we needed to buy a couple of things for our bar-b-q this evening,
parking the bike I had a quick look around,
it was still quite early for the market so there was plenty of room to park,
the market does not really start till about 4.00 in the afternoon,
the good news was that the pineapple stall was up and running,
as was the mushroom stall,
but these were what we were after, prawns for the kebabs,
then back to the bike past the fresh vegetables,
and egg stall,
I wonder what they feed the chickens to make pink eggs?
later after smoking out the neighbours the charcoal was glowing nicely,
too nicely actually, Diana put some ash on the charcoal as it was so hot,
garlic bread, prawn and chicken kebabs,
with baked potatoes and onion bom-boms,
'cheers!',
I previously said prawn kebabs but the prawns were wrapped in bacon, with a slice of pineapple between each one, delicious!
we also had a few spring rolls to nibble on,
yummy,
then time for the main course, on with the sausages,
complete with potatoes and onions, all followed by some fresh fruit, we sat outside for some time then after going inside watched a new episode of The Chase and Hungry Sailors, a couple from Cheers, then for us we were off to bed.

Stanley, I love your blog and its great to see how much you enjoy life.
Can I ask you roughly how much baht you would need a month to live a life similiar to yours.
Keep up the good work

Man, you eat too much food.
Dear Anon, there are so many variables to consider, for instance health care, BUPA for both of us is roughly 90,000 baht per year, would you want that? it makes a huge difference to the calculations, not to mention things like satellite and cable television subscriptions, burglar alarm monitoring and maintenance, house/condo rent and so many other things that you may or may not need, as for eating out each meal is roughly 300-400 baht each plus drinks, if you are thinking of staying out here the best advice is come over for a extended time, say 3 months and take stock of your expenditure at the end of the period, best regards, Stan and Diana.
Dear Elliot, it looks like I eat a lot but I am actually loosing weight, if you look at my profile when I first started writing our blog I was 90 kilos, I am now around 83-84 kilos consistently, the trick is to eat a little and for meals where we do not go out for most of them to eat salads, best regards, Stan and Diana.
