grumpyoldman Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 People walking with ski poles............... Could never understand this one. Why if you are just out walking do you need poles? GuruDude and female companion. Probably American, don't know anything about geography and think they are in India. She's middle of the road and dang good catch for GuruDude, you'll see them walking about Sai Yuen in beige bedsheets. Cafe Java opening up, owner had a pretty good thing going in Kamala before getting the big swampings due to a certain large tidal wave a few years back, opened in Patong for awhile now has landed in Rawai. I think worth a go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shot Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 Walking or trekking poles (hi-so) are supposed to give you an overall better workout, while decreasing the strain on the knees and back. Never stick your pole into an unknown crack or crevice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 People walking with ski poles...............Could never understand this one. Why if you are just out walking do you need poles? So it has surfaced here too. Dementia skiing as we call it back in Finland has been around for an long time. Looks stupid but it's supposed to be really good workout for the upper body, specially for elderly people as it increases joint and muscle movement and flexibility.

NomadJoe Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 There is also a similar woman, but older I have seen 3 times in the last week or so walking between Vichit and Nakitas on the beach road. I found myself wondering what her story was. How did she end up here, and how long her overstay must be. Bangkok Bank should be open any day.

Guest Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 They were together when I saw them. She did not want to be in the picture when I asked for an permission. There are still quite young people. Provided that they make the trip, they'll have way more life experiences compared to the people who stayed at home who keep on saying "I wish I had gone for traveling, but I could not because..."

I've seen her quite a few times and she's either looking for her next crack rock, or all of her oars are not in the water as she never appears to be coherent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

starkey_rich Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 I used to see hundreds of guy's dressed like this wondering around India, probably one of the orange people from the Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh cult or ashram what ever you want to call it. They were usuallty Americans "Trying to find themselves" What ever the ---- that means. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amyb Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 GOM - are you speaking of the dread-locked couple who always walk up and down Saiyuan? Both very fair skinned, with dark hair and often wearing, not bedsheets (lol), but linen or perhaps organic hemp clothes? I met them once; very strange, but completely harmless. They spent a lot of time studying Ayurvedic medicine in Nepal and India, but that's all I know. Initiating a conversation with them is similar to what speaking to a zombie would be like, I imagine. Where's this new cafe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steelepulse Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Kates is on that cut through road nearby Yanui bungalow that ends at Yanui beach, nothing special. Speaking of that road, seems to be a lot happening as I drove through there yesterday and it looks like someone is opening up an outdoor restaurant next to that tailor shop in the middle of nowhere, and across the street very close to flood plain it looks like a bunch of shophouses are going up. Just what that road needs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So don't talk to me about compassion that you know nothing about.. as for Kates.... If you don't like it there then don't go there easy enough .... but to call it a dump is way of the mark.... Why don't you have some compassion,,, For a poor thai girl ex waitress trying to earn a decent living running her own buissness ? Instead of wasting that compassion on soi dogs ....

Guest Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 As I'm non native English speaker, could someone educate me. Isn't this one case where the difference between "you're" and "your" really matters? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
