Tricky Micky Posted October 19, 2023 Author Share Posted October 19, 2023 As we come to the end of our visit with Tan's family in Thailand unfortunately her grandmother passed away yesterday. There will now be 3 days of mourning which will include a 3-day wake and the chanting of the monks in the village. There will be food and drinks and the celebration of the grandmother's life. She had an incredible innings for someone who lived off the land. RIP 12 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A co-worker of mine had to go back to Vietnam for his grandmother's funeral a few weeks back and while he was there, his great grand mother passed away. She was 100. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popo the Reprobate Posted October 21, 2023 Share Posted October 21, 2023 (edited) Nice photos @Tricky Micky. Thanks. I enjoy looking at people's travel pics. Sorry for your family's loss. There is probably some consolation that as sad as a loss is, you are also able to be there to celebrate her life. Take care.

Malter White Posted October 21, 2023 Share Posted October 21, 2023 I was fortunate enough to visit Thailand in 2009 - my first trip OS. It was fascinating and your pics show it still is. I was always amused by their power lines. Obviously a sad time for you all but also sort of a blessing Tan was able to be with her family when grandmother passed. R.I.P. @Tricky Micky The cooking implement that resembles a truck wheel - do you know the how, what and why of it's functions? I've never seen one before. It looks like it saves meat juices on the perimeter to make soups and sauces later perhaps? I don't know. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The truck wheel thingy is a Thai BBQ can be either gas fired or use charcoal as the fuel. The idea is to cook meat fish or shell fish in the middle section and put the vege etc in the stock in the moat section of the bbq. The protein juices run off into the stock and create an awesome flavour. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmar92 Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 Mookata I believe it is known as in Thai. I can vouch that it can produce some great meals. Thanks for the photo's Mick. Thailand is a great country to experience another culture and way of life. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
