Let's play a game. What groceries will Matt get?

Does anyone know if matt's list of groceries are available in Vietnam ?

Thanks Francois for the opportunity to continue the derailment of this thread. As a matter of fact, all of the items on Matt's list are available at the Citimart on the ground floor of my apartment building in the Saigon suburb of Phu My Hung, and elsewhere in the city. Maybe Matt could send his Lao friend here to fill a shopping cart. lol

Genuinely surprised the Tarntawan Hotel hasn't been mentioned yet

Well it has now. A review would be nice.

How come? Are you anticipating to die at sea or by drowning?

Ah-ha! I do believe you’ve inadvertently stumbled upon a very profound subject sglad. One-eyed Moody, er, scrub that I mean . . . One-eyed Jelly, has noticed that your post has gone unanswered. I think we now know the real reason why arsenal point blank refused to travel on the Pattaya-Hua Hin ferry. It was nothing to do with those pesky Chinese tour groups; it looks like he had a premonition of dying at sea and now has a pathological fear of drowning.

There, I’ve managed to further derail this topic by mentioning the Pattaya-Hua Hin ferry to begin on New Year’s Day topic.

Oh, and you wanted an up-to-date hotel review arsenal, well I overheard a group of fa-ràng at Dick’s Café in Soi Twilight, last night saying they’d heard the Tatty-wan Hotel had been taken over by a Chinese property development company and they intended demolishing the dilapidated old dump and proposed building a five star glitz and glamour hotel in its place. Great! No more whining about minor changes in staff or complaints that all-day breakfast is no longer available.

Now, how can I work in the Chinese again? Ah, yes, or is this just a Chinese whisper?

And Matt still hasn't told us what groceries he got!

And, finally, getting back on topic, and as bobsaigon2 said above, are we ever going to find out if cdnmatt ever got all the items on his shopping list. I’ve had sleepless nights worrying about this subject and if I’m ever to get a good night’s sleep I need closure on this. Do you get me cdnmatt?

I'm in Hue, Vietnam, and happy to look for groceries to give me a calmer activity than dodging motorbikes. I did walk past the Tarntawan Hotel the other day on my way to Art Massage where a young man gave me good service on the top floor. Any tips for a gay time in Hue?

Everyone is happy to look for groceries Mancs. It's getting some idiot on that bloody ferry that is the problem. No wonder they didn't want gays in the military if that's the attitude.
