Is the M&S pop-up shop still operating out of Central, until the 31st January? Some good bargains to be had, excellent chocolate biscuits, a range of shortbread, and Scottish Oatcakes. Some items , if you buy 5, become half-price.

Appreciate the info, I live a long way out of Udon. Looks a good display of home comfort foods. Cheers. Will visit over the weekend.

another "first" for Bojo & co ......First British PM to rely on UNICEF to feed Britains starving kids ........ oh yeah I remember we gave the money to our mates to provide substandard Covid protection instead :oops: Great to see that tw*t Rees Mogg chime in ......... it's political he says, we have...

Title of thread should be amended to “FuzzyKens moved 2 years ago”.

Big C had both the spaghetti and baked beans in stock yesterday. Have not tried the spaghetti, but the beans are superb, best I have ever tasted. Stock is placed haphazardly in Big C , so you need to keep a sharp eye open. PS check out the coffee for sale at 79 baht per 250 grams per pack, a good ra...

Now put up the Francis and Josie Version of the La De Dah song. Give our non Scottish members some class action.

If you look at the link above, they are not referring to pizza bread/bases etc, but shell you can stuff with your choice of filling. The ingredients list is for a box of 12 shells. More like ravioli . Makro do passable pizza bases, and some that are not passable.

I recently received a letter from Scotland which took 10 days . I also received, unfortunately, yet another Life Certificate request from the DWP. Sent that back using the Thai Post tracking system, another letter posted same day same tracking system arrived back in my mailbox this morning.

People living in ramshackle corrugated iron clad buildings, I use "buildings" advisedly, and just along the road, in every direction, gold painted temples, sat on huge acres of land, with 2 Monks inside. Free food for them, twice a day. Locals seem obsessed with receiving "Boon" (sp.), thinking that...

Looking to buy a Bluetooth dongle with “aux” connector for car use somewhere in Udon. I can buy on Lazada but am in town next week, so would rather buy locally.

The BLM movement should make it clear to all American citizens , when a Policeman orders you to do something, you should comply. Grabbing an Officers Tazer is a stupid act. If I was a US policeman and white, I would not be leaving the precinct house on any call made by the public.

Yesterday I bought Chedar mature,really good price and really delicious !

Fully concur, a strong mature cheese with plenty of bite. Price is spot on for value.

As DM says, do it yourself, I hate having to discuss the most minor point of any change in living conditions with my first wife. I read on the remote control, do I want it cooler, or hotter, and press the appropriate button, job sorted.

Or check his note above, the one with all the pictures, it gives his phone number.

Thanks for the reply, judging by the amount of road traffic passing by our village, about 45k from NK, I was assuming that normality had almost been restored. No point asking at our locals government offices, they are unable to cope with decision making queries from farang customers. They are though...

Anyone have current information on a trip between NK and Udon? Do I require permission from some bods in the Amphur or Police?

Barbasol is an excellent shaving foam, with a superb price. Never buy Gillette foams/gels, crazy prices. Blades available in Makro appear to be very cheap low end product.

I read somewhere Nong Khai has a ban but I'm not sure about the other provinces although DM says you can still buy in NBLP This afternoon west of Nong Khai, I stopped to replenish my water bottle on my bicycle, only to be told they had no water, but had plenty of booze for sale. Being teetotal, I d...

Coming back tonight from the airport nearby the railway crossing, traffic almost at a standstill because of a fallen hoarding close to a car dealership. No heads up as you approach, and the usual refusal to let cars get into the open lanes. Luckily enough the hoarding fell to the left of the highway...
