This is a LOS work permit which my ex-staff just surrendered to me this morning. Yes, it's the same size as a passport. The holder is suppose to carry this with him at his workplace. Inside this booklet, there are details of holder's job description, actual place of work and company name etc.

Here's my lunch. Chai Ben (Economy Rice) or known as Khao Gaeng (Rice Curry) in LOS.

White rice with egg omelette and fried vege/prawns (THB 45). Yes, I prefer fast and easy food during lunch time.

Engine capacity? My guess is at least 2.0 or 3.0 right?

Then the petrol cost can be quite high if use this vehicle for city driving.

2 models - 2.0L and 2.5L

My Tiida averages 13 km/L after a year. Not much of a saver too. But the undercarriage is quite solid, I must say. Glides over road bumps pretty effortlessly without transmitting the "shock" to the cabin.

Hehehe. Stick to your Tiida if it's not giving you any problems. BTW, I will be installing a NGV kit (THB 25K) on my VIOS as I will be travelling to Chonburi City (60KM from Sin City) very frequently (up to 3 times a week).

Not doing it on my older Ah Beng Civic cos' really don't like the idea of powering it with NGV. If got some budget during year end, will install GREDDY turbo kit. :smile:

Been talking about food all this while. What about exercise ?
Exercise = almost zero. Think the last time I really worked out was December last year in Surin and last last one was probably during the floodings when I have to moved items in Rayong/Prachin Buri.

However, think I will try to swim every morning since new apartment have a swimming pool. (will try)

You get to watch the sky and stars on your bed. Yes, all the places I stayed in Sin City must meet this criteria. I like to watch the stars and doze off. :*:
