I woke up at 8am and decided to go for a walk/ run down beach road. At most of the bars, there was one old guy drinking a beer. I was a bit shocked to see this. 

 

Recently I went for a late breakfast 1130am with an old POM friend of mine whose aged in 70s. We walked into a bar/rest' and he saw the fridge with beers in it. He couldn't help himself. He ordered a full English breakfast but didnt drink the hot tea included. 

 

What time do you have your first one. Are you in control of your habit?

What time do you have your first one.

... whenever I want 

 

Are you in control of your habit?

... yes, as not habitual with me

Why does it matter if someone has a beer at 8 a.m. or at lunch? It's what makes them happy, and they aren't harming you or anyone else. Sounds like you are judging them because their habits are different than yours. You are apparently a young person as you're refer to these guys as "old men". They spent a lifetime working hard. Let them live their lives the way they want. I never hear the "old men" I know complaining about all the young people staying out until 2 in the morning at bars getting wasted. These guys that you talk about are simply having a beer so leave them to live their life the way they want. No judgment please.

Well...been a long night but eventually dawn comes. Drag out that last beer then hit the sack early morning. Up with the sunset then rinse and repeat.

I fully agree, don't  judge people that way. 

 

Smoking cigarettes also, the condition some of these old geezers are in is appalling. 

I would need to be drinking at that time to stand being in Pattaya, in Bkk I can stick it out until 10Am normally.

Plenty of life in a creaking gate,, well in to the fella..

I have always wanted to have a beer at breakfast. Will try that one day, but not every day. ????

Worry about yourself, geezer, not them, their condition is none of your business.

Frühschoppen (pronounced [fʁyːʃɔpən], meaning: an alcoholic drink before midday in company) is the German and Austrian tradition of meeting up at a pub, inn or tavern in the late morning, usually on Sundays. The specific customs vary from region to region. Frühschoppen is often a kind of brunch, but does not necessarily involve food. Frühschoppen is also often held at fun fairs, the most famous being Oktoberfest or Cannstatter Volksfest.

The last time I saw that I thought he was eyeing me.

 

Then I realized that he had a full face tattoo, tattooed onto the back of his bald head.

It's appalling to see these old geezers who are so bent out of shape from their lack of basic self respect.   

Just one small beer in the morning is plenty enough alcohol to completely ruin one's entire day.

 

One shot, and one's day is shot. 

 

Imbibing in the mornings is a sign of boredom. 

 

Rather than drinking a beer in the AM, would it not be far more healthful to get some hand jive,  just to lessen your boredom, instead?

If old guys want to have a beer at "breakfast" time, so what? Does it affect anyone else?

 

Better than taking illegal drugs and causing problems all day long like youths do these days.

Goblin mode is a prefect word to describe many of the youths I see causing trouble at any time of day.

the scientific worldwide name of this behaviour is an alcoholic. here inthaila

the name of this disable people sickness is called alcoholic. you will find many of those in Pats
