hua hin, THAILAND Among all the festivals and celebrations that occur every year in Thailand, Father’s Day here is probably the one which shows the biggest outpouring of emotion, and spawns the most events nationwide, because it is the day that Thai’s celebrate not only their own Dads, but the father of Thailand, His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej, who this year turns 88 years old.

Hua Hin, as the adopted permanent retreat of His Majesty, holds a special place in the hearts of all Thais, and thousands will come to the town to show their love and support for their monarch, in the hope that they can get a glimpse of him on this special day.

The actual day this year is tomorrow, Saturday 5th December, and one very special event planned in Hua Hin is the carving of a giant Buddha ice sculpture; award winning ice sculptor Alongkorn Timcharoen, of Hua Hin, said that he and six fellow ice artists would transform 99 blocks of ice into the planned world’s tallest Buddha ice statue, at 599 cm. It will be sculpted on open ground in front of Hua Hin railway station, between noon and 7pm, adding more colour to this year’s activities to celebrate His Majesty’s birthday. There will be a candlelight ceremony at the same location that night, among several other planned events there and around the town.

Roads will be busy anyway, as it is a long weekend with Monday a public holiday due to Father’s Day falling on a weekend, but no doubt the roads near the palace will be particularly busy, as it is the normal place people will congregate on this special day.

AWOL would like to take this opportunity to wish a Happy Father’s Day to all Dad’s out there, and special wishes to His Majesty the King as a father to his children and his country, and a very happy birthday too.

Capricorn Dec 22 - Jan 19 It’s not right to tell someone you could make a better bowl of chili with your asshole. Be the better person and show them how.

Aquarius Jan 20 – Feb 18 You will cry because you have no shoes, until you see one of those guys who wears fingerless gloves everywhere. Then you’ll think, Jesus Christ, at least you’re not that guy.

Pisces Feb 19 – Mar 20 The stars say to hold tight. Your life is about to undergo a dramatic change. Feel free to interpret that as a hopeful statement if you like.

ARIES Mar 21 - Apr 20 Remember, taking drugs is no way to be cool and have fun. Selling drugs is the way to be cool and have fun.

Taurus Apr 21 – May 21 There’s almost certainly a more efficient way to get through life, but by this point you’re pretty used to just following any old conga line that goes by.

Gemini May 22 – June 21 Someday you’ll find you’re no longer capable of working 60 hours a week just to scrape by, which is probably right when you’ll finally get a job.

Cancer Jun 22 – Jul 22 The stars aren’t sure what’s worse: that you keep insisting you’re the inspiration for the lizard in the insurance commercials, or that it’s true and you seem to take such pride in it.

Leo Jul 23 – Aug 22 The very heavens themselves shall bestow their benevolence upon you this week, allowing you to take 15 percent off selected entrées at a popular chain of restaurants.

Virgo Aug 23 – Sep 22 You were pretty sure your long, hellish ordeal was finally over, but it turns out it was renewed for another season and you still can’t stop watching it.

Libra Sep 23 – Oct 23 You will be instrumental in disproving several popular theories next week, including the ideas that laughter is good for the soul and that a little fresh air never hurt anyone.

Scorpio Oct 24 – Nov 21 A lot of people will be thinking about nothing but sex and violence all day, but you’re the only one doing something about it.

Sagittarius Nov 22 – Dec 21 The most difficult week of your life is coming up, but take heart: If you can get through that, you’ll have something to remember during the next 1,872 uniformly boring weeks of your life.

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..... Run rings around To easily outrun or outclass and opponent. ’Running rings around’ originated as an English hunting term. It was used by fox-hunters but more often by those indulging in hare-coursing, which is now banned in the UK. The circling runs made by the hare in its attempts to outrun the chasing greyhounds were called rings. The first person to refer in print to rings with that meaning was the Member of Parliament for Ipswich, William Churchill, in 1717: “Hunt circling Hares, or wily Foxes chase, Their mazy Rings, and fly Meanders trace.”

‘Running rings’ came a little later. The first example that can be found of the expression in print is in the hunting text Stable Talk and Table Talk, Charles Brindley, 1846: “Was it a bad scenting country, or were foxes scarce?”

He said, “Neither: but the foxes were apt to run rings.”

‘Running rings around’ is found later again, in the 1875 Coursing Calendar: Ace-of-Trumps was immensely her superior, making rings round her, and winning all one way.

The figurative use of the phrase, which refers to people being outwitted or outclassed rather than outrun, began

being used in the late 19th century. Several of these early uses come from Australia and New Zealand; for example, this piece from the New Zealand newspaper The Waikato Times, November 1880: Failing Mr Clark’s acceptance of the invitation to become a candidate [for election as Mayor], there are several other well-known citizens who could “run rings” around Mr Larkins.

The alternative form of the expression is ‘run circles around’, which came into being later again, around the turn of the 10th century. This form is entirely disassociated from the source hunting context and was coined in the USA and is still used there, whereas most other English-speaking countries prefer the original ;run rings’ version. An example of it is found in the New York newspaper The Syracuse Standard, July 1897: The speedy Herreshoff flyer... could run circles around any of the craft running between Clayton and the Bay. Is there an English phrase or saying that you would like to know more about?

inevitable In light of recent events in Syria concerning the Turks and Russians. I think we should prepare for the inevitable.

