My house is now really like a hotel.

[krisb]

Just cause no one really cooks at your house, and unless it has 200 bedrooms, its not that much like a hotel at all is it.

You could get Oi to bring the food, and say 'loom service'. That would increase the hotelness of it all.

It is a bijou hotel!

Never stayed at that one before sorry.

[Briandajew]

yes, 1112 and the like.. Next.

Yeah right!

try 1112 out in the sticks! See where that gets you,

[joshuatdixon]

You can also do the same with the regular motorbike drivers at your corner.

[penwithcris]

yes, 1112 and the like.. Next.

No not the same!

Ordinary Thai food 40 baht ; nothing like phoning for a pizza!

well ok then, to play along. yes this is not unique to you. I actually gave the moo ping guy a wink and 4 fingers on my way back from 711 to my condo, 10 mins later he showed up with 4 moo pings in hand = 35 baht. Sticky rice was extra however.

[penwithcris]

I gave the Thai owner of the local street stall a wink and two fingers on my way back to my condo

Five minutes later he turned up with a gun in one hand and a meat cleaver in the other

BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU WINK FOR!

I'm confused ... is this a restaurant or a ladyboy bar you are referring too?

My cooks name is lee, she prepares seprraye dishes for each of our liking and she also does laundry cleans the house and minds the children. I recommend full time staff to everyone with children as it allows patenting to be more about qulaity time with the children.

What a load of c***p. If you really want quality time with you kids , get in there and mess around with them - bake a cake - prepare it with them - get the hands in the bowl - let them lick the spoon. Lick the spoon with them, have fun.

Have we really regressed to the stage that everything, even the most basic of human needs, is now outsourced including being with our kids?

Sorry son can't see you at the moment...my diary has you pencilled in for a parent interaction workshop at 7pm till 8pm on Thursday provided there isn't a schedule breaker, then we will have to reschedule for Saturday morning, tentatively, at this point in time.

Geez no wonder kids spend more time on the laptop/pc/tablet.

And generationally suffer for it.

[dagobert]

Hey you knocked on the door if you dont like it in here "Leave"

[thaibeachlovers]

More restaurants within a 5 minute ride than I can count, but my wife cooks better than any of them .

I thought you were going to complain about the rellies dropping in all the time. My rat bag nephew turns up most weekends for free food, free laundry, free tv and leaves a big mess everytime. I'd like to start charging him as if we were an hotel, but my wife won't wear that.

Is it possible the NEPHEW is your step-son......................lol.?

That would be unlikely, as my wife has no living children.

[Jambo]

Can u let me know where this India place is in Phuket mate?

Id love a curry like this.

With all that FREE time, maybe you could learn how to spell, or how to use word correct... Just a thought.

[The Deerhunter]

A second cousin of the wife rents an old shophouse from wife's mum 300m up the road. Meals on Wheels. And beer too if we run out. She is a bit heavy on the MSG though. She is on a highway & truckers seem to like MSG

[The Deerhunter]

Give them GPS co-ordinates & hope he is not delivering on a pushbike.

Kamala , club hotel.. right next to Sovrana bar,/across from aussie bar, sit in or take-away, and if youre sitting in a bar or at home in kamala they will deliver

[misterphil]

Cheap food served at cheap road side restaurants is cooked with cheap ingredients, such as cuts of meat with too much fat and gristle in it, and cheap cooking oil that will eventually block up your arteries and cause cholesterol and high blood pressure problems. Would i feed any of my family this ? Nope!!!

[Strangebrew]

Yep also get side of tat very good service indeed

[Strangebrew]

I guess you haven't heard of food taxi . order anything you gets delivered hot with beer or soda at home.

[smotherb]

yes, 1112 and the like.. Next.

Oh please, how about some good food. I simply call downstairs from my man cave and tell my wife what I want--she delivers, always has in all ways. Too bad some people just can't seem to find the right woman.

[dagobert]

Ahh you live in a Cave, Ha Haaa whats that sayin.....?

Unfortunately I don't have a man cave, but my wife is the same. I don't even have to ask, she asks me what I want..

[dagobert]

My missus is like that, "Good Asian woman" nothing better is there ?

[ABCer]

OP has a very comfortable arrangement food wise.

It is true, eating out may be cheaper than cooking BUT

I eat 9 out of 10 foreign recipes food. The ingredients are local and superb.

My Thai lady by now cooks like a chef and exactly the way I like it.

Regarding 1112 - you should try my pizza...

Forgot to mention - it is much more expensive to cook really good food!

[daveAustin]

Chaps, you're all eating too much meat and flavourings like MSG. This is also a very boring thread.
