Thursday 4thof May 2017and as I'm going to India and then to Sri Lanka the same day I return home to Bangkok I needed to prepare for some refreshments to bring with me. TOPS Market and I know they have home delivery so this was my choice.
I went to the customers counter and I asked for 4 cases of Pepsi MAX. They called a guy and we went to investigate. He threw a case of Pepsi MAX on the floor. Turned out to be a misunderstanding. He thought that I wanted one case. I explained that I needed 4 (FOUR) cases. He went to look for more Pepsi MAX and he was soon back with one more case. And that was it. They were only able to provide me with 2 cases.
I was not impressed when he brought 1 (ONE) case Seriously, I got worried. This will not be enough!
He found a second case and that was it!
They found a cardboard box for my refreshments
So, done deal. Now I just have to go find an additional 2 cases of MAX
Well, I will try LAWSON 108 on Sukhumvit Soi 23 to see if they have 2 cases for me for my safari in Sri Lanka. Jo du Masken, sicket jävla springande för lite gött o dricka! Men sicken festd blir i Bombay, jag misstänker att jag är den enda av all miljoner i byn som kan “kicka back” med en gottis när man kommer hem från skolan.
I paid everything and I went back home to wait for the delivery from Tops Market. This is a very good service, the reason for me to become a member with Tops. On line shopping and, well, as no surprise this turned out to be not as good as I had expected.
I only used the service once. They have my name and address all wrong, tried to call and rectify it. Yeah, good ducking luck! They delivered 200 bottles of San Miguel when I had ordered San Miguel Light. But buying the stuff in the shop asking them to send it home works well.
My MAX
have arrived
My MAX
ready for transportation to the airport
And Masken, the saga continous. Ingen ände på skiten. Springa runt hela Bangkok för att hitta en flaska här o en flaska där. Jaja, lite motion fick man ju ut av det och det är ju inte dåligt, på en freda kväll när man kunde ha varit ute och druckit öl och skämmt ut sig.
I went to Lawson 108 but they only had 4 bottles. I bought their last bottles and I kept them in my pocket walking back home. I made one more stop and they had one box of Pepsi MAX
. They had 9 more bottles, almost enough to fill the two cardboard boxed they had provided me with.
I took one of the 4 bottles form Lawson 108 and the boxes were full. 34 bottles and I decided to take these two boxes to Bombay as I know they have Diet Pepsi, at least at IBIS hotel. I don't know about Holiday inn, anyway, I have 34 bottles, should be enough if I go easy.
She found a box of MAX
for me
360 Baht for a case of Diet MAX
She found two cardboard boxes for me
She help me to pack the MAX
in my boxes
One box is full and 5 bottles in the other box and I asked for more MAX
They only had 9 more bottles of MAX
They only had 9 more bottles of MAX
34 x 50cl of the best MAX
money can buy I bought the 4 last bottles at Lawson 108 So I kept 3 in my pockets and I had a case + 10 bottles for Bombay
It was heavy and I had to stop for a quick “POWER” rest on the way home
So, finally, one pack for Sri Lanka and 2 small packages of MAX
for Bombay
Then I will keep the other big box with 48 bottles for my safari on Sri Lanka. Good, now I'm set for both of my trips. Coming home from India and I just have enough time to change my bag before going back to the airport for my flight to Colombo.
Yeah, this might turn out to be one success story of Thailand export. Won't be surprised if Thai chamber of commerce call me to give me some kind of prize.
Masken, the saga continues...
Såja “TOMPA” Nu bär d av!
Mina packet ska bara in i bilen
D e ju som ett skepp lastat me gottisar
En av AOT's flinkaste killar
En av AOT's flinkaste killar
OK, time to check-in. Let's see how this turns out
She asked what I had in the boxes
No problem. According to the girl it was normal to check in 24 kg Pepsi MAX
OH YEAH! This happens several times per day
My refreshments are properly tagged
So, on the way to Thai Airways flight TG 317
My last box coming down the conveyor belt
Now I willhopefully see my MAX
in Bombay
Jo du Masken, man blir ju lite piss i byxan o hoppar runt i soffan. Kommer det fram?
I could see one of my Pepsi packs on the luggage belt when I came down from the immigration. I had to wait a while for my bag and I could see the second Pepsi pack coming on the luggage belt a few minutes later. Passing the custom and my boxes went through the X-Ray but no one said anything. They were waiting for me from Holiday Inn when I came out from the terminal.
My driver took my luggage and we were soon on our way to an elevator and the car. It was so nice when I finally sat down in the back of the car.
My last box coming on the luggage belt
So, my MAX
had passed the custom inspection
My driver takes charge of my luggage
In the park house elevator
Finally in the back of the car. Can I?
Yes, I think so
Ja va fan Masken! D e ju lörda kväll
Du, Thooomaas nu har du väl fått en snacksi o snacka om
Du Masken, den däringa MAXI gottisen försvann ju som en huvudvärks tablett. Men fan va skönt att “nästan” vara framme. Sista metrarna o man kan gå o lägga sig.
Ännu en X-Ray Masken
Soon at my room
Finally at my room at Holiday Inn Mumbai International Airport
Jaja Masken, the saga continues, men nu får du hitta någonting annat att snacka om på era “lång” raster. Men håll ut, snart e d dags att ta off till Sri Lanka så då ska jag ha med mig den “stora” boxen. Hur ska det gå? En riktig “cliff hanger” som ni kan roa er med på många kaffe raster.
