Random Bangkok Pics - November

More random pics stolen from the internet.

Plumbers Convention

The view from my bar stool at the Robin Hood two weeks in a row.

 

 

New Champ

There's a new Eggs Benedict champ in Bangkok at a small French cafe on Soi Ruam Rudee

Yum

Before And After

Last weekend, Nuch and I joined the St Andrews Ball for the 2nd year in a row.

Here is the Before pic.

 

Nuch in mid-hair flip

 

Pleasantly, surprised that my suit still fits.  This is only the second time I've worn it

 

Some videos of the opening ceremony

                                        

                                        

My yearly dose of Haggis

 

 Typical of any Scottish event - too much alcohol

 

With Frans our leather supplier 

 

 This is about 5 hours in.  Ties are coming off and memories are getting fuzzy

 

and the After picture. 

 

Hold The Ketchup

There's a new cafe near my factory.  Looked great, tasted great, and not expensive.

 

My only complaint (and this goes for every diner I've ever been to) - why do ketchup bottles always feel like they've been washed in Vaseline?

 

The Honest Ones

A common sight at department store kiosks around closing time.

This reminds me of when my mom had the deck off her bedroom made into a sun room.  For a week, her bedroom had no wall.  After the construction team had finished for the day, they would put up a giant tarp.  When asked if this was burglar-proof the guy looked at it and said - nope, but at least it will keep the honest ones out.

Bangkok Steak-off

Last weekend we held the 1st Annual Bangkok International Steak Off

 Surprise - Japan took 1st and 2nd places, followed by Argentina, the US, Australia, and Thailand

 

 

 

Cousins

Nuch's had recently dug through some old boxes and found a bunch of old frames and photos.

Here is Nuch and her brother with their cousins.

Couch Time

Tipper's favorite spot.

Somtam Aroi

The Vietnamese auditors from IKEA say they come to check on our production systems and product quality, but they really come for Somtam (papaya salad).

 

Another Nope

You can keep this along with your KFC waffle cone.

Pineapple pizza is bad enough.  Now, there's Turian pizza.

Chick And Cone

Another reason to come to Thailand.
