Hooray for... Hancock park
Brunch, Andrew Biggs, Published on 25/04/2010
» You know, back when I was living in Bangkok I was a pretty modest kind of guy. I know that sounds like I've been living here in Los Angeles for an eternity, as opposed to 14 nights, but I can tell you I've changed.

Unplugged in Gadget Mad LA
Brunch, Andrew Biggs, Published on 18/04/2010
» America has gone iPad crazy. I know. I'm here witnessing it first-hand. No clever observances about Thai life this week. It's hard to write a breezy column about the nuances and idiosyncrasies of Thai life when the country is descending into anarchy and mob rule.

A gem of a story: Part II
Brunch, Andrew Biggs, Published on 11/04/2010
» This is part two of an exciting story which started last week on this very page. Normally I have no time for readers who miss a week of this column, but if for some unfathomable reason you did, here is a brief synopsis:

That will do nicely, sir

» Not a month goes by without another education bribery or corruption story hitting the presses. Graft in education is not new, and it is prevalent in many countries, not just in Thailand. By putting several stories together, I can see how attractive it must be for unscrupulous educators.

A testing time for students
Brunch, Andrew Biggs, Published on 07/03/2010

Dozens and dozens of tapes came rolling in, and so one Monday we set aside the entire day to listen to them.

Lasting Friendships can be a tall order
Brunch, Andrew Biggs, Published on 21/02/2010
» I was having a solitary lunch last Tuesday with my dear friend Evil Neil when a phone call came out of the blue. A phone call on my cellphone, that is. Regular readers are cognizant of Neil, a helpless victim of corporate cellular phone advertising who changes his phone as often as we eat somtam, and who, with every new device, plasters Superglue between it and his ear so that it's permanently stuck to his head - hence my "solitary" lunch with him last Tuesday.

My favourite Valentine's day
Brunch, Andrew Biggs, Published on 14/02/2010
» Valentine's Day is special for me - I first came to Thailand on that day in 1989. But there was another Valentine's Day in Thailand that turned out to be the most memorable in my life. It is not the most "sanook" story I have, but I am going to tell it to you anyway.

An ode to the service industry
Brunch, Andrew Biggs, Published on 10/01/2010
» This is a column for my Thai readers only. That's because I want to teach them a lesson about their service staff. I want to make a complaint and I want Thais to sit up and take notice. Simply put ... what on earth has happened to good ol' service these days? I'm talking about restaurants.
