Ah, that reminds me. During my last visit to Pattaya, prior to Christmas, I stayed at the Ambiance Hotel. One morning as I was leaving my room, three Indian lads emerged from the room next door.
The next day, downstairs at breakfast, the same three Indian lads sat at the table opposite me. We said our ‘good mornings’ and started up a short conversation. The lads were from Mumbai and recommended I visit their city. Then one guy surprised me by asking, ‘Have you met any nice girls yet?’ Taken somewhat aback, I replied in all honestly, ‘Er . . . no, not yet’.
