bon's house in Sakut. Please phone in advance prior to turning up unannounced,

to ensure someone will be there to meet you, thus avoiding disappointment, and a wasted journey.

Tetley is nice but really stains your teeth

I've got a full set of dentures, the plastic type and even with a daily clean the pink gum parts do brown up a bit, not visible except when I take them out to clean or when scaring her families toddlers, the kids love that , lol.

I use Polident tablets because they are available from our local Pharmacy.

I just take my teeth out and rinse them after every cup so no problems.

I ordered some Tata Gold on Lemonjelly's reccommendation. It was around 170 baht for 500gms on lazada. I also got some (Empty) tea bags. No need for a teapot. The tea's delicious.

Tea bags from Mr DIY? is Tata Gold better than Typhoo or Tetley?

[jaiyenyen]

Empty teabags, with a drawstring. Put 2 tsp of loose tea inside the bag and pull the drawstring = 1 teabag.

I found them on Lazada, 19 baht for 100.

Better than Tetley or Typhoo? About the same colour, with a slightly different taste.

I've found it very drinkable

Quick update. I tried the 7 x 9 teabag. There's more room for the leaves to brew, resulting in a stronger flavour.

My gran used to take her dental plate out before pouring some of her hot cup of milk-and-sugarred Nambarrie into the saucer and sipping it noisily through her pursed lips.

 

She would always forget where she left her plate as well.
