  • The setting of the acclaimed films ‘Bridge on the River Kwai’ and ‘The Railway Men’, Kanchanaburi is a town of 30,000 with many stories to tell. Home to two world-class museums and a number of significant World War II sites, Kanchanaburi packs a serious punch for anyone interested in history.
  • Located 250km north-west of Bangkok, Kanchanaburi is a leafy provincial town of broad boulevards, riverside dining and a surprisingly exuberant nightlife scene. Whether passing through en route to the array of national parks further north or making a side trip here from Bangkok, there is plenty for the visitor to explore here.

      What did you listen to today?

      Any Smiths fans here? For years I was not too fond of them, but I recently "clicked" and now love them. Here is lead singer Morrissey performing one of their classics in Manchester.

      News Forum - Thai couple loses over 11 million baht to trusted employee

      "Matichon reported that the suspect’s father is a police officer. She and her father are now fighting in the court to make herself clean." Well that'll be why the police decided to do nothing then (apart of course from their institutional laziness), maybe the father needs to be arrested too either as an accessory or at the least for perverting the course of justice by ensuring no police action was taken!

      News Forum - Pastry drama: Temu croissant lamp turns out to be edible (video)

      Those ceramic knives are great. Sharp as a razor but you have to be careful with them. They dislike hitting bone or anything hard but great for fruit, veg or boneless meat. Never figured out how to sharpen them properly tho. Might need a specialist stone or something. I also got battery powered clippers. Rechargeable from Lazada. Panasonic branded. The missus uses them for my monthly hair cut and prefers them over corded clippers like Wahl. Picked up a good 2nd hand Japanese catering knife a few months back. 450 baht but holds a good edge. A bit prone to surface rust but if it's oiled and it's fine.
