tell AWOL what you think
hua hin, THAILAND Last week we ran an article about how tourism may be changing the face of Hua Hin, specifically how the locals and tourists interaction may be negatively effected. Some readers have made it known that they don’t agree with the article, without contacting us directly, and the purpose of this week’s front page is to encourage readers to do so, whether they agree, disagree, don’t care or have something they feel is worth sharing or looking into. When we first launched AWOL in October 2008, we always intended to have a ‘Letters To The Editor’ section, and indeed for a short time we printed the section; however we did not receive enough letters or emails to continue with it. We are sure that there are plenty of you out there with something to say, so we plan to reintroduce a Letters section in the next couple of months. Anything sent to us does not have to be directly related to AWOL or any story we run, but we would have to reserve the right to edit anything we publish for either space or content considerations, without materially altering whatever is being put across. Decisions on whether to publish a reader’s letter will be at our discretion, but will be based largely on how interesting it is but also on whether we can print it without legal issues, as the libel laws in Thailand are very strict. We will not print the full name of the reader submitting the letter unless specifically requested. While we will be happy to receive letters through the post (see page 17 for our office address), the quickest, cheapest and easiest way is to send an email to: submissions@awolonline.net

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 load of cobblers Nonsense, rubbish. This is a classic of Cockney rhyming slang. It has nothing directly to do with shoemakers but originates from ‘cobblers’ awls’, the pointed hand-tools that cobblers use to pierce holes in leather. The rhyme is with ‘balls’, meaning testicles. The phrase is often reduced to simply ‘cobblers’, which is now considered an acceptable vulgarism, as many may not be aware of its origin. ‘Cobblers’ sounds as though it might have been said by cheeky Victorian barrow boys in Dickens or similar. In fact, it isn’t as old as it might sound and wasn’t used until the mid 20th century. The earliest example found in print, bearing in mind that it probably existed as street slang for some time before printed versions appeared, is from Philip Allingham’s Cheapjack, his account of life amongst English market traders and fairground stall-holders, which was published in 1934:
The first example of the full phrase ‘a load of cobblers’ that can be found is from the British popular music magazine Melody Maker, October 1968: “Geno Washington says Grapefruit’s recent attack on the Maryland Club, Glasgow, was ‘a load of cobblers’. They are one of the best audiences in Britain, says Geno.”
Is there an English phrase or saying that you would like to know more about? Email it to us on submissions@awolonline.net
“The Cobbler is even more simple. It is a ball game..‘cobbler’ is the slang for ball.”
Are you tired, unhealthy, lacking vigour or overweight? Would you like to look and feel ten years younger?
A few months ago I joined the Unicity Program, not because I am a health freak (on the contrary, I love all the ‘bad’ stuff and still do) but because after trying their products I was healthier, happier, more vigorous and lost weight! Joining the Unicity Family has also enabled me to earn good money while also helping friends get the same benefits I have. A monthly income of ฿100,000 is easily achievable by building your own team, and over a thousand people are now millionaires, simply by offering health products that help people to a better, healthier life. Right now though, I have two special offers to help you look and feel better; ฿4,200 Offer 1: 4 week Interior Cleaning program Offer 2: 20 day Guaranteed weight loss program ฿7,940 (both offers include products, instructions and further information about Unicity) (If you suffer from diabetes, asthma, high cholesterol or high blood pressure, the interior cleaning program will greatly benefit your health.)

plane crash There were two Brits, Dave and John, whose plane crashed into a desert. Luckily they survived unharmed. As they travelled through the hot desert looking for food and water, they gave up and sat down, thinking of what to do. As the dust in the air settled, they spotted a mosque ahead. They became very hopeful. Dave said, “They might help us if they think we’re Muslims. I’m going to tell them my name is Mohammed.” But John said, “That’s ridiculous, I’m just going to tell them the truth.” They knocked on the door of the mosque, and were greeted by the Imam. “What are your names?” Dave said, ‘My name is Mohammed’, and John said ‘And I’m John’. The Imam said ‘Hello John, you poor man. My men will get you food and drink immediately.’ Then the Iman turned to Dave: “and Mohammed, happy Ramadan!”

