Re: Oil Slick puts Hua Hin Beach at it's dirtiest ever ?
its all relative.When I was in BKK I used to runwalk in Lupini Park, breathing the exhaust filled air of Bkk and trying to dodge the doggie poo, so compared to that the beach is a joy.

Re: Why Sakura Sushi Buffet restaurang think customer is a lier?
That whole 94 complex is very sad, they are now rebuilding the stalls as little houses--but Sakura is the big success. I was asked to take a mixed (Western & Thai & Chinese) for a meal and the 299b buffet was a hit with everybody.

Re: Oil Slick puts Hua Hin Beach at it's dirtiest ever ?
I think this headline is inapproprate for the amount of oil now present. I run/walk from Int-Cot hotel to K T and back about 4 timesa week. Some days ZERO tar on my feet about once a week enough that I have to use some spirit to get them clean.

Re: You know you're old when.......
and yet I heard a commentator say about a very agile football player--He can turn on a sixpence.
And a Lancashire friend tells me that the saying --You daft ha'pouth is still used.

Re: McDonald's in Thailand
Could it be that much of the beef is from cows that were milkers and have outlived their ability to produce milk rather than cattle that was raised for their meat. Pork in the west is much less fatty than before , but I have to say the Thai pork in the supermarkets looks very fatty. My McDs favorite...

Re: McDonald's in Thailand
Yes migrant, in the Eastern provinces of Canada including your neigbour New Brunswick, they have lobster rolls in the summer. When we drove east and crossed the Quebec/NB border we would stop at the first McDs and eat Atlantic lobster--I'm drooling as I type this post.

Which reminds me---- Do NOT try to be COOL if you are over 50 Except if you are one of the RS, when of course you don't have to try, you just are.

Re: McDonald's in Thailand
I dont get your point, presumably in Malaysia burgers and 1/4 pounders are beef based and in Thai both would be pork based.

Re: McDonald's in Thailand
Its easy to eat and kids love it. Their marketing is superb although in the US thay are struggling. A series of chains that are Mcds plus have evolved with a little better tasting food at only slightly higher prices. I find Starbucks more difficult to understand--Coffee is no better than OK at hugel...

Re: McDonald's in Thailand
540 calories, 28g of fat!!!! I think they are doing their customers a favor by not carrying it. Seriously, if you go to McDonalds Nutritional tables you will see the huge number of products that they have. No franchise carries them all. Last month they had a great temporary offering--A Salmon burger...
