big bikes and pedal bikes hit town
hua hin, THAILAND Two events for the two wheeled fraternity take place next weekend, although with quite different participants. First is the ninth annual Hua Hin Bike Week which takes place on Friday 6th and Saturday 7th December at a new venue from previous years, Hua Hin School, followed by the Hua Hin Cycling Classic on Saturday 7th and Sunday 8th December. Both events are in honour of His Majesty the King. Hua Hin Bike Week always attracts thousands of people and hundreds of bikes of all shapes and sizes, and the rumble of big bike engines will be an increasingly familiar sound as the event approaches, with bikers already begiining to arrive. AWOL understands that the format will be similar to previous events, with live music, food and drink stalls, bike memorobilia and accessories, competitions and most importantly, donations to charity and a show of appreciation for the local police. The bicycle events are the Queen’s Cup Tour of Hua Hin on the 7th and the Kings Cup Hua Hin Mountain Classic on the 8th, with the latter event beginning at the Hua Hin Shooting Club in Borfai, where participants can register in one of three categories from 7am to 10:30am on the day with fees between 250 and 350 baht. The categories are A - 42km, B - 28km (both Male by age and Women Open), and C - 10km (Male 10yrs and under, Male 11-15yrs, Female 15yrs and under).

siamese
stories going awol By Roger Norwood I was having a discussion with a few people the other night, including the editor of AWOL, about possible changes or new sections that could be included in the paper. One suggestion that was raised was a letters page, to which the editor responded that there had been one before, but not enough people sent in contributions to fill it every week. He did concede, however, that this was in the relatively early days of the paper, and that it might be worth another try. Essentially I am using my column this week to ask the readers what you think - what changes would you like to see, what bits do you like and what are you not so keen on? To give

you an idea of some of the things under consideration, also discussed were some kind of motoring section, a ‘Meet the Locals’ type article, restaurant reviews and even a male equivalent to our page 3! (Girls, I need your input!) The editor did stress however that unless there was advertising to pay for the extra pages to hold new content, then some existing content would have to make way for it. So this also begs the question - what would you cut from the paper if you had the choice? Clearly new content will only be added if there is a belief that it is what readers (and advertisers) would like, but also if regular content is available to fill the space
every week. Long time readers will have seen some sections appear and then disappear, and apparently this is mostly due to the person who was writing the pieces not continuing, either because they chose not to, or because they had run out of things to write. So this is your chance to suggest your ideas as to what you would like to see in this paper - of course there are no guarantees that it will come to fruition but please tell us what you think. Send your thoughts by email to submissions@awolonline.net, by posting on the AWOL Forum, or in writing please drop them into the All Nations Guesthouse on Dechanuchit Road.

A section for all you budding etymologists where each week the origin of a word or phrase is investigated. This week it is..... Forewarned is forearmed Advance warning provides an advantage. Farmer in 1831. This was a republishing of the text Many idioms that have no obvious source are often of various letters which were written in the 1680s. It referred to, for no good reason, as ‘old proverbs’. includes ‘A letter from Capt. Francis Hooke, advising of ‘Forewarned is forearmed’ has a genuine claim to be danger from the Indians’, 1685, which contains another called such, as it dates from at least the end of the example of the early form of the proverb: 16th century, and could be much earlier. The Latin “A word to the wise is enough. The old proverb is, saying ‘praemonitus, praemunitus’ loosely translates forewarned, forearmed.” as ‘forewarned is forearmed’. There’s no evidence to The description of the proverb as ‘old’ at that date does show that the English proverb is merely a translation raise the possibility of the 1592 citation not being the of the Latin though. The two sayings could easily have earliest. originated independently. ’Forewarned, forearmed’ transformed into the The meaning of the proverb is quite straightforward and ‘forewarned is forearmed’ version we know now during literal - so long as it is understood that forearm is here the 18th century. Abraham Tucker used that form of the the archaic verb meaning ‘to arm in advance’, rather than proverb in The Light of Nature Pursued, 1768: the noun forearm, that is, the part of the arm between “Knowing that forewarned is forearmed.” the elbow and wrist. The saying is so straightforward Tucker was something of a specialist on the subject in fact that it was originally simply ‘forewarned, just five years before, he had published a treatise titled forearmed’. It is found in that form in Robert Greene’s Freewill, Foreknowledge, and Fate. A Notable Discovery of Coosnage (a.k.a. The Art of Conny-catching), 1592: Is there an English phrase or saying that you would “forewarned, forearmed: burnt children dread the fire.” like to know more about?

