I have had a big problem in the sock department. The cheapos that Big C and Tesco sell make my feet sweat and they last about 2 weeks before wearing out. The best socks I have found here are made by "Arrow". 295 baht for 3 pair and well worth the money.

Okay it was in Roi-Et, but a market vendor just inside Tesco Lotus was doing 5 pairs for 100 Baht. Really good quality, I've got size 11 (UK) feet.

Just need to keep an eye out and when you do find them stock right up.

As I retired in May this year and my normal attire is shirt, shorts and jandals I have great difficulty in understanding both work and socks.

Could someone please enlighten me? :)

Sure we will be happy to to enlighten you. First can you clarify? What's are jandals? :D

He is a Kiwi. I spent 30 years in NZ but now Oz. In Oz they are thongs. Sandal type thing with a strap that goes between the toes and back over each side of the foot, nothing else. Very comfortable but can cause problems when running at high speed or when wet. :-) Also treacherous in mud - I have lost a few in deep mud. Not sure what work means tho'. Been retired for 5 years. Work may be putting out the trash (rubbish) (garbage) etc etc. I'll check the online dictionary

Actually I am a Pom but I have spent my last working year in NZ.

Jandals was one thing I picked up and the other phrase which I found most useful was

Yeah, right

I means many things depending on the context it is used in.

An example

I am a multi-millionaire

Yeah, right

NZ is a beautiful country with more sheep than people, however like Thailand the majority of people are friendly and the food is OK there too.
