Just a quick note as we are off for Bangers today for a couple of days.
Too funny to pass up though.
In the middle of taking care of the gardens, packing etc. etc. the Ms. phone goes off. Dad wants some noodles. huh?
I've mentioned before that Dad is just a little weird, I think either he is going senile or is in early alzeimers. In a year and a half he has NEVER looked me in the eye. (shy is the excuse.) Even during the sinsod deally he never really looked at me.. too funny.... he did want to know if I showered in hot water though... Seems that if you shower in hot water he thinks your 'strong'... go figure. That's another story though, Anyway back to the phone call.
Dad is about 6 ft. and must weigh about 45 Kg. Obviously been a hard worker all his life. His eating habits are non existant. He loves the canned lyche stuff and basically survives on it as far as I can tell.
When he wants real food it is a specifc thing he wants to eat. This morning is was lad na, (sp? as some folks take the piss out of me for my Thai transliterations), not just any lad na but the Ms' version. So in the middle of the morning's goings on Ms heads for the market in Makham and is currently at Dad's making his breakky.
Anytime he wants to eat real food he is accomodated, basically so he doesn't just fade away. Mom is a pretty good cook in her own right but the Ms beats them all. She is always called upon for any occasion in the family for her cullinary expertise.
This 'call and order' thing doesn't happen often but I get a kick of her willingness to drop whatever she is doing and compling with the request. Family is important you know?
I wonder what happened while we/she were living in Bangers.
Just a part of "living in the Moo Ban" I guess. Gotta love it.
