three weekends out of the next month see alcohol sales prohibited
HUA HIN THAILAND As the Thai election on July 3rd approaches, the eyes of the nation and the world are watching and hoping that it passes off peacefully and fairly. The eyes of the nation’s bar owners and alcohol companies will, though, be drawn to the regulations that call for the closure of bars and the forbidding of the sale of alcohol before and during the election. There is a great deal of confusion and interpretation of these rules, but from the information AWOL has been able to garner, the situation in Hua Hin seems to be this: on Sunday 26th June is a pre-election voting day for those who are unable to vote the following Sunday, and this is supposed to be observed in the same way as the actual election day, with the prohibition of alcohol sales; however this had not been confirmed to any of the bar owners we spoke to ahead of publication. The following weekend in Hua Hin, it has been announced that alcohol sales will be prohibited on both Saturday 2nd and Sunday 3rd July, so bars will have to close on both days. No information has yet been forthcoming on when they can reopen, but Thai law states that it is once the voting has ended. To pile further misery onto the bar owners, Friday 15th and Saturday 16th July are Buddhist holidays (Asana Bucha Day and Wan Khao Pansa, or Buddhist Lent) when alcohol sales will also be prohibited. These should, of course, have been planned for as they occur every year, but coming so soon after the election closures it does not do the alcohol or tourism industries any favours. As always, the determined tourist, expat or Thai voter will be able to find somewhere that will serve them, but this just highlights the odd nature of the election alcohol regulations and the virtually impossible task of enforcing them, designed to prevent vote buying at lavish parties, which instead just prevents foreigners who are ineligible to vote from spending their money here.

Do you wonder why we say certain things, or what they really mean? Each week we will examine a different word or phrase and tell you how it came about. This week it is.. The proof of the pudding To fully test something you need to experience it yourself. ‘The proof of the pudding’ is just shorthand for ‘the proof of the pudding is in the eating’. That longer version makes sense at least, whereas the shortened version really doesn’t mean anything - nor does the often-quoted incorrect variation ‘the proof is in the pudding’. The continued use of that meaningless version is no doubt bolstered by the fact that the correct version isn’t at all easy to understand. The meaning become clear when you know that ‘proof’ here is a verb meaning ‘test’. The more common meaning of ‘proof’ in our day and age is the noun meaning ‘the evidence that demonstrates a truth’ - as in a mathematical or legal proof. The verb form meaning ‘to test’ is less often used these days, although it does survive in several commonly used phrases: ‘the exception that proves the rule’, ‘proof-read’, ‘proving-ground’, etc. When bakers ‘prove’ yeast they are letting it stand in warm water for a time, to determine that it is active. Clearly, the distinction between these two forms of the word was originally quite slight and the proof in a ‘showing to be true’ sense is merely the successful outcome of a test of whether a proposition is correct or not. ‘The proof of the pudding is in the eating’ is a very old proverb. The Oxford Dictionary of Quotations dates it back to the early 14th century, albeit without offering any supporting evidence for that assertion. The phrase is widely attributed to Cervantes in The History of Don Quixote. This appears to be by virtue of an early 18th century translation by Peter Motteux, which has been criticised by later scholars as ‘a loose paraphrase’
and ‘Franco-Cockney’. Crucially the Spanish word for pudding - ‘budín’, doesn’t appear in the original Spanish text. It is doubtful that ‘the proof of the pudding’ was a figurative phrase that was known to Cervantes. The earliest printed example of the proverb that can be found is in William Camden’s Remaines of a Greater Worke Concerning Britaine, 1605: “All the proof of a pudding is in the eating.” It is worth remembering that, as the phrase is quite old, the pudding wouldn’t have been a sticky toffee pudding from the sweet trolley, but a potentially fatal savoury dish. In Camden’s listing of proverbs he also includes “If you eat a pudding at home, the dog may have the skin”, which suggests that the pudding he had in mind was some form of sausage. THE OED describes the mediaeval pudding as ‘the stomach or one of the entrails of a pig, sheep, or other animal, stuffed with a mixture of minced meat, suet, oatmeal, seasoning, etc., and boiled’.
Those of you who have ventured north of the border on Burns Night will recognize this as a fair description of a haggis (above) - “the great chieftain o’ the pudding-race”, as Burns called it in the poem Address to a Haggis, 1786. Mediaeval peasants, faced with a boiled up farmyard massacre, might have thought a taste test to have been a wise choice.

