The signs should probably be renamed to "Whatever."
Drivers are leaving the road through the entrance and entering through the exits.
Thailand traffic rules: WHATEVER works for you.
Expected a big crowd at Robinsons. The parking lot was quite full.
It was one pm. There was a steady stream of uniformed students heading for the main doors of the mall. You know they didn't come to do shopping. They were there to enjoy the airconditioned comfort of the mall.
In fact the only people I saw with shopping bags were the foreigners with their wives (Ahem spotted a few pretend wives ).
Did some shopping at Robinsons. Somewhat felt right at home.
If I venture on my neighborhood streets I frequently have to ward off packs of dogs.
No difference at Robinsons, except here it's groups of salesclerks you have to scurry away.
Did purchase a few items at Robinsons. For each item rung up, a different salesclerk scanned his/her ID number. Bought seven items, seven sales clerks received sales credit.
Considered buying some underwear. 400 baht for a white t-shirt seemed a bit too pricey.
Then I looked at some briefs. The young lady in charge of the briefs was hungry for a sale.
She repeatedly followed me to show me another pair of briefs.
After being followed and shown half a dozen briefs, I abandoned the clothing department in a hurry. Things just got a bit too KINKY.
Had to switch from basket to cart at Top's, my purchases there piled up quickly.
If you plan on shopping there with some frequency, I recommend getting a store card. I received a 300 baht refund and a free laundry basket.
I'll be eating Brussel sprouts for the first time in ten years.

You're probably right tasteless and rude, but its a fact of life.
Most Thai wives married to foreigners are very fine ladies. Many are dear friends.
The ahem simply acknowledges my meeting of a couple "pretend wives," who I had not seen in some time.