Do you like to cook?
Is cooking your hobby? Is cooking a passion? Come and join us in our new Hua Hin Hobby Cooking Members group
The cooking sessions are once a month. Each member has a chance to host the group in their home and make dinner for them. There are no guidelines as far as what to cook, as long as the meal is homemade and they provide the recipes. Costs are shared and each member brings their own drinks. My idea was to regularly gather people who have the same passion; cooking. As there are many nationalities it will be exciting to discover new food cultures and to share recipes. A cooking group is also a social event; cooking together is fun and is an opportunity to make new friends. You do not need to be a chef in order to join the group. Whatever your level of cooking is, most important is that you like cooking, are open to new ideas and are prepared to participate regularly at the members’ cooking sessions. If you are interested in receiving more information you can email me at sikkens2011@gmail.com Robert

Mags Meanderings: From Som Tam To Mushy Peas
it is what it is, isn’t it? Imagine for a moment or two that you are a farang born in Thailand to English parents, and you have lived there ever since. Maybe your parents were missionaries - it doesn’t really matter how the situation came about. What matters is that you now have Thai citizenship. (This is after all fiction.) Your parents retained their Christian faith, and brought you up in that faith too. So although Thailand is your home, you went to school there, and speak the language fluently, you still retain the religious beliefs and cultural heritage instilled by your parents. You naturally feel a close connection with England, and keep in touch with extended family via social media, which also enabled you to make many friends over there. Some of those friends tell you that England is in a mess. Not only is the Church of England a man made usurper of the true faith, but there is now a threat from the Church of Scotland and its’ followers, who have gained a huge presence at the very heart of British government. Your friends plan to rid England of these infidels, by overthrowing the Church and eliminating the Scottish insurgents. They will achieve this by destroying a few churches, along with a World Heritage site - the Palace of Westminster - a double whammy which will also deal with the threat from Scottish MPs. They tell you that the fall of Westminster will actually benefit English tax
payers by saving the billions it would have cost to repair the already crumbling building. If you agree to help them you will live a life of luxury in Englands’ newly green and pleasant land. What have you got to lose? Thailand is nice but you still feel a bit like an outcast there. You will never convert to Buddhism, and the State won’t support you in your old age. You don’t believe what the BBC tells you about the situation in England - your friends know the truth, after all they live with it every day. So you decide to make the move for the greater good and the promise of a better life. Fiction of course, but if it were reality and you blew up a church or two, and helped to massacre hundreds of MPs, only to find that the dream of life in England had been a lie, would you expect to be able to flee back to Thailand? This week’s word is ‘henge’. A pre-historic monument consisting of a circle of stone or wooden uprights, as in the world famous Stonehenge in Wiltshire. Not to be outdone though Yorkshire now has a henge of it’s very own. Recently discovered near Hornsea, a coastal town not too far from Hull, ‘Hornsea Henge’ sadly no longer has standing stones, just buried remains, so won’t be suitable for Pagan festivals. Which will probably come as a huge relief to the local council.

Traces of FIFA found on 80 per cent of banknotes
switzerland FOUR in every five banknotes has been used for an illegal payment by FIFA, investigators have confirmed. Currencies from the euro to the dollar to the Angolan kwanza contain clear traces of FIFA’s sweaty fingers when illuminated under ultraviolet light. An FBI spokesman said: “Almost every note in your wallet has, at one time, been used in a multimillion dollar bribe between football federations, usually in squalid toilets. “When riffled through, the banknotes issue a whispering sound which, when amplified 100 times, says ‘It’s for the good of world football,’ and ‘they’re only opposing Qatar because they’re racist’.
Above: This wad of £10 notes was found by police investigating the FIFA corruption scandal when searching Chuck Blazer’s home.
“The historical figures that appear on the notes, from Egypt’s Rameses II to the UK’s Adam Smith, have all begun to resemble Sepp Blatter’s distinctive, ‘bummed turtle’ countenance. “And, if left sealed in a vault, they will begin to move very gradually toward Switzerland as if going home.” The fear is that people could become contaminated by the notes, with children being especially at risk; indeed there have already been several school incidents involving the awarding of tuck shop concessions, with complaints about having to travel to schools over ten miles away in order to buy a sherbet dip.
