CentralWorld fairly busy early evening.

A lot of Sales on at the moment could be the reason why.

Hi seedy , the idea of this game is to post the quote , ideally the most memorable part and allow others to try and work out who is supposed to have said/sung it. No points are awarded for answering your own question...????‍♂️????

Few people in the modern era are worthy of having quotes attributed to them, because virtually none of them/us have had a unique thought in our entire lives. We merely regurgitate and rephrase the writings and philosophies of the ancients.

 

The descriptor of "quote" in the philosophical sense should only be attributed to something said or written that is of such deep philosophical meaning that future philosophers spend their lifetimes examining the meaning and interpretations of one sentence.

 

Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee or similar - doesn't quite fit the criteria. 

Q2) ...Why so Serious ????️

"One suggested that entrants to the euphemistically named "Entertainment Complex" should be at least 21 years old and be able to prove they have a million baht in the bank."

Another suggestion being , that those wishing to exit should be able to prove that they have substantially less than a million baht in the bank.

Oh! , and must still be at least 21 years old! ????‍♂️

When I was young (and I have it on good authority , that I was once) , we used to play a game called hangman , where you had to find the name of eg. a film , actor , sportsperson or the like , from a number of guesses of the letters in the name.

Another game of a similar nature was charades , which , as far as I know still popular today.

So a variation on a theme here for some amusement this Friday afternoon.

I will kick of with part or all of a famous quote and first to get the correct answer , gets to post up the next quote...

Where only part of a quote is given , then the remainder of the quote , along with the author will constitute the complete answer.

eg. Float like a Butterfly , _____ ____ _ ___.

ans. Sting like a Bee & Muhammed Ali 

here goes!

A nice easy one to get the ball rolling..

The Suan Dusit Poll, by Suan Dusit University, gauged the opinions of 1,392 people from various groups across the country between October 11th and 14th

I thought that with over 1,000 respondents in Thailand the correct term should be Super Poll.

I'm happy and I know it...????

a couple of UK sites that may be of interest to you :- www.watchfinder.co.uk & www.chasingchrono.com , also a lot of good info from Paul Thorpe's youtube Channel.

If in London , check out Grays Antique Market , close to Bond St tube station , several good dealers in there.

Some more , a small arcade on the LHS if coming from Oxford St on New Bond St ,. about 150m.

Royal Arcade further down LHS again on Old Bond St.

For Classic /Vintage Rolex Burlington Arcade.

alternatively , go onto chrono24 and do a dealer search for Thailand where you will find details of registered dealers , mostly in Bangkok area , there is also a dealer in Khon Kaen who advertises on bahtsold.com

I bought my Rolex SeaDweller DeepSea locally through these guys watchbyladda.com, they have been selling high end timepieces for several years now , check them out for yourself though. 

So , the Swiss guy 10 years older than the armed intruder  , manages to take the gun of him and then beat the sh*t out of him in a “furious fist & foot fight” ' ties up the intruder and then goes and wakes up the wife. What is the name of that coffee , I need to get some of that. ????????

He knows. I've met him and he's a clever man. He'll certainly be well aware of the implications of another spike in cases due to a relaxing of the rules too soon. 

Did you get a selfie with him?

AFAF.

When you hunt high and low for your specs , only to find them sometime later perched on top of your head , or worse still , that you are wearing them.

I used to ask the mrs. , have you seen my specs?  and she would just say no or do the hot/cold thing and have me spinning round in circles.

Here in Phuket , we have a store named Supercheap , branches all over the island , two brands available , brand 1) 500g at 37 baht , brand 2) 500g at 41 baht.

I buy regularly , usually 2kg at a time , as I make my own peanut butter.
