I crave attractive streets and buildings, and cool air to actually be able to spend time enjoying them
Bangkok Phil craves Tesco readymeals, as he left the UK when boil-in-the-bag and pot noodles were being introduced. :(

cornish pasties
not that Ginsters crap mind
29 Baht chicken kebab type things at Kaosan DD, hacked off the rotary grill. Very good for the price. Probably not quite the same as those you used to use to quench your Saturday night post-drinking munchies in the UK tho
Pie and sauce.
Hot crusty bread.
Fish and chips.
And not that English rubbish either, the real Aussie stuff.
Inexpensive good wine.
Oddly enough Smeg I don't really miss much. I can cook most things myself.
I got sent a small can of haggis which was really nice a few months ago.
I would really like a stottie now.
Grits
Cornbread
Scrapple
Fresh Alaska salmon. (not the dye injected Norwegian shit)
Caribou and moose meat.
We have the greens and pig fat here and that's good (pad pak kana mu gorp)
You can get em in the frozen food section of Rimping Supermarket in Chiang Mai. Nice ones, too. :)Quote:

Sorry mum but it is!!:)
Clean streets so that when they are hauling the country from one spot to another in a dump truck and running 60 miles an hour thru town streets that the air is not so full of dust, and cleaner air thru out the country so you could at least see 300 meters at ground level instead of the heavily polluted air from cars, Trucks and open burning of garbage, Wood and grass/brush in every part of the country that I have visited.
And I do not live in a city but in a farming area and it is as bad as BKK or CM air pollution.
excellent. i only have to wait a month to get my fix.Quote:

Yes, I love the Carrefour bread - they do a big white crusty loaf, I just stick it in my oven for a couple of minutes.Quote:

Better than the pretentious arseholes you often see in the USA.

They are almost all trained in the west anyway.

There are nice and crunchy, but a bit too cold for me, thanks.Quote:
