Is it a real or created shortage to bump prices up never to return to the old level?

Oh no what are we going to do.

I have an idea Jamie why don't we go in business together and import a few boat loads of your special " Ladyfinger bananas " otherwise known as Chuoi Xiem or Kluai Nam.

Yes a brand new one it cost him £3.51 to have it built in bamboo ship yard. :laugh:

Think the locals are planning on erecting a ( William Gray ) type statue to show appreciation for his commitment to the shipyard industry in Thailand.

Apparently the profits from this build alone enabled the local council to open 7 new schools and a giant hospital. clappp
