laolover88 Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lupatria Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 (edited) 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".

jpduggan Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 how many tourists in a 'flock'? If you read it again it uses the word '' flocked to see'' not ''came in flocks to see'' A big difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

willyumiii Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 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. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fgmr Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 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. And "Happy New Year" all 12 months. One hopes Songkran isn't ever extended for the same period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soihok Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
