take the plunge swimming - a valuable life lesson

hua hin, THAILAND A little publicised but very important fact is that seven children die every day in Thailand from drowning. Only last month a terrible tragedy in Cha Am claimed the lives of three teenagers in this manner. Learning to swim should be a priority for all children and adults to lessen the chance of this happening, and particularly in coastal resorts like Hua Hin and Cha Am, and with so many swimming pools around. Many parents will try (and succeed) in teaching thier children the basics, but often there is a need for professional help from an internationally accredited Swimming Teacher, and we are lucky enough to have one in the shape of Matt at the Swim Hua Hin Swimming School. They offer swimming classes to suit all ages - programs based on progressive teaching methods for babies, toddlers, children and adults that start from only 200 baht per lesson (groups of up to five) or more for individual lessons. Recently however, the school has had a problem in that the pool they were renting to hold their classes is no longer available, and they are appealing to the readers of AWOL to help them find a new venue. If you have or know of a conveniently sited pool, preferably somewhere between sois 6 and 108 and the nearer the centre the better, and ideally rectangular between 15 and 25 metres long, with depths ranging from 1 to 1.8 metres, and which would be free every day for between two to four hours, Matt would like to talk to you about a rental agreement for him to be able to continue the valuable service he provides. You can contact Matt for more information on his lessons or to offer a possible venue by either calling 082 591 1250 or 086 530 7955, by emailing swimhuahin@gmail.com or through the website swimhuahin.com.

weird NEWS norway Fisherman finds large red dildo in cod he has just caught A fisherman was baffled after he found a massive dildo inside a cod he had just caught. Bjoern Frilund, 64, was pleased to have reeled in the six kilogram fish while on a boat near Eidsbygda, in Norway. But his happiness soon turned to dread when he inspected the cod further and saw it contained a large red vibrator. ‘I was astonished. I had never seen anything like this before,’ he told The Local. ‘We have a kind of multicoloured octopus in Norway, maybe the cod thought this was one of these and ate it.’ china Why you should never insert a skipping rope in your urethra for sexual pleasure (if it wasn’t already obvious) If inserting a skipping rope in your urethra for sexual pleasure sounds like a bad idea, that’s because it is. A middle-aged man in China came a cropper when he used the 1m long and 4.4mm thick green rope as a bizarre sex toy, according to newspaper reports. He was forced to go to the doctors with his tail between his legs after the rope became stuck and it became painful to urinate, the Sanxia Business Daily reports. The man, in his 40s, was reportedly unable to pull out the rope, which had four

knots and dangled 10cm out of his urethral opening. He underwent emergency surgery to have the it removed from his bladder and urethra, according to the report later picked up by the Shanghai Daily. A doctor, named as Dr Dong by the Sanxia Business Daily, said the knots made the surgery more complicated and that forcefully pulling it out would have led to serious bleeding and a possible infection. Another dumbfounded doctor at the hospital said that the man’s bizarre actions were ‘ridiculous’. italy Italian man jailed for being ‘too good at sex’ An Italian man named Romeo has reportedly been jailed after his noisy lovemaking kept his neighbours awake at night. Romeo Artemio Lori was given a six month jail sentence after at least 12 neighbours complained about his girlfriend’s loud moaning, the Mirror reports. The 42-year-old told a judge he was being punished for ‘being too good at sex’, according to the report. Neighbours claimed that Romeo ‘terrorised’ them with his sex sessions which could go on for more than an hour in Vigodarzere, Padua. Mr Lori plans to appeal the sentence after a judge ruled that his neighbour’s demands were ‘reasonable’.

SERVED UP BY...

A section for all you budding etymologists where each week the origin of a word or phrase is investigated. This week it is.....A turn up for the books An unexpected piece of good fortune. Since the 1820s or so, the term ‘turn-up’ has been used to mean ‘a surprise; an example of good fortune’. The reference was to cards or dice, which are ‘turned up’ by chance. Specifically, the ‘turn up’ was referred to in the game of cribbage. ‘Turn up’ was defined by John Camden Hotten in 1859, in A Dictionary of Modern Slang, Cant and Vulgar Words: Turn up: An unexpected slice of luck. That’s straightforward enough, but why would a turn up be ‘for the books’? Books can be cooked, one can go by them and you can be in someone’s bad books, but why would you turn up for them? The phrase was originally ‘a turn up for the book’. At 18th and 19th century English race meetings when bets were placed the punter’s name and wager were written down in a notebook. Not unreasonably, this process was called ‘making a book’. If a race was won by a horse that the ‘bookmaker’ had no record of in his book, he had a ‘turn up’ and kept all the wagered money. Camden Hotten was good enough to come to our aid again with his extended definition of ‘turn up’: Among sporting men bookmakers are said to have a turn up when an unbacked horse wins. So, ‘a turn up for the book’ translates as a stroke of good luck for the bookmakers. The earliest example found of the expression in print is from a report, in the Leeds Intelligencer newspaper, of the success of a horse called Blackdown at the Doncaster races in August 1863: A rare turn-up for the book-makers, the majority of whom had never written Blackdown’s name in their books. A bonus related origin this week is Come up trumps To complete something well or successfully, especially in circumstances in which it isn’t expected. ‘Come up trumps’ is a variant of the older phrase ‘turn

