Valentine's Day ideas for your special one

[bbi1]

Haven't seen any talks of Valentine's Day here so thought I'd open up a thread. Anyone here planning to do anything special to celebrate this day with their special woman? What are all your plans?

Forget about all this flowers and chocolates bo**ox, buy her a new cover for the ironing board. If she says she doesn't need one it's time to find a new wife.

Alternatively, Big C have got a special offer on big bottles of fabric conditioner. BOGOF. She will luv u forever.

We're going for a candlelit soiree in soi 6 followed by a massage in that big palour on 2nd rd next to Central Marina.

It's going to a great surprise for Mrs Sid

Buy her a big pack of local strawberries doused in pesticide!  Valentines Day is just a Hallmark invention to sell cards.  Boycott!  Respect Thai culture...

What is Thai culture for Valentines Day? Isn't it the same all around the world?

Valentines day has sweet f.a to do with Thai culture.  it's a manufactured western event to create wealth for Hallmark & the like.  As usual Thais adopt it, like xmas etc.

The "respect thai culture" was tongue in cheek ????

Too funny.  

 

I just let my girlfriend pick a good place to eat.  This normally means somewhere with salmon sushi.

Out of respect for Thai culture here in the city of angels (often differs fro upcountry) which is to embrace all feasts foreign, we throw a pool-party a couple of times a year.  And we include all there is to celebrate, every event:  X-mas, Hanukah, Thanksgiving, Easter, Valentines-mothers-fathers day, Easter, Chinese-Muslim-Peemay-Western New Year etc. etc.  Thai buffet of course, but to honor som of the occasions we pick up a couple of drunk Brit. retirees from Pattaya and keep them for the weekend.  They're so sweet!  All pink, enormous bellies and they can be used as easter-bunnies, happy Buddhas, you can stick an apple in their mouth and serve them as part of thanks giving dinner, decorate them a bit and hang them up as angels for Xmas, hang them on the tree as candy etc. etc.  The only occasions we still have not found use for them is Hanukah and as a part of Thai Tradition.  I am sure we soon will work that out.
