I was thinking just now that the main reason i prefer this forum above others is it has a lot of positive feedback. There is many a website dedicated to Thailand and tourism/relationships there, but so many are negative. Yeah, there are a few negative stories here now and then, but for the most part there are alot of people in successful relationships who come here to help each other out. Its rare to find a place with positive input, many people only like to share their negative experiences (Stickman). So I'd like to give a thumbs-up to the admin/mods who made this possible.

Not just in Thailand! -- it would give most boards worldwide a run for their money. The only other board that perhaps equals this or perhaps comes just shy of it, was the old Windows NT 3.51 & NT 4.0 board -- don't know if it still exists, but it was a beautiful location; the "help" flow was outstanding!

As for the mods, all good, but the title goes to Darknight! May he live a long time and bring us all some Belgian chocolates from time to time!

The title of "best moderator" .... not just here at TV but IMHO even in hindsight when previous boards I've visited are compared, moderatorwise, that is!

If he ain't getting a salary, I would rec. that he get paid $100,000/year for starters.

The fact that he is Belgian and has "innate" access to the finest chocolates can only help!

Chocolate mousse

7 oz of black chocolate

5 oz of fresh cream

1.8 oz of butter

Whip the salted whites of the eggs to a froth and while whipping add progressively the sugar. Put this froth third by third into the chocolate while you are mixing.

Let it cool in the refrigerator for a couple of hours before serving it. Bon appetit !

Chocolate truffles

Boil the cream before mixing it with the chocolate. Cover it and cool it in the refrigerator.

With the help of a spoon, make small balls from that preparation. Do not hesitate to round those balls inside your hands. Put them again in the refrigerator for a while.

After having melted the bitter black chocolate, you soak the truffles in it with a fork and just after that, roll it in the cocoa.

Keep the truffles in a cool area but not in the refrigerator.

Bon appetit !

World's Biggest Easter Egg

A Belgian city has entered the Guinness book of records with the biggest Easter egg ever.

The Belgian chocolate producer Guylian made the chocolate egg with at least 50.000 bars on behalf of the city of St. Niklaas.

The egg measured 8.32 metres high and beats the record of Kwazulu-Natal in South-Africa in 1996. That egg was 7.65 metres high.
