Well this is it, thanks for some of you who see my point. Cheap Charlie or not, isn't the bar owner being tight fisted more than me? I will pay upto 60baht for soda wateralbeit the 330ml or the 500ml bottle. But i dont expect a 200ml glass full of ice and a thimble full of soda water in it.

It is the principal of the thing as well as the - rip off the farang.

Believe me I am on a budget, people think I am crazy living on 12k a month - 4k rent, 1k electric, 1k telephone/adsl, 6k to live off is little. So you see I try and be careful..After a short trip to Udon Thani last month, I really loved it there and was a change for the better. Soda 20baht.... bottle of beer from 40baht...i think heineken was 60 a bottle.