up trumps’, which has been in use since the early 17th century. The word trump in this context is a corruption of triumph, which was the name of a card game, similar to whist, that was played in the 17th century. The preacher Hugh Latimer referred to it in his 1st Sermon on the Card, 1529: “The game that wee wyll playe at, shall bee called the triumphe... Lette therefore euery Christian manne and woman playe at these cardes.” Encouraging card playing is hardly Christian orthodoxy these days, nor was it in 1529, but then Latimer was far from orthodox in his religious views - which resulted in him being burned at the stake. Shakespeare used card playing imagery when alluding to the game in Anthony and Cleopatra, 1606. He says that “the queen, [Cleopatra] whose heart I thought I had” ... “now lost, she has pack’d cards with Caesar and false-play’d my glory unto an enemy’s triumph.” In triumph, as in whist, the trump suit was selected at random by the ‘cutting’ of the deck. Trump cards temporarily outranked other cards. Selecting the right suit to match one’s hand was an advantage in the game and so turning up trumps became synonymous with success. It was, and still is, bad form to cut the deck without first shuffling the cards. Robert Burton, in his The anatomy of melancholy, 1621, was outraged that: “They turned up trumpe, before the Cards were shuffled.” By the 18th century turn up trumps had begun to be used in its figurative sense, that is, with no direct reference to card playing. It is recorded that way in Grose’s Dictionary of the Vulgar Tongue, 1785: “Something may turn up trumps, something lucky may happen.” Incidentally, Shakespeare was also the first to refer to a pack of cards as a deck - in Henry VI, Part III, 1592: “But whiles he thought to steale the single Ten, The King was slyly finger’d from the Deck.”

Eat in or Takeaway 081 455 5298 Capricorn Dec 22 - Jan 19 Love magick is strong in Taurus this week, leading those lucky enough to be born under that sign far, far away from you. Aquarius Jan 20 – Feb 18 Your death will be painful, but it will give a notorious femme fatale a chance to say “I’m afraid I’ve always had a rather…sharp tongue.” Pisces Feb 19 – Mar 20 Your life will soon lose all direction, which considering how it has been going, should come as a vast relief. Aries Mar 21 – Apr 20 Venus is in retrograde in your sign this week, which you’d think would mean problems in your love life but actually indicate imminent botulism. Interesting, isn’t it?

Taurus Apr 21 – May 21 Avoid making decisions based on ambiguous advice from questionable sources this week, even if she was in labour with you for 38 hours. Gemini May 22 – June 21 Change will come to your neighbourhood when you annoy an air traffic controller who knows your home address the same day his ex boards a 747 to Maui. Cancer Jun 22 – Jul 22 You’ve never been the sort of person who lets all kinds of supposed “signs” tell you how you should drive your car. Leo Jul 23 – Aug 22 You’re starting to think that maybe the funny nose and glasses won’t actually be enough to hide you when Jesus returns in all his glory.

Virgo Aug 23 – Sep 22 Sometimes it feels as if your life’s long, empty hours are all beginning to blur together, but take heart. There really aren’t very many left. Libra Sep 23 – Oct 23 Although the doctors want to do all they can to help ease your recovery, they cannot legally allow you to make a cool chair out of your severed limbs. Scorpio Oct 24 – Nov 21 Scorpio is a water sign, with all that implies, but this week it will be much more important for you to pay attention to Fire Exit signs. Sagittarius Nov 22 – Dec 21 You’ll continue to be baffled by people who expect you to be their friend and call them, just because you have previously said the words “We’re friends” and “I’ll call you.”

near death A 65 year old woman had a heart attack and was taken to the hospital. While on the operating table she had a near death experience.. Seeing God she asked “Is my time up?” God said, “No, you have another 33 years, 2 months and 8 days to live.” Upon recovery, the woman decided to stay in the hospital and have a face-lift, liposuction, breast implants and a tummy tuck. She even had someone come in and change her hair colour and brighten her teeth! Since she had so much more time to live, she figured she might as well make the most of it. After her last operation, she was released from the hospital. While crossing the street on her way home, she was killed by an ambulance. Arriving in front of God, she demanded, “I thought you said I had another 33 years? Why didn’t you pull me from out of the path of the ambulance?” God replied: “ I didn’t recognize you.”