After Dinner Speaker A dinner speaker was in such a hurry to get to his engagement that when he arrived and sat down at the head table, he suddenly realized that he had forgotten his false teeth. Turning to the man next to him he said, ‘I forgot my teeth.’ The man said, ‘No problem.’ He reached into his pocket and pulled out a pair of false teeth. ‘Try these,’ he said. The speaker tried them. ‘Too loose’, he said. The man then said, ‘I have another pair - try these.’ The speaker tried them and responded, ‘Too tight.’ The man was not taken back at all. He then said, ‘I have one more pair. Try them.’ The speaker said, ‘They fit perfectly.’ With that he ate his meal and gave his speech. After the dinner meeting was over, the speaker went over to thank the man who had helped him. ‘I want to thank you for coming to my aid. Where is your office? I’ve been looking for a good dentist.’ The man replied, ‘I’m not a dentist. I’m an undertaker.’ Poor david... David Cameron goes on a state visit to Israel. While he is on a tour of Jerusalem he suffers a heart attack and passes away. The undertaker tells the British diplomats accompanying him, ‘You can have him shipped home for £5,000,000, or you can bury him here in the Holy Land for just £100.’ The British diplomats go into a corner and discuss this for a minute. They come back to the undertaker and tell him they want Gordon shipped home. The undertaker is puzzled and asks, ‘Why would you spend £5,000,000 to ship him home, when it would be wonderful to be buried here and you would spend only £100? With the money you save, you could help pay back some of the deficit, help pay for the Olympic Games or help the elderly.’

A new route has just been added to China Air’s flights from Beijing to Tel Aviv, with the first plane’s Captain an Israeli and the First Officer is Chinese. It’s the first time they’ve flown together and it’s obvious by the silence, that they’re not getting along. After thirty minutes, the Jewish Captain mutters: “I don’t like Chinese.” The First Officer replies: “Oaaah, you no like Chinese? why?” “You people bombed Pearl Harbor. That’s why I don’t like Chinese.” “Nooo, nooo, Chinese not bomb Peahl Hahbah. That Japanese, not Chinese.” “Chinese, Japanese, Vietnamese... it doesn’t matter, you’re all the same.” Another thirty minutes of silence. Then the First Officer says: “I not like Jews.” “Why not? Why don’t you like Jews?” “Jews sink Titanic.” “The Jews didn’t sink the Titanic. It was an iceberg.” “Iceberg, Goldberg, Rosenberg, Spielberg, no mattah ... alla same.” 13

Mags Meanderings: From Som Tam To Mushy Peas
a word to the wise How well do you cope with the Thai language? Do you know 1,000 words of Thai? I’m not sure that my ability to count up to 9,999 in Thai would qualify, but if you sit and make a list many of you might be surprised by how many words you do know, and use regularly without thinking twice. Of course it is easier to pick up a foreign language while living in that country and hearing it spoken on a daily basis. It is also a courtesy - especially in Thailand where people appreciate you trying to learn - and for those living in more rural areas it can be a necessity. But we Brits are not generally known either for our languages skills or for feeling the need to learn them, so in September the ‘1,000 Words Campaign’ was launched. A spokesperson for the British Council, a major player in the campaign, said that people in the UK suffer from a reputation of being lazy linguists, and that speaking another language is crucial to understanding another culture. Many an expat may disagree with the second part of that statement, having given up trying to understand their Thai partner at all, but we surely can’t deny the first part of it - we are lazy linguists because we expect everyone else in the world to speak English. Probably as a result of that expectation we also have a tendency to neglect the teaching of foreign languages in our schools, which hasn’t helped at all. Back in the mists of time I was taught 3 languages from the age of 11 in High School, but had to give them up after two years in order to change to an arts and science based syllabus. But even those two years provided a small foundation on which to build. Especially Latin, which as a ‘dead’ language later fell out of favour in mainstream schools. The sad fact is that, as many of our European and Scandinavian counterparts have shown, teaching their children English from a much younger age can produce adults who often possess better grammatical English skills than us native speakers. Not only have many of us in the UK lost out on the chance to absorb foreign languages while our young brains were like sponges, we are now faced with inexplicable changes to our mother tongue. ‘Text speak’ abbreviations find their way into the written word, while one of the most annoying misuses of English involves one of our smallest words - ‘of’ - now commonly used instead of ‘have’, as in ‘I should of....’ It is also added superfluously to ‘off’, as in ‘I got off of....’ producing the potential for a sentence which includes the phrase ‘I should of got off of that bus.....’ Meanwhile our American cousins go the other way, often not bothering to include ‘of’, ‘to’, or ‘and’ at all, as in ‘I’ll go take a look’ or ‘he went out
the door’. At the other end of the literary scale we are faced with overly pretentious words which sound, and sometimes do appear, to be made up. Certain authors love to use words like ‘potentiality’ and ‘certitude’, while ‘aphoristically’ recently had me searching in vain through the Oxford Concise. Government spokespeople aren’t immune to the temptation to elaborate either. Speaking after a court ruling on mandatory work programmes in the UK one said that the government would have to reconsider ‘mandation’. They certainly should. So the next time you hear a Thai friend say ‘I take you go’ don’t be too hard on them. English isn’t an easy language to learn. In fact some of us are still trying to come to terms with it.

