    Though on the bright side I have ten new blue t-shirts and ten new black shorts and don't need to buy any new clothes for at least another 3 years.

    So do you reckon the quality has improved?

    I thought that when I bulk-bought camo shorts, but have discovered that they're not particularly good quality and the crotch seams wear out quickly.

    I'm just going to buy one item at a time from now on.

    The staff get paid around 30 baht an hour ffs. Have 5 of them manning actual checkouts.
    better they are at work, actually doing something than living the life of the unemployed, on overgenerous benefits, lazing at home guzzling beer and pizza all day, fathering equally useless kids with unemployed and unemployable women and when they can actually be bothered to get off their fat arses they are out shoplifting.

    fuck socialism.

    The above is sheer music to my ears.

    Anyway...

    I bought some Decathlon t-shirts last year.

    The neck seemed very restrictive. I reckon they were saving money by using the same neck size regardless of the actual size of the shirt.

    I suppose it could just be my impeccable pectorals, though.

    Either way, those tees are about as comfortable as Houdini was at the beginning of his act.

    Over the Spring months and many splinters I sorted the floorboards rafters and and joists of a deconstructed house I bought, into useable, rotten, chipped , full length, partially useful etc, no marking nor numbers but just as in a boat shed in differing stacks.

    One day without asking wife instructed builders to shift for yet more tiles. Had I known hours saved and stored in a dry place, but no on the edge of new deck left in the rain all mixed again. The supporting blocks tossed below

    This pm I discover I paying the vilage idiot, a likeable rogue, to move them again he's done about a dozen in 2 hours a journey of 30m and 17 steps.He came for a lunchtimepeak but decided to return in max heat pm, and so it goes.The heaviset about 2kilo of makkan but most about 1 kilo.

    I feel an early happy hour Absinthe Daquiri or maybe an ale with Malt chaser-chasers
    When in doubt, look intelligent. Garrison Keillor

    Been using Tops as my grocery delivery service since the start of covid. Very convenient. Recently however the express delivery service (same day) dropped out of my options. They had apparently moved that option to a "prime" membership. 99 baht per month - meh. Signed up. Worked for two days, then dropped off my options again. Multiple (dozens) of emails to Tops - which were responded to quite quickly (and in English), but they were simply unable to settle the problem. Finally, today I got a call from Tops. Seems my location has just been dropped out of the express delivery area. Despite the nearest store being only 20 mins away by motorcycle.

    Quite pissed off.

    ^ I use Food Panda for delivery from Tops, Tesco and Big C most days. There are other shops too, such as CP butchers, pharmacies, organic fruit and veg shop and oddly enough a florist available.

    Free delivery if over a few hundred baht.

    Just yesterday from Tops.




    The Red Cup's for me cleaner.

    Signing up to pro is only 228thb per year, and gets you lots of discounts and vouchers etc that are automatically added, you don't need to go searching for them like some old biddy going through her purse at the checkout counter.




    Apparently I've had 5014 baht of discounts on food and shopping since July.

    I'm not sure what you mean.

    A kilo of chicken thighs served in Hero garbage bags with a squirt of Turbo lemon dishwashing liquid is both healthy and delicious.

    Yes, that's probably my/our favourite supermarket to go to, with a schneaky bowl of Khao soi and pik gai tod at Rimping boat noodles next to the river 50 meters from the end of their soi.





    Good eatin'


    Could even play vroom-vroom there until they remodeled it a few months ago.

    I'm not sure where I stole them from, but can definitely say I haven't been to Khorat in at least 3 weeks.

    Candi's quadruple speed pulsating anus was starting to slow down.

    #tip

    Use the Turbo dish washing liquid and you don't need to wash either of you once finished.

    I'd retort

    "TOP HOLE" but I'd be wrong

    Signed up, including the pro offer. Place my order and 5 minutes later they emailed me "Fuck off. No drivers". And then emptied my shopping cart.

    Not impressed.

    Trying grab. Annoyingly, neither grab nor food panda offered me tops, even though the nearest store is 20 minutes away.
