Agree with Saint, Villa is the go to place for more unusual items, the key here is not to buy day to day items. There are bargains to be had, but you need to look hard for them. Last years the freezers were completely re-stocked ahead of Christmas rush, I expect that to happen again shortly. Staff l...

It will be either a big roundabout or lights to do any turns
Should not be congested as sraight traffic over pass or tunnel

The roundabout should therefore be "Farang" only, or it becomes the usual "MeFirstAbout".

Can anyone explain to me how you would travel from Nong Khai to the Airport, once the underpass/overpass is operational. Coming from NK, there is new signage indicating left hand lane for KK and NLB. Will it still be a U-turn to the airport?

If any (more) proof was needed that the world is going to hell in a politically correct, gender-neutral sort of hand basket...

For many months now you may have noticed this popular bakery in the Central complex has been closed due to the enlargement of the Tops supermarket, the proposed new location has been displaying an "Open soon Sign" but owing to a dispute as to the suitability of the location nothing has happened.

I have been in twice so far, excellent choice of meats and pies, and some unusual cheeses. Branston beans at 50 baht per tin, 3 for 125 baht, they even had white pudding available. Indian meals are superb value and taste. In town tomorrow will re-stock my cupboard.

I experienced Microsleep once while driving through Glencoe, Scotland, very frightening. I had had a full nights sleep before setting out. No re-occurance thankfully. However, it would not be too high up on my list of necessary road signs in Thailand.

The Manager there is a wanker! You go there sometimes Onions? ..no have! have Potatoes...No have! I've been there in the evening and all the meat counters empty! And My Tesco shortcake no longer sold there! Because of that I lost weight! Disgraceful! I am genuinely surprised to hear this particular...

Popped in today for my wee shop, was pleasantly surprised at the new expanded range of dry goods, pies, curries, white pudding, and a good choice of cheeses.

The right move at the right time. No point having further talks or motions in Parliament.

Am I correct that there was a post giving opening times and deal details yesterday? As
I cannot see any trace today. In town later this week and want to do a wee shop.
Meats & More, I believe is the new name.

Does anyone know if this shop is still in operation?, it apparently lies between Bang Dung and Nong Han.

The key to shopping at Makro is to get in first thing in the morning, this applies to Tesco also.

Dear God you cannot be serious, Bruce Springsteen a glorified pub singer, songs for the masses. Just wait until Lone Star has sight of this, we are in for open warfare.

Here since January 2012, drive almost every day, including Udon-Pattaya and Chiang Mai- Mai Song Hon. Nil accidents. Standard of driving in the area is frankly appalling, but I am ultra defensive in avoiding problems. The mix of vehicles here is astonishing, little old ladies on bikes at 5kph, with ...

Although the price of normal size packs of Mainland cheeses is on the rise at all locations, in Makro I found a 500 gram pack of their vintage brand strong cheddar for 249baht. This is essentially half price compared to the 250 gram packs, which are more commonly available. Unaware if they will pack...

Thanks for the update on the Tesco brand products.I will be a willing consumer. Also it's interesting to get information from the sois regarding how business is going. It appears to be the exact opposite to what TAT and associated organisations are sprouting. [/quote] It is always good news to hear ...
