Read somewhere honey is a secret ingredient to good BBQ pork ribs and chicken wings especially over charcoal. Any bros/sis got any tips to share?

Finally she's been cremated and ashes brought home.

Take care Joetys.

Thanks ginfreely

Bro, the Chinese saying - 天下没有不散的宴席。 She led a very blissful life for a dog. It's a very long and thorough 缘分 between the two of you. What more can a dog ask ? And for a good 14 years of companionship. What more can the owner ask ?

A lovely doggy and a caring owner. Both of you have etched a meaningful chapter in each others' life. It's mission accomplished for her; it's human compassion on your part beautifully manifested on all pet owners' behalf.

These are the most beautiful comforting words I've heard today, thanks Jumong

Actually second bottle liaoz.
Even more beautiful sunset. It's now dark. Have not watching a full sunset for a long time. Even longer never enjoy watching sunrise.

Note you drink beer sans ice, unlike most khun thais. Think if beer's cold, ice will only dilute taste. But well, when in LOS, follow the LOSmen.

Hehehe. Usually, first pour without ice. As the temperature in bottle increase, add a little ice. Used to have an ice box to keep the bottles cool but to leh chey.

Hi terry1965, most of the solar farms in Thailand is built by a company (my customer) who aspire to become the largest solar farm owner in ASEAN. I think they are on track. Most of their farms will be in Khon Kaen and Korat I believe the plan calls for over 30 farms and they already half way there. Each farm is approximately 70 rai (28,000 sqm). Funny one of the directors told me they have to be "friendly" with the neighbours and villagers if not sometimes whey will throw or shoot stones intot he farm damaging the panel.

Ok I recall you mentioned about the retiring village and also coming here this year to golf. So you did right? At Khon Kaen?

Chang-Tao-Yew is a must in the kitchen for standby. Anyway this is the best fishball so far I've eaten in Thailand. Very QQ. Bought it in Chinatown on Sunday. 60 baht half kilo . . . . . a little expensive for Thai standard but its worth.