A movie about the Americans saving the world. eyebrows A man on his deathbed requested his wife, 3 sons, his nurse and a camera to be set up to record his final moments. Which were as follows...

“To my son, David, I leave the 2 blocks of flats in the East End of London. To my other son, Michael, I leave the 4 penthouses in Chelsea, and finally to my eldest son, Kevin, I leave the big glass building near Tower Bridge.”

With that he slipped away. The nurse turned to the wife and said, “I never realised your husband was so wealthy.

You and your sons are very lucky.”

His wife swiftly replied, “Was he hell! He was a bloody window cleaner!”

and back Mags Meanderings: From Som Tam To Mushy Peas life choices December 5th is a most auspicious day for Thailand, this year marking the 88th birthday of His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadeh. We join together in wishing His Majesty peace and happiness on his special day.

If you are on holiday in Hua Hin at the moment why not go along to His Majesties birthday celebration in the town, and join with the Thai people in paying your respects?

You will be welcomed at what is a very interesting and moving event.

Other, less auspicious anniversaries fall on December 4th. The opening of the first ever Burger King in Miami in 1954, and the very down to earth Vatican approval of the rhythm method of contraception in 1930.

Despite being as reliable as a chocolate tea pot, this ‘method’ remains the only form of contraception to be officially endorsed by the Catholic church. Although much later the pill did become recognised as a useful medication for women who suffer heavy or irregular periods, providing of course they don’t take advantage of this religious loop hole.

You would think that in the 21st century society in general would have become more accepting of womens’ rights to control pregnancy, yet just last week three people were killed by an armed man who stormed an abortion clinic in Colorado Springs. This kind of violent protest is far from rare, and the Colorado Springs clinic had already been moved to a high security building in an attempt to avoid attacks.

At time of writing the motives of the gunman still aren’t clear, but surely violence of any sort isn’t appropriate when used as a protest against terminating life? Even

more puzzling was news of a woman in the UK who, having decided that she didn’t want children, shared her decision to be sterilised on social media, with the intention of raising some sensible debate on the pros and cons of motherhood. Unfortunately the 29 year old succeeded in stirring up some quite vitriolic responses, including personal threats and accusations of insanity.

So much for social media. But what I find even more disturbing is the apparent reluctance of doctors to refer the woman for sterilisation. She alleges that of the six doctors she has approached with her request, just two of them referred her to the Marie Stopes clinic, a charity, which apparently didn’t have enough surgeons to carry out the procedure, even though the NHS would have funded it.

Having made the same decision as this woman, at about the same age, I know that back in the 1970’s elective female sterilisation could be controversial, especially for women who hadn’t already had children. But even then my own doctor was understanding and supportive, and referred me for NHS treatment. It was only the prospect of a two year waiting list which made me opt for private treatment, an option which this unfortunate woman can’t afford. And as controversial as it may have been at that time I certainly wasn’t alone in my decision, with friends also deciding that motherhood and the pill weren’t for them. We took control of our lives, and ensured that we would never have to face the dilemma of abortion.

So what has changed in the last 40 years which seems to make it so difficult for our NHS doctors and hospitals to put an end to unwanted pregnancies in the first place, and why are there still such violent objections to the only alternative some women have?

Whatever your thoughts, best not share them on Twitter!

Sunday 6th December 2015 PREMIER LEAGUE Soi 102, Hua Hin (200m on right after railway) Newcastle v Liverpool 23:00 You have to fear for the home side in this one as they face a confident, winning Reds team following an absolute pasting against Crystal Palace. The only things in their favour are that Liverpool will have faced a tough League Cup game against Southampton, and they are at home, but it looks more and more as if Steve McLaren and his team are destined for relegation.

We can’t see past a convincing Liverpool win here, and if that is the case, we are not sure McLaren will last much longer, especially given their fixtures over the next few weeks, which are all pretty tough. english premier league table 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20

hooray hooligans Tennis fans on Pimm’s rampage

great britain BRITISH tennis fans have run amok after the Davis Cup, downing jugs of winter Pimms and demanding plate after plate of olives.

The crowd returned from Belgium talking loudly about two men called Murray, a dead rubber and Britain being the best in the world at a sport, none of which made sense to bystanders.

Terrified employees at Waitrose in London St Pancras struggled to barricade the doors as they articulately demanded gin and upmarket snack foods.

Shop assistant Mary Fisher said: “They descended on the dip section like wild beasts, at first using kettle chips to scoop the humus, then just shovelling it in with their bare hands.

“We refused to serve a man in a salmon shirt because he’d clearly already had enough

Left: Belgians and Waitrose staff were left shocked and scared as the hordes of rampaging British tennis fans went on a Pimms picnic orgy

Manchego but he just lost it and necked a whole pack of antipasti right there in front of us.”

“They stripped the shelves of liqueurs and

prosciutto before heading off to the deli down the road. I suppose tennis just makes some people do crazy stuff.”

Another assistant, David Morgan, said, “It’s so much better when you get Chelsea or Manchester United fans in, as they just go straight to the ready made sandwiches and clear us out of anything with prawn in it.”

Tennis fan Martin Bishop said: “When you’re buzzing off a tennis tournament like that, the picnicking instinct just takes over. You have to picnic and God help whoever gets in your way.”
