Little things that are immensely satisfying

[Crisp Sandwich]

I was walking down a stairs in a train station this morning and an elderly little asian man stopped kind of suddenly and swung around, I was wondering what was up so kept an eye on him.. he flung his right foot up about 4 steps so he was doing something not far short of the splits uphill, and proceeded to tie his lace like that!

I'd say he was 5 feet max, and carrying a little pudge but had the flexibility of Jackie Chan, he must still be training daily - never judge a book by the cover and all that!

heh heh.. pretty much that!

Was he definitely Asian, Mange?

I very nearly made a faux pas with a girl that a buddy of mine was going out with years ago.

I was just about to ask what part of Asia she was from.

Then it dawned on me, she was just well-spoken and thin.

You cant say anything anymore so I went for Asian as a catch all - he had all of the physical attributes an elderly asian male might have but I didn't have time to interview the fella.. anyway, he'd have probably sprung around and Crane kicked the head off me in a flash

The ability to tie your shoe while doing the splits certainly qualifies

I thought so.. CrispY thinks he might have been a skinny, posh Irish ol' doll

A good pot of tea is lovely. I'm almost out of the good stuff. Barry's Loose Leaf. Of course.

I never mentioned anything about gender uncertainty in relation to your encounter, Mange - only ethnicity.

This is why you had such a weird time in Bangkok.
