THE LAST CHRISTMAS POST
It seems like a long time ago now but just before Christmas we had an office Christmas party - in the office after work. It was a lot of fun, and all the staff were asked to wear something colorful.
Obviously I entered into the full spirit of the occasion and wore my union jack flat cap and golden patchwork jacket. I know I look like a cross between Del Boy and I-dunno-what but it was Christmas after all.
The malls in Bangkok are still playing Christmas carols and songs; the only difference appears to be the decorations are now up to 40% reduced.

By now you are no doubt also hearing the perennial favorite "Sawadii Pii Mai Leaw" played over and over and over...
in the helium-induced uber-high-pitched ear-piercing tone. hip places like zen department store at central world plaza ought to get the chipmunks to do a cover. the chipmunks incidentally is in theatres now.
I was in a mall yesterday and even saw Father Christmas doing the rounds. Crazy.
And until yesterday I didn't realise that Father Christmas was a Thai ! :-)
Happy 2008 to you!
