Texting in the bag

Waterproofing is the word of the day, for the next three days in Thailand for all electronic devices. This mobile phone case is ideal. You don't need to take the phone out of the case to make a call. The clear plastic even lets you take clear pictures as long as there are no waterdrops in front of the lens. If you don't have 'protection' for your mobile and it does get wet.  For heavens sake don't turn it on to see if it's still functioning. Take off the cover, remove the battery, use paper towels to remove most of the water then place it into a bag of uncooked rice for two to three days

First of all, football in 100 plus degree temperatures has to be hardcore.
If you are a celsius person, over 40.
As a fan I was wearing an improvised icepack on my head.  A wet towel with ice cubes.

As for the game, lets call it a scrimmage, an informal game.
Only half of the Y.FC team showed. A Sakon FC player acted as goalie for the first half.
Referees for the game were Sakon FC players.

Y.FC players (youth under 19 years of age) gave Sakon Nakhon FC a run for their money (so to say). The Sakon FC coach was not very happy.  Didn't understand what he was saying, but he sure did not sound pleased.

Normally I'm a Sakon FC fan, this game is an exception I'm a sponsor. I supply water, ice, energy drinks and jerseys for "O" Osaka team.

A bit off topic, but I love The thai nickname system.  I know an A, an O, an M, a few Zee's, and then there's a few Banks, Oley, Funny girl.  It's a lot easier than remembering British Bob, English Tony, Australian Tony, etc.




The game was fun, but even better was the celebration at my house
