  • Trading the stress and the anxiety of a fast-paced culinary career, for the peace and the tranquillity of rural off-grid thailand…

    Whoa the contrast between the hectic professional kitchen vs your peaceful farm life is REAL!!❤

    Maybe. Add a plant pot by that space till the puppies get bigger.
    Your home is lovely.

    Any excuse to get the blue pipe out, mate!
    I bet you and Anna slept soundly your first night, especially with those 2 'ferocious' puppies guarding the farm!
    The house looks fantastic Ben and Anna, well worth the stress and effort.
    I thought the vlog was going to be about the contrast between your former life as an overworked, underpaid, and stressed-out chef, and your new life as a fully paid-up member of the Blue Pipe Academy!
    Best regards, Tony in Bangkok

      Mate, I was thinking the exact thing. Any excuse to get that blue pipe out. Upsets me when its not in a video

    If the idea with the plastic is to suppress weed growth, no dirt should be on top of the plastic. Also black perferated plastic works best because it keeps the sun from reaching the soil. Google Arizona rock landscaping ideas.

      You can cut a hole in the mesh later for any planting needs.

    A siphon is a hose or pipe that can move liquid from a reservoir via a higher point into a lower reservoir, without the need for pumping. The assumption is that the higher part of the pipe is already filled with liquid.

    I still think you should make that front corner a Koi pond 👍

    The intro is an action movie depiction of the 'P & C'!
    Parallels & Contrasts!!!!
    Wow and wow!
    Being here in Europe in the eye of the hurricane, living so dynamically and all of that, I am just wondering how Europe and the UK are still holding up!
    The intro is perfect for showing how deeply wrong we may have been getting it for all that time...
    Cheeryo, Sir! Carry on! 💪💪💪

    You did say in an earlier video that the annoying gap at the bottom of the steps was a real flaw in what otherwise looks an impressive property. Hopefully your puppy will learn from its error getting stuck 😎

    Yes, this clay/sand soil in Isaan is a pain in the arse. Hard as a rock during dry season, slippery muck during rainy season.

    Yes you quit but I bet you can still smoke a pan. I’m hungry; I’m on my way; will be rather early; I’ll be rather loud when I arrive. Consider it the breakfast bell. HA!

    Take it easy Ben. Britain gave Football, Cricket, Comedy and The Full English Breakfast to the world. You can't expect everyone to understand all of them immediately, and so, hilarious references to ladyboys whenever you wear your very fetching tights might not be understood completely by Anna. Give it time and she will be quoting entire passages from Blackadder and The Holy Grail.

    I was wondering if you'd had a house blessing.
    If I had a home in Thailand I'd hate the fuss of a blessing.

    • @LifeinThailand777
      @LifeinThailand777  Před 9 měsíci +1

      We just kept it very low-key. I’m not a fan of mixing religion with business, and most of the house blessings I see in Thailand are exactly that. Or they’re an excuse for a load of ppl you never usually say hello to, to have a free lunch at my expense 😆

    Tell Anna I said thank you! Your content is always fabulous but it did always bother me a bit when you called your ninja socks "lady boy" socks. I really appreciate you putting in the effort to be respectful of people of the lgbtq community!
