In fact I admire all you have achieved against a lot of odds in bringing a successful business to Udon and in the process improved the culinary experience of a lot of us Farang .Firstly I will say this is a forum. a place for discussion and debate, of course it would be rather boring if we couldn't have a laugh, even at ourselves , sometimes .However when I click on a subject heading expecting to see some news or discussion about Udon , or any other , for that matter, I don't expect to be reading a fantasy tale about dogs . Obviously there are some that see the funny side of it, but I suggest that it's place is under the jokes topic, that's all .The second point I will make is, you aren't doing yourself any favours by presenting this image of being a crackpot, when it's obvious you aren't . But this latter is nothing to do with me as some pointed out, just a bit of fatherly advice .Don't know why I bother, my own kid didn't, don't suppose you will .
Miss you and Dao in the shop though .Val
Thanks and point taken ...... DAD !!....
As you do most who know me are aware im not a crackpot or a dummy but do try to inject a bit of humour into whatever i participate in whether a forum of day to day things ,,,, theres a fine line between insanity and genius and you need to drop some where in between to succeed in business especially here in Thailand along with a good woman and hard working ethics ,,, as i feel Steve n Nung have tho get little credit for their endeavours.
As for Bisto ringing the bell ,,, he told me he would never speak to me again if i didnt let him do it !!!
BTW ,, i do actually miss the shop a little bit and some of the customers ,,, still see them around town and Dao passes on messages as shes still working in the shop .
