Ya gotta stop lording it round Hua Mak with your Heineken rgs...get on the Archa an try to fit in with the local gentry living in their 24sqm apartments. Recently my local 7-11 started stocking some weird beers. Some 'white' beers, some with cherries and even a chang coffee-ated or whatever it was called. Never afraid when duty calls I tried most and can report with confidence: DON'T BOTHER. Even Archa is better My favourites are the 'Craft beer' establishments where the cheapest ale is 375B. No no chance to buy a pint of Leo...ho ho ho I start whistling 'Walk on By.....'

Having Art Carabao playing was good compensation.

I just got banned from the guinea pig Facebook page for telling some idiot to throw her guinea pig into the forest and get a stray cat. Apparently she can't afford 50 cents a week for hay. Social media isn't for everyone, moderators and posters alike can't handle simple truths these days and you'd be a bad man for uttering them....shame on you Oldie, have you no compassion, the owner will probably need therapy for years after that...... arf arf. Talking of simple truths and this may seem a little risque but it's an honest to God question that truly worries me and I need to know the answer: how do I refer to a person with the opposite color skin to white and still remain politically correct and not risk offending anyone, is it black person, a person of color, an Afro-American, a negro? Or do I have to ask a list of questions first to determine their heritage so as to be able to apply the correct label? An FB friend got a warning for a post, saying it broke their standards. A woman replied with retort in kind. He reported it, but that wasn't against their standards. I think it depends if you are left or right of centre.

I aint paying 375 baht for a beer, I am paying for the privilege of being in a window licker and porch monkey free zone, wow betide you if you fire up a cigar thats the eqiuvalent of a teflrs daily wage, whilst skint brexit pensioner from nakon nowhere in his sandals and black socks rolls up another old holborn.

Its always about options....best to have them all at your disposal I find.

The Cape Coloured Community have an annual New Year's Day festival still known (by everybody there including the Coloureds) as the Coon's Carnival. Not sure how FB cope with that.
