Speaking pots and pans

Ever wondered how the Thai people ever got their language? The ancient Thai king must have been a chef... working around pots and pans, surely he would hear them drop so therefore he came up with a language for his people... the people who speak like clanging pots and pans!

Went to Golden Mile today to buy some Muay Thai Boxing oilment... entering into the run-down, shabby looking shopping centre was a nightmare! With Thai workers all around you trying to enter the building.
The rancid smell of "don't know whatever shit" will be a remembered for a long time... Finding my way around the mall was like trying to go through a shopping centre that is offering freebies for 'Kiasu' Singaporeans... it was PACKED!!! and i really mean packed! like a can of sardines!
I was transported to Malaysia all of a sudden! with all the people speaking in an unknown language.
People coming up to me saying "rong pin pong tang... rang poon prat da toom"
All i did was smile and carrying on walking...

Just to find some bottle of Boxing Oilment for my legs that have been injured, the oilment is supposedly to have special healing properties that heals the legs faster.

Seeing half-drunk Thai workers drinking "Black Cat Whisky" and "Singha Beer" was an experience not to be forgotten...
There is Little India for the Blanga workers... Lucky Plaza for the Philippino maids...
Smelly, gross and packed Golden mile for the Thai workers...

PS: I did get the oilment after all... after some "prat pong ting tong tang, pete pong dang ting tang"
