Yes I usually turn left onto Arunothai and down soi Sophon... bump-bump-bump, but if it backs up like it did Monday there is still likelihood of delays. Yesterday I did continue past and make the U-Turn on Sukhumvit. On a small bike and needing to head right, one has to watch the traffic exiting the tunnel.... some come out of there racing! I am using Soi Yume to avoid Klang heading out of town.

Take a look in Simple Simon next time you visit immigration.

Well some chaos persists..... As I rode my little yammy Southbound on Sukhumvit yesterday morning, I positioned myself to keep my choices open, I was debating whether to use the new lights to get into Klang, or to pass on by and use the U-Turn and get onto Suk 42/2, cut through over Arunothai and pass by Pirates etc to Bongkhot, and pop out onto 3rd rd.....As luck would have it, the Right turn light went green, so I slipped in-front of the dopey locals as they put their phones down, and got onto Klang. Big mistake.... cable digging roadworks queued all the way back, traffic from Northbound Suk trying to push in, and so tight even the bikes could not squeeze through. This all could have been done when the tunnel was under construction and Klang was near empty and closed off at the top! It also struck me that traffic would move better if people were not still permitted to park Kerbside along Klang in the vicinity of the work where traffic has to merge. Merge is perhaps the wrong word, fight and jam up describes it better. Am I condemned to continue as per tunnel construction times?

What an excellently presented advert.

Mine seems to manage everything on 2 gas rings! Fitting a Thai kitchen, outside of course, was a first move when I got this house.

Quite simply... no oven! I don't do much cooking.. she does it Thai style.

When I was working in the USA I was doing similar, with real coffee, Folgers and a percolator. My problems from the habit were stomach related.

I have no idea what the place charges (later edit: 700 baht fan room) but under those circumstances I believe Khao Sahn Rd is where they head for. I remember seeing this place many yeas ago, if I am correct there was a pretty obvious 'No Sex Tourists' sign prominently displayed on the front, which surprised me as I was exploring from The Nana hotel at the time.

I was going to give the place a try only a few days ago and was put off by the appearance, seemed cramped and overly casual. Do they perhaps focus on eat-out.

Also the 'real' bread doesn't stay fresh very long, like the processed sliced stuff in the plastic bags. I love fresh bread and if I can get it from town to home quite quickly enjoy it at its best, but certainly not the next day. Keep in mnd I live 12 km out of town, and there is no bakery nearby. I used to live on soi Siam CC and there was spoiled by a French place nearby and a short trip for me or the Mrs in the morning.

I remember seeing your garlic toast before and being surprised that you seem to use regular sliced bread. Good alternatives available in Big-CX,, good Paninis, or Best on Nua near the Dolphin roundabout. I freeze some and microwave when needed, although I could do with some schooling how to get the best out of it.
