Prawns

Hey Y'all. I was listening to the Aussie radio station Nova 100 online today while I am at work. Good Stuff. Anyway, I heard an advertisement for Tiger Prawns on special for $AUD21.98 per kilogram.

That's not bad. In Australia. I go to the local market here in Jomtien, Thailand, and can get almost 5 kg for the same price. Maybe cheaper because I can barter on the price if I want that many. But I usually only get 1 kilogram for around 140 baht, or $AUD4.70. ANd I know these buggers are fresh, because they come from the water that morning. And were caught the night before.

I do have something else I want to talk with you about, but I want to wait until this weekend, because it's happening two weekends in a row. I want to see how this weekend goes before I open my big mouth.

SO for those of you that don't read this before Xmas next week, Merry Xmas, and Happy New Year. For the others that read this every day (maybe none of you do), I'll write more later

Cheers
