Where Are All The Beautiful Gals?

Wow! A bit of a time since the last post. I can assure you that women are to blame. Those stories can unfold another time. Currently sitting on the banks of the river Pai in way North Thailand. Very dry up here and super smoky too - the locals still haven't given up the old slash and burn. If perhaps they would burn then take a slash - that would help put out the damned fires...

Anyway I digress. Back on topic and I can't help but noticing that there are a real lot of gals around this neck of the woods (actually not too many woods as they seem hell bent on chopping or burning them all down but I digress again) that at 50 metres bear an uncanny resemblance to a wild bush pig and at 10 metres it doesn't get much better.

Where are all those enchanting, tall, winsome Thai lasses in bathing wrap languidly combing their long, black tresses by the banks of the river Pai?

I can tell you where. They are all on assignment in Bangkok where there mission is to SUCK DRY unsuspecting tourists and the richer locals in order to sustain the economy of remote villages like dusty, dry Pai. Whilst the ugly ones are busy ploughing the sweet potato furrows the cute gals are busy getting their furrows ploughed. Country cuties are the true cash crop for these regions.

The local heavy-weights that I have spotted are scrubbing the floors, tending the shops, feeding the chooks and looking after the babies that their sexy sisters on assignment occasionally inadvertently pop out when sufficient precautions haven't been taken.

I had a good bike ride today. But the lack of eye-candy up this way is dragging me down. Back to Bangkok tomorrow!
