    Shrinking Clothes

    I'm wearing only shirts from now on - T-Shirts and other such tops just shrink all the time.

    What is this country coming to.

    That's what I keep on saying to myself.

    Everyone else says it's because I'm getting fatter.

    Mine just fall apart or have strange stuff spilled over them that I can't remember - it's trousers and belts that shrink.

    Maybe whoever will pick me up for the Korat meet would be so kind as to collect Ant's T-shirts for me on the way here?
    Frankie?

    Sorry, I meant Scamps can have them. You don't want them, it'd be like wearing a tent.

    ^ I'm wearing a dark-green button-down Timberline with two inside pockets.

    I'm not sure what size it is, but the label says "four-man."

    That means either you are really rather, errm, 'rotund' or that you purchased it at the 2nd-2nd-Hand shop.

    So which is it; are you a fatty or a spendthrift?

    Loose button shirts are more comfy anyway.
    I'm amazed to see falangs wearing crew neck T's during the hot months here.
    They prolly wear synthetic jocks too.

    Make sure you buy shirts long enough to cover your modesty Scampy or buy synthetic jocks also as sabang suggests.

    Not really, B20,000 buys a fair bit of food. Ok so that's not many nights out at restaurants but then again with two infants we aren't having those anyways.

    too right,

    one thing I love about dining out in Thailand, they have so many staff hanging around doing nothing, they suddenly jump to attention because they all want to hold the luk kreung, and they usually do so for the entire evening

    I was offered $60,000 for my son when he was a baby by a Singaporean couple.

    Now he is 11 and I wish I had taken them up on the offer.

    Sorry thats got nothing to do with shrinking clothes. I have a problem with short sleeve shirts that shrink just enough to make the arms of the shirt too short.
