Khao Phat for Lunch

Thoroughly enjoyable account of the author's sudden move from the UK to Thailand to join her husband on his new overseas posting. She gives an amusing insight into their lives as expats, negotiating a different culture, language, food and everything in between! The author's wry sense of humour shines throughout and there are many laugh out loud moments. It's an engaging and warm read and I'm looking forward to a sequel.

Many happy memories of our holidays with you came flowing back with your hilarious book - the boys still talk about the unforgettable sights, sounds and even the taste of the delicious food, especially in the flying food market! Thank you for such an evocative and witty account of that chapter of your life. Can’t wait to read the next one.

I thoroughly enjoyed this wry romp through the vagaries of life as an expatriate in Thailand. Liz's humour shines through as she so vividly describes the many obstacles she and Mo have to negotiate during their time in this strange foreign land, so far in many ways from their native Scotland. Thank you, Liz, for bringing this very personal tale to your readers in such an illuminating way. A brilliant and compelling read!

I thoroughly enjoyed this book and the wonderful way it was written. I got to know Liz and she has nailed the life and times of expats aboard especially in these times and places where survival was up to the people who wanted to get to know and understand the culture and treasures that were available. Thrown into the small village life. No supermarkets. Wine when we could get it was a delight. The people more so. I have often explained to people what Liz taught me and that was learning how to cross a chaotic road - learn from the dog. I nailed it after that. A great read.

Well done Liz, so glad you wrote this book. I remember when I met you in the Phits all these years ago you were going to write this book, a wonderful read, couldn’t put it down, it brought back so many memories of being an ex-pat in Thailand. Looking forward to a sequel.
