Can't drink cider but say that was a popular ale like Abbott, or Old Speckled Hen, I'd think 100 baht a very good deal for an imported beer in Patts. Last time I drank cloudy cider I woke up in a deserted barn just outside of Mevagissey in Cornwall ........... some rat in the bottom of the barrel type of cloudy cider stuff. I was 15 at the time so .... not for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well firstly Thailand's import tax is ludicrous in the first place. You can get 24 cans of the same cider for around 15-20 quid in the UK. It's 3 or 4 times that in the UK. Good deal my arse. Absurd import tax and a ridiculous price overall. 😂😂😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

misteregg Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 Anyone notice that the Finnish bar on the corner of soi 15 and Second Road that showed the f1 is completely boarded up with corrugated iron. Looks like it might be goodnight from them.Bloody great location, other than being right opposite the school, so no naughty girls on show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once bought a flagon of Inches Scrumpy from a shop in Woolacombe, Devon, I was 13 and it was the late 60's. Bloody cloudy stuff but lovely. My mum wasn't very happy with me when I got home as I was on a Boy's Brigade camp retreat and thought it not very appropriate for a 13 year old to be buying alcohol when in the charge of the christian boy's army. Then again I was not impressed with the same bloody christian army corporal wanting to put his hand up my shorts when deciding to pray with me. I was however impressed with Karen, the cross eyed girl I met down the carnival in the next field, she had cold hands but didn't mind them up my shorts in the least. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
