Do It Yourself..........or Not

Pouring your beer

So often when you go to a restaurant whether it is posh or not, you are going

to find the beer deposited on a small table way out of your reach together with

the bucket of ice

bottle opener and your partners' mixers. You are given a tiddly glass full of ice to drink you

beer from, well one mouthful and it is almost empty straightaway.

Do you wait for the obsequious waiter/ress to come over

and refill for you or do you just request that they stick the bottle on the table

and you will pour yourself.

My missus likes whisky and soda, but not the Thai way with hardly a smattering of whisky

topped up with half a bottle of soda.

So pain in the ass or not we like to pour our own drinks.

Pound to a pint of guiness you won't find this going on in Martin's FC in Surin.

The golf club has learnt to deal with up to 14 farangs who like bottles and jugs of beer,

and they always stick them on the table right in front of the owner.

What is so annoying about this Thai habit is if 2 of you enter such a place and order

2 beers, 2 glasses and they proceed to fill both glasses from one bottle. If you encounter this

practice then always double check your bill.

I guess I am just missing sipping my pint of bitter in the beer garden by the river in suburbia

getting terrorized by wasps. :o
