Just had a phone call from my sister care home where my our mum is staying have managed to give her an overdose ,she has just been rushed to hospital
Oh no. Sorry to hear this news. Don’t lose hope.
Damn, sorry to hear KT. Su Su to your dear mum.
All the best to you and yours KT
Sad news KT and worth a good moan. I hope she recovers, do let us know.
Not up there with KT's moan, my moan today is Lazada.
To go with my new oven and my ambitions to track down a lump of dead animal to roast I ordered a good quality carving knife. I'm not out to impress anyone, I'm just tired of mediocre knives, it would be nice to have at least one good one.
It's available for immediate shipment. Three weeks ago. Today I am told it is not available in Thailand because it is a 'prohibited item'. They just cancelled my order.
FFS why do they offer stuff they cannot deliver?
Thanks for the well wishes everyone.
Mum is okay out of hospital the person at the care home ha been suspended we are looking to see what if any action can be taken.
Moan time we were planning on flying back to Bangkok but will wait until it stops raining in Thailand ,its still warm and sunny in Sussex .
Just jesting waiting to see that Mum is okay and moaning about being in a care home the truth is my Dad just cant cope with her demands.
^Glad that she recovered.
^^ IKEA is good for kitchenware. Their 365 knives are fine.
You can't get a decent lamb rogan josh in CM?
^, ^^
You guys need to get yourselves down to Korat... Makro was choc a block with frozen lamb last week!
Yep KT glad about that, just be careful of suing the poor old NHS, its on ts knees and the litigation costs keep going up every year.
Ref the knives, Kits is spot on their knives, but not 365, get the

and get yourself an Anysharp knife sharpener if you can

38 baht +p/p on Lazada. :D
Interestingly Ikea do not currently offer a carving knife. They have various kitchen knives and a decent looking bread knife, but no carving knife or fork. I guess Thailand has limited demand.
Looked online at Central, nothing there.
Went back to Lazada and where there had been a number of choices a month ago I could find none at all now. The "I" here being the gf, the same gf who found them all a month ago. Shoppee too.
Amazon has a well-reviewed knife, Messermeister Avanta Pakkawood, which they say ships to Thailand, fifty bucks plus another thirty something for shipping. So can they actually ship it?
It's no big deal, it isn't something I have needed for several years and I'll make do with what I have.
Sort by price: Low to high

How long is a carving knife? What about substituting a sushi & sashimi knife:ponder:
I have knives, I just had a whim to get a proper carving knife and fork, the fork is important too.
Getting back on topic, my real moan was these companies on Lazada and elsewhere that claim to have items in stock and ready for delivery, only to tell you weeks later that was not the case and cancel your order.
^ It's on my list of things to buy when I'm back in Germany.
My moan for the week is that I brought over my backup laptop and found I can't process raw images as I'd like. I'm running Windows in a virtual machine and don't have the memory to run Nikon NX. I'll have to wait until I get back at the week-end.
