    20,000 for a course then you would have to buy the gear and ingredients. Seriously why bother? Just buy what you need to eat. 20,000 baht would buy you cheese for 1-2 years.

    Well it would be a good time to get involved....

    To be honest, I am not worried about competition, just look at the variety of cheeses already available in the supermarkets today. I just think Thailand needs more Cheese makers and nationally made cheeses but obviously I am not going to teach people for free!!

    Also as I own a 2 cheese shops, If any of my students produced quality products i would be interested in stocking theirs too.

    @ 20k a pop for lessons I wonder how well your cheese shops are actually doing

    he's advertising his business and $700 for a 2.5 day course is expensive. You can stay in a luxury villa for that price.

    Actually, it's not.

    Try going to a 1 or 2 day marketing seminar. (~$2000 or $3000)

    Difference is , Will y dear chap, that most of the courses being compared to this one are those where a business will pick up the tab. Unless he thinks the cheese firms of thailand are going to send their underlings along, then the fee will be coming out of an individuals pocket.

    Also, I doubt he will have 20 people, each making a 100l vat of cheese each. If they were do they get to keep the cheese?

    I just get the feeling he wants a quick half a million on the hip and thinks people will fork up the cash for this. I would be interested but not at that rate. After all, he will be selling the product made no doubt.

    Anyway - he has changed the young lady in the small shop now. The new lass is OK, not as easy on the eye, but has bigger udders.

    Comparable courses in the UK go for 120-150 quid per day and the most expensive 2 day course i saw was 360 quid (15k baht or there abouts) and these are from established and proven courses as opposed to bloke down the shop thinks he will have a go.

    Just had some bad news from Nick about his cheese company. A business partner has done a 'Thaksin' and stolen the business from him with the aid of a scumbag Thai lawyer, so at present, Nick is not producing any cheese.

    If you see a Cornish wanker called Tom Carpenter on your travels, give him a friendly smack in the face with a piece of 4x2.