Frozen Crabs & the Blonde Stewardess A lawyer boarded an airplane in New Orleans, with a box of frozen crabs and asked a blonde stewardess to take care of them for him. She took the box and promised to put it in the crew’s refrigerator. He advised her that he was holding her personally responsible for them staying frozen, mentioning in a very haughty manner that he was a Lawyer and proceeded to rant at her about what would happen if she let them thaw out. Needless to say, she was annoyed by his behaviour. Shortly before landing in New York , she used the intercom to announce to the entire cabin, “Would the lawyer who gave me the crabs in New Orleans , please raise your hand?” Not one hand went up, so she took them home and ate them. Two lessons here: 1. Lawyers aren’t as smart as they think they are. 2. Blondes aren’t as dumb as most folk think.

John The manager of a large office noticed one of his department heads had hired a new man, so the boss called him into his office for a little orientation speech. “What is your name?” he asked. “John,” the new guy replied. The manager scowled, “Look, I don’t know what kind of place you worked at before, but I don’t call anyone by their first name. It breeds familiarity and that leads to a breakdown in authority. I refer to my employees by their last names only - Smith, Jones, Baker - that’s all. I am to be referred to only as Mr. Robertson. Now that we got that straight, what is your last name?” The new guy sighed and said, “Darling. John Darling.” “Okay, John, the next thing I want to tell you is...” benefits of exercise Walking can add minutes to your life. This enables you at 85 years old to spend an additional 5 months in a nursing home at $7000 per month. My grandpa started walking five miles a day when he was 60. Now he’s 97 years old and we don’t know where he is. I like long walks, especially when they are taken by people who annoy me. The only reason I would take up walking is so that I could hear heavy breathing again. I have to walk early in the morning, before my brain figures out what I’m doing... I joined a health club last year, spent about 400 bucks. Haven’t lost a pound. Apparently you have to go there. Every time I hear the dirty word exercise, I wash my mouth out with chocolate. If you are going to try cross-country skiing, start with a small country.

Real del Monte, mexico Mexican town shuns burritos and nachos for Cornish pasties A tiny town in Mexico – the country famous for burritos and nachos – has been found to be crazy for... Cornish pasties. The town is filled with ‘paste’ takeaways instead of traditional tortilla shops – and locals even celebrate an annual Cornish Pasty Festival. The Mexican mining settlement of Real del Monte adopted the snack in 1824 when Cornishmen arrived to make their fortune digging for silver. Local wives copied the English by sending their loved-ones off to the mine with a pasty each day as they were easy to carry and quick to eat. The tradition has remained ever since. The Mexicans have added their own

twist by adding sausage and beans or pineapple and tuna. Ciro Peralta Gonzalez, a pasty shop owner, visited Cornwall to find the secret to the perfect pasty. And Brigette Glasworthy Estavillo, of the Cornish Mexican Cultural Society, has arranged for an English party to visit the country for this year’s Cornish Pasty Festival in October. Marsimek La, india Highest ever pizza delivery set for 18,000ft mountain pass If you think your fast food deliveries take an age to arrive, you should try living at the top of a mountain in the Himalayas. Margheritas and meat feasts may soon be on the menu at a peak in Kashmir, however – if Britain’s ‘daftest motoring club’
can break the world record for the highest ever pizza delivery. Six members of the Extreme Trifle group will attempt to climb more than 5,400m (18,000ft) on their 40-year-old Royal Enfield motorcycles, then serve up a surprise meal to the Indian army at Marsimek La, in the world’s highest mountain pass. The club’s Paul Osborne said: ‘The first trip was from London to Siberia, except we fell a bit short – about 10,000 miles short – after we got arrested and had our bikes confiscated for entering Transnistria illegally.’ Another mission across the Sahara was abandoned when one rider suffered heat exhaustion. The next trip begins in Manali, India, on July 10.

budweiser the F.A. taste london, england After announcing that Budweiser will sponsor the FA Cup as of next year, the Football Association has assured supporters that they will never be exposed to a single drop of the stuff. The initial announcement filled fans with the fear that Budweiser would be the only low-quality alcoholic beverage available at matches during next year’s competition, causing angry scenes which forced the governing body to react by calling an emergency press conference. “I think everyone needs to take a deep breath and calm down,” FA chairman David Bernstein told the conference. “Nobody will be drinking Budweiser.” “We would never allow this vile American lager pass the lips of

Man City’s Nigel de Jong looks delighted to have dodged the Budweiser bullet when winning the FA Cup this May

The FA chairman moved to further allay those anxieties by insisting that the sponsor’s product will only be put to more practical and industrial uses, including watering the pitch and general cleaning purposes. “It’s not something we wanted to do but they were offering so much money that we just couldn’t refuse,” Bernstein continued, “which unfortunately means that the stuff will be in the cisterns and it will also be running all through the drains.” “So if you happen to smell anything odd in the toilets – don’t blame your friends, blame the Budweiser.”
