Aren't roses the traditional valentines day flower and chrysanthemums your traditional mothers day flower?

It's a gaggle of tourists and a flock when they take to the air.

Valentine's Day is February 14th. It is not a three day 'celebration'.

Valentine's Day is February 14th. It is not a three day 'celebration'.

Maybe it is in Thailand, they keep the Xmas decorations up for 6 months.

Google "gaggle" and get a giggle.

I was wondering the same.

[upena]

I prefer bustling tourists over the flocking ones

Same same but different.

Certainly not a 'charm' of Chinese goldfinches...and Parliament of Fowls to be found across the earth. I prefer a parliament of Owls. In Thai a flock means a traffic jam.

Who cares,they are all flowers,,its the thought that counts,,

And next month 1 million Chinese tourist are expected to listen to the sound of growing parsley.

I wouldn't be surprised if they grow something else over there and smoke it.

According to the latest statistics it should read: "Tourists flee 'cause they've seen enough".

If you read it again it uses the word '' flocked to see'' not ''came in flocks to see'' A big difference.

It is good that Korat finally found something for tourist to come and see...

I am a plant nut..a horticulturist and arborists.

This is great!

Mums are great plants that naturally bloom in October in most climates

Who cares about the holiday?

Some never miss an opportunity to be cynical and show what jerks they are here on TV!

Good job guys.

I'm going.

Maybe it is in Thailand, they keep the Xmas decorations up for 6 months.

And "Happy New Year" all 12 months. One hopes Songkran isn't ever extended for the same period.

When do they "flock" off?

[soihok]

A chuckle of tourists?

I guess the collective noun for Tourists would depend on where they originate from.

India = A Haggle (could also be a Hassle) of tourists

China = A Wretch of tourists

UK = A Belch of tourists

Germany = A Gurn of Tourists