Eat in or Takeaway 081 455 5298 Capricorn Dec 22 - Jan 19 You will have a vision of peace, transcendent love, and infinite compassion, only to find it was all a dream. Also, your pillow is gone. Aquarius Jan 20 – Feb 18 Don’t take it personally: Someone had to be the cutoff point for who does and doesn’t get on the Emergency Earth-Escape Rocket. Pisces Feb 19 – Mar 20 Alarming developments this week mean that withholding sex will no longer be one of your more effective threats. Aries Mar 21 – Apr 20 You’ll be thrilled all the way down to your toenails this week when electrodes are planted in the appropriate pleasure centers of your brain.
Taurus Apr 21 – May 21 After the events of next Sunday, for the rest of your life, people will stop you on the street and ask you to autograph packages of pork chops. Gemini May 22 – June 21 Millions will be rescued this week when the Red Cross deploys thousands of desperately needed words to the site of an unspeakable tragedy. Cancer Jun 22 – Jul 22 You must admit that you’re sleeping better than ever, but it’s kind of unpleasant to wake up every morning with a blowgun dart in the back of your neck. Leo Jul 23 – Aug 22 More than anything, you want to mold and shape young minds. Unfortunately, most commercially available Jell-O molds are unsuitable for this purpose.
Virgo Aug 23 – Sep 22 Your new pheromone-based scent will make you irresistible to women, who will devour you, bones, hair, and all. Libra Sep 23 – Oct 23 Well, the stars tried, but somehow, you’ve been left more or less in control of your own destiny this week. Scorpio Oct 24 – Nov 21 For centuries, great thinkers have contemplated the purpose of life. It’s best to just relax and assume they’ve figured it out. Sagittarius Nov 22 – Dec 21 If you’ve ever regretted not pursuing a career in bullfighting, this week may bring an accidental chance to start over.

a sledge too far England collapse a relief, say fans
brisbane, australia BEING good at cricket just felt dirty and sordid, England fans said this week. After England finished the first day of the first Ashes Test match with Australia on 273-8, fans were seen skulking in downtown Brisbane self-consciously celebrating in the dimly-lit bars of the infamous Sports Pub district. England fan Wayne Hayes said: “There was a card in a phone booth offering ‘relaxing cricket boasting’ and before I knew it I was screaming ‘The finest team the world has ever SEEN’ with a bunch of men whose names I didn’t even know. “The next morning all I could think about was what I was going to tell my wife when I got home. What if a photo of me smiling and looking confident got back to her? “But the remaining three day’s performance has proven what I knew in my heart all along – I’m a misery man and proud of it.”

In Australia, where being good at sport has been legal since 1969, revelling in victory is considered socially acceptable and many wellknown Australians have been photographed openly enjoying watching cricket in public. Hayes said: “After my experimentation the
other night I know this makes me a hypocrite but if any of my kids came home one day and said they’d fallen for Barcelona I’d disown them.”
