In the last week we have seen the opening of another mini-mart in Old Town, next door to the LMS office. Along with the normal stuff that every shop sells, the owners (Attit & Sue) have added a ‘farang’ corner. Here you will find the shopping delights of Pasta, olive oil, mustard, bacon, sausage, cheese, ham, butter and even salami. If you’re looking to privision your fridge or boat, don’t miss a trip to Khun Attit’s store.

Khun Attit speaks fluent English and like many of the townsfolk, he is a descendant of the original settlers. He was actually born in the LMS office! (before we got here!) Next time you visit, pop in and have a chat with him while you buy some bacon!
