Time to return to LOS

I've never been to KK, would like to see it

Good TR
Thanks

I always thought KK was the 3rd biggest city. Korat is bigger.

I stayed at the Pullman there in Dec '19, which is right in the thick of it. Group of the usual bars focused on westerners, along with a Thai Disco that gets going after midnight. A very cheap night out compared to Phuket and Bangkok.

Yes... I spent a few evenings in My Bar and a couple of others by Pullman when we were here previously.
As you say, a lot cheaper.

Another stop at Or Goong Pao...

'We'll only order Tom Yum this time ok' I say...

Yeah right

Sooo... the 2012 Mazda 2 we bought new needs to go in for a service.
I would normally do it myself in NZ but over here I take it to one of the local 'mechanics' and support the community.
Oil & filter, coolant change as that is probably due and get him to do front and rear pads while he has it.
All for about a 1/4 of the price you would pay in NZ.

I go pick it up late in the afternoon, give him a handful of cash and accept his offer of a glass of Lao Kao. It is really like a very yuk home brewed spirit with little flavour.
We chat and I politely decline a second.

Lao Kao. It is really like a very yuk home brewed spirit with little flavour.

Good for stripping stubborn paint too I believe

Forgot to mention... we had a BBQ at Howard and Noi's one night.

We stopped at Makro on the way and I bought some steak. Vacuum packed fancy branded Thai beef. 690 for under a kilo.
Quite a letdown in flavour and texture.

Worth a try though, it looked good. Nicely marbled but nah.
