Spotify is available in Cambodia now, as of last week I believe. Only $2.99 for premium as well.John Bingham wrote: ↑Sun Jan 17, 2021 11:07 pm Good warranties, Spotify, PayPal, reasonably priced dairy goods.

Decent socks, especially in my size, that hold for a while and not weeks. Only thing I ever ask of family when they come over.

McDonalds works very hard trying to make their food taste the same everywhere. Even has Hamburger University to set uniform tastes. So a McDonald’s in a far away distant land, tastes the same as the one everyone grew up with. Which can be comforting to travelers looking for a bit of a taste of home.Grand Barong wrote:No McDonalds Restaurant's which is a GOOD thing.

You are a better man than me, Nuke. ^^^
McDonalds and optimism will probably save your life one day.
I'm gonna die of starvation on a street full of Macca's.
Desperately optimistic that the real Aussie/Greek hamburger (the best in the world) will one day come back - and still cursing McDonalds with my very last breath.

Lucky Premium at Exchange Square used to have it. And then they downsized their store and no longer stock it. Is there another Lucky Premium around? Or maybe the big Lucky (formerly Giant) near Olympic Stadium might have it.

In the Kingdom, Guinness extra cold on tap is missing. It's a mediocre existence with such hardships, made all the worse by the fact that over here in the other Kingdom, it's a social crime, bordering on insurrection to even harbour thoughts of venturing outside for such trifling matters. All the pubs are closed, though. So that's ok-ish.
In the reverse direction, Root Beer never took off properly in the UK. There were a couple of nasty facsimiles of it, and Bunderbuggerer is occasionally available. During my last stay in Phnom Penh, AW root beer started to get scarce. It's all chipping away at my desire to be a model citizen, if not my will to live.