Mags Meanderings: From Som Tam To Mushy Peas

hot(mail) under the collar This weeks’ THAB has to be fairly brief, and rattled off in double quick time. The reason being my problems with cyberspace. For once I can’t even blame my IT woes on Hulls’ own independent telephone company, Kingston Communications, because I freed myself from their local landline and broadband monopoly some time ago when 3G became a viable and cheaper option. No, the problems are partly of my own making. Because from day one in my e mailing history I have resolutely stuck with one e mail provider. There have been occasional half hearted forays into alternative addresses of course, but none lasted. Hotmail had become so familiar and easy to navigate there seemed little point in maintaining two separate e mail accounts. Many of you will now be nodding sagely. You have been wise enough to double up e mail accounts as a safeguard. And now that mine is floating around in cyberspace, together with its’ contact list and personal files, I can see why! But as our use of the internet has developed over the last decade or so, the scope of what we can actually do with it has also increased. There is often talk amongst expats and ex expats, about what they miss from the home country, or what they miss about Thailand, depending on where they are looking at things from. These discussions also extend to the most noticeable changes when they do return home, and over recent years one of the most significant changes has to be our dependance on the internet for everyday tasks. Even in Hull we shop, bank, sell and complete surveys online. We read newspapers and place advertisements and announcements in them online. We can also order our prescriptions and sign petitions online, all the time of course giving out our e mail addresses. From 2021 we will even be completing the UK census online.

Most significantly we are constantly under pressure from our utility suppliers to ‘go paperless’, with financial incentives to receive our bills online. And so it is that my gas, electricity, internet and mobile phone accounts have now been consigned to cyberspace, together with my TV licence! Lesson learned - don’t put all your eggs in one basket. And this weeks’ word is ‘uvula’ which at first glance looks as if it should have something to do with eggs. In fact it is the name for that bit of wobbly flesh which dangles down at the back of your throat.

Sunday 20th April 2014 PREMIER LEAGUE Everton v Man Utd 22:10 Moyes faces his old club which is in pole position to claim the 4th Champions League spot, something Moyes only achieved once in his time at the club, and will not achieve at his new club this season. A defeat to Everton will no doubt increase the media noise about his position, but while he had an impossible act to follow, his transfer dealings in the summer and performance next season will determine his fate we believe. We can’t see Everton missing the chance to solidify their position, so we predict a home win.

golf turns ugly loudmouth golf fan gets it in the hole

augusta, usa

A man was fighting for his life last night after being seriously assaulted by a crowd of spectators on day three of the US Masters at Augusta. Phil Hamilton, 38, of Nutsack, Oregon was attacked in what police described as a ‘spontaneous, frenzied battering’ after shouting the words ‘get in the hole’ as Fred Couples chipped to the green at the 5th. Doctors have been battling to stabilise his condition after he underwent two emergency operations to repair a punctured lung and to remove an eight iron. Hazel Irvine, the BBC presenter, witnessed the incident as she prepared a live report for the broadcaster. “Everything was fine and peaceful. The ball landed at the edge of the green and started rolling. This man at the front of the crowd then shouted ‘get in the hole’ and looked around smugly to show how clever he’d been and to see where the TV mics were.”

“There was a brief pause and then all hell broke loose. People were screaming ‘I can’t take it any more,’ and ‘kill the moron, cut him, burn him,” she said. Korean player KJ Choi, who ended the day in joint second with eight under par, was spotted wading into the crowd and landing several wild haymakers on the victim. He later missed

an evening function as he drove to retrieve his club from the Augusta General Hospital. Experts have been trying to ascertain the cause of the disturbance. “You do get it in the animal kingdom, when a pack will suddenly turn on one of its own,” said one. “They may be seen as weak, or endangering the herd.” “What seems to have happened here is that a big group of people subconsciously and spontaneously perceived that the entire nature of human evolution was threatened by a man shouting ‘get in the hole’ at a golf event.” “In essence, they decided that he was too much of a danger to the human race to live.”
