The atlas-geography thing is another matter; tried getting a decent Issarn map around here for ages...have Itchycock, north, south Thailand, but Issarn in Buriram - no chance. All shops enquired in thoguht I was strange for asking.

The weird thing is, they have basketball, tennis, football, ping pong, table tennis, golf, virtually every game, but have you EVER seen cricket?

I know the Thais have a few sports not recognised in the west, but why the hell is there virtually no coverage of cricket here?

Perhaps they don't consider a bunch of guys standing in a field lobbing balls at sticks for days at end a sport

...more of a mental condition, IMHO.....
