Re: yabbies?
We looked at farming them about ten years ago. We visited an NGO in Takeo that had several tanks and were trying to breed them to supply to farmers as another crop. There was an abandoned place down there with several huge ponds but they were so overgrown that pumping the water out and refurbishing ...

Re: Cost of living crisis
Big price rises in Australia. Food much more expensive but rents worse. A room in a share house has gone from $200 to $250 and a house at least $500 a week. Thai or Cambodian rice is now $4.50 a kg. Used to be $2.50 I think. How much is rice in Cambodia. A few bargains here, mandarins are $2.75 and ...

Loved Browns, John’s hotel, putting the moto on the bus ir just riding down there. Drinking cold cans and eating BBQ squid with the family on afternoons at Ochateul. Taking girlf...

Re: Manhunt After Nagaworld Casino Pawnbroker Murdered and Robbed
In the West the cops always go after the husband or partner. The chances of being murdered by a random stranger are very low.

Re: Kep or Kampot? The Trip Report. Day 2
Great review Hanno. What is in the ugly high rise building? Is it apartments? How much development has there been in Kampot. Here in Qld myself and my 10 year old shared a kayak a couple of years ago and did a few ks paddling around Double Island. We began before dawn, the sun rise was incredible, t...

Re: Scammed at Larry’s Bar
Bongmab says there is a bar on 136 with 50 cent beers. It must be packed every night. I never visited a bar on 136 with 50 cent beers. But back to Larrys. The old cameras not working scam is the oldest trick in the book. Surely any manager would ensure that his cameras were working 100% of the time....
