Yet, last Tuesday I bought a large box of frozen Thai Tiger prawns from the the Mobile fish merchant at the local Market. Bloody expensive though.

 

 

They are loveley, dipped in Goggi then deep fried and then quickly dipped in my wifes special Nam Phra Pik

I'm sure it will hurt Thailand more than it will hurt Europe. Besides, Boeing needs the business, and America needs the cheap shrimp.

pests etc,and the process them in really unhealthy

Bad news all round for Thai Airways.  First of all, no Airbus (read no direct US-BKK flights) and then United tells them to take a hike on the agreement to buy their Boeing 747s.
