Paangjang Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 (edited) Swimming fully clothed? Either that or one of those enslaved fisherman perhaps. End of the month, paycheck time. Or not as it were... Edited January 1, 2014 by Paangjang 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FireMedic Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Last night in Karon, I saw about a thousand people fully clothed in the water....peeing, crapping, making out, drinking, and partying....same was probably true in Patong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imkah Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 It is tempting to do a probe-joke or two, but as we do not know what happened to the unfortunate man I will stick with R.I.P. and hopefully be back with a vengeance at a more suitable occasion. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loles Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 (edited) Many Asian people go to swim full clothed but I'm pretty sure this man was enough died when was thrown to the sea ... Edited January 1, 2014 by Loles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or not as it were... You must be a newbe.Full clothed,yes. Swimming fully clothed is not uncommon even in England. I've seen photos of fully suited gentlemen with ties adorned and trousers rolled up to the knees taking a dip, as it were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IrishIvan Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 A lot of fully clothed guys wash up on beaches with their flys undone. Yachties going for a pee on the back deck and then falling over the side Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
